HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh man, I haven't laughed that hard in a long time! Good one MDE! Steve Hatch! HAHAHAHAHA!
The sad part about the comments is that it's hard to distinguish between sarcasm and sincerity.
Slow news day, huh MDE?
How's this little juicy peice of gossip for you, a former Republican Representative to Congress has said that Rove & Co. are so concerned about Mark Kennedy getting humilated at the hands of the DFL next year that they've contacted Tim Pawlenty to see if he'd be interested in running for Senate.
It's begining to look a lot like Christmas...
Sean Broom | Hasn't been this excited since he knew his mom got him Castle Grayskull for Christmas! Oh 2006 you cannot come too fast...
I'm sure that's what has happened.
And I bet Prince Adam has been asked the the Evil Karl Rove to run for governor.
What have you been smoking?
Thats the best response ever! I mean you so totally proved me wrong!

Talk about wishful thinking...
Kennedy will clean the clock of any of the current DFL opponents when they start debating and really campaigning. He is a master strategist. There is no comparison between him and the likes of Amy, Patty or any of these other lightweights.
Let me suggest the "humilation" will be had by the DFL'er in this race, not Mark.
I do applaud the attempt at planting a new rumor.
I can only hope that he's as master a strategist as you Johnny!
It's pretty easy. There is a giant backlash against the incompetence, cronyism and stupidity of the Bush administration in the country. Bush's numbers have never been this low... hell, no one but Nixon's numbers have ever been this low. And, who do you want running, a Governor with an independent track record, or a guy who bragged about how he voted with the Administration 98% of the time.
Gas is 3.00 a gallon, inflation is on the rise, terrorism is still on the roll, we're stuck in a quagmire halfway across the world, and we've found out that even though Dick "Ahh! My angina!!" Cheney implied that if we voted for Kerry we'd die, the incompetence of the Bush administration couldn't protect us from standing water.
Recently while the house was in recess Mark came home, and sat around the house watching day time TV. Thats not what a good candidate for Senate does, and thats why the Bush administration is starting to get a little skittish at the thought of their hand puppet running against some Democrats who've got a fire under their ass.
But, maybe you can give him some winning advice John, I'm sure you're long on it.
Sean
Sean, your rumor is obviously nothing more than that if you can't name the congressman.
Of course, so far Sean's only argument for the DFL candidate is that Bush sucks.
I wonder how the left will keep Bush relevant in 2010, 2012, 2014, etc.
I can imagine the 2012 campaign, "Folks-uh listen up and listen closely, it was only 12 years ago that George Bush and his greedy band of oilmen from (gasp) Texas came in and stole your vote in Florida. It was only seven years ago that criminal Bush blew up the dikes in New Orleans and left our people to drown while hero Nagin tried his damndest, his absolute damndest to get his brothers and sisters out of the path of the-uh toxic death. Please-uh my people, we cannot let this happen again. Even though he has been out of office for-uh four years now, the ghost of George Bush still haunts our streets and our neighborhoods. Make no mistake, a vote for (fill in Republican candidate here) is a vote for George Bush-uh. And a vote against George Bush-uh is a vote against yourself."
Can't wait.
Dubya has ensured through his own stupidity that he will be remembered for years into the future.
Let's see will it be the thousands of war dead, or the biggest national debt in history, the enormous corruption... take your pick. But I am sure just like with Nixon the Republican spin machine will still try for decades to re-write old Dubya's history. They will tell us how the liberals, even though they did not control power in Washington, actually were responsible for everything that went wrong in America. If only we could be as morally responsible as Halliburton, Enron and Tom Delay the world would be a much better place.
As for Mark Kennedy the only thing he seems to be good at is putting up retro lawn signs and throwing mud.

Republican-- How do you know it's a Congressman? It could just as easily be a Senator. As I am sure you are aware, both the House of Representatives and the Senate form the Congress.
And, I don't have to divulge my sources.
Party Opposite--
So whats uh-up with the uh-minstrelsy? I uh- dunno if uhh... well... umm, you've figured this out, but it seems that the only elected official who has as hard a time speaking in public as you did typing is our President.
