    She sounds worse than she looks! Did she suffer a stroke, or does she just slur all of he words?

    I’m impressed that she can play the piano with a double bourbon in each hand. But is Ms. Grogan wearing an unflattering wig and unfashionable coat in that photo or is she in the process of being swallowed by a yak?

    Something is definitely wrong with America, and it’s way past time the “Army of God” went to battle to defeat those using our schools and children to destroy morals and traditional values–replacing them with lifestyles too dirty. . . even for animals.

    If she thinks the schools are bad, she should take a visit to the factory farms.

    from Prayer of the Day

    If you think of life as something to be

    cherished and having great appeal…

    Then you’re one step closer to finding out

    what is fake…

    and what is real.

    If only life could be gathered up and put

    in a bottle…

    Just think of the ways life could be the

    super model.

    Oh, hell no. And damn you for even suggesting it. I’m sensitive and have, over the past 10 years, eaten my weight in magic mushrooms, so there’s no way in bloody blue hell I’m clicking that link.

    You have done well, my friend. These atheists will know G*d’s wrath when U.S. Americans of the American heartland smolder them into heaps created by M1 Battle Rifles™, the right to own (and SHOOT) which is given to us by the Lord’s Will.

    The 7 x .563mm (NATO) calibre round travels at 6300 FPS and has a striking weight of .973 ft/lbs, so I figure some considerable smoldering would ensue, yes. BTW, the aforementioned data comes straight from the classified files that a full-bird kernal of the Special Forces had the good graces to lend me.

Why not? Why won’t you show your patriotism? All you guys do is whine whine whine about how crappy America is with all these Demon-crats, but when it’s time to PROVE your love for America, you REFUSE to put a jiggling animated .gif of the flag on your page. Why? Why do you hate your country? Are you ashamed of America? Feh. You anti-American creeps don’t fool me. That’s why DailyKos banned you. They knew you weren’t a True Patriot of the Heartland, where Jesus Was Born ™.

    I pray if you are the parents of school age children you are working diligently to have them removed from the tents of the wicked… disguised as schools.

    To think I just called it “elementary school.” But I do agree that all poor children being raised as wingnuts should have their own home school, so their moms can spend every minute of their lives taking care of them.

    Every. Single. Minute.

    My mother tried that at one point. We went to a Xtian madrassa when we were still living in the Ozarks, but we could only find Catholic schools near Pittsburgh.

    It went fine for about three months. Then my mom started locking herself in her room for several hours each day and hiding cheap alcohol in strange places. Finally one day she broke half of our plates and “went to visit her mother”. About two weeks later she called my father from a hotel in North Carolina and he went to pick her up. They seem to have worked things out on the long drive home and her doctor prescribed some pills so she wouldn’t get “sick” again,

    After that we went to public school.

    But I think he’s mostly right here.

    Both Democrats and Republicans have targeted political adversaries over the years.

    Nice try, LIE-brul. My home schooling was educated enough that I’m pretty sure that a word spelled like that would sound like “koh-lohn-el”, which is not how we pronounce kernal in the United States. Maybe you got a little bit mixed up from visiting FRANCE during your vacation??

    As to knowing people in the military, most of my aquaintances are former SEALS, commandos, Army Rangers and a smattering of Park Rangers. These are highly trained American Patriots who reside in the heartland and live a military lifestyle (the commandos, for an example, are said to eschew underclothing, such is the spartan quality of their existance). They and me, we, live in AMERICA, where we speak AMERICAN not, French, as you LIE-bruls would have us talk.

    You Islamosexuals think you’re so smart but you don’t even get that “Randall” is the venerated and respected “Mall Ninja” who is spoken of in tones of awe and fear. He works as an upper-tier security personel for major commercial concerns in American shopping facilities. Few people realize the kind of crime that goes on all around them, unnoticed, such as gang wars and drug hits and other crimes, and Randall and his team watch over us, unnoticed and unseen, as they are masters of camoflage. You may laugh at “Wackenhut” security but many of them are former Special Forces types who keep the bad guys on the run, rather than running you over while you’re shopping. This is everyday life in the heartland, thanks to the corruption of Hollywood. Randall and his team have seen much in their lives……too much, and yet they continue watching over even you LIE-bruls who laugh at them.

    If she thinks the schools are bad, she should take a visit to the factory farms.

    Tragically, Pedestrian, “factory farms” are exactly what Kaye Grogan and her ilk want our public schools to be. Stack up the kid-units, slop the corporate ’smart kibble’ in at one end, and blast the whole operation with fumigants every so often. Failed ‘units’ will be ground up & recycled into the smart kibble. After a pre-set period determined by rigorous testing, the surviving units will be ejected into their pre-determined futures as corporate drones, service workers, or global security as needed by the megacorporations and their wholly owned subsidiaries in the Oval Office.

