BUSH RUNS FROM SHEEHAN — AGAIN
The President-in-Absentia won’t be in D.C. for this weekend’s anti-war rally. He’s going on vacation to Crawford, Texas — again. Bush will be remembered as the Vacation President. Or the Absent President. Or maybe as the AWOL President. Bush obviously is scared shitless of that chick. He’s putting 2,000 miles between himself and her bullhorn!
SOURCE OF HURRICANES DISCOVERED
Scientists have long known that hurricanes are caused by warm air, but until now have been unable to pinpoint the source of the warm air. Thanks to satellite and GPS technology, the source of hurricanes has been discovered! Scientists have discovered a massive hot air vent in Florida that happens to be located at exactly the same GPS coordinates as Rush Limbaugh’s radio studio.
BUSH’S SPACE PROGRAM RAMPS UP
George W. Bush plans to land a man on the moon by 2018, and to land a man on Condi Rice by 2020.
“[Cindy] Sheehan, originally a sympathetic figure, is now merely a pathetic one, and we’re inclined to ignore her totally, except that we keep remembering all those Angry Left types who, a few short weeks ago, were declaring that she had ‘absolute moral authority’ and was going to transform American politics. If thinking about that doesn’t give you a good, deep, soul-cleansing laugh, nothing will.” —James Taranto
3….RR…Gay humor? Sexist humor? Racist humor? You Democrat “guvment” hack libs probably need to lose your public sector job for this “hate” speech. [hehe]
So Goldy, when you’re on Scoop: would the above qualify Roger to be voted off the island three times?
Step right up boys and girls…
Cindy the Irrelevant Sheep and Her Traveling Media Whore Show!
Bob Ferguson is the hate-Dean-Logan conservative candidate.
I need not say more.
re 4: I wish one of James Tarantos’ most beloved relatives would die in Iraq so I to could enjoy a similar soul-cleansing laugh!
Actually, Gwb is hiding out in CO in the military’s command central. I wouldn’t be surprised if the pipsqueek tried to declare martial law from there. I hope there’s a patriot or two still left in the military.
gutless, shiftless, brainless loosey-goosey @ 9: “I hope there’s a patriot or two still left in the military.”
Wouldn’t help your case any since real patriots aren’t Kool-Aid-sipping-MorOn.org-talking-point-spouting cowards like you.
Go ahead … vote me off the island … I dare you, no, I double dare you!!!

BUSH RUNS FROM SHEEHAN – AGAIN
I am sure he is worried that she will call for the US withdrawel from DC, as she did for New Orleans.
I suppose Sheehan will have all the names of the fallen soldiers at her protest. Why does she insist on pissing on the memory of the soldier’s familles who disagree with her.
Roger Rabbit @ 1 – ‘BUSH RUNS FROM SHEEHAN – AGAIN’
Guess who else is leaving DC. All of the prominant dems like Kerry, Clinton, etc. You team is retreating Wabbit. Better find some reinforcements.
AlwaysRIGHT Mark@16—
That was pretty fun except that Lucy is a dude.
Actually, never mind.
Roger seems more than capable of humping either gender.
Rog is an equal opportunity HUMPER!
As expected…BUTTBOY Logan once again earns his way by pulling ballots out of his ass.
I hope Ferguson looks very, very closely at how these ballots were processed.
Goldy is trying hard to run interference with some convoluted logic that rationalizes the obvious.
LEFTIST PINHEADS will even cheat Democrats.
Remember Dean.. This is Edmonds vs Ferguson. All the Chrissy ballot are from the last (s)election.

Hey pencil dick, if they’re female and bunny, I don’t ask ’em for their health card before I fuck ’em! How do you think I populated Green Lake Park with all those furry little bunnys with cute cotton tails?
13
There’s only so much you can say about a King County Council race. This thread needed a little, um, topical diversity.
So, anybody wanna lay lettuce on whether Condi gets laid before 2020? Man, if there was ever an anal chick who needed to get fucked, look no further!!!
18
How does not wanting to waste any more American lives on an ill-conceived, poorly executed, losing war constitute “pissing on the memories of the soldiers’ families?”
Cindy Sheehan has more morals in her little finger than right-wing fascist militarists like you will ever have in the whole useless lot of you!
Oh, and did I mention, Doofus — you are an unpatriotic, anti-American, anti-troops piece of shit!!!

I’m Roger Rabbit, the Army of One, and I’m reporting for duty!