First of all, unlike the Republicans, Democrats don't annoint their candidates. Shockingly enough the Democratic party gets to go through that democratic joy of deciding who gets to represent them. Now, why would someone vote for Amy Klobuchar? There are many many reasons, ones that I didn't bring up here, because I simply didn't want to spend the time. Patty Wetterling? Ditto. Ford Bell? Even more. Mike Cirisi? Yep-- good reasons. But, this isn't about them. This is about how Mark Kennedy is a hand puppet of the Bush administration. And as I am sure Dubya and the rest of your detached fundamentalist religious right can tell you '...the sins of the father shall be visited on the son...' This isn't about how Amy, Patty, Ford et.al want a responsive, transparent government that is a judicious steward of our tax dollars ("I think we've trimmed all the fat we can out of the budget!" Hot Tub Tom Delay-- who by the way gave thousands of dollars to Mark Kennedy). This isn't about how Ford, Patty, Amy etc. want a representative in Minnesota who represents the interests of Minnesotans, not the Bush Administration. This isn't about how the cast of charecters want the Senator from Minnesota to be a leader in providing children in Minnesota and the country with health care. This isn't about how the DFL candidates for Senator want to prepare Minnesotan's for the information revolution with access to educations that are second to none.
This is about hte fact that Mark Kennedy has proven so far to be a weak, innefectual candidate. How Mark Kennedy has to respond to the obvious charges that he cares more about what Tom Delay thinks than what a family in Anoka thinks. This is about the fact that Mark Kennedy isn't fit to be a dog catcher.
And if you two cowards don't have the balls to post your own names you can just call me 'the token liberal' instead of using my name.
Sean Broom | Man enough to put my name behind my ideals, and sacrifice for them daily.
Sean-
1. "Democrats don't annoint their candidates. Shockingly enough the Democratic party gets to go through that democratic joy of deciding who gets to represent them." -- that's part of the problem you have had with elections. YOU choose the candidates based on who is closest to your moonbat beliefs.
2. There are damn good reasons why a person would not post their actual name and it has nothing to do with the size of our balls. Besides, how are we supposed to know that you are actually Sean Broom?
Oh, I forgot this one:
3. The "uh" thing was a reference to a joke on an episode of South Park I saw recently. Sorry if no one got it.
YOU choose the candidates based on who is closest to your moonbat beliefs.
Look at that, you can't get through a single post without calling names.
Moonbats!
Wait... you mean like a womans right to choose? You understand the majority of Minnesotan's support a womans right to choose through the second trimester right? Or... or... or...
Simply enough, this post is yet another exercise in republican noise making. Call them liberal long enough and even they believe it.
Tough shit. I'm a centrist former young Republican. I know your games, and they don't work.
There are damn good reasons why a person would not post their actual name and it has nothing to do with the size of our balls. Besides, how are we supposed to know that you are actually Sean Broom?
Why? You afraid for your personal safty? Big bad moonbats gonna come get you in the night? Waaaaaaaaaaaah.
I've never seen a bigger bunch of cry babies than the right on the down hill y'all are now on. Shit starts to go bad and you guys start caterwauling like a bunch of pussies.
But, you want to know why I think your 'Oh... the big scary moonbats are out to get me!' cry baby response is bullshit?
John Hinderaker.
Last time I checked he doesn't go around with armed guards and he signs his name to everything he posts. Not only that, he gives his contact information on his website.
Now, I know that most conservatives don't know what character and culpability mean, but it's not forgotten amongst those that still stand up to pee.
And, how do you know that I am Sean Broom. Because I say I am. If you'd like you can contact me at onedaymaybe811 @ yahoo . com and I'll send you my address, phone number, private email address, make and model of my car, and my credit history. (although 4 of those are availiable to anyone who searches my name at google.com.) It's called character. Look into it.
Sean Broom
I can only hope that he's as master a strategist as you Johnny!
No substance, just rhetoric and personal insults. A definite sign that someone knows their argument is weak.
Must be tough to keep up when your entire reading library is made up of lefty bumperstickers.
