THE SCUM ALSO RISES

Stinking Bag of Rancid Crap Joe Lieberman Shoots Crap From His Mouth, and We Liveblog It

Oh we hate you. We hate you. You are a stinking whining sanctimonious sack of death tampons and pus. You, Joe Lieberman, insult the dignity of roaches. You are a diarrhea diaper. Let’s liveblog your pathetic bullshit.

9:42 PM — Eeewwhooohh, Vinegar Joe is against partisanship … if it’s anti-McCain/Bush.
9:42 PM — You scum-sucking weasel, you’re not a Democrat. You’re an opportunist little creep.
9:43 PM — This is almost to difficult to liveblog.
9:45 PM — More Bushmill’s, please, waitress! Thank you thank you thank you.
9:48 PM — “God made John McCain, and he is his own man.” Then why did God have to make John McCain?
9:48 PM — Let’s point out the things Lieberman loves more than anything, as he whines and wobbles for the adulation of the Republican cultists. Joe Lieberman loves abortion, liberalism, taxes, and aborting Republicans. As soon as this speech is over, he’s going to perform a late-term abortion on Sarah Palin’s nine pregnant daughters.
9:51 PM — “She’s taken on the special interests and the political power brokers in Alaska.” Ha ha, this is Ted Stevens’ special lobbyist who got $127 million in earmarks for her snowbilly suburb in Alaska, through earmarks. She took them on! Sarah Palin took them on in a double-secret way, by representing them all, and taking all their money.
9:53 PM — OH YOU DUMB FUCKS YOU LEFT A GREEN SCREEN BEHIND LIEBERMAN. A million wacky YouTubes will bloom tomorrow, with all kinds of stupid calamity going on behind Lieberman’s dumb speech … video of him kissing Al Gore, whining about Prince records, and basically being a douche older and uglier than Yoda, minus The Force. Go to it, you nuts!
9:56 PM — Please really do these fun YouTube videos.
9:57 PM — Ha ha, Lieberman has been in the Senate for two decades, and John McCain has been in the Senate and the House for three decades, so these two proud reformers will magically clean up Washington by, uh, pretending they haven’t spent their whole lives being crooks in the Washington Crook Farm, against you, the American who has to have a job or whatever.
9:59 PM — Who wants to bet this withered box of trash will be the GOP veep nominee by Friday? We think it’ll be maybe early next week, but what the hell.

    Oh, and see, here I thought that you believed in a woman’s right to chose, Joe. I guess you won’t mind if McCain and Palin take that away, then?

  2. whatever_dc says at 10:46 pm, September 2nd, 2008

  3. What a bitch.

  5. badco/LoJ says at 10:46 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    That natural disaster 911 was teh suk.

  6. AnnieGetYourFun says at 10:47 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Natural disaster? EPIC MUTHAFUCKING FAIL.

  7. Every year, smokin’ joe looks more and more like a California Raisin.

  8. SayItWithWookies says at 10:47 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Joe and John — they’re both dedicated people who putz their country first.

  9. DieOnTheTurnpike says at 10:47 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    9/11 was a natural disaster?! Now the truth can be told.

  10. Monsieur Grumpe says at 10:47 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Why does he keep saying he’s a Democrat?

  11. Advocatus_Diaboli says at 10:47 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    yup, that about covers it.

  12. knoxtheharpy says at 10:47 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Vinegar Joe just called himself a Democrat. Is he serious?

  13. jasonelias says at 10:47 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    He’s digusting, I even hated him when he was on Gore’s ticket, hated him many years before that.

  14. NoWireHangers says at 10:48 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    What a weasely little opportunist fuck. When Obama wins this thing, it’ll be soooo good to see Liebs get his comeuppance.

  15. VivaLaCynthia says at 10:48 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    I wonder how many clothespins they had to put in the back of his head to hold those jowels back so the sound could leave ol’ Droopy McDoucheface’s mouth.

  16. chascates says at 10:48 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    He just wants someone, ANYONE to bomb Iran!

