America’s Shittiest Website™ — The Illustrated Edition
Here’s what happened over at America’s Shittiest Website™ after Nancy Pelosi referred to “500 Million” American jobs:
And here’s what happened there after Andy McCarthy, one of their own, talked about “billions of American lives” threatened by terror attacks:
Ya think Andy “USA! USA! USA!” McCarthy was counting Central Americans, South Americans and Canadians too?

Judging by his work in the past, Andy McCarthy really needs an editor. It’s a shame NRO doesn’t have one who can fill that position. Nope, they’ve not one editor there whatsoever.

Not to mention Obama’s “Fifty-seven states” and Biden forgetting which article of the Constitution talks about the executive branch.
But of course Obama, Pelosi, and Biden are Democrats so they’re brilliant! Republicans are either dumb or evil evil EVIL.

Well, RedStutter75, I think we can safely conclude that you, at least, are a dumbfuck and missed the point of the post, which wasn’t to excuse Pelosi’s mistake. Wipe the cheeto dust off your face and read it again. It’s mostly pictures so it should only take you ten minutes or so.

This sort of misspeaking is only to be expected, especially from Repubs who often count on Americans’ not being able to understand the difference between a million and a billion. That way, they can say that spending 850 billion on blowing people up is cool, but 850 million on social programs is a horrible waste – the only difference is the outrage with which the sum is pronounced.

You are mistaking a one-time miss-spoken remark for a “claim.” A “claim” is when you not only say you’re a foreign policy expert because you can see Russia from Alaska, you repeat it, rephrase it several ways, defend it and have your surrogates defend it.

Exhibit G is Sweden. In 1993, Sweden took the prize for big government. It spent 71% of GDP at a time when even France was spending less than 55%. By 2007 Sweden’s spending was trimmed to 51% of GDP. Still not a small government by any means, but smaller than France’s, at 52%.
Over that time, 1993 to 2006, its real GDP per capita grew 42% compared to France’s 24%. As its government shrank below France’s, it’s GDP per capita swelled above it — from 94% of France’s to 108%. Sweden cut its government burden and saw its economy take off.
LESSON FOR AMERICA
Spend just over half your GDP on your people, and your economy will boom!
Thank you for supporting the liberal position.

Maybe, cuz, you know, THERE AREN’T ANY TO RIDE OUTSIDE THE NORTHEAST?????
Not enough, certainly. Strangely, here in Utah there is a surprisingly enlightened public transit system including light rail in Salt Lake City. Of course, since this is Utah, it was originally not run on Sundays, but they very quickly changed that due to public demand – ridership was far in excess of what was expected, and has continued to be high. Maybe you have to live here to appreciate just how huge a deal this is, but Utahns voted for a tax increase to support public transport. In 2008 they started a commuter rail service between Ogden and SLC, which AFAIK has been very popular.
I feel very lucky to have these things available, especially living in a red state.

Heh.
Embarrassingly, I was initially opposed to the light rail development here – but mainly because I thought it was going to be some kind of ripoff boondoggle related to the 2002 Winter Olympics, because for sure there was plenty of that going on. Perhaps it would have been, but they got good people to work on it, and they’ve expanded it since.
I did always think it was a good idea if handled well. I was especially impressed with my fellow Utahns – not just because they were even willing to pay for the service, but in that they’d use it at all. I thought they’d be more like our legislators, who would die – just die! – of shame if they had to do something “poor” like ride public transpo.

“Most Americans” don’t like public transit because they don’t have public transit; at least, nothing that’s better than the means of transportation of last resort. When pork-cutting Republican politicians decide to defund public transit, the schedules thin, maintenance is postponed and service is cut, and eventually regular passengers stop riding once delays and lack of service becomes too inconvenient, which starts its own negative feedback loop of decreasing fares and politicians pointing to the revenue loss as a reason to cut transit funding further. It’s just another example of how Republicans destroy government services so they can convince voters that government services suck.

Few years back I recall hearing about some congresscritter bitching about subsidies and pork for some rail project for his district. I’m not going to bother to look it up but the giust was, he said “we don’t subsidize the airlines and they make money.” Well, no, dipshit, we do subsidize the airlines. Smaller cities (many of which would be better served by (high speed) rail), build airports with tons of goobermint money.
We still don’t charge trucks the real cost of building and maintaining the roads.
What killed rail in the U.S.? Government subsidies of other transportation systems.
Developing rail systems would cut carbon emissions drastically, save more energy than filling every attic in the country with 10 feet of insulation, spark a whole economic sector of equipment and service suppliers, and get us all where we’re going quicker (in many cases) and with less hassle.
Shall I continue with reasons why so many murricans are against it?
Nah, didn’t think so.

