Nerd humor is not only entertaining, it's totally opaque to jokers like him.

We used to do pilonidal cysts all the time when i was in the Army Medical Corps. Truck drivers, jeep drivers, tank drivers--they get 'em all the time. The army calls it "jeep riders disease." Lush Lamebrain must have sucked somebody off to get a deferment for that, it's as common as dirt in the Army.


wonder if he had to push cheney out the way to get to it? Smile

@Setanta,
So youre saying that Limbaugh's deferment was for a sore on his ass?

How dare he talk of "values" and make it sound like he is honoring our kids in uniform. I spit on him. "Ptoo"

This is a hillarious article comparing the current political envirnoment to "Star Wars" and the conservative who wrote it thinks the conservatives are ... the rebels. Yes the party of pre-emptive war, litmus tests and lock step voting doesn't see themselves as a clone army run by an evil emperor. They see themselves as the underdog, rag-tag army of farm boys, homeless princesses, ruffian smugglers and aliens (possibly illegal) with hearts of gold.


An excerpt from the article:

Quote:
The recent departure of Arlene Specter can be likened to the lancing of an abscess to remove the nidus of infection which is necessary for a body to be healed. Similarly, the Republican party must purge out the Republicans In Name Only (RINO) if they do not immediately repent. The “force” of the Republican party is their conservative principals, just like the Jedi Luke Skywalker, they must resist temptations away from this force.


Hillarious, indeed! But also very frightening. It reminds me of a political party that rose to power in Germany and its forceful policies of purge and purification in furtherance of their principles.

It's my understanding that emergency rationing of long-neck Bud lite could occur before the next election cycle.

i'd be willing to kick in a couple of bucks if it meant making bud lite scarce sooner.

Nothing like conservative principals to make schools run efficiently.

American universities are in trouble if spelling skills like these are enough for Dr. Tony Magana to earn a doctorate.

A doctorate from Harvard! His writing is atrocious. His biography fails to tell us what he studied in those ivy halls of higher education. He says he earned a doctorate, but in what field? Is Magana a doctor in the same way that Samuel "Joe" Wurzelbacher was a plumber?

A Chuck Norris and Sarah Palin ticket looks promising if Joe the Plumber (who now embraces gay friends who he won't allow within a mile of his children) becomes a regular speaker at their fund raisers and campaign appearances.


Oh gosh. Things don't look so promising anymore.

GOP disaster: First Specter and now Joe the Plumber?

Quote:
Plumber, perhaps the most well-known quasi-plumber turned author turned war correspondent turned economic advisor turned political reporter turned public speaker, announced today that he " like Specter " was throwing in the towel.

Who got this exclusive? Credit TIME magazine. Nice scoop. And there’s worry that traditional journalism is dead?

Michael Grunwald reports that Plumber (we know he has another last name but Plumber is easier to spell) is “so outraged by GOP overspending, he’s quitting the party " and he’s the bull’s-eye of its target audience.”

“But he also said he wouldn’t support any cuts in defense, Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid " which, along with debt payments, would put more than two-thirds of the budget off limits,” Grunwald adds.

You can see why the GOP enlisted him to be an economic advisor a couple months ago.

Didn't Joe the Plumber also have a stint as a country western singer?

He's definitely a man of virtually unlimited non-talents.

He was recently interviewed for Christianity Today:

Quote:
In the last month, same-sex marriage has become legal in Iowa and Vermont. What do you think about same-sex marriage at a state level?

At a state level, it's up to them. I don't want it to be a federal thing. I personally still think it's wrong. People don't understand the dictionary"it's called queer. Queer means strange and unusual. It's not like a slur, like you would call a white person a honky or something like that. You know, God is pretty explicit in what we're supposed to do"what man and woman are for. Now, at the same time, we're supposed to love everybody and accept people, and preach against the sins. I've had some friends that are actually homosexual. And, I mean, they know where I stand, and they know that I wouldn't have them anywhere near my children. But at the same time, they're people, and they're going to do their thing.


Wow. Whatever are we going to do without this man's imbecilic insights into our nation's divisive issues? The GOP will mourn his defection, or not.

@Debra Law,
Hey Pea Brian.

Is that the best you can come up with? Joe The Plumber?

This is the man the democrats are trying to lynch because he has a different point of view than you?

Maybe one day you will get a job and you will have a better understanding of reality.

In my opinion, there is a correlation between some of the "Beat generation" finishing their education in the late '50's, and entering academia as professors. Needless to say, many ex-Beats would not fit in, in corporate America, but some of academia seemed to accomodate them?

Thanks for the really important piece on Joe the Plumber. I'm not sure that the GOP can recover from Joe's departure.

It's amazing how far the pendulum has swung with public perception. Only a few years ago the GOP was the Conservative Family Values party, but now public perception sees them as the "spend it behind your back while denying you're doing it", angry and intolerant, hypocrite party. And the more the right wing fanatics talk, the deeper they dig their own hole. The GOP is in a very nasty downward spiral.