Screw you and your moral rant. Go hug some more terrorists. The problem with Cindy Sheehan is she had a boy.
What shall we say of the morality (or lack thereof) of a political party (i.e., the GOP) that despises peace and uses OPC (other people’s children) to fight their wars of aggression?
George W. Bush — deserter
Dick Cheney – King of Deferments
Rush Limbaugh – draft dodger

The problem with your mother is she had a jackass.
Cyn @ 20
If you want to call whatever that Lucy thing is a “dude,” fine by me. “She” likely looks like a gender dysphoric version of the fat gym teacher from the movie Porky’s anyway.
Roger @ 23
Pencil dick? You must have me confused with your “life partner” lucy. Think more along the lines of those jumbo 20-color ballpoint pens they used to sell at FAO.
As for who you’d rut with? I’d say if it is alive and has an orifice of some sort, you’ll stick your little pencil eraser in it.
Military recruiter should have a sign saying hiring only men. No children need aply. The less donks we have in the military the better.
By the way, Doofus, I kill terrorists. Got that? You unpatriotic, anti-American, glob of sewer slime. Frankly, you smell like elephant shit!
32
You haven’t enlisted yet? Why are you still here?
@31
Just what we need — another Republican bragging he has a big dick! As if we don’t have enough of those already.
If Republicans have so much balls how come they aren’t all in Iraq?
I’ve slapped mosquitoes that have more balls than any Republican you can name!
Republican = blowhard
Roger, he huffs and he raves
His bile, it spews forth in waves
But real logic there ain’t
It bears heavy Left taint
Up to him, we’d devolve back to caves
Be careful writing us from the battlefield Wabbit. You might miss some of those terrorist.
Roger @ 35
And you’re a typical Dem Bunny… Recklessly screwing (see your 23) and then leaving the results for the adults to clean up.
Democrat= commie loving,terrorist hugging, NAMBLA defending ect
Roger @ 38
Democrat = blow hard, soft, slow, fast… however your john likes it
I heard that when not in the battlefield killing terrorist the bunny wants to burn books. What a good little commie.
Frankly, I think Cindy the Shrill needs a louder microphone.
…She should ask (in her adenoid whiny voice, thick with phony emotion… whaaah, whaaah, whaaah sounds an awful lot like baaaah, baaaah, baaah) her handlers if they can get Screamin Dean to join her Shrill Cindy (the Irrelevant Sheep) and Her Traveling Media Whore Show!
Iowa would be a good place to start the tour!
They can be the opening act for left/right/middle, I don’t recall Hillary and the rest of her irrelevant, impotent nutburger clown posse
As many of you already know, Stefan Sharansky, the proprietor of Scuzzy Politics and erstwhile poll worker, thinks Roger Rabbit is Dean Logan blogging on a King County computer. Sharansky (who can’t even spell his own fucking name right!) is full of shit, but as he’s impervious to all known facts, I go along with his delusion. Therefore, since I’m Dean Logan and Stefan is a poll worker, I’m Stefan’s supervisor. And believe me, Stefan needs a LOT of supervising! For one thing, he’s a lazy shit who rarely posts anything on his own blog, and when he does, he’s too goddam lazy to do any research.
It’s time to check up on Stefan again.
Let’s see, Stefan alleges that Dean Logan (on whom Stefan has a secret homosexual crush) is teaching “poll workers to accept illegal votes” and “all but explicitly instructs the pollworkers to follow his example and look the other way at illegal voting.”
Funny, I took the same 3-hour training Stefan did, at the same location (North Seattle Community College), in fact I might even have been in the same class with Stefan for all he or I know, and I don’t remember Dean Logan coming in and telling us to accept illegal votes.
In fact, Dean Logan wasn’t even there! The class was presented by a couple of chicks who work for King County. But don’t let facts interfere with a juicy rant, eh Stefan?!
Stefan continues, “The training session and handouts, for example, don’t even mention the poll judge’s oath ….”
Well, you may have a point there, Stefan. Perhaps the contents of the oath should be spelled out for those incapable of understanding and following a simple one-step instruction — you, for example. It does seem doubtful that someone of your limited intellectual capacity would understand that most of us know what we’re swearing to, when we raise our right hand.
This isn’t like enlisting in the army. I can understand why a freckle-faced 19-year-old, when he raises his right hand, might think he signed up for “fun, travel, and adventure.” After all, that’s what the recruiter told him, right? So it must be true. There was nothing in the recruiting pitch to his junior high class about getting arms and legs blown off, or shot full of holes, or kept in the Bush Imperial Army until age 85. Hmmm … I think this is a digression … what was I talking about … oh yeah, poll workers know what they’re signing up for (with one exception).
Stefan: “In fact, the poll judges weren’t even asked to sign the required oath on election day.”
Bush wasn’t asked to sign the oath of office — does that mean he isn’t president? Stefan, you are one dumb fuck! How did God manage to cram so much stupidity into one human being? I’m sure science must be interested in that question.
What’s really interesting about this rant is that immediately below it, Stefan has reproduced the oath HE SIGNED. (He had to do this in order to segui to the next part of his rant, which consists of criticizing the oath.) Sheesh. Well if Stefan wasn’t asked to sign the oath, he must have volunteered to sign it, ya think? Hey Stefan, if you’re in a volunteering mood, I know an Army recruiter who would like you to sign something — never mind, somehow I don’t feel we should entrust our national security, even a tiny part of it, to somebody as clueless as you.
Stefan: “There was only one incident regarding an unqualified voter at my polling place on Tuesday. A man walked in asking to register to vote. It was clear from his explanation of his circumstances that he was registered in a different state but not in Washington. Nevertheless, the provisional judge offered him a provisional ballot. If you have legitimate doubts about the eligibility of a person who holds himself out to be a legal voter, you must let them vote a challenged ballot. But I would tend to draw the line on ‘let everybody who wants to, vote’ at those who freely acknowledge at the polling place that they are not registered or otherwise not entitled to vote.”
Hey jackass, if you want to work for me, get this straight — your job is to FOLLOW THE FUCKING INSTRUCTIONS, NOT MAKE UP YOUR OWN RULES!!! Got that? If the law says anybody can vote a provisional ballot, then anybody can vote a provisional ballot! It’s NOT up to YOUR discretion! You’re just a $9-an-hour flunky! You don’t get those big bucks to make decisions! Comprende? No wonder you’re unemployed.
One thing I’ll say about Dean Logan, he’s pretty damn careless about who he hires. Especially who he hires to be poll workers. Oh, I forgot, I’m Dean Logan!!!