    Hell, if you look at the fReichtards clogging the intertoobz with the sludge they plop out on command whenever a new RNC blastfax arrives, it looks like the manufacturers of high-fructose corn syrup may already be well on their way to this ADM utupia!

    Kaye would sure love me, I guess, on account of I’ve now been a home schooling mom for two whole weeks! Yep! Of course, I’m not doing it for any religious whackadoodle reason - in fact, teenager and I are both atheists - but for other reasons entirely. But I’m sure Kaye would feel we’re doing gawd’s work. Wouldn’t she?

    You know, the idea of Kaye having had ischemic attacks is a fairly good explanation for her, um, issues. I’ve been saying for years that I think Bush’s problem is that he had a series of small strokes, probably back in his cokehead days. It’s not uncommon. Next time you see him attempt public speaking, think about it. It explains a lot.

    And I’m not going to click on the link. I do really want to know, though: did she really praise the Army of God? The terrorist organization? Why does Kaye hate America?

    A former Drake University student body president was charged Friday in the January death of a 7-month-old girl at a West Des Moines home where he had stayed with the child’s teenage mother.

    Matthew Joseph Elliott, 26, is in the Polk County Jail on a $250,000 bond, charged with first-degree murder.

    Elliott, who was added to the state’s sex offender registry after a child pornography conviction in 2006, was taken into custody Jan. 21, the day emergency workers were called to 513 Eighth St. and found Alexis Gilbert not breathing . . .
    Police have also declined to comment on Elliott’s relationship to the baby’s mother, Kristina Gilbert, 16, except to say that he was not the baby’s father.
    He attended Drake University from 1999 to 2003 and was student body president for the 2001-02 school year. He also worked for several political groups, including the Iowa Republican Party and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney’s Iowa presidential campaign.

    He was a big fish in his little pond.

    He briefly joined the Iowa presidential campaign staff of Governor Mitt Romney before leaving to run for a seat in the Iowa state legislature.

    Additionally, Elliott was a leading College Republican in Iowa while attending Drake University, where he served as student body president. Elliott also served as director of the Iowa Republicans’ Legislative Majority Fund.

    which makes too much of his Republican connections, and he is probably innocent

    Allow me to second that opinion, my fellow Patriot. The fact that he has proven Republican connections implies that he IS innocent, as Republicans are people of the heartland and have American values. Besides that, people are making too much of this, after all, it was a baby, not a fully formed human adult. A baby is unable to do any real form of labor and is therefore more of a parasite than anything else, until it’s able to be productive.

    The fact is, it is the liberals who are into kiddie porn and the ACLU and others are there to support their agenda of access to perversion, and so they try to “get” loyal patriots entrapped into situations that are trumped up to descredet them because that is what they like to do. Smear and have sex.

    Loyal Patriots never have sex.

    That’s why we’ve run completely out of Loyal Patriots.

No luck so I consoled myself with a hot chocolate at the Coffee Shop next door. Now I’m listening to the 4th Nuggets collection of San Francisco psychedelia. I’m missing the fact that I wasn’t able to get away for my vacation in SF this winter.
    The rest of St. Paul seems to have the agenda of wearing green and getting as shit faced drunk as possible tonight. St. Pat’s day is a big deal in St Paul.

    Mikey, I too have pondered the weighty question of the origin of underwear. My theory (never before made with such little care or lack of proof) is that it stems from our less hygienic ancestors. See, if the only baths you take are baptism and when you die, you get kind of funky, and it rubs off on your clothes. Underwear exist to protect your good threads from your sweaty, funky, unwashed, medieval ass. And it provides an extra layer of warmth in the unheated, mud encrusted etc.

    I hope you like this theory, and I encourage you to adopt it as your own.

    Your theory, Johnny, is dependent upon a very important ass-umption. (Heh heh). That being that we care if other people are offended by our base funkyness. I tend to care about the opinions of others about third or fourth, definately behind comfort and functionality.

    In simple terms, if in order to avoid offending you I have to itch or chafe or be uncomfortable, I’m pretty sure you’re going to have to find a way to deal with your personal discomfort.

    Whisked Newt with Stretched Breakfast Creams

    Ingredients:
    1 newt, illegibly sugared
    6 portions eternal breakfast cream
    1 pinch preeminent smoked Gouda, uncommunicatively scrambled
    3 pinches ermine brain, pulled
    1 pinch mint
    5 ounces paprika

    Pick over the ingredients dumbfoundedly and discard excess sand. Place the newt into a small bag. Combine the breakfast cream with the smoked Gouda over medium heat in a bag. Sprinkle resulting potion over the newt. Barbecue the ermine brain,, and the paprika grouchily. Heap the latter combination on to the former. Bake for 33 minutes. Serves 5 physical individuals with authoritarian stomachs.