  17. SayItWithWookies says at 10:48 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Y’know — if I think of Joe Lieberman spying on me I may never get it up in my lifetime again.

  18. Seriously, stop saying that you’re a Democrat. You are not.

  19. Hate to break it to you, it’s not the democrats that are spending lots to destroy McCain’s record as a Maverick. It’s John McCain.

  20. whatever_dc says at 10:48 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    joe and john are gayer than bert and ernie!

  21. nietzscheprojectile says at 10:48 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Oh Ken, your filthy eloquence keeps me up. I’m not quite sure what to think of that.

  22. AnnieGetYourFun says at 10:48 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Interesting that he hasn’t gone after Hussein Obama. Think he will?

  23. tits.mcgee says at 10:48 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    all 3 of my cats just threw up.

  24. badco/LoJ says at 10:49 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    He speaks “as a Democrat” one more time…

  25. graceless says at 10:49 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Keram2: win.

  26. This is the best they can do? Use a Connecticut Jew to emphasize the fact that McCain isn’t that much of a partisan Republican? Yeah, I’m starting to feel pretty good about November now.

  27. God made only one John Sidney McCain. Except John Sidney McCain I and John Sidney McCain II.

  28. SayItWithWookies says at 10:49 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    “God made only one John McCain — and he is his own man.”
    Damn Joe — you still got that magic that got those results in 2000.

  29. VivaLaCynthia says at 10:49 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    I think there’s a separate noise being emitted from his jowels that the mic is picking up…

  30. AnnieGetYourFun says at 10:49 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Ha! A dig at Michael Moore kinda! That’s really something. Topical, too.

  31. “young man” = racial codeword?

  32. Tubs McGee says at 10:49 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    I’m glad he let us know that he’s not Michael Moore’s favorite Democrat. TWO TIMES. Just in case we didn’t get the “joke”.

  33. tacodaemon says at 10:49 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    That loud motherfucker is still shouting near the CNN microphones. YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH

  34. DieOnTheTurnpike says at 10:50 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    A Michael Moore joke! Classic!

  35. John McCain took on corrupt lobbyists? How? By hiring them for his campaign?

  36. I’ll give them this, that is the most realistic muppet I have ever seen.

  37. Smoke Filled Roommate says at 10:50 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Yeah, we get that you’re not Michael Moore’s favorite Democrat.

  38. Tito Puente says at 10:50 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Old Man has 47 pieces of flare on his chachees cowboy hat.

  39. I Am Not Your Gary Busey says at 10:50 pm, September 2nd, 2008

  40. knoxtheharpy says at 10:50 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Eloquence is no substitute for a record. Eh, Sarah Palin?

  41. Senator Palpatine is looking surprisingly lively

  42. VivaLaCynthia says at 10:50 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Oh, pleaaaase applaud Bill Clinton!!! YAY!!

  43. When will the cameras pan to the West Texas contingent’s kneejerk reaction to start tying the noose for the jewboy, but being talked out of it by Karl Rove…

  44. SayItWithWookies says at 10:51 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    “Then I’m Michael Moore’s favorite Democrat. Hnh hnh hnh. And you know that I’m not.”
    Making Jay Leno look like a savage wit.

  45. Is there a Republican man in that crowd that isn’t 30 pounds overweight?

  46. The RNC just applauded for Bill Clinton? The Republican party is officially dead.

  47. graceless says at 10:51 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Why is everything always all about the Clintons?

  48. whatever_dc says at 10:51 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    tits.mcgee: i just spurted vodka threw my nose and it HURTS!

  49. AnnieGetYourFun says at 10:51 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Oh, god. Did they all just clap for Clinton? What?

