Joe The Plumber Sez: Go To Zeitgeist Thursday

McCain says he wants to put money in his pocket. I think John’s just got a thing for exposed ass cracks.

*******************************UPDATE*******************************

Bay Area Rummy Bloggers Drink-Up hosted by the Barbarians tomorrow, Thursday, at Zeitgeist in San Francisco (corner of Win & Fail):

Calling all Sadlynauts esp. D to the A,

SF bay area blogger drinkfest and debate wrap up tomorrow (thurs) at Zeitgeist.

See the barbarianblog. Look for the Viking helmet.

BTW: did Bob bring up Ayers so McRib didn’t have to? Maybe it was the wet hops at Toronado.

All proceeds will go to Empty Beer Pitcher-Fillers Local 69.

HTML adds: Isn’t Plumber Joe the sort of confrontational guy whom George Bush and Richard Cheney would have had the Secret Service physically throw out of rallies? Already, comrades, we see change coming to America!

I’ve watched all the debates on ABC. Purty Mouth MorAn really doesn’t like George Stephanopoulos.

I’m a combative asshole type (as you well know), so I was really hoping that Obama would say in response to McCain’s comments in RE: Ayers, “Oh, yeah, well what about your man-crush on G. Gordon Liddy?” But he of course didn’t. And from the looks of the polls, maybe it’s for the best. Kill him with kindness, instead!

Shorter Mark Steyn: McCain would have won if he hadn’t silenced his inner wingnut.

Um…. what about the part where McCain pooh-poohed the deal about women’s health?

I better head over to Pandagon….

 
 

Buttocks cracks

 
 

I’m watching CNN. WTF? Did these people watch a different debate or have I been hallucinating for the past hour?

They are saying McCain was strong, aggressive, had a great debate.

Erm, what? I saw an angry guy getting his arse handed to him by a guy who just refused to get dirty.

 
 

McCain/Palin = Plumber and Dumber

 
 

Oooh, McCain came very close to losing it… but he didn’t.

I chanted “Think about bunnies,” just for comic relief.

He must want to be President very much. It’s my understanding that he usually does not restrain his temper. So you can do it, huh, you just don’t bother, Senator McCain?

Even more impressive because McWorse thought the presidency was just going to be handed to him. Rarely-exercised self control, or primo meds?

 
 

I blame Joe the Plumber for tomorrow’s drop in the market

 
 

Primo meds. I’ve never seen his eyes open so widely.

If you don’t exercise self-control, it gets all flabby and weak. And then you become a Republican.

 
 

Obama did much better especially on Health Care. What matters is the press Remember Al Gore and Bush? Everyone agreed that Gore won. But then there was a weekend and then there was a Chris Matthews on tv and then history was made.

 
 

They are saying McCain was strong, aggressive, had a great debate.

I knew this would happen. These guys love assholes – look at how they sucked on W’s balls for 8 years. They love guys who hate them – look at how they joked when W “pretended” to run them over with a tractor.

So yea, it doesn’t surprise me that they love this blustery, disrespectful, and unserious performance.

Also, CNN gets ratings from a close race, so they will push the “comeback” if its at all possible.

 
 

The fact is, shut up, you liberals are loosing badly, and no biased spin will make your boy win.

 
 

WTF about McCain talking about “my friend Joe” who he actually never met – it was Obama that met Joe.

and can I just say? McCain looked like a fucking Jack-o-Lantern. One made out of those those white pumpkins. With pink lipstick. Weird.

 
 

Joe the Plumber needed to stop those waggling valves on McCain’s eyes.

 
 

Dammit D., that was my line!eleventy

Poop.

 
 

So – was McWorse’s campaign rebooted, or not?

 
 

G.R. – Watch it with the ‘boy’ shit, asshole.

It’s ‘Mr. President’ to you.

 
 

Joe the Plumber can lick my balls by the way. He makes way, way more money than I do, and I have no sympathy with him struggling in his endeavors to make way more money than that. We have tried the trickle down thing, it failed, it doesn’t work, it’s bullshit, so sorry Joe, pay the taxes and work harder if you wanna make more.

