Word For The Day, August 21, 2012
In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of "Word for the Day".
velleity [vuh-LEE-i-tee]
-n
1. Volition in its weakest form.
2. A mere wish, unaccompanied by an effort to obtain it.
[1610–20; < Neo-Latin velleitās, equivalent to Latin velle to be willing + -itās -ity]
He’s got to go and go before 5 pm.
Actually they could pull him later but that leaves you up to the mercies of the secretary of state who is not just a Democrat but a Carnahan.
We could replace him the week before the election under the Lautenberg Principle.
I just saw that the selfish bastard said he was not getting out-so he needs to be forced out, or dragged off kicking and screaming, if need be. He is beyond the pale on this, and I can’t imagine that there is a woman he has not offended with his stupid, incaring remarks.
Make that “uncaring”...
Hey, did you hear, Roger Clemens is on the road to become the new Kenny Powers! He just joined a minor league team and will be pitching Saturday night! OMG
LOL That’s exactly what I thought. Hmmm, did he bring his jet ski with him?
Yeah akin is ammo for the libs who claim old white men shouldn’t be telling them what to do with their bodies..... he’s got to go
For the second day in a row Akin is on with Hannity and for the second day in a row Hannity is begging him to leave the race. He’s still stuttering around about how he won the primary. This guy has to go.
Isn't the real question, is Akin smarter than McCaskill ?
The idiots, in this equation are the party Solons that were calling for his ouster, without finding out quietly if he was willing to go....
Now all they done is throw fuel on the fire in a manner that the Democrat party never does, EXCEPT when the miscreant is a Republican.
Ted Kennedy drove a girl off the bridge. Frank allowed his lover to pimp boys out of his apartment. McGreevy was having clandestine liasons in Turnpike rest stops.
and a sitting President of the United States was CREDIBLY accused of FORCIBLE RAPE ON NATIONAL Television.
No outrage there.
And we're forcing a Senate candidate out for speaking stupidly.
Every one turning against Akin, should never ever criticize the Republicans as the stupid party, because that's the behavior being advocated.
I doubt that anyone knew what a dolt he was when he won the primary-if they had, one of the other 2 candidates would have won. He needs to be ousted, no matter how ugly it is-like I said, kicking and screaming, if that is what it takes-I heard the funds already got yanked.
I’ve been goofing off at the Wisconsin Dells - home of some fine tattooed MILF. But regardless - thank you SO MUCH for cluing me in to that Jim Rob thread
Ypu realize of course, the last Senate candidate that withdrew under fire, gave way to Alan Keyes trying to save the day....hoping for more change?

And the one to do it before him is one of your senators.
Look, this is not IL, Aiken is a distraction, he needs to go and they need to replace him with Steelman. MO has plenty of non Alan Keyes replacement options.
Hobbes is wrong on the Akin issue, as i have repeatedly told him. there needed to be a horsehead in Akin’s bed.
Damn right.
Akin’s too stupid to know how damn stupid he IS!
You mentioned that no one checked quietly to see if he would leave voluntarily - how do you know that? Maybe they did and he refused - likely since even when they are openly asking him he is refusing. We can't allow a loss of even one single seat and he won't be elected.
the Cook Report has branded him unelectable, as i posted on today’s thread, and charley cook has a good track record.
All I’m saying is that he is putting his ego before good sense by hanging on and howling that he won’t go-never mind that as a woman, I am really offended by his remarks.