I'm pretty sure I went on with substance for a while after my underhanded comment about your pitiful loss to a DFL'er. I guess you just couldn't read that with the tears of anguish and shame in your eyes.
No?
Sean | P.S. Francis Fukuyama thinks you got owned too...
Sean-
"you guys start caterwauling like a bunch of pussies."
"but it's not forgotten amongst those that still stand up to pee."
Aside from being incredibly sexist for a "women's rights" lefty (oh god, is it okay to call you a lefty) this is incredibly stupid.
I continue to find amazement that the majority of your posts criticize Republican tactics, not ideas. If you'd like to join the rest of us in the arena of ideas, we'd welcome you. If you would like to continue third grade arguments about who called who what, we can do that, too.
But I doubt MDE would ever let us post here again.
That coming from a guy whose favorite adjective is 'moonbat' really gives me pause...
Well... okay. Or not.
Sean
I'm pretty sure I went on with substance for a while after my underhanded comment about your pitiful loss to a DFL'er. I guess you just couldn't read that with the tears of anguish and shame in your eyes.
I don't know what I ever did to you to cause you to be such a jerk, Sean.
Oh, that's right. Nothing but be a Republican.
And that's the problem with young, ideolistic lefties these days. Their "substance" is really nothing but a deep bumpersticker. When they've got nothing or don't feel like others are listening, they have to attempt to marginalize them with personal insults.
Sean, try a different flavor of kool aid. This one's getting really old.
Sean,
Here are some recommendations that might help you develop a sense of humor:
The Office (7 p.m., Tuesday, NBC)
Arrested Development (7 p.m. Mon. FOX)
Jim Carey
Andy Kaufman
Will Ferrell
Johnny Carson
The list could go on. But try, you know, smiling every now and then. Laugh at others. Laugh at yourself. Try saying "moonbat" outloud with out a giggle. Laugh at a loud fart.
Do something. If you can't laugh, your going to drive yourself crazy (trust me).
Actually John, I've found that working with/respecting Republicans is like date rape, you think you've found common ground next thing you know, its the following morning and you've been violated.
Why you? I mean really John, you all have had 8 years of giving Democrats curbjaw, and when one has the balls to hit back you get all misty eyed and pout out your bottom lip?
Yeah... here is 50 cents, go cry to someone who has a bleeding heart.
According to the talking heads of that party of which you are a goose stepping jingoistic member, I am a traitor. I'm weak. I'm not a patriot.
Turn about is fair play, either fight back or go cry in the corner.
Pouty Opposite--
I've got a sense of humor. I think everything I've said is awfully funny. It's a joke to me. But you guys get your feelings hurt and then start crying.
With the sole exception of Andy Kaufman, your list of comedians is weak. Will Ferrell? Yeah, I can tell you're the aribiter of good comedic taste. Is all your life as white bread and innoffensive as Jim Carey, Will Farrell and Johnny Carson?
Here is a few suggestions:
Richard Pryor
Lewis Black
Family Guy
Grow a sack and then try to tell me what funny is.
Sean
Actually John, I've found that working with/respecting Republicans is like date rape, you think you've found common ground next thing you know, its the following morning and you've been violated.
So what you're saying is that you have no respect for anyone who doesn't share your views.
Turn about is fair play, either fight back or go cry in the corner.
My choices, according to you, are to either join the fray of namecalling and disrespect, or be viewed by you as sitting in a corner crying.
The other choice is to ignore people like you. You haven't added anything to the conversation except personal insults and left wing bumpersticker slogans.
I'd be willing to engage you in a true discussion of issues but so far you've shown yourself to be incapable of doing so without the insults. Why would I bother?
Let me suggest that you will one day look back at your "debate style" and cringe.
It could be worse John-- I could have been the first to say it.
"Bipartisanship is another name for date rape."
--Dick Armey
But I bet you don't care when it's your own leaders who you're following.