 
 

The media makes WAY more money if the public perceives it as a close election. An Obama landslide doesn’t sell commercials, my friends.

So what do you expect them to do?

The good news is, this time they have a minimal effect upon reality…

mikey

huh…welfare queen.

 
 

In the split-screen, McCain looked like he was about to vibrate out of his seat. That weird half-grin, the blinking eyes, the clenched jaw.the sidelong glance, like he was the kid in the back row of the classroom, trying to get the other kids to laugh while the teacher’s talking.

 
Johnny Coelacanth
 

I’m with G (except for the “going to Pandagon” part). I think the Obama campaign (or somebody) ought to hammer home McCain’s indifference about the life of the mother. Entitled old prick.

 
 

shystee – will main post that invite … after my next beer. Cheers and see ya tomorrow!

 
 

Who is Joe the Plumber? He is supposed to be Turkish. Some say his father was German. Nobody believed he was real. Nobody ever saw him or knew anybody that ever worked directly for him, but to hear Kobayashi tell it, anybody could have worked for the Plumber.

 
 

Yeah, our real economic crisis is to focus on helping people making a quarter mil:

Joe the Plumber was the surprise star of the third and final presidential debate, getting no less than 13 mentions in the opening minutes.

So who is this guy? His full name is Joe Wurzelbacher, and it turns out he had a close encounter with Barack Obama a few days ago. John McCain adopted Joe’s cause as a way to tar his opponent as a tax-and-spend liberal.

The apparent problem is that Joe makes a little over $250,000 a year, and under Obama’s proposal that would put him into a higher tax bracket. Obama told Joe that he wasn’t trying to punish his success, only to spread the wealth around.

 
 

From McCain’s NATO enemy, Spain:

¿Quién es Joe el fontanero?

El domingo Obama se encontró en Ohio a ‘Joe el fontanero’, que quiere montar una empresa y teme que si los demócratas llegan al poder no pueda hacer realidad sus sueños.

McCain ha querido sacar partido de la anécdota, y hasta en diez ocasiones ha hecho mención a Joe, la primera poco después de que comenzara el debate en la Universidad de Hofstra en Nueva York. Con ese ejemplo, ha querido demostrar cómo la política tributaria de los demócratas afectaría al ciudadano de a pie.

Obama apuesta por favorecer a la clase media en detrimento de las pequeñas empresas, a lo que el republicano se opone. “No voy a permitir una subida de impuestos a las pequeñas empresas”, ha asegurado el republicano McCain.

Sane people in high-powered apprenticeship careers (plumbers, doctors, lawyers) generally accept that Joe 2008 making $200,000 instead of 250,000 a year is a pretty small price to pay for Joe 1997 making $20,000 a year instead of $10,000.

 
 

I think McCain will make an excellent President of Joe the Plumber. The rest of us will have to make do with B-Rock the Islamic Shock Hussein SuperAllah Obama.

 
 

And Jon-Jon The Cauliflower-Faced Boy: Fuck you, your policies will mean Joe has to pay two or three times as much ten years from now for a couple of measly dollars now.

You’re not a fucking teenager, putting things on credit doesn’t make them magically go away. America doesn’t have a wealthy father-in-law to pick up its fucking tab.

 
 

In an example of Jungian synchronicity, my latest browse through Wikipedia turned up a 1927 example of When Wingnuts Go Bad.

Bath School disaster

A man runs for school board, starts ranting about high taxes, and the next thing you know, he’s spent a year stockpiling dynamite under the school building and burns down his own farm. Forty three people were killed, (started his spree by murdering his wife) and he even tied his farm animals in their stalls to make sure they would die.

Eerie, especially since all McCain can say is “Obama will raise your taxes!”

I am heartily sick of people who make a ton of money and are greedy for more. I bet I give more to charity, proportionate to my income, than most of them do.