There — I slapped myself on the wrist for hiring that idiot to work at a polling location.

You go, Cindy! Shove their war up their fascist asses!
And now it’s time for the president’s weekly children’s reading lesson.
See George. See George run. Run, George, run! George runs fast. George runs fast when Cindy is coming. All the way to Texas! George is scared shitless of Cindy. So are all those neo-fascist, right-wing, anti-American, Republican cocksuckers! Hey Doofus, suck my dick!
In a few months, we’ll all be hearing Shrill Cindy (the Irrelevant Sheep) whining and baaaahing about how she was so used by the Moron.org types… that’ll be after she’s deposited a few of her speaker fee checks and right before she inks her book deal.
Follow the money… afte all that’s what Momma Ewe is chasing.

You ARE talking about Ann Coulter, aren’t you? Nobody is more mercenary (and devoid of principle or human decency) than Ann Coulter. She makes Gary Ridgeway look like a Rotarian.
Roger @ 48
Beg all you want, but you’re the Democrat. You’re the ones with the hive mind and the blind obedience to your Fearless Leaders. If anyone is the fall-to-“his”-knees coward, it is you.
I’m sure your syphilitic, welfare-cashin’ “life partner” lucy has plenty of time on “her” hands.
Roger @ 50
Cindy who?
Marky-Mark and the Fightin’ Honkies: You go Girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@55
Just what we need — another ignorant Puke who doesn’t read the papers and has no clue what’s going on in the world. These fucking Republicans think being stupid and uninformed is a virtue.
@55
Oh yeah, one more thing, since you brought it up: I like Lucy better than I like you. That doesn’t take much effort. Who could possibly like a neo-fascist troop-hating anti-American warmongering traitor like you?
I thought this thread was about Ferguson and Edmonds???
You see how Mrs. Sheehan has “distracted” all of us!
Once again Cynical is right. It’s okay for the left to hijack a thread for their puny “stuck on stupid” rants. That’s why being a lefty is well received on this board. They never say their sorry for their actions. When called on it what did the Professor DJ say?
Roger Rodent @12:
Nah, we wouldn’t vote you off the island. We’d simply roast you for dinner; I hear wabbit tastes like chicken. But then again, something tells me you have a fecal filling.
Bob Ferguson is now ahead of Carolyn Edmonds by 11,488 to 11,169 as of the 4:12 p.m. update on Saturday 09/24/2005
http://www.metrokc.gov/electio.....sPage3.htm
Amazing — went from 79 votes behind to 319 votes ahead. And it only took 1,850 votes counted between the two in order to change the results by 398 votes. Wby is there such a big difference in each day’s count?
You just wait, Richard. Just wait.
Ferguson, remember, is the John McCain-wanna-be. My favorite.
But if I were Steven Pyeatt, I’d be hoping Edmonds wins. Probable chance he’ll get in, giving a majority to the GOP on the council. Dean Logan is screwed either way (we can only hope).
Something interesting on Fairvote.org. In the Democratic Primary for New York City races this year, there was a lot of plurality winners, and the attempted two-round runoff was not successful.
http://fairvote.org/?page=1592
Oops, I meant to include that in the King County Council District race that is so close, there were only two leading vote-getters, but still, we have almost the same problem. We will have a close election that will force a recount, and delay printing and sending out the ballots for the General! We need to either abolish the Primary and Replace it with Instant Runoff Voting, OR Adopt IRV for both the primary and the General. If the parties want to have their partisan primary, fine, there will be a clear majority in the race, so we can get ready for the General Election.
Josef,
Steven Pyeatt in fact is very happy to see Carolyn gone. No one wants to run a campaign against someone as dishonest and without values as that woman was.
Bob Ferguson has spent a lot of time pretending to be a Republican, courting the people upset about the CAO and other issues, while promoting himself to the Democrats as the person they want (in order to win the PCO’s over).
The bottom line is that he campaigns one way, but when push comes to shove he does not vote against the party caucus on major issues.
Steven Pyeatt has built relationships with people on both sides of the aisle and is all about representing the people of the county and not special interest groups.
He will be the councilmember who is always looking out for the people and pushing for the county to be more open and responsible.
