If you want today’s headlines you’ll have to tune in to 710-KIRO this morning, where I’ll be filling in for Dave Ross from 9AM to Noon, bringing drive-by liberal propaganda to the masses.
9:00 AM: Are the elderly too old to know better?
The elderly have long been a juicy target for scam artists and “legitimate” salesmen alike, now families are fighting back with civil suits seeking to void legal contracts and other transactions, even those made without intimidation or deception. Should the elderly be treated like adolescents, who are not fully responsible for their decisions? Or should the elderly be held accountable for their own financial blunders, whatever the ultimate cost?
10AM: Are your tots toys toxic?
Millions of kids will eagerly rip the wrapping paper off their Christmas gifts tomorrow morning, but how many will come away with lead and other toxins on their hands? According to a series of free tests conducted by WA-08 challenger Darcy Burner, about 10-percent of toys and other children’s products contain lead above safe levels. Burner joins us by phone to discuss her findings, and talk about what Congress needs to do to address this growing problem.
11AM: Christians who don’t celebrate Christmas? Reverse shopping?
Tune in (or listen to the live stream) and give me a call: 1-877-710-KIRO (5476).

Unfortunately the elderly don’t know better. As they do in nursing homes at election time:
“Erma, here let me help your fill out your voter ballot. No you can’t vote for them. They are war mongers. Here, we need this good progressive in this seat.”
Surely you remember when Puddy used this example:

Puddybud spews:
Goldy: Ask Darcy Moonbat! to join you and ask why Mattel/FIsher Price moved their manufacturing overseas to China and other locations killing great manufacturing jobs for middle class Americans. ~65% of their toys are manufactured in China yet Mattel didn’t have their own toy quality control testing system until earlier this year.
Ask why this cheap labor liberal company invests in poisoning our children. If you ask her these questions I’ll stop by and listen.

PSilly the demented,
That seems to be happening on the local level in tight races for city council and what not. It’s appears to be a tactic of desperation by candidates or political machines.
If you’re trying to imply it’s some kind of practice approved by the national Democratic party, you’re insane. Well everyone here knows that already.
My view is that it’s a tragedy when an American wants to vote and can’t because of hoops designed by Republicans or some infirmity.
An elderly voter should be able to get some assistance if needed to participate in our democracy.
I don’t know maybe the churches could assist. They would respect the wishes of the elderly voter wouldn’t they?
So Psilly, let’s say you volunteered to help an elderly woman vote. A woman who has dreamed her whole life of voting for a smart woman for President. You would mark down a vote for Hillary for that elderly voter, wouldn’t you?
YLB spews:
why Mattel/FIsher Price moved their manufacturing overseas to China and other locations killing great manufacturing jobs for middle class Americans.
Maybe their competitors were doing it?
Mr “$51,250” – that’s the amount a company (Mattel in this case) has to give more to Dems than to R’s to make PSilly froth at the mouth. Not that they didn’t give plenty of money to the R’s.
Probably $1 would do just as well.

Hometown hates the homeboy, and so do we.
The Associated Press recently reported Al Gore has finished the “green” modifications on his Belle Meade mansion. After all that work, he has managed to reduce his energy consumption by an anemic 11 percent. That still puts him at over 10 times the amount of monthly usage compared to the average Nashville home.
Ironically, Gore uses those CFLs in his home. According to a comparison of NES bills, Al and Tipper use almost four times the power my family of five uses; yet, their home got the Green Building Council’s gold certification, and mine didn’t. Of course, Mr. Gore has a company set up where he can pay himself carbon offsets to clear his conscience.
It seems the underlying theme of radical environmentalism is sacrifice. They genuflect at the altar of self-immolation while the rest of us celebrate having climbed to the top of the technological food chain. While we marvel at our advanced civilization, they cram into their hybrids to go lobby Congress, all the while claiming to be “progressive.” News flash: Dimmer lights and less-safe automobiles are not progress.
Re dumbdarcy, bubba,toys? give me a fucking break. DD, get your pimp to find you a REAL job, or a REAL cause to champion. How about getting the bums out of Seattle and into JOBS? How about raising money for St Judes and Childrens hospital? How about loviong care centers for abandoned brats like yours?
How about getting a voice coach, a personal trainer, a wardrobe consultant…
OR HOW ABOUT WORKING AT THE “JOB” YOU SUPPOSEDLY CHOSE WITH GLEE: MOMMY
Of course it doesn’t feed the attention monster ego the way a phony ‘toy crisis’ does.
Keep on whoring for your pimp-er-goldie.

“The goal of the left is the liberation of mankind from traditional institutions and codes of behavior, especially moral codes. It seeks a restoration (or achievement) of a state of nature, one of absolute individual liberty–universal happiness without the need for laws. The proposed political way stations chosen by the left in its drive toward this vision have [included]: abolition of private property (socialism); prohibition of Christianity and/or propagation by the political elite of a new civil religion to replace it; confiscatory taxation, especially at death; regulation of political speech to limit the ability of certain individuals or classes to affect politics; the takeover of education to instill new values and moral habits in the population; confiscation of privately held firearms; gradual phasing out of the nation-state; displacement of the traditional family in favor of child-rearing by an enlightened governmental elite; and the inversion of sexual morality to elevate recreational sex and reduce the prestige of procreative sex.”

