When asked on a conference call why John McCain hasn’t addressed the 22% drop in the stock market this week, moron campaign manager Rick Davis responded, “There’s very little a candidate for president can say and very little the president can say about what’s happening in the stock markets except hope that they correct themselves.” We’ll grant him that indeed, there is very little a politician or elected leader can do to fix a collapsing world/entire theory of economics. But… “hope that they correct themselves,” WHAAA? Does he realize that the seven most powerful world leaders are meeting this weekend to coordinate a GLOBAL MONEY RESPONSE to our current LOSS OF ALL GLOBAL MONEY? Whatever! Barack Obama is a terrorist, Davis suggests, so everyone just go buy an iPod and some dildos and quitcher bitchin. [Ben Smith]

Like we needed another reason to consider Davis an incompetant douche. Well done, man. At least you fucked up on a friday afternoon.
Well, his whole life, someone else has fixed his problems, so that’s the way he thinks the world works.
i have a good idea of where to stick my dildo, and rick davis might just be into it. apparently he LIKES getting fucked in the ass.
Davis and Schmidt will soon be retiring to the campaign consultant tard-farm with Joe Trippi and Bob Shrum.
Another dildo? My wife is going to start asking questions, Jim.
There’s something far more sinsister afoot here. The same party that manuevered their way into office on a diabolically brilliant, underhanded strategy two terms in a row now fucks things up on a daily basis? I think not. Wake up people…
We are truly a nation of whiners. Why can’t we be happy with our hobo bindles, intemperate and retarded elected new world order leaders, and no moneyz? What do we want? Homes? Food? Whiney elitists and their mental recessions.
Just keep talking, Rick. Don’t. Stop. Talking.
Anybody know a good place to get a coffin?
But wait a minute! I thought gramps WAS going to fix it by spending $300 Billion (this is good new spending not bad new spending like That One would do) to move all the bad loans from the banks to the U.S. Treasury and then all the retirees and simple, er common people would be happy and the world would be good again like when Ronnie was sleeping through cabinet meetings.
Good point, Rick, might as well put your efforts where they can do some good, like pouring gasoline on the angry, ugly fires of hatred and division. Douchebag.
Did the entire McCain campaign have chips installed that makes them say the worst things at the most inappropriate times?
There is something very wrong with that man’s head. And not just the thoughts in it, but the shape of it and the way it is attached to his body.
Okay- today/this week sucked. But this is funny. If you don’t laugh you’re a nuke lovin’ goddam commie gay freak.

Is that the last nail in the coffin of the McCain campaign? Maybe the last necessary one — though I’m sure they’ll keep hammering them in until November 4.
Davis is correct in saying that there’s very little the president can say: that’s exactly what we got from Chimpy this morning. And remember, Juan hasn’t seen the “Economics 101″ Powerpoint yet, because economics is one of the things he wishes he knew more about.
How can they find time to talk about that economy thingy dingy when they’re too busy giving out minute by minute updates on Obama and Ayers plan to gay marry in Connecticut and terror bomb post offices?
http://thesebastards.blogspot.com/
Davis is in the tank for Obama. He now believes in hope.
Bunch of whiners, obviously.
McCrankee could, in the least, have said that the economy was fundamentally sound! No, wait.
NEW STRATEGY: Downplay your weakness on economic issues by saying that presidents don’t have much control over the economy.
He’s basically forfeiting the economy debate to Barry and just trying to minimize the bleeding.
But, but… I thought FLASHBACKS! was The Fixer. That’s what he told us a couple weeks ago, right before he had to deign to fly to Mississippi and debate that there uppity nigra.
[re=129885]V572625694[/re]: It’s always painful to hear Bush speak, but his comments on the economy have been driving me to drink more heavily than ever, and I didn’t think that that was possible.
“I know that [something about people feeling bad]. And I understand that. That’s because [something is bad]. But things [will be less bad in some way].”
Le sigh.
[re=129877]2goats[/re]: Obama HUSSEIN is a terrorist Muslin. That is all that matters.
[re=129886]Miller[/re]: yeah, that s an issue i need to hold a rally in wisconsin to go over so we can get our racial hate up!!!