A consistent theme of strongly conservative posters that I have seen on another forum, is that they will never contemplate what they have written or apologise for factual errors. Thus there would never be an admission of a mistake from ASW since that would mean that they had made a mistake. I think that is one of the reasons for their dominance of the American political system and it is being shown again at the moment. The right is in full war paint and making a huge noise. The foot soldiers are ringing the phones, the cohort organisers are running the usual BS articles the politicians are in verbal diarrhoea mode, wanking on about things they would back in a heartbeat if it came from their party. And as they were in power when all this was being set-up (the quagmire) one might expect some introspection, but Sadly,no.

The Interstate Highway System:
The Dwight D. Eisenhower National System of Interstate and Defense Highways, commonly called the Interstate Highway System (or simply, the Interstate System), is a network of limited-access highways (also called freeways or expressways) in the United States that is named for the President who championed its creation. The Interstate Highway System is a subsystem of the National Highway System. The entire system, as of 2004[update], has a total length of 46,837 miles (75,376 km),[1] making it both the largest highway system in the world and the largest public works project in history.[2]
While Interstate Highways usually receive substantial federal funding (90% federal and 10% state) and comply with federal standards, they are owned, built, and operated by the states or toll authorities. For example, the original Woodrow Wilson Bridge (part of Interstate 95 and Interstate 495), was maintained by the federal government; its new span is now jointly owned and maintained by the state of Maryland and the Commonwealth of Virginia.[3] There are also other Interstate Highways within the District of Columbia, which is federal territory.[4]
Financing
About 56% of the construction and maintenance costs are funded through user fees, primarily gasoline taxes, collected by states and the federal government, and tolls collected on toll roads and bridges. The rest of the costs are borne by the federal budget.[29]. In the eastern United States, large sections of some Interstate Highways planned or built prior to 1956 are operated as toll roads.
So, 44% is funded thru my income taxes, Hummer.
You may now kneel before me and kiss my boots.

a drive-by to weigh in on the public transit – Denver has the core of a very fine light rail system and it is very popular. I use it to get to my downtown (congested traffic area) job. In 2006, the cowboy-hat-ski bum- libertarian types (yes, that is irritating) around here voted to RAISE their TAXES to extend this system.

Have to point out that the NashvilleStar made money last summer when gas prices shot past $3 a gallon. People couldn’t dump their gas guzzling SUV’s fast enough. This despite the train (a singular train) only runs from Lebanon, TN through Mt. Juliet and into Nashville. A real light rail system would be a huge boon to Middle Tennessee. Especially with gas prices about to go back up next spring.
Also, I love to ride Marta in Atlanta and Washington, DC. Most of the people sitting next to me where coming and going from work or the concert we just attended. Safe, fast, and cheap.

Zero, actually.
60% comes from fares, 25% comes from bridge and tunnel tolls, and the rest from income taxes.
Now, you could make the case, I suppose, that bridge and tunnel tolls subsidize the train, but for nearly every bridge that has a toll, there’s a bridge that parallels it for free, so in effect, those tolls are voluntary payments.

And during peak hours, it’s TEN FUCKJING MINUTES between trains. Both MAX and The Streetcar are always a bit crowded in the downtown area, probably because it’s fucking free fer chrissake.

She skittled the whole woodwind section and hospitalised the oboist. They never did find the reed.

Well, in the last election, the people of King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties (WA) finally, on the seventh or eighth try, voted in the light rail system we could have had after the Forward Thrust election in 1968.
It’ll be financed by a regressive sales tax increase, but what the hell. We’ll eventually have trains running every 15 minutes or so and the line will run from Everett through the bus tunnel in downtown Seattle, to Lakewood, south of Tacoma, with the first line coming in from Auburn, through Sea-Tac airport and downtown to the U District. The same ballot issue also included a large expansion for Metro and Sound Transit systems.
Better way, way, late than never.

No fooling.
When we lived near San Francisco we rode BART a lot, to Oakland Athletics games, to SF for shopping and sometimes when I needed to work on a project there, and one summer to take my girls to ballet class. Yes, I own an SUV but it’s a small one and taking BART into SF and to Walnut Creek made life a lot easier if I didn’t have to worry about where I was going to find parking in SF for the Urban Assault Vehicle, or when the sissy in front of me on Crow Canyon would finally take their foot off the brakes and DRIVE!
Now I take the METRO from Fullerton to Union Station in LA when I meet mr opiejeanne for lunch on days he’s got a hot date with UMWD.
Yes, I’ve seen one or two “scary” people, but you can see them a lot more of them outside the grocery store, if you’re paying attention. More of them these days than in the past. Mostly what we saw on the commuter trains were people with jobs, people going shopping or going to games.

(Ms.) Pat Summit, coach of the GODALMIGHTY University of Tennessee “Lady Vols,” became the winningest college basketball coach OF ALL FUCKING TIME, MALE OR FEMALE, last night, with her ONE THOUSANDETH (1,000th) win.
Eat it, everyone in the whole fucking sports universe of everything forever.

If you see him again, could you give him a wedgie for me?

I have to admit, I like pie too, and I like the fact that I can take the train to a place that makes a good pie. I also like sitting next to weirdos, especially when they’re sexy weirdos who look like the ex I’m still carrying a torch for, and we’re hitting it off until Atlantic Avenue comes to interrupt our tete-a-tete, and we exchange info. I especially like it when I’m drunk as a lord’s bastard and the train will get me home safely, because my little Jap ricer is safely parked at home. I especially, especially like it when my little Jap ricer is parked for days at a time because I ride my American made, though faggoty bicycle to work, because it’s, like, macho, to celebrate my freedom by saddling myself with car payments and ninety-dollar fillups.

henry lewis: No longer employed by the university, I probably won’t run into him again, but who knows? It’s a tiny town. If I do, I’ll wedgy him just for you. Well, and myself, and several others, as well. Unless I’m angling for another university gig. One never knows.

>2009: Republican Pete Sessions proudly compares Congressional Republicans to the Taliban.
I find this a truly offensive comparison, frankly.
From what I understand, the Taliban are actually quite sincere in their religious mania.

The only question is, which one is Mr. Blartstate? I would go for one of the 10 kids, the one called Dopey or perhaps the one called Sneezey. Possibly he gets the two-for-one deal and smells like shit, too.

Do you have fun sitting next to three unemployed thugs who just got out of prison, two single welfare moms with 10 kids, and a homeless person that smells like shit?
Hmm… the Wikipedia sayeth:
As of 2004, the three states with the lowest ratio of imprisoned to civilian population are Maine (148 per 100,000), Minnesota (171 per 100,000), and Rhode Island (175 per 100,000). The three states with the highest ratio are Louisiana (816 per 100,000), Texas (694 per 100,000), and Mississippi (669 per 100,000).
Plus, everybody in NYC knows that parolees leave Rikers by bus. Not sure how they leave the “Bernard Kerik Complex”, formerly known as “The Tombs

At The Tombs, they’re released to the street outside and given subway fare.
Rikers does bus them out, but only to the Queensboro Bridge plaza, where they can catch any number of subways or buses home.

“Just because you crazy commies are too dumb to get a job doesn’t mean that we have to fund your laziness! Put that in your pipe and smoke it! ”
My pipe is already filled, thanks.
Ya know, when the Atlantic Ocean rises and begins to drown you and your fellow Fellati, er, Floridians, don’t even think about asking for help from or moving to California, Kai? Thx, Bai.

You libs hate personal freedom, indpendence and privacy – this is my explanation for your call to fund better public transport (inlcuding choo-choo trains and buses for weirdos and black people instead of brmm-brmmm cars which are the best and my Dad drives one which is better than your Dad’s).
Not only do you hate freedom, independence and privacy but you also also also… you opposed Guantanamo Bay, secret prisons, kidnapping of random people, torture, the presidential power to detain US citizens without trial, the Patriot Act, the right of the Feds to check your reading list, and warantless wire-tapping. Because you care more about “freedom” and “privacy” than about saiving the lives of weirdos and freaks in your precious buses.
[Teacher's note: You aren't making sense]
No wonder you libs keep on losing elections all the time.
If the MSM owned by Disney, General Electric and Time Warner didn’t hate capitalism so much, libs would have no chance at all!