Puddy –
Merry christmas – now stop ranting with your foolish and pathetic “liberal” criticisms that hold no water.
Gee- Mattel is liberal because.. you say so. They are headuqartered in California where all of the Senators are…hmm, Democrats. So they give a paltry sum more to Dems than republicans.
Once again you miss the real issue:
Republicans (by definition) favor less government and less regulations. In this case, less government and less regulation by the CPSC (consumer procucts safety commission) means one employee for the whole country and no penalties for introducing toxins into kids toys.
The free market and free trade is not working here – and our government is supposed to protect us. But bush has dismantled the government protections and this is what we get.
Another example of letting the fox guard the henhouse – letting Weyerhauser hire their own geologist to certify steep slopes safe for clearcutting – and we get the predictable floods downstream.
Free market doesn’t work alone. Eake up and smell the roses – Europe and Canada have economies that are doing just fine with government planning. this works much better than short term profits for the wall street bankers that you love to support.
Puddybud spews:
Goober: I never answered you. You project answers because liberalism is a mental disorder. I discussed mentally incapacitated people, that’s all. The elderly person who wants Hilary would need help. It wouldn’t come from me. But Someone else would help them and I’d oversee it.

SHEEP, WOLVES AND SHEEPDOGS:
THIS LETTER WAS WRITTEN BY CHARLES GRENNEL AND HIS COMRADES,
VETERANS OF THE GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR. GRENNEL IS AN ARMY RESERVIST
WHO SPENT TWO YEARS IN IRAQ AND WAS A PRINCIPAL IN PUTTING TOGETHER
THE FIRST IRAQ ELECTIONS IN JANUARY 2005. IT WAS WRITTEN TO JILL
EDWARDS, STUDENT AT THE UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON, WHO DID NOT WANT TO HONOR MEDAL OF HONOR WINNER USMC COLONEL GREG “PAPPY” BOYINGTON. MS. EDWARDS AND OTHER STUDENTS AND FACULTY DO NOT THINK THOSE WHO SERVE IN THE U.S. ARMED SERVICES ARE WORTHY AS GOOD ROLE MODELS.
TO: JILL EDWARDS, STUDENT, C /O UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON
SUBJECT: SHEEP, WOLVES AND SHEEPDOGS
MISS EDWARDS, I READ OF YOUR STUDENT ACTIVITY REGARDING THE
PROPOSED MEMORIAL TO COLONEL GREG BOYINGTON, USMC AND A MEDAL OF HONOR WINNER. I SUSPECT YOU WILL RECEIVE MANY ANGRY EMAILS FROM CONSERVATIVE PEOPLE LIKE ME. YOU MAY BE TOO YOUNG TO APPRECIATE FULLY THE SACRIFICES OF GENERATIONS OF SERVICEMEN AND SERVICEWOMEN, ON WHOSE SHOULDERS YOU AND YOUR FELLOW STUDENTS STAND. I FORGIVE YOU FOR THE UNTUTORED WAYS OF YOUTH AND YOUR NAIVETE. IT MAY BE THAT YOU ARE SIMPLY A SHEEP. THERE\’S NO DISHONOR IN BEING A SHEEP, AS LONG AS YOU KNOW AND ACCEPT WHAT YOU ARE.
WILLIAM J. BENNETT, IN A LECTURE TO THE UNITED STATES NAVAL ACADEMY
NOVEMBER 24, 1997 SAID, “MOST OF THE PEOPLE IN OUR SOCIETY ARE SHEEP.
THEY ARE KIND, GENTLE, PRODUCTIVE CREATURES WHO CAN ONLY HURT ONE
ANOTHER BY ACCIDENT. WE MAY WELL BE IN THE MOST VIOLENT TIMES IN HISTORY, BUT VIOLENCE IS STILL REMARKABLY RARE. THIS IS BECAUSE MOST CITIZENS ARE KIND, DECENT PEOPLE, NOT CAPABLE OF HURTING EACH OTHER EXCEPT BY ACCIDENT OR UNDER EXTREME PROVOCATION. THEY ARE SHEEP.”
THEN THERE ARE THE WOLVES WHO FEED ON THE SHEEP WITHOUT MERCY. DO YOU BELIEVE THERE ARE WOLVES OUT THERE WHO WILL FEED ON THE FLOCK WITHOUT MERCY? YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT. THERE ARE EVIL MEN IN THIS WORLD AND THEY ARE CAPABLE OF EVIL DEEDS. THE MOMENT YOU FORGET THAT OR PRETEND IT IS NOT SO, YOU BECOME A SHEEP. THERE IS NO SAFETY IN DENIAL.