  50. Wait. Joe Leiberman is comparing the record of a Senator to that of a President? Yeah, that makes lots of sense.

  51. Monsieur Grumpe says at 10:51 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Did they just applaud Clinton?

  52. Joe is going to defend Palin… there goes the last scrap of a soul…

  53. TheSYNDICATE says at 10:51 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Quick, Holy Joe has put everyone to sleep. Ron Paul revolution should invade in 3.2.1…

  54. Did the RNC just cheer Bill Clinton? Did.. did that just happen?

  55. whatever_dc says at 10:51 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    oh dear zeus — he’s praising sarahcuda!!!!! i just threw up in my mouth!!! TWICE!!!

  56. Jesus, the way they’ve been talking about Welfare reform tonight, you’d think that they were able to get everyone a job and off of Welfare. Congrats, Republicans! There are no more poors!

  57. Does Joe have an upper set of teeth?

  58. SayItWithWookies says at 10:52 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Okay — he did get the RNC to applaud Bill Clinton. I will petition Satan to place him in one higher level of hell just for that.

  59. Joe seemed to hold back either a sob or a gag when he said McCain…..Palin ticket

  60. Smoke Filled Roommate says at 10:52 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Great Lady! Great Laaaaady!

  61. NoWireHangers says at 10:52 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    “The real ticket for change this year is the McCain/Palin ticket”

    GOOD GOD. These assholes will say anything! CHANGE? I need a drink…

  62. knoxtheharpy says at 10:52 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Okay, so clearly they’re going with the “breath of fresh air/take on Washington” meme with respect to the snowbilly.

  63. tits.mcgee says at 10:53 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    whatever_dc: don’t waste your vodka, you’re gonna need it to get through the next few minutes.

  64. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 10:53 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Wait, the Republicans keep saying that McCain can get things done.

    And yet none of them says what he has gotten done.

    Strange, that.

  65. No, Republicans just build pens for all of the journalists that they are having arrested.

  66. VivaLaCynthia says at 10:53 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    notapipe: Good point.

  67. Tito Puente says at 10:53 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Hottie…

  68. badco/LoJ says at 10:53 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    YAY for national unity! Fuck the Democrat Congress!

  69. SayItWithWookies says at 10:54 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    “These are tough times at home and we have dangerous enemies in the world.”
    Thank you, George W. Bush.

  70. Retreating from Iraq would have been a disaster for the USA. Unlike, say, the Iraq War.

  71. Smoke Filled Roommate says at 10:55 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    ‘Dangerous Enemies’? That would be you, Joe. YOU !!!

  72. They’re coming home in honor? WTF does that mean?

  73. Lionel Hutz Esq.: That’s because the only thing he’s ever gotten done is a broken campaign finance reform, and they hate that shit.

  74. whatever_dc says at 10:55 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    tits.mcgee: just refilled!

  75. Twinkletoes says at 10:55 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Who is this Surge? She won the war for us?! McCain / Surge 2008!

  76. VivaLaCynthia says at 10:55 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    What were the fucktards just chanting? “Chunky barber”?

  77. My high school’s pep rallies were louder and more lively than this

  78. gradgrind says at 10:55 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Of course we “don’t need more party unity,” Jo-Lie. Because that would be Michelle Bachman and Dubya in a closet, smooching furiously, trying to forget they don’t have another firend in the world.

    Oooh . . . “coming home in honor” from Iraq — “honor” is what we call “a casket” now? Jus’ askin’.

  79. Scarab: Joe proves that you can be completely toothless, and still be a bloodsucking cunt.

  80. SayItWithWookies says at 10:55 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    “And they’re coming home in honor.”
    I hope someone tells the Iraqi insurgents they’re losing.

  81. “Even with Lindsay Graham it’s been a pleasure.” Yeah, it’s always important to have a jew at your comedy roast.

  82. “Even with Lindsey Graham it was a pleasure”

    Oh snap! Looks like Vinegar Joe is sleeping on the couch tonight.

  83. AnnieGetYourFun says at 10:56 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    That’s right, Joe. Because supporting the “surge” means that we support our troops by keeping them in a war zone. They can come home NOW in honor, but if we had let them come hom earlier, oh! The SHAME! Thank goodness you were able to keep the stupid troops in a constant loop of redeployment.

  84. Monsieur Grumpe says at 10:56 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    My friends are watchening?

  85. SayItWithWookies says at 10:56 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    “John McCain will be a president our allies will trust and our enemies will fear.”
    Except Georgia and Russia, respectively.

  86. DieOnTheTurnpike says at 10:56 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    The Japanese leaders are especially fond of him… John’s ability to survive kamikaze missions is astonishing.

  87. No, Joe, we’re angry and frustrated that you’re such a douchebag…

  88. Did he just say Anne Frank?

  89. badco/LoJ says at 10:57 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Are they chanting “J-E-W”?

  90. What did Lindsay Graham do to Joe when they were traveling together? Grab his cock?

  91. Tito Puente says at 10:57 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Young John McCain, Joe Liberman, and Lindsay Graham backpacked through Europe after college and scored mad Canadian tail in the hostels.

  92. whatever_dc says at 10:57 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    never mind — i’m switching to everclear! and heroin! he’s appealing to his “fellow” democrats! what–there’s that many traitors in this country???

  93. Smoke Filled Roommate says at 10:57 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Scarab: As we’ve seen from this convention thus far, ‘Honor’ = Body bags and/or missing limbs.

  94. EnBuenOra says at 10:57 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Believe With Me!!!

  95. VivaLaCynthia says at 10:57 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    I think he also just got the RNC to cheer that people usually don’t want to vote for them…

  96. AnnieGetYourFun says at 10:57 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Scarab: “Honor” is code for “bodybags”. Goodness knows that Republicans love and honor a dead soldier more than one who is falling apart from PTSD.

    No, Joe, I am angry and frustrated with YOU. I’m good with the other side.

  97. Dreadful Gate says at 10:58 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Mel Gibson was on to something

  98. SayItWithWookies says at 10:58 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    I know one thing about people who say “trust me” as often as Lieberman has. You shouldn’t.

  99. Even the cameras are bored.

  100. “Unlike other Republican Senators, John McCain doesn’t try to fuck dudes when he has a wide stance. He’s straight where he stands.”

  101. mitch_philbin says at 10:58 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    I am a Democrat, Joey. And other Democrats are my friends. You, Mr Liarman, are no Democrat!!

  102. Fuck you Joe!

  103. What are “ordinary times” and why are we not in them?

  104. Whiskeybaby says at 10:59 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Would it be too much to ask that when Barry and Joe win, that their first order of business is shooting everyone in this room from a helicopter, in the snow? Even if it’s just with blanks?

  105. whatever_dc says at 10:59 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    when he first raised his hand — OFF HIS PENIS!

  106. Fear of a Black Reagan says at 10:59 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    This is some real meta shit. Stand up to the lobbyists. Get our government working. Isn’t the press all mad at Barry for being too meta? Jew Liberalman is so meta it’s practically trefah!

  107. Since the age of the 1700’s

  108. Catholics know - there’s no one as rabid as a convert.

  109. Is Jowly McDoucherson almost done? I’m not sure I can take much more…

    Why doesn’t Lieberman just tell it like it is: The scary black man yelled at me!

  110. PrincessButtercup says at 10:59 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    I’m not your friend, Buddy.

  111. Joe, you don’t appeal to any Democrats I know.

  112. iwillsavethispatient says at 11:00 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    gradgrind: The old Lie; Dulce et Decorum est \ Pro patria mori.

    And that’s Latin, folks.

  113. shortsshortsshorts says at 11:00 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Sorry, but.
    FUCK YOU LIEBERMAN YOU PANDERING FUCK HEAD.

    I will agree with you that we shouldn’t vote along party lines. This should probably help Barry in the long run.

  114. John McCain is a fucking idiot not to have gone with Lieberman as VP.

  115. knoxtheharpy says at 11:00 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    WALNUTS! always puts Country First, unlike that closet Muslim and raghead lover Barry Hussein Obama.

  116. Monsieur Grumpe says at 11:00 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Bomb Connecticut.

  117. SayItWithWookies says at 11:00 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    “My friends, I appeal to independents, Democrats and Republicans.”
    Okay — half out of three ain’t bad.

