Here’s heavy-petting Saxby Chambliss defending himself, on the Fox News, against a Jim Martin ad that quotes Chambliss saying he doesn’t even know what the term “recession” means. We’ll cut him some slack on that, because a new person is declaring a new version of the word everyday. But what’s notable is that Chambliss defends his comment by saying that he was quoting Alan Greenspan, people. He appears still to think that this is the ’90s/early ’00s, when name-dropping Greenspan worked as a blanket defense against criticism or, more importantly, an excuse not to learn anything about economics. This caused several problems. [YouTube]
Quoting the words of the now forever disgraced Aynn Rand fuck toy isn’t a smart move, Sexby. Just shows you are also guilty of being dumb as well as a slimy chickenshit.
Jimmy Dean called from Diamonds Are Forever to say Saxby is fired.
He may as well have been quoting Nostradamus, or the Farmer’s Almanac. Both of those sources are about as reliable as any economist you can name.
This jerkwad is so ignorant he doesn’t even know the textbook/rule-of-thumb definition, which anybody who ever turns on the teevee or NPR knows is two or more consecutive quarters of negative growth. Of course that kind of ignorance plays well in Georgia, where so-called “knowledge” is elitist.
I have two words for anyone who disagrees with this characterization of Georgia voters: Lester Maddox.
Greenspan just toed the line of whatever president he was working for/with (depending on how you define the relationship of the government to the Federal Reserve). In that sense he was no brighter than Tony Blair. Both looked highly capable under Clinton and looked like tools under Dubya.
Saxby’s real first name is Clarence.
Also had 5 deferments to get out of going to Viet Nam.
A real American.
That’s Saxby “Tittie McGropie” Chambliss. Get it right!
OK, so it’s 1932 all over again. So in 8 years we go to war with Germany? And that licks the Depression? I don’t mind going to war with Germany, but they better get movin’ if their gonna be at all evil enough, or well-tailored.
Figures. I imagine the 90s/early 00s is the last time this dickweed had a cogent thought. Also, a hearty THANK YOU to Saxby for bringing Bible Spice back to the lower 48–just when I had hoped we could go a week without hearing from the skank queen….
Can’t imagine a whiter person.
Who cares what a recession feels like when you have so many nice young things to feel? Yet another republican parading around his bible family while scouring for suitable bathrooms to be a pervert in.
He’s too pink to get SLACK!
Can the State that gave us Zell Miller and Newt Gingrinch continue this IQ dropping string and return one of the most despicable and foolish of the Bush Republicans to the Senate?
Cousin Fuckers everywhere want to know.
nurple: jesus. I’ve been biting my lip for days. Thank you.
Saxby Chambliss is the human embodiment of evil on earth. He is Satan’s messenger, unleashed here to loose a plague of locusts, etc., on everything that is good and right with the world. He is perhaps the lowest form of life in the Senate, and that includes the bacterial on the dog shit that some page tracked into the Senate this morning. But as long as there’s Georgia, we’ll have assholes like this in the Senate.
Meanwhile, who gave Chris Wallace his balls back?
The biggest problem in this pseudo-macho state-o-mine is that they have footage of an arts-and-crafts-lesbian looking Jim Martin prancing around with a “Women for Obama” rally sign. It really is kind of embarrassing.
On a brighter note, it won’t matter a shit if he wins. He’s perfectly invisible in the Senate and the two remaining New England Republicans will feel so much pressure that they’ll pretty much tow the line. Fuck Saxby and his syphilis nose.
nurple:
Is Sexby’s mistress named Tiffany, Plenty, Bambi or Thumper?
Alan “i never met a derivative i didn’t like” Greenspan is a major part of the reason we are in this mess, ya dipstick.
oops, just clicked on yr link in which such connections are well stated. my bad.
dang, that wiki is pretty breathtaking.
even in his attempt to state that he knew the definition of a recession, he got it wrong. He refers to it as “two consecutive ‘months’ of negative GDP”… the actual definition he was trying to state was “two consecutive ‘quarters’…”.
stumpycuse: He should have been more blunt with “6 consecutive ‘years’ of negative GOP.”

Hey! Lester Mad-ox….. what’s so retarded about him? Let’s wiki
“The restaurant became known for its simple, inexpensive food, including its specialty, skillet-fried chicken. It soon became a thriving business. The restaurant also provided Maddox with his first political forum: the restaurant became well known in Atlanta for large newspaper advertisements that featured cartoon chickens. Following the Brown v. Board of Education decision of 1954, these restaurant ads began more and more to feature the cartoon chickens commenting on the political questions of the day.
O, now I remember.
I don’t care what he is saying or who he is interviewing: Chris Wallace needs to have his goddamn smug fucking face punched in. Maybe Randy Newman can write a stupid fucking song about it. I just HATE THEM BOTH SO MUCH! Okay, I feel better now that I’ve got that off my chest.
Deepthroat: What’s so bad about Randy Newman? He’s written some very nice songs about Cleveland.
A lot of late-90s stuff is still cool out there in flyover country.
ManchuCandidate: Lindsey Graham.
rocktonsammy: Clarence? I guess it’s true what they say - every time a GOP senator smears a triple amputee he gets to molest his own offspring. It would explain why that ad ran so many times in ‘02.