THEN THERE ARE SHEEPDOGS AND I’M A SHEEPDOG. I LIVE TO PROTECT THE FLOCK AND CONFRONT THE WOLF. IF YOU HAVE NO CAPACITY FOR VIOLENCE AND YOU ARE A HEALTHY PRODUCTIVE CITIZEN, YOU ARE A SHEEP. IF YOU HAVE A CAPACITY FOR VIOLENCE AND NO EMPATHY FOR YOUR FELLOW CITIZENS, THEN YOU HAVE DEFINED AN AGGRESSIVE SOCIOPATH, A WOLF. BUT WHAT IF YOU HAVE A CAPACITY FOR VIOLENCE, AND A DEEP LOVE FOR YOUR FELLOW CITIZENS? WHAT DO YOU HAVE THEN? A SHEEPDOG, A WARRIOR, SOMEONE WHO IS WALKING THE UNCHARTED PATH. SOMEONE WHO CAN WALK INTO THE HEART OF DARKNESS, INTO THE UNIVERSAL HUMAN PHOBIA, AND WALK OUT UNSCATHED.
WE KNOW THAT THE SHEEP LIVE IN DENIAL, WHICH IS WHAT MAKES THEM SHEEP. THEY DO NOT WANT TO BELIEVE THAT THERE IS EVIL IN THE WORLD.THEY CAN ACCEPT THE FACT THAT FIRES CAN HAPPEN, WHICH IS WHY THEY WANT FIRE EXTINGUISHERS, FIRE SPRINKLERS, FIRE ALARMS AND FIRE EXITS THROUGHOUT THEIR KID\’S SCHOOLS. BUT MANY OF THEM ARE OUTRAGED AT THE IDEA OF PUTTING AN ARMED POLICE OFFICER IN THEIR KID\’S SCHOOL. OUR CHILDREN ARE THOUSANDS OF TIMES MORE LIKELY TO BE KILLED OR SERIOUSLY INJURED BY SCHOOL VIOLENCE THAN FIRE, BUT THE SHEEP\’S ONLY RESPONSE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF VIOLENCE IS DENIAL. THE IDEA OF SOMEONE COMING TO KILL OR HARM THEIR CHILD IS JUST TOO HARD. SO THEY CHOOSE THE PATH OF DENIAL.THE SHEEP GENERALLY DO NOT LIKE THE SHEEP DOG. HE LOOKS A LOT LIKE THE WOLF. HE HAS FANGS AND THE CAPACITY FOR VIOLENCE. THE DIFFERENCE, THOUGH, IS THAT THE SHEEPDOG MUST NOT, CANNOT AND WILL NOT EVER HARM THE SHEEP. ANY SHEEPDOG THAT INTENTIONALLY HARMS THE LOWLIEST LITTLE LAMB WILL BE PUNISHED AND REMOVED. THE WORLD CANNOT WORK ANY OTHER WAY, AT LEAST NOT IN A REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY OR A REPUBLIC SUCH AS OURS. STILL, THE SHEEPDOG DISTURBS THE SHEEP. HE IS A CONSTANT REMINDER THAT THERE ARE WOLVES IN THE LAND. THEY WOULD PREFER THAT HE DIDN’T TELL THEM WHERE TO GO, OR GIVE THEM TRAFFIC TICKETS, OR STAND AT THE READY IN OUR AIRPORTS, IN CAMOUFLAGE FATIGUES, HOLDING AN M-16. THE SHEEP WOULD MUCH RATHER HAVE THE SHEEPDOG CASH IN HIS FANGS, SPRAY PAINT HIMSELF WHITE, AND GO BAA. THAT IS, UNTIL THE WOLF SHOWS UP, AND THEN THE ENTIRE FLOCK TRY DESPERATELY TO HIDE BEHIND ONE LONELY SHEEPDOG.
THE STUDENTS, THE VICTIMS, AT COLUMBINE HIGH SCHOOL WERE BIG, TOUGH, KNOW-IT-ALL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS, AND UNDER ORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES WOULD NOT HAVE HAD THE TIME OF DAY FOR A POLICE OFFICER. THEY WERE NOT BAD KIDS; THEY JUST HAD NOTHING TO SAY TO A COP. WHEN THE SCHOOL WAS UNDER ATTACK, HOWEVER, AND SWAT TEAMS WERE CLEARING THE ROOMS AND HALLWAYS, THE OFFICERS HAD TO PHYSICALLY PEEL THOSE CLINGING, SOBBING KIDS OFF OF THEM. THIS IS HOW THE LITTLE LAMBS FEEL ABOUT THEIR SHEEPDOG WHEN THE WOLF IS AT THE DOOR. LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED AFTER SEPTEMBER 11, 2001
WHEN THE WOLF POUNDED HARD ON THE DOOR. REMEMBER HOW AMERICA, MORE THAN EVER BEFORE, FELT DIFFERENTLY ABOUT THEIR LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS AND MILITARY PERSONNEL? UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS NOTHING MORALLY SUPERIOR ABOUT BEING A SHEEPDOG; IT IS JUST WHAT YOU CHOOSE TO BE.ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT A SHEEPDOG IS A FUNNY CRITTER. HE IS ALWAYS SNIFFING AROUND OUT ON THE PERIMETER, CHECKING THE BREEZE, BARKING AT THINGS THAT GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT AND YEARNING FOR A RIGHTEOUS BATTLE. THAT IS, THE YOUNG SHEEPDOGS YEARN FOR A RIGHTEOUS BATTLE. THE OLD SHEEPDOGS ARE A LITTLE OLDER AND WISER, BUT THEY MOVE TO THE SOUND OF THE GUNS WHEN NEEDED, RIGHT ALONG WITH THE YOUNG ONES. HERE IS HOW THE SHEEP AND THE SHEEPDOG THINK DIFFERENTLY. THE SHEEP PRETEND THE WOLF WILL NEVER COME, BUT THE SHEEPDOG LIVES FOR THAT DAY.
