		<description>Your problem, Tommy Johnson and DJZ, is that your solution to this &quot;GOPer-Only Pork Problem&quot; (*snicker*) seems to be &quot;Elect Barack Obama&quot;.

Consequently, I would not be surprised if you suggested &quot;Arm Amputation&quot; to solve the &quot;Cut Finger&quot; problem.</description>

		<description>Troy:  the problem with earmarks is that under GOPer &quot;stewardship&quot;, they were hidden.  

The problem with Governor Moose Meat, is she was a big consumer of pork; submitting almost &lt;a href=http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/gop_convention_spin_part_ii.html$198 MILLION&lt;/a&gt; in earmark requests for pork just this year.

So if she had an epiphany and sworn off pork, she&#039;s done it recently.

But it&#039;s not surprising; the problem with republiCons is not so much with what they say - it&#039;s that they so often do the exact opposite of what they said they would.</description>

		<description>DJZ said:

&quot;We are pointing that the government of smaller government, the candidate known as the maverick, has settled for a running mate that is for a bigger government and has had her fill of pork.&quot;

You really have failed &quot;prove it&quot;, if that is your goal. You&#039;ve insinuated much, but for all the hard work you&#039;ve put in, DJZ, you don&#039;t really bring much perspective to the table.

&quot;Weâ€™re not even saying we donâ€™t like pork&quot;

Plainly. 

And you imply it is the only way to get your agenda funded, since you don&#039;t have the chops to convince anyone across the aisle that your funding targets are worthy. You can blame it on the stubbornness of your adversaries, if you are lazy. And I believe you are since you admit you aren&#039;t even trying to convince anyone here of anything. *shrug*</description>

September 4th, 2008 at 7:56 pm
Howâ€™s that $5000 investment working out for you asshole??&lt;/i&gt;

&lt;b&gt;I&#039;m assuming I&#039;m your asshole. Quite fine. I&#039;ve sent another chunk last night after Palin started her crap. Obama raised 8 million dollars overnight starting 7 minutes into Palin&#039;s speech. I&#039;ve also steered a couple of top notch employees to the cause over in Virginia.&lt;/b&gt;

&lt;i&gt;Pete Says:
September 4th, 2008 at 12:17 pm
Tommy, you are still an idiot even when you try to tag along with your big brother DJZ you look like a fool.&lt;/i&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Actually, Tommy is older than me.&lt;/b&gt;

&lt;i&gt;DJZ, Iâ€™m willing to bet that McCain has a clearer mind than you (I know he has a clearer mind than Tommy boy) and will out live you.&lt;/i&gt;

&lt;b&gt;That would be one helluva feat. By the time I was Mccain&#039;s age, McCain would be heading for 110. And, still not fit to serve as President.&lt;/b&gt;</description>

		<description>Tommy, that good your opinion means nothing to anyone but your fellow buttlickers.  Let me know if you ever have an intellegent thought son.  I&#039;m young so I can wait.

I really don&#039;t understand all of your strange little insults. You seem to have trouble getting past the 3rd grade insult level.  It is sad.  See help Tommy boy, seek help.</description>

		<description>I guess we are but, isn&#039;t that the same promise you made to me in 2006?

Pete, take a look at Mccain, your chances for victory has gone to the same place as his youth.

You&#039;re free to point out any bullshit that I have written on Palin. However, understand you&#039;ll be stepping into an arena of policy and fact, you may want to do some homework first.</description>

		<description>DJZ, you go with that if it makes you feel better.  But understnad you are a loser and will continue to be a loser here.  You really don&#039;t get it do you.  Republicans are going to kick some major ass this year and its because of losers like you who keep spewing forth their bullshit.  People have figured out that the Democrats can only raise taxes - they can&#039;t solve any problems - Democrats just whine and complain.  No solutions.  Boy are you sons of a bitches in for a surprise this November!</description>

Anyone else think itâ€™s funny that the â€œhappy to pay for a better ???â€ crowd has all of the sudden transformed into the Pork Police(TM)?&lt;/i&gt;

No. It just shows that once again you Retardicans don&#039;t get it. Its the hypocrisy. We are pointing that the government of smaller government, the candidate known as the maverick, has settled for a running mate that is for a bigger government and has had her fill of pork.

We&#039;re not even saying we don&#039;t like pork- I think its a shame that that&#039;s the only way to fund some of our infrastructure but, that&#039;s another story. Point is, you got nothing and I&#039;m going to bludgeon you with this VP choice.</description>

		<description>Troy,
Consider it admission by omission. I am a partisan that&#039;s not here to change minds. 

However, when discussing Sarah Palin, there is enough material from her public life that I don&#039;t have to touch her personal problems. 

In other words, this is one debate where i can kick your collective asses because you are trying to defend the indefensible. 

Its too easy, for instance I will say Sarah Palin is a FLIP-FLOPPER.
Then ChinNuts will come on here an say &quot; Ziggy dogshit, you dumb and smell funny she no Philip Phlopper. Shut up shit brain! Me need food now.&quot;

i would say something like:

She appears to oppose windfall taxes on oil companies at the national level but supported them to benefit her state.