I'm a Democrat John. I think that seperate is never equal. I believe that if a child goes to sleep hungry at night, it is not his fault, it is not his mothers fault, it is OUR fault for letting our most precious natural resource suffer. I think it is a crime that we as the most powerful, the strongest and the greatest country in the world have children who don't have health insurance. I believe that our soldiers deserve the best, that after sacrificing their entire lives on our behalf that they should come home to a country that values their service. I believe that every soldier who has put a full career into the service should have the best in health care for the rest of their lives. They deserve nothing less! And here is the kicker... I don't think they should have to pay a dime. I believe that America is the greatest country in the world, and that our capacity to lead, to invent and to change the world may be limitless! And because of that I think that the most exceptional college education should be mandatory just like preschool education (which incedentally has been shown by most everyone who has studied it to be the greatest benefit to the intellectual development of our children). I believe in that our leaders should be responsive and capable stewards of a most precious resource the national checkbook. I'm a Democrat, I don't have a problem spending money, I have a problem wasting money.
I think that you're the problem with America John. A bunch of fundamentalist free lunchers, hell bent on destroying social programs, that to you are nothing more than poor people or black people suckling at the teat of Government, but that to so many are real social benefits. I think that people like you, have destroyed our school system. I think that the Republicans commitment to unilateral testing exalts mediocrity in this country. That instead of teaching to knock it out of the park, teachers are teaching for a test! I think that years from now, when my kids ask me why my boss's last name is Chu, I'll be able to look at them and say it's because some nimrods you voted for thought it was the best thing to mortgage our unsustanable growth on selling our debt to the Chinese. And that while the rest of the world was looking to make the smartest, most capable scientists, engineers and buisnessmen, American teachers were more concerned about keeping their jobs so they taught to the middle, not the best of what we could be.
Hows that for bumper stickers?
Sean
Hows that for bumper stickers?
Yep, more bumpersticker ideology.
You don't have a clue as to what *I'm* all about. You wrote all sorts of nice sounding platitudes but end it with non-sense like this:
I think that you're the problem with America John.
You make all sorts of wild-eyed claims about Republicans but they're just views based on left-tinted glasses. They're not the reality for Republicans I know and they're sure not reality for me.
You don't know a thing about me, Sean. You see "Republican" and start foaming at the mouth and start spewing the hate you'd been taught by your DFL buddies. But in reality, I'm nothing like the picture you've fingerpainted. Nothing at all. Most of my political friends are - horrors - democrats.
some nimrods you voted for thought it was the best thing to mortgage our unsustanable growth on selling our debt to the Chinese.
You mean like Bill Clinton and his buddies selling our military secrets to them?
When's the last time you opened yourself up to learning from a Republican? Or just sat down with one for coffee to see what they're all about - without hauling out the talking points or left-tinted glasses?
You sound so bitter and meanspirited. What happened to you to make you this way? I know of no Republican who talks of democrats the way you talk of Republicans. You seem to think we eat children for lunch or something and I just don't know what causes someone to be so irrational.
Sean is an ass, a prick, an idiot and probably has no balls. At first I thought his parents must be stupid, but after reading his latest diatribe, I think he must have grown up in a village of dipshits. Minneapolis maybe?
There, finally I have name called. Feels nice, now I can tell where Sean gets his obvious happiness from. I also gain happiness from telling people how much what they like sucks, like Sean did with my list of comedians. Sean, did it take a village to come up with that list?
But he does laugh at Family Guy, so give him that. Favorite Stewie quote of all time: "Nothing says respect me like a bloody head on a stake." I love it! For those of you with Mac OSX.4, there is a random Family Guy quote generator widget I highly recommend.
You don't have a clue as to what *I'm* all about.
Actually John, after reading your never ending ditribes, I know alot about what you're about. You aren't some special butterfly, you aren't a unique snowflake, you aren't a rose petal all your own.
Nope your like most every other fundamentalist free luncher I've ever met.
Remember John, you've got a voting record. You've got a blog that you publicize. I know who you are.
Most of my political friends are - horrors - democrats.
www.blackpeopleloveus.com
Tell it to someone who cares. I still think that people like you.
By the way pouty opposite that reminds me, another good comedien who is probably too offensive for you is Lenny Bruce, give him a listen.
I know of no Republican who talks of democrats the way you talk of Republicans.