AFTER THE ATTACKS ON SEPTEMBER 11, 2001, MOST OF THE SHEEP, THAT IS, MOST CITIZENS IN AMERICA SAID, “THANK GOD I WASN’T ON ONE OF THOSE PLANES.” THE SHEEPDOGS, THE WARRIORS, SAID, “DEAR GOD, I WISH I COULD HAVE BEEN ON ONE OF THOSE PLANES. MAYBE I COULD HAVE MADE A DIFFERENCE.” YOU WANT TO BE ABLE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE. THERE IS NOTHING MORALLY SUPERIOR ABOUT THE SHEEPDOG, THE WARRIOR, BUT HE DOES HAVE ONE REAL ADVANTAGE. ONLY ONE. AND THAT IS THAT HE IS ABLE TO SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN AN ENVIRONMENT THAT WOULD DESTROY 98 PERCENT OF THE POPULATION.
RESEARCH WAS CONDUCTED A FEW YEARS AGO WITH INDIVIDUALS CONVICTED OF VIOLENT CRIMES. THESE CONS WERE IN PRISON FOR SERIOUS, PREDATORY CRIMES OF VIOLENCE: ASSAULTS, MURDERS AND KILLING LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS. THE VAST MAJORITY SAID THEY SPECIFICALLY TARGETED VICTIMS BY BODY LANGUAGE: SLUMPED WALK, PASSIVE BEHAVIOR AND LACK OF AWARENESS. THEY CHOSE THEIR VICTIMS LIKE BIG CATS DO IN AFRICA, WHEN THEY SELECT ONE OUT OF THE HERD THAT IS LEAST ABLE TO PROTECT ITSELF. SOME PEOPLE MAY BE DESTINED TO BE SHEEP AND OTHERS MIGHT BE GENETICALLY PRIMED TO BE WOLVES OR SHEEPDOGS. BUT I BELIEVE THAT MOST PEOPLE CAN CHOOSE WHICH ONE THEY WANT TO BE, AND I’M PROUD TO SAY THAT MORE AND MORE AMERICANS ARE CHOOSING TO BECOME SHEEPDOGS. SEVEN MONTHS AFTER THE ATTACK ON SEPTEMBER 11, 2001, TODD BEAMER WAS HONORED IN HIS HOMETOWN OF CRANBURY, NEW JERSEY. TODD, AS YOU RECALL, WAS THE MAN ON FLIGHT 93 OVER PENNSYLVANIA WHO CALLED ON HIS CELL PHONE TO ALERT AN OPERATOR FROM UNITED AIRLINES ABOUT THE HIJACKING. WHEN THEY LEARNED OF THE OTHER THREE PASSENGER PLANES THAT HAD BEEN USED AS WEAPONS, TODD AND THE OTHER PASSENGERS CONFRONTED THE TERRORIST HIJACKERS. IN ONE HOUR, A TRANSFORMATION OCCURRED AMONG THE PASSENGERS – ATHLETES, BUSINESS PEOPLE AND PARENTS – FROM SHEEP TO SHEEPDOGS AND TOGETHER THEY FOUGHT THE WOLVES, ULTIMATELY SAVING AN UNKNOWN NUMBER OF LIVES ON THE GROUND.
EDMUND BURKE SAID, “THERE IS NO SAFETY FOR HONEST MEN EXCEPT BY BELIEVING ALL POSSIBLE EVIL OF EVIL MEN.” HERE IS THE POINT I WANT TO EMPHASIZE, ESPECIALLY TO THE THOUSANDS OF POLICE OFFICERS AND SOLDIERS I SPEAK TO EACH YEAR. IN NATURE THE SHEEP, REAL SHEEP, ARE BORN AS SHEEP. SHEEPDOGS ARE BORN THAT WAY, AND SO ARE WOLVES. THEY DON’T HAVE A CHOICE. BUT YOU ARE NOT A CRITTER. AS A HUMAN BEING, YOU CAN BE WHATEVER YOU WANT TO BE. IT IS A CONSCIOUS, MORAL DECISION.
IF YOU WANT TO BE A SHEEP, THEN YOU CAN BE A SHEEP AND THAT IS OKAY, BUT YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THE PRICE YOU PAY. WHEN THE WOLF COMES, YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES ARE GOING TO DIE IF THERE IS NOT A SHEEPDOG THERE TO PROTECT YOU. IF YOU WANT TO BE A WOLF, YOU CAN BE ONE, BUT THE SHEEPDOGS ARE GOING TO HUNT YOU DOWN AND YOU WILL NEVER HAVE REST, SAFETY, TRUST OR LOVE. BUT IF YOU WANT TO BE A SHEEPDOG AND WALK THE WARRIOR’S PATH, THEN YOU MUST MAKE A CONSCIOUS AND MORAL DECISION EVERY DAY TO DEDICATE, EQUIP AND PREPARE YOURSELF TO THRIVE IN THAT TOXIC, CORROSIVE MOMENT WHEN THE WOLF COMES KNOCKING AT THE DOOR.
THIS BUSINESS OF BEING A SHEEP OR A SHEEPDOG IS NOT A YES-NO
DICHOTOMY. IT IS NOT AN ALL-OR-NOTHING, EITHER-OR CHOICE. IT IS A MATTER OF DEGREES, A CONTINUUM. ON ONE END IS AN ABJECT, HEAD-IN-THE-SAND-SHEEP AND ON THE OTHER END IS THE ULTIMATE WARRIOR.