 
 

My favourite “Joe the plumber” moment was “Well done, Joe, you’re rich”. I was hanging out for “and fuck the poor” but he reined himself in.

 
 

Christ. McCain looked like he was just itchin’ to yell at Obama to get the hell off his lawn.

And “strong, aggressive, had a great debate”? Evidently the teeth’n’hair over at ABC have access to the same mind-altering substances as CNN, ’cause they were claiming the same thing tonight as well.

 
InsaneInTheCheneyBrain
 

FUCK! You guy always schedule stuff in SF when I’m not in SF, and NY when I’m not in NY. I mean seriously I could make this if you had had it TONIGHT instead of the night AFTER the debate.

F*$#&(*&#$(*&.

 
 

McCain’s biggest mistake: asking questions of Obama he doesn’t know the answer to. Every Q&A has given Obama the advantage in the debate.

 
 

who vetted joe the plumber?

 
 

Joe the Plumber wants to sell pipe to Bill Ayers

 
 

McCain’s campaign manager obviously told Mc to lie through his teeth in this debate. Unfortunately for him, it’s not paying off.

 
 

If Joe the Plumber is smart he’s working under the table.

 
 

No The Truth sightings tonight. Pussy.

 
 

McCain looked fucking creepy, baring his lower teeth and rolling his eyes. He looked seriously unhinged.

 
 

The lest time I was at Zeitgeist I hooked up with this case worker chick.

(I live in Denver, lol)

 
 

Go home, Dodgers.

Go home. Take Lasorda with you.

You never belonged in this postseason anyway.

Without renting Manny, you were a 72-90 team anyway.

Your above average pitching couldn’t carry your iron-gloved defense and your hitters full of choke. Hell, babe, nobody out of the National League West had any right to expect to do well in the post season, it was more just a case of somebody had to step up and be cannon fodder.

And that’s you, dodgers…

mikey

 
A la lanterne les aristos
 

Damnit, I love the Zeigeist. Yet I am broke and will have to go home and drink my last fridge beer instead.

I blame Obama’s tax program.

 
 

You guy always schedule stuff in SF when I’m not in SF, and NY when I’m not in NY.

Tell me about it.

 
 

The Dodgers blow prehistoric megafauna goats.

 
 

My God, David. That’s an absolute classic! It has to be blown up and plastered everywhere.

 
 

And “strong, aggressive, had a great debate”? Evidently the teeth’n’hair over at ABC have access to the same mind-altering substances as CNN, ’cause they were claiming the same thing tonight as well.

Hmmm…makes one wonder if they get their marching orders and are reading from the same memo. Nahh, couldn’t be, right?

Without renting Manny, you were a 72-90 team anyway.

Maybe I’m still sore because of the Cubs loss, but yeah…pretty much spot on with that analysis. Thank God they didn’t have an ’08 Herschiser to go with their ’08 Gibson, Manny.

 
 

McCain really blew his Columbian free trade deal speech.

Impression left: He doesn’t care if workers are being assassinated damn it because PROFITS@eleventy!

 
 

Photo of McCain leaving the stage

Choice.

Caption contest?

 
 

David Robinson, bwahah.

 
 

Unbelievable.

I get to SF, you do Sadly, Portland.
I get to Portland, you do Sadly, Boston.
Now I get a train ride away from Boston, and you’re back to Sadly, SF.

Fuck y’all. I hope it’s really sunny and the whole Mission takes a half-day.

 
 

Did you like “Palin is a fresh of breath air”?

 
 

Evidently the teeth’n’hair over at ABC have access to the same mind-altering substances as CNN…

Yup, pure horseshit – but it’s still way more believable than “Bush just sounds so… so Churchillian!!!!!!!!11

 
 

He certainly resembles his zombie base in that pic.

 
 

“Joe, you’re rich, congratulations!”

Boy is he out of touch!

Geezus. Joe just lost his 401K and McCain-on-the-public-health-plan is saying he can trust his health to private insurance companies. McCain must be thick if he thinks he can pull this shit with the American public.

