A couple of weeks ago the McCain campaign launched “Citizens for McCain,” an initiative headed by anarchist Sen. Joe Lieberman and designed to woo disenchanted Democrats towards WALNUTS! Let’s put that in better perspective: a Democratic-caucusing Senator and former Democratic vice presidential candidate is literally leading the effort to bleed the Democratic party to death. But Grampa Joe is not alone! Over the weekend, the McCain campaign released a list of 30 “prominent Democratic and unaffiliated leaders and activists who have joined ‘Citizens for McCain.’” One of the Important Leaders on the list is “Former Democratic gubernatorial candidate Philip Frye (West Virginia).” It turns out that this “Philip” — pictured here — prefers “Icky” over his Christian name, and ran for governor of West Virginia as a Democrat, as a stunt, to piss off Governor Bob Wise, who was sleeping with his wife. Joe Lieberman should just quit now, because he won’t find any Democratic leaders more Prominent than this guy.
Frye’s so prominent, in fact, that the Daily Show traveled to West Virginia to mock him in 2003:
As you can see, Frye doesn’t go bragging about his high ranking within the Democratic party. He’s charmingly modest, such as when he tells the Daily Show, “I’m not qualified to run our great state, or have any hopes whatsoever of winning an election.” What a peach!
The nosy Charleston Gazette asked the McCain campaign to comment about Frye’s inclusion on this list, as if Frye’s one-time campaign “to be a sheer nuisance to Bob Wise” for fucking his wife wasn’t good enough for Prominent status:
Jeff Sadoski, a spokesman for the national McCain campaign, said Monday, “This is a list of people who are known in different states, as Democrats or independents. They include elected officers and leaders in the Democratic Party. They were prominent Democrats.”
Sadowski said Frye was “someone who has run statewide as a Democrat.”
Asked how the McCain campaign chose people to put on the list of “prominent” supporters, Sadowski said, “We did research. We reviewed them.”
According to hearsay, Lieberman is now hard at work recruiting Ed Hale for an official position, as some sort of blockbuster follow-up to Frye.
Know Hope.

Fancy seeing West Virginia here!
Who’s Bender supporting?
My eyes! My eyes!
This is so good it has to be fattening….
given their recent track record of vetting endorsements and fundraisers, i can only imagine who they choose for vpotus! vermin supreme? ted haggard?
I’m afeerd that I prefer “Icky” over my Christian name, too. And my elite liberal Muslim one.
Hell yeah he’s a prominent Democrat — wasn’t he the old guy in Quest for Fire?
Don’t offend him by offering food. Merely, place the sandwich on top of the refuse can nearby, so he knows its there, and then leave without saying good bye.
I’m sure getting Libtards to support WALNUTS will be very easy when his own party struggles to back his ass. This should provide for pure, unadulterated entertainment.
Frye looks too much like the Tow truck driver from Harold and Kumar Goes to White Castle.
If his wife looks anything like Malin Ackerman then I can understand why the gov would want to bang her, but if she looks like her hubby then it must be super slim pickings in West Virginnie.
[re=18309]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: (internet trolls are of course excluded from this estimate, but they are illegitimate-swine anyway).
[re=18311]ManchuCandidate[/re]: I WAS JUST going to say that.
[re=18296]El Bombastico[/re]: Damn you Bombasto – you got there before me.
Can I at least have credit for calling him a Frye-hole?
Only the creme rises to the top. That and other things that float.
OMG, I had actually forgotten that Lil Joe was on the ticket way back when. Jesus Christ on a motherfucking pogostick.
Why is Steven Wright supporting McCain and using an alias?
[re=18311]ManchuCandidate[/re]: She’s quite a looker…

I liked Philip J Fry better in Futurama.
…WoW Gallagher has really lost it!

[re=18328]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: …and its nice to see Boss Hog has finally found work after the “Dukes of Hazard”!

