It's even better than that. I heard on the radio this morning that they're going to start running ads about how he's not Hillary. :lol:

In addition to the 'not Hillary' ad, they're running one featuring that Wisconsin DNC delegate who was stripped of her status after announcing she's supporting McCain after Hillary lost.

That woman is a complete tool :banghead:

Thread on VP choice.

I picked a few random quotes and they all happened to be bashing Obama by simple name calling (Obomba, empathising on the Hussein part, ...). Aren't you supposed to be adult to be able to vote in the States?

Physically, yes.
Mental development is another story.

The sad thing is that I could put together better arguments for McCain or against Obama than either the clowns posting the insults or the tools repeating the same bullshit they heard Hannity say have done.

Shit, one issue that'd play well here in a pro McCain post would be his support for gun rights, yet none of those tools have even brought it up.

Another would be abortion, as this area is heavily 'pro life'.
Some of them do try that, but the attempts are so over the top that even most pro lifers think they're crazy for claiming Obama supports infanticide.

Btw I meant to vote for Yes. I didn't read the vote entirely and thought it was Should I stop. Keep up the good work!!!

*bows*

Thanks.

Honestly, I forgot just how much fun it was to play with pretentious assholes on message boards.

The only problem is keeping the snark within the user guidelines.

I'm sure this post I made will be deleted once the target complains, but I'm sure he got the message. :twisted:
I *could* provide sources, but I won't for the simple reason that you won't read them.
If you did, that'd challenge your 'Hannitized' world view, and that's fatal to the simple minded.

As far as watching TV goes, I'm surprised you have the brains to successfully pick your nose, let alone work a computer*, but wonders will never cease.

*80's 'geek points' for those who recognize the phrase and where it came from. :)
Once I realized that these assholes are a never ending source of chewtoys, the job became a lot easier. :D

Chewing on assholes doesn't sound particularly sanitary.

Probably not, but after getting my own ass handed to me a few times here, it's nice to be on the 'giving' end for a change. :)

Actually, I think they're referring to his tendency to say things rashly, unlike John McCain who would never ever say anything rash, like bear-baiting Russia.

Of course it's not rash when McCain does it.
The 'bear baiting' is premeditated, considering that his chief foreign policy adviser is a fucking *paid lobbyist* for Georgia.

Though I will note that the same adviser was fairly prominent in PNAC, so it probably didn't take much to make him see Georgia's side.