And here’s a second one, with the two candidates and their wives.

Michael Jordan! Michael Jordan!

 
 

bummer I have plans tomorrow night I think.

 
 

Caption contest?

“I am the lizard king. I can do anything.”

Ah shit, D.A. already won.

 
 

McCain: “Palin appeals to American women”

Moderator: “McCain you believe in overturning Roe vs Wade.”

oops.

 
 

And I had blockquote fail.

 
 

That first McCain pic makes me think of that Calvin & Hobbes strip:

Calvin: This is you: Aggle Aggle Aggle!
Hobbes: This is you: Aauu auuauaa!
Calvin: Oh yeah? This is you: Gakka wakka wakka!
Hobbes: Well, you go like this: Duhh dahh dahh duhh!

 
 

Caption: I try to lick it myself, but it’s not really this big.

 
 

And “strong, aggressive, had a great debate”? Evidently the teeth’n’hair over at ABC have access to the same mind-altering substances as CNN, ’cause they were claiming the same thing tonight as well.

Hmmm…makes one wonder if they get their marching orders and are reading from the same memo. Nahh, couldn’t be, right?

Remember how Palin dominated the debate because she failed to piss herself on camera? You know, how even Maddow declared Palin the winner in defiance of the polls on the first night?

And how Palin was supposed to be hot and sassy for anyone except the evangelical creeps whose sex lives are dominated by whether someone’s beehive is too loose and as a consequence they’re a slut?

And the entire flop-about about the PUMAS and the Bill Ayers slur being meaningful, and the racist, insane ACORN conspiracy theorizing seeping into the MSM?

The only thing that could possibly explain the profound, Manchurian Candidate-level synchronicity between surreally innacurate yet ostensibly independent and objective reports of events is someone having a monopoly over the talking points.

I’m not entirely sure who or how, but the scenario implicitly dismissed by Chomsky in his scathing critique – that there was some kind of media-controlling evil conspiracy out there sitting at a physical table and deciding on what would be in the news tomorrow – is now at least partially true. They’ve crossed the line from whoredom to marionettehood. We are getting our news from an evil step-cousin of Sesame Street.

USA! USA! USA!

 
 

“AHHH The demons are coming out!!!”

 
 

Here’s the video of McCain mocking the health of the mother issue and calling it an extremist concern.

 
 

McCain: “Palin appeals to American women”

Moderator: “McCain you believe in overturning Roe vs Wade.”

Oh snap!

I’m pretty grim as to the future of reproductive rights in America. The anti-woman subculture within the evangelical movement has so comprehensively dominated first the Christianist position and now the generic ‘moral’ position that it’s acceptable to take plain lies as established fact.

More than half of the country exists in an alternate universe where Planned Parenthood is an abortion funnel, the established theological consensus is that life begins at arousal, and women even within marriage having the right to control their own bodies is radical and controversial.

How do you explain to people how insane and radical a position like Palin’s or McCain’s is if they’ve been told their whole lives that it’s what Aryan Jesus thinks on the matter?

McCain: And it’s not the fact — it’s not the fact that Sen. Obama chooses to associate with a guy who in 2001 said that he wished he had have bombed more, and he had a long association with him. It’s the fact that all the — all of the details need to be known about Sen. Obama’s relationship with them and with ACORN and the American people will make a judgment.

And my campaign is about getting this economy back on track, about creating jobs, about a brighter future for America. And that’s what my campaign is about and I’m not going to raise taxes the way Sen. Obama wants to raise taxes in a tough economy. And that’s really what this campaign is going to be about.

Such a smooth transition!

 
 

“I’m not George Bush, I just overwhelmingly vote for his policies.”

John McCain

 
 

can we have snap polls for everything? seriously, if i never have to hear half-wits like john king opine on anything ever again without taking into consideration other, smarter people, then life will be good.

and look at how the snap poll has modified chris matthews’ behavior–he has to bite his tongue. and it makes pat buchanan apologize for being a hack (“well, i think mccain won but i know the public isn’t going to agree with me…”). it makes john king and andrea mitchell clench their buttcheeks.

goddamn it’s good. i’m all, MSM, SNNNNNNNNNNAAAAAAAAAAAPPPP!

and they’re all pwned. bitches.