Is this guy going to give the keynote address in Saint Paul?
[re=18311]ManchuCandidate[/re]: The pickings actually tend to be obese. I had to move away for college before I started seeing girls I had any desire to lose my virginity to.
[re=18311]ManchuCandidate[/re]: Dammit. Beat me to it.
Why do people make fun of West Virginians?
[re=18336]graceless[/re]: That’s the first line of a joke, right?
[re=18296]El Bombastico[/re]: [re=18316]WIDTAP[/re]: Does this mean McCain is the Professor? The problem, however, arises when we remember that Richard M. Nixon’s head is still President of Earth.
[re=18338]StrangelyBrown[/re]: See video.
There are certainly a lot of “formers” on Lieberman’s list. Funny, I thought the unemployed tended to stay true Democrats.

When is WALNUTS! getting Mary Carey’s endorsement?
By that logic, Stephen Colbert is both a prominent Democrat and prominent Republican.
[re=18311]ManchuCandidate[/re]: Sadly, she does not. Being of solid Roman stock, she has a very prominent rudder. Some guys get all hot over that. She does have a full set of choppers, though, which must make her quite the novelty in Wes Virjinny.

Paste it into your browser. I friggin’ through with all the href crap.
Ted Nugent has really let himself go…..
Two things: 1). I want to see Mrs. Icky. ‘Cause unless Icky’s let himself go the last few years, Mrs. Icky must be quite a sight. 2). We we to descend into his basement, we would finid more firearms than a national guard armory, thousands of rounds of ammo, food and water for a year, and at least five kilos of hydroponic dope. In short, he’s every Republican’s dream
[re=18346]edgydrifter[/re]: Oooo! hyperlinks work otto-mattikly! Tarnation, don’t that beat all.
We always wondered about Icky’s collection of children’s shoes…Also, this is from a state that Dick Cheney makes fun of, for chrissakes. Note that we have not yet seen the Zell Miller endorsement.
When we, sted “we we” as sent
what’s that third eye on david crosby’s forehead?
God does not make mistakes
[re=18346]edgydrifter[/re]: A) That’s quite a catch for Icky
B) When did Icky move out of Val Kilmer’s buddy’s closet??
“Ms. Mascia-Frye worked as the director of European operations for the West Virginia Development Office.” What the hell is WV sending to Europe? Bizarro incest porn???
Meh…I’d trust him more than Liebermann.
THIS is what happens when you grow vegetables in human fecal matter. Heed the warning, communes!
I use to intern for Bob Wise and beside that whole tendency to fuck other people’s spouse while he himself was married, and, of course, not managing to secure enough political clout to govern effectively, well, lemme tell ya, he is a pretty great guy!
He had the best West Virginia jokes too, and a penchant for the repeating the phrase “don’t want to shoot our load” at every opportunity without the slightest hint that he knew what it meant. I found it endearing, but that’s the type of person I am.
[re=18365]mookworthjwilson[/re]: I know someone who’s worked in that office for years. Basically, they try to talk Euro companies into balance of tax breaks vs dealing with the inhabitants.
So, am I correct to infer that West Virginia Governor Bob Wise has been banging Nadine?
OMG, the Dems are so screwed: According to the list Mendenhall City Clerk Judi May (Mississippi) is one of the prominent Democrats supporting McCain. How can Obama hope to overcome such heavyweight support for Ms. Iseman’s boy-toy?
Definition of “prominent”
Adjective
1. standing out from the surroundings; noticeable
He is certainly prominent. I can’t imagine the crowd where he blends. I really don’t want to imagine the crowd where he blends.
The supporters are all formers because they used to be somebodies, now they’re just bitters.
umm i think i love this guy! how long till he’s out stumping for mccain?
[re=18305]SayItWithWookies[/re]: No, you have to go back farther. I think he was one of the younger family members in the original ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre’.
George Bluth Sr. is apparently still a fugitive.
sweethearts, it’s just politics. it’s rough, be tough.
better now?
Between this guy, Joe Lieberman, and Hillary supporters for McCain, I am getting confused. Are these strategems of the McCain camp to get Democrats to vote for him, or plants by Obama people to make McCain’s campaign look stupid? The latter makes slightly more sense.
[re=18412]slavojzizek[/re]: See, because you’re a typical male, you’re not just “thinking” about this, but “over-thinking.” In trawling around the inert-tubes, I’ve discovered the secret of what’s happening. It was spelled out for me by a blogger who goes by the handle “Violet Socks,” and here’s how she managed to change my entire world-view:
“What I love so much about this comment is that it was clearly designed by men to appeal to what they think women want. It’s like those web themes “designed for women” that look like boxes of douche — all pink and lavender with pictures of flowers on them. See, women don’t think; we feel. We emote. We listen to Hillary’s voice and pay attention to what we feel she’s feeling. And then we go right out and buy that douche so we, too, can feel feminine and fresh.”
And that’s why so many of them will vote for McCain. “See, women don’t think…. we go right out and buy that douche.”
Visit: http://www.reclusiveleftist.com./ just for shits and giggles. Perhaps it’ll change your world-view too.
[re=18412]slavojzizek[/re]: Nothing makes sense. Nothing at all. That’s why ‘merica’s here.
[re=18425]Canuckledragger[/re]: The Canadian cannot understand this!!! Damn you Canadian and your articulate use of misleading double-negatives!!!!
Next you’ll be speaking in iambic pentameter.
But is the icky…sticky?
What the hell is the matter with Connecticut? Why is Lieberman still around? Answer me, people; you insurance-selling folk. Why did you vote for Joe Lieberman instead of Ned Lamont? What are you, actuarially insane? Don’t you see that such a policy is laden with risk and impossible to underwrite?
[re=18296]El Bombastico[/re]: Nixon’s head in a jar, obvs.
[re=18374]snig[/re]: Well, he does have a prominent forehead.
[re=18425]Canuckledragger[/re]: I guess the worldview-shattering process described is aided by this device:

Dear McCain campaign:
You know, “opposition research” means that we are supposed to do the digging up of your wackiness so we can use it for our campaign.
But thanks for doing it for us. It frees us up to research how you flip-flop on every major issue like a freshly piked halibut.
Carry on.
Your friend,
Barack “Barry” Obama
p.s. Lovely sale on green backdrops at the second hand campaign store these days….
[re=18548]DangerousLiberal[/re]: WALNUTS is easier to slime than a ghoul out of “The Ghostbusters.”
My favorite West Virginia story ever…
I was working Customer Service and a customer was mad I couldn’t reconnect her account without a credit or debit card on file. When I told her I couldn’t override it, she said she didn’t have a bank account, and was going to have all her friends cancel as well, because none of them have bank accounts either.
WEST VIRGINIA: We have money orders!
Did I miss it or has nobody made any Bozo the Clown cracks?
[re=18346]edgydrifter[/re]: Aw, it’s a cute big-ol’ nose!
Hell,there’s only 30 on the list, we should have make-funnery on each and every one. This could be a series.
I didn’t read the article. I just like seeing my name here. Makes me feel famous.
Ha ha… West Virginians can’t even spell “Houston”.
Better put that guy back in Cryosleep
He’s always looking for that I.C. Wiener.
If that is what Phil Frye looks like, I can only imagine how cute his wife is..
Knock it off! What do you think you’d look like if you were strained through a sheet?
[re=20245]Matthew Crunt[/re]: Actually, he was carried around in some crack whores mouth for three hours!
For those curious, here are the results from that Dem primary in West Virginia:
Joe Manchin 149,362 52.7
Lloyd Jackson 77,052 27.2
Jim Lees 40,161 14.2
Lacy Wright, Jr 4,963 1.8
Jerry Baker 3,009 1.1
James Baughman 2,999 1.1
Phillip “Icky” Frye 2,892 1.0
Louis Davis (the dude featured in the Daily Show report) 2,824 1.0
Way to stick it to him, Icky!