JUST LIKE THE SHEEPDOG, WE IN THE MILITARY JUST NEED A SMALL PAT ON THE HEAD, A SMILE AND A THANK YOU TO FILL THE EMOTIONAL TANK WHICH IS DRAINED PROTECTING THE SHEEP.AND, WHEN OUR NUMBER IS CALLED BY THE ALMIGHTY, AND DAY RETREATS INTO NIGHT, A SMALL PRAYER BEFORE THE HEAVENS JUST MAY BE IN ORDER TO SAY THANKS FOR LETTING YOU CONTINUE TO BE A SHEEP.

I put that table into a spreadsheet and separated the d’s from the r’s
I get 108K for the D’s and 61,750 for the R’s. Forget 51,250. It’s $46,250. That’s a 1.75 ratio.
I’ll give you a chance to add to that before I call the classic PStupid Right Wing Bullshit.

Roger Rabbit spews:
I just want to remind all of you unpatriotic troop-hating anti-American fascist fuckwads that your guy “won” the last presidential election by blocking the military vote:
“A confidential campaign directed by GOP party chiefs in October 2004 sought to challenge the ballots of tens of thousands of voters in the last presidential election ….
“One group of voters wrongly identified by the Republicans as registering to vote from false addresses: servicemen and women sent overseas.
“Here’s how the scheme worked: The RNC mailed these voters letters in envelopes marked, ‘Do not forward’, to be returned to the sender. These letters were mailed to servicemen and women, some stationed overseas, to their US home addresses. The letters then returned to the Bush-Cheney campaign as ‘undeliverable.’ The lists of soldiers of ‘undeliverable’ letters were transmitted from state headquarters … to the RNC in Washington. The party could then challenge the voters’ registration and thereby prevent their absentee ballots being counted.
“One target list was comprised exclusively of voters registered at the Jacksonville, Florida, Naval Air Station. … [See this scrub sheet at http://flickr.com/photo_zoom.g.....038;size=o ] …
“A soldier returning home in time to vote in November 2004 could also be challenged on the basis of the returned envelope. …
“The Republican National Committee in Washington refused … to respond to the BBC discovery. … The party … refused to say why it would mark soldiers as having ‘bad addresses’ subject to challenge when they had been assigned abroad. … Setting up such a challenge list [is] a crime under federal law. …
“Soldiers sending in their ballot from abroad would not know their vote was lost because of a challenge.”

“While “Happy Holidays” is a greeting intended to appeal to everyone, retailers’ efforts to avoid offending anyone may have backfired. More than half of those polled (51%) said they are bothered by store clerks who greet customers with “Happy Holidays” in an effort to help stores be politically correct. For some shoppers, a clerk who says “Happy Holidays” might as well be saying “Don’t shop here” – 36% say they have avoided shopping at a store or have cut their visit short after being greeted with a “Happy Holidays” instead of a “Merry Christmas.” That figure jumps to 41% for weekly Wal-Mart shoppers and 42% for those older than 65.”

Sure must be hell hating people 24/7. Did one butt fuck you helpless loosie? Is that why you hate them 24/7? You never told us.
One last thing Clueless Goober, I need to correct something. Since I am not sure when you said shut up, I have to determine when Piper appeared on HorsesASSHoles with his first pithy comment. Then I search forward.

You see Clueless Goober, normally your rants are insignificant. But this time you said something Puddy remembered. As I post link after link of things I remember I shall find it god willing.
For instance Clueless Goober here are three examples:
Remember the link where Goldy went nuts of Dino Rossi and his reelection campaign getting funds in before a certain? I posted a 2006 link of Fraudoire trolling for reelection donations waaaaaaaaaay before reelection time.
Remember the I900 fray? Well I posted what Brian Sonntag spoke about I900 and how I900 nails the Port of Seattle if they choose to do nothing.
Remember Seminole and Martin Counties in Florida and Gore trying to remove over 15,000 absentee ballots from their being counted in 2000. Puddy remembered the Gore lawsuit and posted it here.

Ok let’s turn out attention to this lump of coal authored by our resident village idiot (Puddybud):
http://www.horsesass.org/?p=3310#comment-683020
First Mr “my word is my bond” does this:
It’s a story about illegal political contributions from Mattel. But when you follow the link, it says this:
There’s no breakdown of the giving between D’s and R’s. Nice try.
Then our favorite village idiot does this:
How much more? Who are “moonbats”? Blue dog Dems like Jane Harman? No our favorite loony just hates anything with a “D” next to it. I digress.
I put the figures for Mattel’s giving into a spreadsheet and sorted and subtotaled by Party.
For 2004 I get:
$22,681 given by Mattel Execs and employees to the Mattel PAC which is doled out evenly to D’s and R’s. (That factoid is discussed here by Richard Pope in comment 24 and confirmed by Puddybud in comment 27.)
14,975 given to Dems. $2,250 given directly to Republicans.
For a grand total of 39,906.00 with 26,306.50 going to the Dems and 13,600.50 going to Republicans. A 2 to 1 ratio of D to R giving. Republicans must be bad for the toy business.
We’re not done yet. For 2006 we have:
$32,571 given to the Mattel PAC
$509.00 given to Dems
$550.00 given to Republicans
2006 is easy. Almost dead-even with $41 more dollars to the Republicans. Puddy was WRONG about more money going to Dems in the 2006 Election cycle.
So the total amount of Mattel Exec and Employee giving to D’s over R’s over 2, 2 year election cycles is (drum roll)
Approx 13 grand. BIG WHUP!!!! 13 grand means a lot of “moonbat” love to our paranoid village idiot.
Quoting Richard Pope:
“The company is headquartered in California, and seems to be the type that prefers to give to incumbents. California has two Democratic senators and a fairly heavily Democratic U.S. House delegation.”
Why shouldn’t they give a little more to Dems? Moreover, Puddybud provides NO PROOF that the modest amount they gave more to Dems resulted in any kind of cover for their offshoring and the shoddy manufacturing practices of their asian suppliers.
Zip. Nada.. Nothing…

This is why Clueless Goober is Clueless Goober
Fermin Cuza ex CEO – $5,500 Democrats $000 Republicans

If he didn’t give to Republicans what about the other laundering accounts Clueless Goober?
You are naturally stupid. I give you the links and you can’t get the data.

YLB spews:
PBlowhard,
Where’s the backup for your figures?
I went to the website you cited, campaignmoney.com. I looked at 2004 and 2006 like you stated in the post. I find 13k difference, big whup!
The customscorruption article YOU CITED does not back up anything you say. I see a bulk figure with no breakdown between D’s and R’s. Where’s the breakdown? The article says money was given to BOTH D’s and R’s. I believe it. Between you and Pope, I see equal giving across the parties from the PAC and only a $46,250 difference between the parties since 1998.
Pope who you praised seems to think Mattel was a minor player in political contributions and the campaignmoney site and his FEC contributions page back that up.
Come up with some coherent links where I can fact check you.
You fancy yourself a great debater. Back up your assertions.
Are you afraid?
So far I conclude yes. You can’t find any bullshit links about me telling trolls to shut up or accepting a nonsense challenge from you yet you claim to have information at the tips of your fingers about Mattel and you’re not forthcoming.
C’mon great debater, let’s see the evidence. A good debater shows his backup like I did.
The bottom line is you offer NO PROOF that Mattel giving more to Dems meant more lax regulation of toys and made it easier for them to offshore. We’ve had wingnut Congresses for most of Bush’s term in office and in my view, those practices only accelerated under those Congresses and this White House.
It’s a shoddy argument you’re serving up. You haven’t made any connections from Mattel giving to Dems and toxic substances in their products.
When I ask for facts and sources, I get a blizzard of numbers and a lot of name-calling.
YLB spews:

There are at least three other sites I know about. I posted each of them. But you chose to ignore Puddy information, calling them rants. Well find them yourself smartass!
Puddybud spews:
Then there is this:
Puddy: I remember For the Clueless (remember him) who said he doesn’t read my ‘filth”.
YLB: I think you’re referring to Rupert Murdoch’s Faux News smut.
Unfortunately for you Clueless Goober, you were not For the Clueless when this appeared in 2007.
Good trick lie and twisting of facts.
Puddybud spews:
So Clueless Goober, the only thing a thinking HorsesASSer can conclude is you are clueless to facts.
I will not repost links. Search the site like I am for your shut up comments. I found one so far.
Goodbye.
YLB spews:
They are part of Mattel.
Not now. They owned Learning Co from May 1999 to Oct 2000.
You quote contributions from Learning Co from 2002.
They were owned at that time by Riverdeep.

This noise is not helping you Puddy.