 
Tim (The Other One)
 

Andrea Mitchell clinches her butt cheeks.

I just wanted to clarify the image.

I AM Joe the Plumber bitches !

 
 

This might have slipped by among all the blinking and smirking, but McCain equated organ transplants with cosmetic surgery. When transplants aren’t covered, patients die, communities hold raffles, families hock their heirlooms. McCain referred to gold-plated policies that covered plastic surgery and transplants.

He should be smashed hard over that.

 
 

The fact is John McCain clearly won yet another debate. He crashed another jet into the bridge of the HMS Obama.

 
 

The hill is steep for McCain. He needs, first and foremost, for the economic anxiety to settle, and for President Bush to stop demonstrating his ineffectiveness with regular attempts to calm the country. McCain needs people to stop freaking out about their 401ks and their job security.

And may be there really is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

 
 

McCain’s closing: “I have a record [loooooong pause]

not exactly reassuring.

 
 

Joe the Plummer c’est moi.

 
 

Jaysus. What the fuck is wrong with that man?

OK, the first picture, highly disturbing, but, I viewed it as a candid photo taken when McPOW thought no one was looking.

But the second one … What. The. Fuck. Look at everyone else in the picture. You can almost hear them thinking “Poor gramps, we need to get him home before starts masturbating in front of everyone. Again.”

Is he trying to appeal to Bill the Cat fans?

W.T.F?!?

 
 

I watched the debate just now and the first pic was caught in a split second (pro photographers are good!). You can see him doing it but it’s so quick… Second one, not sure what was going on there. Maybe his inner fetus was kicking in applause for his Roe v Wade position.

 
 

My friends, “Joe the Plummer” is a euphemism for my penis.

 
 

Video of the moment when the first picture was taken. Tongue comes out around the 18 second mark.

 
 

McCain’s answer on Supreme Court judges is not exactly gonna make the religious right do cartwheels down the aisle to vote for this guy.

 
DisconsolateChimera
 

So, I was flipping through channels post debate and noted two things. First, in one of those kill-three-seconds-before-cutting-to-commercial shots, Faux showed Greta von? van? Sussssturustertenenen, looking none too happy, first full face then slowly turning to profile. I swear to FSM she looked just like Sam the Eagle. Second, again on Faux, Hume was interviewing Krauthammer. K’s drinking game must have revolved around “Joe the Plumber.” ’cause the only time I’ve seen anyone enunciate so perfectly, and tell the truth so bluntly, well…

 
 

All through the debate, I kept turning to my son and saying, “There’s something wrong with that old man. He’s had a stroke or something.” My son said, “Check out that blinking. He looks like he’s on speed.” I have to agree, he looked and acted like he was wired for sound, or was having some sort of manic episode.

How could the fuckin’ MSM possibly entertain the idea that there was anything remotely good about McCain’s performance? How? How? Did they all have a collective stroke? And those moron undecideds on that panel afterward? wtf is that all about? Did they all have strokes too? There is something wrong with all those people. Maybe it’s the mercury in the water, you know, the safe level of mercury the Bushies assure us we can live with. Dain. Brammage.

And that description of gold-plated health insurance, with the cosmetic surgeries and transplants? I am in accord with Dr. BDH. That was perhaps the most stunning thing the doddering old fool said, even more so than his open contempt for women’s health. Un-fucking-believable. I thought I was well past the stage where any of this shit would surprise me. Huh. Live ‘n learn.

Oh, and I gotta say, in all of Obama’s stellar performance, I most loved the part where he refused to repudiate Lewis. So refreshing to see a Democrat stand up and . . . well, stand up. Well played, Mr. Obama, well played.