She supported Obama&#039;s energy plan, before she was against it.

She flip-flopped on the Bridge to Nowhere.

Then those of you aren&#039;t totally deranged will be smacking yourselves in the forehead and cursing McCain for once again screwing your party.

Gotta go, Romney is on trying to prove that he would have been a better choice than Palin. Can&#039;t wait for Rotten Rudy.</description>

<p>However, when discussing Sarah Palin, there is enough material from her public life that I don&#8217;t have to touch her personal problems. </p>
<p>In other words, this is one debate where i can kick your collective asses because you are trying to defend the indefensible. </p>
<p>Its too easy, for instance I will say Sarah Palin is a FLIP-FLOPPER.<br />
Then ChinNuts will come on here an say &#8221; Ziggy dogshit, you dumb and smell funny she no Philip Phlopper. Shut up shit brain! Me need food now.&#8221;</p>
<p>i would say something like:</p>
<p>She appears to oppose windfall taxes on oil companies at the national level but supported them to benefit her state.</p>
<p>She supported Obama&#8217;s energy plan, before she was against it.</p>
<p>She flip-flopped on the Bridge to Nowhere.</p>
<p>Then those of you aren&#8217;t totally deranged will be smacking yourselves in the forehead and cursing McCain for once again screwing your party.</p>
<p>Gotta go, Romney is on trying to prove that he would have been a better choice than Palin. Can&#8217;t wait for Rotten Rudy.</p>

		<description>Troy,
I used that paper to research old interviews and quotes from Palin. its part of the vetting process. The point about the bridge to nowhere is that she is NOT against earmarks or pork- you know the maverick thing? She took that money and distributed it to other programs. 

About the baby and grandchild and being home, I don&#039;t give a crap. Its not my business or yours- you brought it up now put it back.

My opposition lies in her actions in the public roles that she has had- which may give an indication of how she will act a 72 year old heartbeat away.

Surely, 
Obama has gone through this- and his wife. They talked to every associate the two of them had for years. They went back to a paper his WIFE wrote in school and even found that he wrote something about being President in third grade. Obama went through hell for his church attended and a person he sat on a board with.

Do we know about Sara&#039;s pastor. Is it front page news? What about her husbands politics? Is he anti-American? What about her college papers? Who are her fundraisers?

it certainly has been a double standard but, we don&#039;t have to go there with Sara Palin. Thanks the excellent judgement by John McCain, we have a candidate who has left a public trail of information from her positions representing the people. 

Thank you John.</description>

Please do some more &quot;research&quot;. The one about &quot;she pretended to have a baby, but itâ€™s actually her daughters child&quot; was &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; funny. *cough*</description>

You do realize, party aside, that Obama would fail the same vetting standards that you claim should have been applied to Palin?</description>

		<description>Palin has pulled together the base for McCain and MSM/Left-wing shit4brains are sending it into overdrive.  

When you think about it, is that what you really want to do, provide something to energize your opponents base.  Stupidity yes, Smart Politics No.

Palin and the Foam-at-the-mouth reaction is doing more to help McCain than anybody else would. When Obama has to argue he has more experience than Palin, you are in trouble.  What the hell has Obama ever done?  Name it?????

After McCain wins, the winners will point to Palin, and the losers to everyone else but themselves.</description>

I mean since according to you it wasn&#039;t killed it will be there right?  An 8 by 10 glossy will do.</description>

		<description>After a segment with NBC&#039;s Chuck Todd ended today, Republican consultant Mike Murphy and Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan were caught on a live mike ridiculing the choice of Sarah Palin.

&quot;It&#039;s over,&quot; said Noonan, and then responded to a question of whether Palin is the most qualified Republican woman McCain could have chosen.

&quot;The most qualified? No. I think they went for this â€” excuse me â€” political bullsh** about narratives,&quot; she said. &quot;Every time Republicans do that â€” because that&#039;s not where they live and it&#039;s not what they&#039;re good at â€” they blow it.&quot;

Murphy chimed in:

&quot;The greatness of McCain is no cynicism, and this is cynical.&quot;

I look for results. She killed the bridge and that is what matters. Unlike Obama who canâ€™t admit he was wrong on the troop surge she is willing to evaluate her position and do what is right.&lt;/i&gt;

First Pete, you&#039;re noting a distinct difference in what you wrote and what ChinNuts wrote. 
You do know that the bridge wasn&#039;t killed don&#039;t you? Those funds were used for other programs. I know not the point.

So if its OK to change one&#039;s mind without being a flipflopper, how can Barack Obama be criticized for accepting a compromise on a comprehensive energy plan that now includes drilling?