Clueless Goober
For 2004
democrat $27,000 Republican $8,000
Total 2004+2006
democrat $62,000 Republican $20,000
Now Clueless Goober what did I say the ration was earlier?
3X right? Now when you add 2000 & 2002 contributions where do we go?
Puddybud spews:
Clueless Goober what noise?
Again another canard from your mind.
I posted it from the FEC. What a chump you are Clueless Goober.
Everything I have posted today and before is from the FEC. If they are wrong go inspect it.
Now back to 2004 and 2006 contributions again your lies in post #87 are BUSTED you CHUMP.
Puddybud spews:
2002: $1K to Jane Harman
So it’s now $63K to $20K.
YLB spews:
113 – Bzzzt you lose. I already mentioned I told Fireman to put or shutup and I said it wasn’t the same thing.
Put or shut up is a challenge. I challenged the fireman to prove that Goldy stole a union man’s job or shut up saying Goldy is a scab. That’s another guy who just calls names for bullshit reasons. Why is that a problem with right wingers?
You said I said “Shut up Pooper” or “Shut up Doofus”. Sorry, keep looking.
And don’t forget the bullshit challenge to stay away from Kos or Media Matters.
Puddybud spews:
For 1999 & 2000 it was
$9000 democrat $2,250 Republican.
Now this is $72,000 and $22,250 Republican.
Clueless Goober I used your site. It found $2000 more for Republicans
What is the ratio here? 3.24X What did I write before Clueless Goober?
Puddybud spews:
Clueless Goober: We already went over the Daily Kos and Media Matters before. Go back and see what you originally said. That is not part of the agreement. And I am not going to repost that answer either. Perform your own dd.
FAUX Jedi Mind tricks do not work on Puddy.
YLB spews:
what noise?
Learning Co. Mattel didn’t own them in 2002.
Who cares what they gave anyway? Prove their giving practices poisoned anybody or cost an American their job.
YLB spews:
120 – Hey, it’s you who spouts your mouth off about it. Prove you challenged me to that.
Are you a liar?
YLB spews:
I remember For the Clueless (remember him) who said he doesn’t read my ‘filth”
Got any proof of that?
1) You haven’t proved I told Pooper or Doofus to “shut up”.
2) You haven’t proved I accepted a challenged to stay away from Kos or MM.
3) Now you just spout about reading your “filth” – no proof again.
How can anyone believe anything from you?
YLB spews:
122 – Excuse me, prove I accepted a challenge.
YLB spews:
Bottom line Puddy:
You’ve been ranting about Mattel for months like you did about the Gorelick wall. People almost totally ignored you.
Now I’m paying attention and I am insisting you back it up.
Here’s your chance to show the courage of your convictions.
Line up all the giving Mattel did to D’s and R’s from 1996 to present. Subtotal by D and R. Provide links to your sources so I can fact check.
What are the grand totals and the total delta between the giving to the parties? So far I’m not convinced it’s all that far apart. You keep throwing out numbers with nothing to back them up.
Take it a step further. PROVE this difference in political giving resulted in lost American jobs and toxic substances in toys.
You say you have the figures and sources at your fingertips. This shouldn’t be hard for you.
YLB spews:
Jane Harman marches in lockstep with Bush on wiretapping and has authored a scary bill on domestic terrorism.
She marched so closely, Pelosi wouldn’t appoint her to head the House Intelligence Committee.
I’d think she leans more to your side of the aisle on a lot of issues.
Puddybud spews:
Clueless Goober: You just agreed to the filth question above.
Too bad stupid.
YLB spews:
I used your site. It found $2000 more for Republicans
Not my site. It’s your site. I used your site to fact check you.
You mention it here.
http://www.horsesass.org/?p=3310#comment-683020
Puddybud spews:
Clueless Goober: You told me my numbers were wrong in #87. Called me PFool, PStupid, etc.
Now that you were BUSTED for the clueless lies you posted here against my data, you again change your tune.
POSITION REJECTED Clueless Goober.
YLB spews:
You just agreed to the filth question above.
Show me the link to what you’re talking about.
Are you allergic to backing up what you’re claiming?
Puddybud spews:
Clueless Goober: The deal was (DEM) or (REP)
Too bad you don’t like the results.
I’ll even give you the 2002 year off of $280K from the $979K.
So the links prove $699 from Mattel and Learning Co.
$22,000 dems vs. $2250 Republicans from Fermin Cuza ex-CEO and his other $$$ buried in his scandal projects to $89,773 for democrats and 10,227 for Republicans.
Puddybud spews:
Now it’s Stupid Clueless Goober. You said it above and I repeated what you said later.
FAUX Jedi Mind tricks don’t work on Puddy.
Read the thread yourself bud!
Puddybud spews:
Clueless Goober, the orignal site I posted my stuff from is a different site Richard used query. I used the site you used in #87 and proved you as a liar or is it you can’t use a spreadsheet.
I think it’s both.
Clueless Gooberfool!
Puddybud spews:
Clueless Gooberfool@124: You forgot your rant when I posted what you said. And no I am not posting that either.
FAUX Jedi Minds tricks don’t work on Puddy. If you can’t remember your rant I am not posting it again!
Goodbye.
YLB spews:
PuddySpinMan,
I’ll recheck my spreadsheets and your claims later. I got to get ready for dinner.
Pay me the common courtesy of providing links to your sources of information. I told you what I’ve done.
You haven’t done the same.
Later (for real).
Puddybud spews:
You lose Clueless Gooberfool.