Bullshit. There is a host! A fricking cult of Republicans who talk about Democrats like this. You want a list? Hugh Hewitt. Rush Limbaugh. Anne "I've Got Bigger Boobies Than Brains, So It Sucks I'm Flat Chested" Coulter. Whats his name "I'm not the only self denying Jew with a shady moustache" Savage. Sean Hannity.
Want me to go on?
When's the last time you opened yourself up to learning from a Republican?
Did you think I was lying John? I'm not on here to screw around, I really am a former young Republican. I come from a long line of as far right as possible Republicans. And I love 'em. We have dinner, it's a good time, we argue about politics they call me a commie, I call them a bunch of facists and it's the end of the day. But I'm not out to play warm and fuzzy. I'm here to win. I'm here to make sure that the world doesn't' end up the eugenic machiavellian world you and the rest of your fundamentalist detached cronies do. I'm here to make sure that we have a Government of the ladder, and not the line, but that if someone falls off that ladder we have a second to none ambulance system. I'm here to make sure that Social Security doesn't become Social Press Your Luck...
Ohhhh... WHAMMY!
I think he must have grown up in a village of dipshits. Minneapolis maybe?
So what can't you address ideas Pouty? Hmmmm? Or do you immediately have ot resort to name calling?
Hey, Kettle you're black asshole.
And no, I grew up in Ft. Knox KY, Ft. Leavenworth KS, Corinth MS, and Mannheim Ger.
I also gain happiness from telling people how much what they like sucks, like Sean did with my list of comedians.
See previous comment about coloring of cooking implements.
It's not my fault that you have white bread with the crusts cut off taste.
Sean
Sean-
Real piece of work, you are.
That means a lot coming from a coward whose too afraid to put their name behind what they say... like you.
Sean
Oh and Johnny--
I discovered that not only was our local government disfunctional (at the time), but those who were controlling it until the 2004 election were downright evil and needed to be extracted from power.
You care to amend your statement of...
You make all sorts of wild-eyed claims about Republicans but they're just views based on left-tinted glasses. They're not the reality
Or admit that your are a hypocrite lacking in morality?
Sean
I'm here to win.
And that's the problem. Participating on a blog, to you, is competition. You truly think that you can come here, call people names, publish never-ending tirades, and make things up about people and that will convince people of your wisdom.
The fact is, young man, you don't have any - wisdom, that is. What you have is rhetoric on a stick. Or more accurately, rhetoric on a schtick.
And, by the way, calling me "Johnny" is just childish. I don't call you Seanie. It doesn't bother me, you will join the ranks of my golfing buddies and grandmas. As I tell others, I don't care what name they call me as long as the check doesn't bounce.
Release the anger, Sean. You're too young to be a bitter old koot.
That means a lot coming from a coward whose too afraid to put their name behind what they say... like you.
Sean - what's your last name? Where do you live? What's your real email address?
You post no last name. You post no information about yourself. You hide behind a Yahoo email address.
I don't think I'd be calling others cowards for doing exactly what you're doing.
downright evil
Maybe it's a definition problem. See, I considering the use of filing false police reports against political opponents to be evil. I consider anonymously calling someones boss at work, making stuff up about them in an attempt to get them fired (your political opponents) to be evil. That's what has gone on in my city and there are a lot of people that consider that evil.
If you don't, fine, but it reveals a lot about you and your character.
Sean-
My thoughts and statements have no credibility because I do not disclose my real name?
I guess all that stuff from Deep Throat should have been tossed aside as well, the coward.
Oh, gosh duh, that was okay, he was attacking a Republican.
John--
I've written my last name 4 times on this blog. Sean Broom. My middle name is David. The two email addresses I use are
sdbroom1982 @ yahoo . com
and
onedaymaybe811 @ yahoo . com
The second having been posted earlier. My phone number and home address are easily availiable to anyone who would happen to do a search on Google. I just figured that after posting it enough, and inviting others to search my name and address I didn't have to do it with every comment on the same post.
Reactionary much?
But if you're too entitled or too lazy, email me and I will send you my home phone number, address, make and model of the car I drive as well as pant size.
Participating on a blog, to you, is competition. You truly think that you can come here, call people names, publish never-ending tirades, and make things up about people and that will convince people of your wisdom.