He&#039;d also like all of the oil drilled in America, to be sold only to Americans. Yet Republicans are against that. You know who isn&#039;t against that? Yep, the well-vetted Sara Palin. Alaska would die if the natural resources were sold off to the highest bidder without anyone money set aside for her state. She also admitted to liking Obama&#039;s plan for natural gas.</description>

<p>First Pete, you&#8217;re noting a distinct difference in what you wrote and what ChinNuts wrote.<br />
You do know that the bridge wasn&#8217;t killed don&#8217;t you? Those funds were used for other programs. I know not the point.</p>
<p>So if its OK to change one&#8217;s mind without being a flipflopper, how can Barack Obama be criticized for accepting a compromise on a comprehensive energy plan that now includes drilling?</p>
<p>He&#8217;d also like all of the oil drilled in America, to be sold only to Americans. Yet Republicans are against that. You know who isn&#8217;t against that? Yep, the well-vetted Sara Palin. Alaska would die if the natural resources were sold off to the highest bidder without anyone money set aside for her state. She also admitted to liking Obama&#8217;s plan for natural gas.</p>

What?!?!
The conservatives at Politico, WCCO, ADN, and the L.A. Times didnâ€™t get a say in the VP selection process? I am shocked.&lt;/i&gt;

Neither did those at McCain for President hence their haste to run up Alaska and START the vetting process two days ago. 

By the way, the Anchorage Daily News is the paper of record in Alaska. Its not a liberal rag in the least sense of the word.</description>

		<description>&quot;When did â€œvettingâ€ become synonymous with â€œpasses muster with crackpot left-wing commentersâ€.&quot;

About the same time McCain&#039;s gamble on his VP starting paying off big time... except, for the wrong party.  

Either McCain is dumb for introducing this much controversy into the race, or, he can&#039;t vet which doesn&#039;t speak volumes for his ability to build a cabinet around him.</description>

		<description>Audacity, spin all you want.  But, &lt;a href=&quot;http://wcco.com/realitycheck/reality.check.governor.2.808822.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Reality Check&lt;/a&gt; clearly states:

&lt;em&gt;&quot;ST. PAUL (WCCO) â€• John McCain chose Gov. Sarah Palin in part because of her maverick status in Alaska, including her willingness to oppose earmarks, but Palin worked the system as well as anyone when she was a mayor AND a governor. 

&quot;I didn&#039;t get into government to do the safe and easy things,&quot; Palin said. 

It&#039;s TRUE. Palin requested $198 million in earmarks for Alaska in next year&#039;s federal budget, which includes $25 million for Coastal Salmon Recovery and $3.2 million for sea lion biological research. 

As a mayor, Palin also struck Yukon gold in Washington. 

IN FACT, according to the watchdog group Taxpayers for Common Sense, Palin hired a Washington lobbyist to secure earmarks for tiny Wasilla, Alaska when she was mayor. The town of 6,715 received nearly $27 million in federal dollars from 2000 to 2003. That includes $1.9 million for public transit and $15 million for a rail line connecting Wasilla to the hometown of Alaska Senator Ted Stevens. 

And there&#039;s MORE. Palin gained fame, and notoriety, for taking on the Republican establishment, opposing in Alaska the infamous bridge to nowhere -- a symbol of wasteful Washington spending. 

But when she was running for governor in 2006, she supported it. &quot;&lt;/em&gt;

Rest of story, &lt;a href=&quot;http://wcco.com/realitycheck/reality.check.governor.2.808822.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;

&quot;Facts are stupid things.&quot;

Uncle Ronnie said it; Audacity, rePete, Walter, and Chestnut live it.</description>

		<description>According to her states newspaper The Anchorage Daily News,
http://www.adn.com/sarahpalin/story/511471.html
&lt;b&gt;The Alaska governor campaigned in 2006 on a build-the-bridge platform, telling Ketchikan residents she felt their pain when politicians called them &quot;nowhere.&quot; They&#039;re still feeling pain today in Ketchikan, over Palin&#039;s subsequent decision to use the bridge funds for other projects -- and over the timing of her announcement, which they say came in a pre-dawn press release that seemed aimed at national news deadlines.
&quot;I think that&#039;s when the campaign for national office began,&quot; said Ketchikan Mayor Bob Weinstein on Saturday. &lt;/b&gt;

So she was for it before she was against? 
How about some quotes?

&lt;i&gt;&quot;We need to come to the defense of Southeast Alaska when proposals are on the table like the bridge, and not allow the spinmeisters to turn this project or any other into something that&#039;s so negative,&quot; Palin said in August 2006, according to the Ketchikan Daily News.&lt;/i&gt;

&lt;i&gt;The Anchorage Daily News quoted her in October 2006 as saying she would continue state funding for the bridge. &quot;The window is now, while our congressional delegation is in a strong position to assist,&quot; she said.&lt;/i&gt;

Unlike McCain and ChinNuts, I can do basic research. We(Dems) got plenty on her that apparently you all will try to spin as being sexist when its really corruption and abusive.

Speak some more.</description>

		<description>Reformer?

She supported the Bridge to Nowhere.
Hired a big DC lobbying firm to win her small town millions in earmarks.
Currently under investigation for abuse of power.
Left her job as Mayor with her city in debt that wasn&#039;t there before she became Mayor.

Sounds like more of the same from the Republicans, or should I say McSame?
