Political Duds and Explosives

Speaking truth to power and the powers that be. Dave. Bill. Newt. Spam. The Nine Nitwits. And much more.

(Page 6 of 11)

: /p>

I always love to read Jackie Mason and Raoul Felder....

So, yes, the Duds are making the same mistake with Bush that they made with Reagan. Maybe it'd be good to look at it all as a simple game between fans of Leviathan and fans of Minimal government, and transcend the specific individuals playing the major parts, presently, on each of these teams. For Libertarians, such as I, a "Bush" only matters to the extent he holds back the Extreme-Left-Wingers and mostly to be rooted for, actually rolls them up, and smokes them! In a football analogy, keep developing the skills and power of the actual players, the coach, and the owners (the American people, for now -- all of humanity, ASAP). Then, in the ever-happening game, at least keep the Extreme-Left-Wingers from scoring, and work hard on scoring as much as you can, on them. After over seventy years of the roll-on, since FDR started his Mega-State (didn't Communism only last about seventy years in the USSR?), like a pendulum that reached the end of its left-ward cycle, and has started to come back toward the center, on the way to the right side, in this game the goal is to not just keep the leftists from scoring, but to actually push them back, on each play.

p>So, let's welcome the challenge, in the form of the Nine Nitwits, as they line up for each day's play, and use all our righteous power to plug the gaps, and pile on the ain't-got-a-clue mouthpieces, while the piling on is so propitious! Make hay while the sunlight of truth shines on these losers! br> -- unsigned /p>

The so-called Democratic presidential candidates are such low shelf weenies that Jacques Chirac would poll better against them.

John Kerry is a liar, period.

Joe Lieberman is following in Walter Mondale's footsteps as the losing VP that will lose as the top of the ticket.

Bob Graham is so far behind he's about to commit treason and should be immediately removed from any list giving him intelligence access.

John Edwards is more like a badly written character in all the badly written John Grisham novels. I expect to see either Susan Sarandon or Sandra Bullock next to him at any moment.

Dick Gephardt does so many 180's every election cycle he should be used to generate electricity for homes in St. Louis. Everything he was "for" in his 1988 run he is now "against." I wonder if he changes his mind on the shape of the Earth every two years.

Howard Dean is, well, Howard Dean. So he'll get the left-wing, earthy lesbian vote. Big deal. At least now there will never be a need to do a sequel to Howard the Duck.

Dennis Kucinich makes Lyndon LaRouche look electable. At least in 1984 LaRouche, on a 30-minute paid spot on CBS called Mondale/Ferraro, "that neo-Nazi and his slum lord running mate". Kucinich looks more like an "after" picture for Hair Club For Men.