Just be grateful the McCain campaign didn’t say what they’re thinking:
“Between the economic collapse and the race hate we’re stirring up, good luck governing, Obama!”
[re=129898]obfuscator[/re]: the last new strategy: we are turning the page on the economy and focusing on That One’s character? I guess that didn’t work so well?
About these world leaders meeting this weekend…I am hoping against hope we get a leftover Paultard reaction video to the latest meeting of the New World Order.
[re=129882]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: Yes, he looks like a Ken doll whose head has been wrenched off and stuck back on, but you can never make it fit right again.
What does Rick Davis look like?
A platypus?
Howard the Duck?
Pez?
A botched circumcision?
I can’t pick.
[re=129906]Doglessliberal[/re]: http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5j9YDTLWNOCPajU80ZrttdJwCeATwD93NQH880
[re=129905]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: Wow. I never realized it before. This is the “Herb and Jamaal” presidency.
I hope the 90 year old woman who shot herself after being afraid she was going to be evicted by Freddie Mac, uh, “self-corrects”, you lobbyist scum.
[re=129911]Doglessliberal[/re]: Given the expression on Davis’s face, I’d wager he’s backed into one of Jim’s aforementioned dildos. The one that requires two 9-volt batteries.
Bring me the head of Ken! [pounds fist on table] On a stick!
[re=129905]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: You forgot: The American People are [something generically not-weak]! And that’s how we’re going to [do stuff].
I mentioned this earlier, but here’s an honest question for all you philosophy majors out there (you know who you are): Is it actually possible to experience “auto-schadenfreude”? Like unexpected reveling in the misery of others…who are making you miserable?
[re=129914]Worlds End[/re]: oh right, like that was an error. Jesus.
[re=129912]magic titty[/re]: Ken’s gay boyfriend, Billy. Or all of the above. They all seem so right.
[re=129905]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: So you’re saying that Still-President Bush’s remarks have at least one positive impact?
He also looks like Mark Foley’s gay cousin.
[re=129912]magic titty[/re]: Absolutely not like a platypus!
[re=129922]Doglessliberal[/re]: Upstate NY hasn’t liked Community Organizers since the Saul Alinsky/Kodak flap.

The McCain campaign is losing why? Oh, that’s right, no ideas, no leadership, “nothing we can do…we live in a world of self correcting markets, nations and things.” And they say BHO is inexperienced and not ready to lead? The NYT calls today’s WANUTS ad “paint peeling”. Hopey’s gotta respond…run pieces of the Keating video they have up on the web, run something questioning WALNUTS’ judgement…stay in the arena ’cause the game ain’t over yet.
[re=129928]Platypus[/re]: Sorry!
Is there a Wonketeer named ‘Broken Toe’? Because that description fits as well, but I don’t want to offend…
[re=129934]magic titty[/re]: Stay clear of owls, too. You don’t want to mess with Big Avian.
[re=129922]Doglessliberal[/re]: It said on msnbc they don’t know how it got through multiple proofreadings, needless to say i just laughed.
[re=129934]magic titty[/re]: Apology accepted!
He kinda looks like Moral Orel’s abusive and alcoholic and misogynistic and misanthropic father who also happens to Summer Eve his ass daily.
Did I mention he doesn’t look like a platypus?
I stopped whining when I skipped the article and went straight for the Craig Ferguson Betty White video. I love me some Betty. Especially when she calls Sarah Palin a crazy bitch.
Republicans are all about innocent mistakes.
[re=129939]Worlds End[/re]: yeah, right.
[re=129943]Gopherit v2.0[/re]: [re=129939]Worlds End[/re]:
”No question this is an honest mistake innocently done,” said Edward McDonough, the Democratic commissioner. ”We catch almost everything.”
”This was a typo,” said Republican Commissioner Larry Bugbee. ”We have three different staff members who proof these things and somehow the typo got by us.”
BULLSHIT
[re=129947]Doglessliberal[/re]: I’ll be satisfied when John McCain’s name is misspelled as Dickbag McGee.