  118. Oh, Joementum, you fool. No matter which Americans come together, we can’t make John McCain a great president. That requires magical powers possessed only by British wizards from Hogwarts.

  119. Wow, the cameras have found all three minorities in the hall tonight. That must have been difficult!

  120. MplsMama: 9/11 9/11 9/11

  121. Man, apparently Republicans? Not so into applauding Jewish Rabbis.

  122. tits.mcgee says at 11:01 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    jon stewart woooooooooooo

  123. OMG it’s Raymond Burr!!!!!

  124. graceless says at 11:01 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Why’s the rabbi doing a benediction?

  125. SayItWithWookies says at 11:01 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    It’s a Jew doubleheader! And the Republican bullpen is exhausted.

  126. VivaLaCynthia says at 11:01 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Tito Puente: God, I hope someone turns that premise into a movie.

  127. DieOnTheTurnpike says at 11:02 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Joe brought another Jew to speak! This is indeed a bitchslap to the foaming-at-the-mouth Jeebus lovers everywhere.

  128. obfuscator says at 11:02 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Isn’t there some RNC bylaw prohibiting two Jews from speaking back-to-back? Oy vey!

  129. pixiestyx says at 11:02 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    What a turncoat little shit. He asks people (Democrats) not to vote their party but the person? Does he not realize that many people joined the Democratic party to vote for Obama in the primary because they didn’t give a shit about party politics but wanted to support the man? What a dumbshit.

  130. VivaLaCynthia says at 11:02 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Can we liveblog the Daily Show now? Please??

  131. SayItWithWookies says at 11:03 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    CNN cuts to the people streaming for the exits. Take your time, people — the traffic won’t be that bad.

  132. graceless says at 11:03 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Boy, he’s no tiny tim, is he?

  133. Monsieur Grumpe says at 11:03 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    I noticed they kept showing the same balck guy over and over. He looked bored.

  134. Tito Puente says at 11:03 pm, September 2nd, 2008

  136. Smoke Filled Roommate says at 11:03 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    No ordinary election– Hell, we’ve got spooks, Bengali children, amputees and Jews like me! We are NORMAL, and we are announcing right here that we are appreciative and accepting of all [once deemed] rejects! We love everything in our condescending way!

  137. shortsshortsshorts says at 11:03 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Country Fuuuurst

  138. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 11:04 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Let me see if I got the theme of tonight right. Should Iran invade, John McCain will have himself tortured for 5 1/2 years.

  139. SayItWithWookies says at 11:04 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    This is beautiful — a stadium half-full of Baptists has to listen to a benediction that’s more than two-and-a-half minutes long. Pain.

  140. And so ends ‘Boring Speech Day’ at he GOP convention.

  141. obfuscator says at 11:05 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    SayItWithWookies: The traffic to the men’s room stalls will be NUTS TO BUTTS… literally.

    Recessional: Where the Boys Are

  143. gradgrind says at 11:06 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Monsieur Grumpe: HEY STOP!!! Connecticut’s hot for Obama. We need those electoral votes. Sure you hate rabid dogs, but don’t take it out on the humans.”

  144. I just threw Barry a few more bucks! Shame on the state of Connecticut for electing this has-been repugnant windbag piece of shit.

  145. Man, the background during the benediction is way cheesy. A sunset behind a flag? Man, dudes, you’re so awesome.

    Hey, you know what would be good to show behind these Republicans? A spinning animated gif of a yellow sign showing a guy working. And maybe a rainbow colored divider bar. Then we can all listen to your awesome Toby Keith embedded MIDI. (Er, well, maybe not him, some other racist who HASN’T endorsed Obama.)

  146. Monsieur Grumpe says at 11:06 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    shortsshortsshorts:
    Cuntry fist

  147. Between the screaming idiots and the throat-clearing, this is truly a speech to remember. I also like the attempt to shout “USA! USA!” for no particular reason.