I don't care to convince you of my wisdom John. I don't think that participating in a blog is competition, I think the general competition between those who want whats best for the world and those who want to hand it over to idealogues and big business.
In short, I don't want to kill the Republican party, I just want to make it weak enough that an angry mob can take it into the street and beat it to death.
And you can rationalize your vicious rhetoric how ever you'd like to, but go back and read your post about Bill Clinton John. Do it. IT's not that hard. Have you ever thought about sitting down for coffee with BC? Asking him what it's like in his world? I mean shit... it's like you think he eats children for lunch or something.
I guess all that stuff from Deep Throat should have been tossed aside as well, the coward.
Are you comparing yourself to deep throat?
I mean really?
Are you that absurd?
No matter whether not he was an anyonymous source, people knew who he was. He was culpable for what he said. Something that seems to be lost on you, who cowardly continues to hide behind a screen name. I mean for the love of peet, you've even blocked access to your blogger profile.
You're a coward.

Sean-
What if I work in the Attorney General's office and fear that I'll lose my job for things I may say online? What if I work somewhere where what I say here might have negative implications?
Should I just shut up? Should I toss away my right to speak? Of course not. Believe it or not, some of us live in a world where the words we say and the things we do outside our working lives necessarily impact what we do everyday.
It doesn't matter who anyone is who posts on the internet. What matters is what they think and write.
Reactionary much?
Every word you've written here has been reactionary, Sean. You're a walking lefty bumpersticker and nothing you've written has changed my opinion.
Like I said before, some day you will look back and wonder how you ever tied your shoes in the morning. Your posts are arrogant, misinformed, meanspirited and definitely not in the spirit of true debating of issues.
But that's okay, we were all young once.
I have to ask. You keep calling me a "fundamentalist". How do you define that and exactly why shouldn't I consider you an anti-christian bigot for using the term like you do? It's no different than saying "you Jews all do this and that". Just curious.
It doesn't matter who anyone is who posts on the internet. What matters is what they think and write.
It's simple enough. If you don't have the cajones to put your name behind what you write you shouldn't write it. You have no culpability, no responsibility, no charecter. You can whine on and on about how it can effect your job. Well the simple fact is, if you don't have the charecter to stand behind what you write; then you shouldn't write it.
How do you define that and exactly why shouldn't I consider you an anti-christian bigot for using the term like you do?
it's simple enough, why do you keep calling me a liberal like it's a dirty word? You could call me anti-Christian or whichever is the invective of day, but I am a man of my faith, and my faith runs deep; but the difference between me being faithful, and devout is that I don't think my personal beliefs supercede the publics right to equality and fairness in the eyes of the law. Which you do. You think that your religious belief is more important than the equality of all citizens under the law. As a fundamentalist you try to force your faith on others, and bend the will of the Government to that.
Sean Broom | Still man enough to put my name behind my words.
You could call me anti-Christian or whichever is the invective of day, but I am a man of my faith, and my faith runs deep;
Is that why you have such a potty mouth? Just curious.
but the difference between me being faithful, and devout is that I don't think my personal beliefs supercede the publics right to equality and fairness in the eyes of the law. Which you do.
There you go again, telling me what I do and don't do without knowing me.
You think that your religious belief is more important than the equality of all citizens under the law.
Again, telling me what I think without knowing me. I know of absolutely not one Republican or Christian (non-Republican) - personally - who believes as you've just claimed. Not one. It's easy to tell me what I believe but you don't know me and you're wrong.
s a fundamentalist you try to force your faith on others, and bend the will of the Government to that.
Can you define "fundamentalist"? I think I asked for that before.
I am an evangelical Christian, which is not a "fundamentalist". I also don't and haven't attempted to force my faith on anyone through laws.
I do, however, admit to attempting to bring into law my political beliefs. But that's no different than what liberals do, too. Guilty as charged.
You've also never answered the question about why you're such an angry young man. What caused you to hate Republicans so much? What made you hate anyone who even hints of being less than liberal?
Do you think conservatives are stupid?
Do you think liberals are smarter than the rest of us?