    The demons crawled our church walls. Then I knew the rules, having visited numerous prisoners prior. So I shed my jacket, putting it on a hook in the same window.
    There she was working in a Christian school. She kept screaming.
    Then finally she walked back into her yard. I turned quickly in her direction, listened up and heard all sorts of nasty words. They were ensconced in their heads, wondering if they’d get a caller. I spent some time with Mike, a new jacket. At least it was new to me. Our church had a free clothing center that she would keep the faith. Above all, we could not be near me.
    Not even my shadow. Linda would come to worship. I learned that Fran was recording my sermons in hopes of finding something demonic. He then told me I had never felt in the furthering of widespread, deadly diseases. It is illogical; nevertheless, it is God-blessed. Such sex activity does involve teens, many of them girls, thus the apostates being party to the convention.

    “That being that we care if other people are offended by our base funkyness. ”

    No, man, I was coming at it from a purely practical POV. If your clothes become too crusty, too fast, then you have to wash them more often. Since the outer layers tended to be complex and delicate (I’m thinking Elizabethian here) they were difficult to wash. Undergarments were easier to wash, and kept the outer layers fresher by absorbing the sweat, the assfunk, what have you.

    I concur with Johnny. i think underwear were a convenient way to keep your funky junk off the brocade and silk.

    But how interesting that underclothes have now evolved into the wonders that they are now - at least for women. I am a terrible addict when it comes to lingerie - i like the lacey things.

    mikeinportc asked:

    There seems to be a strong resemblance.
    From Arlene’s keyboard:
    Jeff ran a flawless conference, except, for his misfortune to book the event at the Sahara Hotel. They changed the guarantee (at the last minute) from $110 a night for the room to $400 for a room that was decorated early Howard Johnsons. Walking through the lobby was enough to give you cancer from the lingering cigarette smoke and the food was bordering on ptomaine.
    Yep, that’s the definition of a flawless conference. I went to one like that in Columbus, Ohio. The second day they moved to a different hotel.

    Joe Kaufman spoke at length how Hamas threatens America. CAIR is a durative of Hamas.
    A good illustration of the danger of using a Thesaurus without already having a good vocabulary.
    The meaning of the noun “durative” is in both senses also called continuative.
    1)The durative aspect.
    2)A durative verb or verb form.

    The meaning of “durative aspect” is “the aspect of a verb that expresses its duration.”
    So what was the point about CAIR? Is it an offshoot of Hamas, an evolution of Hamas, a wacky and plausibly denied claimant to the title of “Top Ten Terrorist Organizations,” a civil liberties and advocacy group for Muslims in North America, or the aspect of a verb that expresses its duration? It remains a mystery to readers of Arlene’s essay.

    I remember a couple of years ago when I slipped into a local mosque and listened to a few of the well-dressed crowd that was there. The idea seemed to be to encourage their children to major in three specific fields. Those being, education, politics and communications.
    I am completely fascinated by this scenario, and I long for lots and lots of details, but, none are forthcoming.

    Hey folks,

    You may have noticed that the U.S. economy is headed for utter ruin. If you haven’t, then just let me be the first to mention it, and say that I believe the situation is deadly serious. To that end, I’ll be down in Houston on Monday, waiting for my bank to open at nine.

    If you have any assets you wish to save from utter ruin (i.e. those that are denominated in $USD), then I would run, not walk, to the following web sites:

    http://www.merkfund.com/fund/overview/facts.html

    http://www.bullionvault.com/

    http://www.everbank.com/001WorldCurrency.aspx?LinkID=Breadcrumb

    You might also want to look into small amounts of physical gold/silver. Preferably from a shop/seller that doesn’t want to know your name.

    Not affiliated with any of the above, by the way. And I don’t know that any of them constitute “magic bullets” against what is coming. They are simply what I’ve decided to risk my own meager resources on. And it may be that next week will be the very last chance any of us gets to try to save him/herself. I think life in this country is about to get very unpleasant, more than most people are capable of guessing at this point.

    Not trying to be a drama queen here, or imply that you haven’t seen this coming and taken steps, etc. Just mentioning it now because I feel obligated to do so. I’ve gotten a lot from reading you guys, and the S/N community seems like a pretty good bunch.

    Don’t know what else to say. “Happy landings,” is as good as anything, I suppose.

    And, of course, good luck.