    I want to see George Washington in his farewell dress.

    Well, to his credit he did get the RNC to applaud global warming. Or maybe they think the higher sea levels would make it harder for the immigrants to come here.

  179. PeteJayhawk v2.0 says at 11:22 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Magister: Not to get all serious here, but it alternately amuses/angers me when I hear about how the Palins are somehow to be commended for keeping their kids and not aborting them. The implication is that pro-choice women go around aborting fetuses left and right.

    I don’t think that anyone WANTS abortions to happen. That’s why we’re in favor of pragmatic sex ed, distributing condoms, and the like….right?

  184. VivaLaCynthia says at 11:24 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    PeteJayhawk v2.0: Indeed. Also worth noting is the terminology the campaign has chosen–e.g., Bristol Palin has chosen to keep the baby. Nice that she has that choice, huh?

  185. The 3-Legged Man says at 11:25 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Pfffffffffft. Joe, give us just three examples of what Palin reformed? Please, don’t make the Enquirer do alllllll the heavy lifting.

  188. PeteJayhawk v2.0: yes. someone i used to work with, when he found out i was pro-choice, asked me ’so, are you pro-abortion?’ and i’d never heard anyone say that before i immediately thought of people yelling ‘yay! abortions!’ no. no one is pro-abortions. we are pro keeping them legal.

  189. PeteJayhawk v2.0 says at 11:27 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Thanks, David Gregory–yes, this is a friggin’ awkward convention. We all understood that a while back.

  191. did anyone see a RNC video that was shown some time between 7 and 8 pm central time that had a female narrator saying something like ‘i was there’ and they showed MLK speaking and the also the twin towers falling? because it is the worst thing ever and we all need to watch it for its horribleness so someone please maybe find it and link?

  198. “death tampons and pus” = my new band name

  199. PeteJayhawk v2.0 says at 11:36 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Smoke Filled Roommate: Up until last year, the whole abortion thing was something I cared about on a larger, more abstract level…then last year my sister had one. I’m sure not happy about it, but it was probably the best decision for everyone involved, including the abusive, possessive asshole that donated his sperm for it.

    Nobody wanted that shit to happen, but happen it did. And the implication that my sister’s choice was somehow immoral, wrong, or criminal makes me want to punch Jonah Goldberg in the face (not sure why him, but it’s gotta be someone). And I don’t even really like my sister.

  200. PeteJayhawk v2.0: According to legend, one of the big reasons that W beat Kerry was because Rove targeted specific areas with a high concentration of religious right and he took it down to such a localized market (or congregation) that it took the media by surprise.

    I think all of this focus on anti-abortion, anti-media, non-elitist, pregnant teens, shotgun weddings and field dressing a moose-type rhetoric could be focused toward a very specific subset of voters and though it may not have been McCain’s original intention with the pick, the whole RNC might just be a long attempt to motivate those voters.

  201. PeteJayhawk v2.0 says at 11:38 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    grendel: Heh. Good point. But seriously, there’s no political capital to be had by publicizing that. The great “undecideds”, retarded though they are, don’t care about shit like that. They care about the superficial bullshit.

  202. He is a vile, scum-sucking whore. Why people just don’t walk up to him and slap his scrotal face is beyond me.

  203. benj-thewrathofgod says at 11:40 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Ok. Lieberman is a tax and spend aborting pro war liberal. Shouldn’t that make everyone at the Ron Paul Holiday Inn Party just pissed as hell right now? Shouldn’t someone be making an oil painting of Dr. Paul wearing Constitution armor and riding a white horse and lancing Lieberman?

  204. Ilikepigeons says at 11:42 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Jesus just told me to go to bed.
    No ambien tonight thanks to Lieberman.
    Yawn. nighty night.

  205. knitgrrl: i would so see that band.