[re=129955]magic titty[/re]: Angry McAneurysm
Wow, he’s a font of teh stupid. He just said that McCain was responsible for the failure of the first bailout bill. You know, where the DOW dropped almost 800 points?
http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/1008/Davis_McCain_blew_up_bailout.html
[re=129958]Doglessliberal[/re]: Rethug Commish Bugbee is just mad his last name sucks.
George is impotent? Well, we’re fucked now.
[re=129912]magic titty[/re]: No I’ve got it! He looks like Hermie the Elf from that creepy christmas Rudolph cartoon! Google image “Hermie the Elf” hee hee hee…
[re=129962]SayItWithWookies[/re]: It’s a Phil Spector wall of sound. They try to garble enough bullshit over a few weeks time, in hopes no one can coherently recall or record it.
[re=129969]Beetletheknee[/re]: But Hermie is a pleasing childhood memory. Rick Davis has more of a life-ending, nightmare quality. He’s sort of … blond Gargamel.
[re=129883]irisheyes[/re]: That was pretty funny, up until she talked about having teh buttsecks with Hopey and then everything went kind of gray around the edges, and I started feeling sorta funny. Not funny ha ha, but funny I’m going straight to the store to buy the bleach that will get that particular satanic image out of my brain (ohpleaseohpleaseohplease).
[re=129969]Beetletheknee[/re]: Does that make Grampy McCrappyNappys the Abominable Snowman? This makes sense on so many levels!
[re=129930]obfuscator[/re]: That was AWESOME.
[re=129915]user-of-owls[/re]: Ha! My concern is less about the generic nature, and more about his inability to create sentences with embedded clauses. Or, shit, even adjunctive sentences. It’s not that I believe that he should be able to speak them on his own, but that his speech writers should have attempted to stick one or two into each grave utterance that he will give from now until our country finally implodes. But yes, that’s a more than adequate metaphor. Which one would he be, though? Herb?
[re=129920]JadedDIssonance[/re]: :) Totes.
[re=129962]SayItWithWookies[/re]: OK, so I just had this crazy thought. Is it possible that Ricky boy is actually a Dem operative, sent in by the genius that is Hopey to drive Grampa Simpson’s campaign into the toilet? I mean why else would he swallow his foot every time he opened his mouth? Ohmygod, Rick Davis is in the tank!
[re=129943]Gopherit v2.0[/re]: “Barack ‘Osama’ on Rensselaer County [NY] [absentee] ballots”. http://blogs.timesunion.com/capitol/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/osama_absentee.jpg
It beats me why Rensselaer County officials had to enter the treacherous waters of spelling and
proofreading. They should just have printed “That One” on the fucking ballot and been done with it.
Things just haven’t been the same the same in Rensselaer ever since the Erie Canal closed in 1918.
[re=129949]Doglessliberal[/re]: The problem was that staff was too focused on assuring that Palin’s name wasn’t spelled, “Mouth-Breathing Promiscuous Trollope”.
[re=129930]obfuscator[/re]: Thank you. I found that report both fair and balanced.
That picture looks an awful lot like a mannequin.
A dorky one.
[re=129949]Doglessliberal[/re], [re=130027]S.Luggo[/re], et al: Seems like a reasonable mistake. I mean even a national cable news organization has made that simple mistake. A fair and balanced one at that.
I prefer his other approach: ACORN! AYERS! SOCIALIST TERRORIST! AHHHH! AHHH! DAMN YOU! KILL KILL KILL! MUSLIM MUSLIM! WRIGHT! FARRAKHAN! AHHH! AHHH! KILL! MUSLIM! KILL KILL KILL! MUSLIM! AYERS! AHHH!
In that picture he looks like Martin Short doing a bad impression of Kenneth from 30 Rock all growed up.
Oh and a giant douche, which coincidentally is exactly what he is.
Rick and Lindsey Graham would make a super-cute couple.
Actually there is something a president can say about the economy. The Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper recently commented “falling stock markets are a buying opportunity for Canadians”. If only your president could show such empathy.
what a dildo; the picture of Davis perfectly captures him in all of his dildoness…
Sign this petition if you think McCain should stop talking about Obama and William Ayers…and start talking about the economy instead:
