You know, that's going to really piss of the one who said he couldn't afford the hotel room over in NM. He was going to move to a cheaper place because he's not "rich, you know". Dweebs.

It is what fell on the floor at the meat packing plant ground up and pureed and put in a can. I wouldn't insult a self respecting slice of bread with it-it is nasty stuff!

Do you think there is any chance that poor boy will be normal??

"That is Schwarzenegger's big contribution. His candidacy will change minds about voting Republican. "

This is all about great marketing. You introduce them to voting Republican with Arnold and in the future may keep voting R while you adjust the product (aka more conservative Republicans)

well i am outraged at the freepers on that thread bashing him for KILLING FOR FUN. good grief, get over it.

[xsmommy]

damn straight.

[xsmommy]

i would prefer not to dwell on that thought!

[hobbes1]

Yeah, out of the park beyond the reach of the cheap seats.

George Will is an excellent writer, and thinker, but I have been waiting for a piece of intelectual snobbery like that...

I don't suppose that it has occured to GW, or anyone else for that matter, that the case for recalling Davis rests not on the fact that he sucks as a Governor, but that he lied through his teeth when seeking re-election. That is a practice that for too long has received the wink and a nod from all of the media, but moreso when a lefty does it, and, if anything, that is what Will should be harrumphing, like xsmommy, but with substantially less testosterone.

[hobbes1]

Well, dubs, that would be the INTELLIGENT argument, however, somehow Reactionary, and intelligent seldom cross paths....

this guy has some great ideas for what should be done to him and his pals.

[NeoCaveman]

I know. Some people over here sound like "Dean, Kuchinich, or Green" over at DU. The resemblance is uncanny.

[hobbes1]

Yes, sometimes the Gene pool can be shallow at both ends I am afraid.

[xsmommy]

I LOL at angelwood's post to you to remember to avoid eye contact with hillary! hopefully the rest of the freepers would perform some sort of exorcism, if it looked like you were falling under her spell in some way....