  206. PeteJayhawk v2.0 says at 11:43 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Magister: All that focus really hits home - I live in Kansas, so I see the effects of that shit. Luckily, I live in Lawrence so I don’t have to deal with it. Maybe I’m unduly influenced by reading “What’s the Matter With Kansas”, but I am continually flummoxed by Kansans’ (as a whole) attachment to the far right. Obama’s the guy that will ease their tax burden and fix the shit that Bush did, but they focus on how he’ll raise taxes for the rich and somehow extrapolate that to themselves, while including the whole standard “TAX N SPEND LIBRUL” thing…..despite the fact that the Republicans are the ones who tax and spend.

  207. PeteJayhawk v2.0 says at 11:45 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    benj-thewrathofgod: Fuck the Paultards, shouldn’t that be pissing off the Republicans? Lieberman is Chuck Hagel - he doesn’t REALLY agree with them, but a couple of issues make up for it. Sorry, that’s not as clear as I’d like; I’m getting pretty drunk.

  208. The 3-Legged Man says at 11:45 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    grendel: Actually, this is a little known fact: She has had a team of experts secretly going out at night and drawing huge dot-and-dash lines where she’s creating a new Canadian/Alaskan border. I understand they’ve claimed many square miles of land already in the Yukon while the border crossing guy was asleep. You can see it on google Earth, I believe.

  209. The 3-Legged Man says at 11:47 pm, September 2nd, 2008

    Did anyone vet Lieberman when he was on the Dem ticket? Heads should roll for that one. No forgiveness, no forgetness (or whatever the word would be).

  210. I’m pretty sure every Connecticutian (is that a word?) that ever voted for Joe Lieberman should, by all rights, be kicked in the crotch over and over again until they vomit blood for what they’ve done.

    PeteJayhawk v2.0:
    I’m sorry for my cynical remarks. I am completely Pro-Choice and atheist. I myself have had the unfortunate experience of electing to have an abortion about 10 years ago. (I’ll be 36 tomorrow). I was not financially stable enough to raise a child at that time, and that fact weighed heavily on my decision. I would have had to seek government assistance to raise my child, which I did not want to do. I do not speak to my family, so no help there.

    Sorry for joking around about a truly serious issue (honestly).

  213. Tito Puente says at 11:54 pm, September 2nd, 2008

  214. PeteJayhawk v2.0 says at 12:01 am, September 3rd, 2008

    Smoke Filled Roommate: No no no no, don’t apologize. I was just talking about how it went, for me personally, from an abstract political issue to something personal.

    That said, I’ll be first in line to make tasteless jokes about it. But still, the thing that just infuriates me is the idea that pro-choice people are PRO-abortion. Nobody is pro-abortion…well, maybe abortion doctors. But even then, I bet most of them would trade their practice in a second for a world in which people don’t need to seek abortions.

  220. thwanger: It’ll be perfect, my new band. Almost as good as the comic book I’m going to write.

  221. Republican conventioneers are all cheering because McCain is going to clean up Washington and Sarah Palin is a reformer. They can’t fill up the auditorium and they cannot fill in the missing blanks that Republicans are responsible for the Washington mess, debt, war, etc., in the first place and the corrupt Alaska politicians in Mooseland are and were also Republicans. Oh, well, let’s just build a Bridge to Wasilla with those $27 million in earmarks. Tomorrow belongs to the fat Tina Fey impersonator and you baby-killers will be sorry then, by God.

    What to do? Uhh, wonkifrenz! But now this. Joe’s anti-snarkitude kryptonite is a tough one but big ups all.

    Feeling pretty teary and ozymandial right now.

    Proceed to the seventh ring of hell, Enchanted Forest. Fk. “Commonwealth”?? We could dissect that a bit too.

  230. Monsieur Grumpe: Joe calls himself a Democrat because, among the New Haven insurance companies which fund his campaign with jizillions dollars, a plaintiff’s personal injury lawyer who is willing to settle for pennies on the buck is called a simpering pussy, i.e. a Democrat. A plaintiff’s lawyer who won’t is a narco-terrorist, pro-islamic, jihadist and, it is rumored, will soon find him/herself on the “no fly” list. Simple.