690K soft money from Mattel and Learning Co to democrats vs 60K to Republicans is a 10X more in democrat contributions. It is balanced in 2004 & 2006 so that’s a wash.
3.24X more in democrat contributions
Mattel is the ONLY toy company that lobbies in what I can see in FEC contributions. So how can they be a small player. They are the only player! That’s Richard’s definition.
Puddybud spews:
Recheck all you want Clueless Gooberfool. The data is right at the FEC site.
Above you asked me to post all the $$$ values.
1) I don’t do you biddings.
2) Slavery ended in 1863
3) 13th Amendment passed
4) You are stupid
5) You were BUSTED for your lies above.
6) You can’t stay away from Kos and Matters
Hint to you. When I did my count to 90+ days you never ever said For the Clueless wasn’t playing. In fact you never complained when I posted for all to see each rant you pulled from Kos or Matters during those 90+ days.
Puddybud spews:
Clueless Gooberfool: How does it feel to be…
stuck
on
stupid?
Puddybud spews:
I really like the rant of Jane Garman.
That was Priceless.
Puddybud spews:
Clueless Gooberfool. I used query.nictusa.com as Richard provided.
I don’t do your biddings.
Hope Mrs Clueless Gooberfool cooks meals better than you evaluate data.
Puddybud spews:
Clueless Goober: Why don’t you post your spreadsheet values and why you can’t add.
YLB spews:
Yikes, that was an artery clogger. I don’t see how anyone can lust after prime rib when a rib roast will do just as well – for me anyway.
What have we got here… uhhhhhh a wave of nausea strikes…
Well Puddy, you don’t seem to have much confidence in your own assertions. Someone one wiser would have been johnny on the spot with links and tables. He’d shrug and say yeah I’m right, here’s my hypothesis and here’s my proof.
Not even close.
Puddybud spews:
Clueless Gooberfool: Glad to see Mrs Clueless Gooberfool doesn’t only wear the pants in the family.
Now all you are left with is all bluster.
Lets recap the game so far.
Clueless Gooberfool claims my values are wrong. Claims to use a spreadsheet and it doesn’t add.
Puddy proves 2006 values
Puddy proves 2004 values
Puddy proves 2002 values
Puddy proves 2000 values
Puddy proves the $72,000 to democrats and Clueless Gooberfool is BUSTED.
Clueless Gooberfool runs and hides; spews molten lava from sheol; but this lava is quenched by Puddy data which is directly from the FEC web site http://www.fec.gov.
If Richard Pope can find it, surely you can Clueless Gooberfool… unless, of course, you admit Richard Pope is smarter than you.
For the last time Clueless Gooberfool: My values add up two different ways. both are greater than 3.2X and the soft money is over 10X.
Truly Clueless Gooberfool, you can do better than #142. Richard Pope indeed is smarter than you Clueless Gooberfool.
Post for the world how your NEA taught math is superior. Show us your values. Or you’ll be talking to the hand…
Puddybud spews:
Oh Clueless Gooberfool, the soft money to democrats is 10X times bigger too.
Puddybud spews:
You see Clueless Gooberfool, your debate tactic is not a tactic. Your method is I am right and prove me wrong. You made the assertion I was wrong. So you have to prove me wrong. Yet no one has seen all your data.
In many posts above I give you the data from each election set. The world waits to see your data.
My suggestion. Use the FEC link and run the tables on each election year. But don’t take too long. I have an early morning date.
Puddybud spews:
Wow HorsesASSers: Clueless Gooberfool must have had an epiphany on the FEC data. He surely slunk away here.
Happy New Year Clueless Gooberfool.
So I can return to my original thought: Mattel Toy company – cheap labor loving liberals.
YLB spews:
PStupes demonstrates what a pitiful liar and hack he is. 143 to 146 has lots more name calling, no links to sources, no criteria for his whacked out judgements, no methodology on how he went from A to Z.
I looked at Pope’s table (the one where Stupes exclaimed “agreement”) and one post the whackjob himself posted. I saw no there, there.
At the end of the day, his argument is fallacious. If all he can prove is that Mattel gave more to Dems, that by itself doesn’t mean that Americans lost Mattel jobs or it was the green light for the asians to add lead and toxic whatnot to toys.
I declare Stupes a phony debater. Nothing makes this hack more hostile than having his moronic judgements put under the light of scrutiny.
Puddybud spews:
As one can see Clueless Gooberfool realized his numbers were way wrong, lost his argument and the bluster is gone.
See you Clueless Gooberfool. I don’t do your bidding. You claimed to create a spreadsheet and figgered out the data. When I redid the data using the Richard provided URL I only got 2K more Republican outlays and the ration was still 3.24X. Clueless Gooberfool is dumb but he doesn’t know it yet.
I told Clueless Gooberfool I used his FEC link. How many times does he need to be told where the data is? He can’t search the Internet let alone a URL handed him by Richard or another one handed to him by me.
I bet at work his boss lays out his day of work down to the 15 minute intervals. I bet his wife lays out his clothes before he gets up so he’ll know what to wear. Does she identify the socks for the left an right foot too Clueless Gooberfool? How about he shoes?
You know HorsesASSers, you need to kick him out of your reservation as he can’t hold a debate candle.
Seeeeee you lata!!!
Don’t worry peeps, Clueless Gooberfool will be back again – for the last word, of course.