 
 

I think I know what McCain’s next MaverickMove will be.
He’s gonna endorse Obama, on the hopes that his, McCain’s, unpopularity will drag down the Dem ticket.

 
 

In the second debate McCain referred to “hair transplants” and tried to make a self-deprecating joke.

And if you do the math, those people who have employer-based health benefits, if you put the tax on it and you have what’s left over and you add $5,000 that you’re going to get as a refundable tax credit, do the math, 95 percent of the American people will have increased funds to go out and buy the insurance of their choice and to shop around and to get — all of those people will be covered except for those who have these gold-plated Cadillac kinds of policies.

You know, like hair transplants, I might need one of those myself. But the point is that we have got to give people choice in America and not mandate things on them and give them the ability. Every parent I know would acquire health insurance for their children if they could.

Tonight he said “transplants and all those kinds of things.”

Now, 95 percent of the people in America will receive more money under my plan because they will receive not only their present benefits, which may be taxed, which will be taxed, but then you add $5,000 onto it, except for those people who have the gold-plated Cadillac insurance policies that have to do with cosmetic surgery and transplants and all of those kinds of things.

Maybe he wanted to say something similar to what he said in the second debate but left out the hair part and the joke. Maybe he didn’t. Who knows what “all of those kinds of things” are. There are times when it’s getting hard to tell what exactly he wants to say.

 
A la lanterne les aristos
 

Not to come to McCain’s defense, but given he was basically repeating his lines from the last debate he probably meant to say “hair transplants” rather than just “transplants”.

Of course, that sort of error is one of the perils of spending your time attempting to get all your buzz words inserted instead of actually *debating* the issues.

Dr. Sherriylin Roush, associate professor of philosophy at Berkley University, compares current research of Bigfoot to early scientific skepticism of meteroites.

http://www.berkeley.edu/news/berkeleyan/2008/02/27_bigfoot.shtml

 
Josh St. Lawrence
 

In the early nineteenth century, the scientifiic establishment dismissed eyewittness reports of meteroites, saying that rocks falling from the sky were impossible.

Sound familiar to the current scientific establishment declaring that the existence of a large undiscovered species of primate living in the forests of the Pacific Northwest is impossible?

 
 

As I recall it, Joe Plumber was telling Obama that he expected to make between $270,000-280,000 a year. This is McInsane’s everyman?? It was howlingly funny when he tried to assert that Barry was gonna fine Joe P. if the he refused to provide health care for his family (what, he can’t afford it on $280,000 a year?) and Barry said “Nope. Not true. Doesn’t apply to small businesses”. McInsane looked like he was gonna punch whoever briefed him in the throat!

 
 

To Senator John McCain:

U R not doin’ it right.

Furthermore, ACK!

 
 

The replay has begun, and I keep thinking of the trial scene from Animal House.
McCain is so tone deaf it’s beautiful.

 
 

As I recall it, Joe Plumber was telling Obama that he expected to make between $270,000-280,000 a year.

Uhh…Wouldn’t only the 20-30 thou above $250,000 be in the higher tax bracket? IE, not a whole bunch of extra tax there, relatively.

Who’s Joe’s accountant? There are many, many ways to defer, donate, amortize, etc. to lighten your tax load.

I think Joe’s just being greedy and ginning up false controversy.

 
 

D.A.: 415 reprazent!1!

 
 

Josh, shut it, please.

Where is that ‘pie’ filter again?

 
 

Long time Sadly-naught reader/ lurker, first time inquirer regarding Sadly No SF meetup. You mean the zeitgest in the mission right? Valencia and 15th ish?

 
 

I’m thinking about giving McCain a pity-vote. I just feel so bad for him.
He looks loster and more uncomfortable than someone that accidently wandered-in during the 11th hour of a ‘Lost’ marathon never having heard of the programme.

 
 

Caption: “Even my tongue can’t take the bullshit I’m spewing anymore…it’s trying to escape!”

 
 

Henry Lewis; here is the YouTube linky http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFC9jv9jfoA . Obama was clear about that. That the income over 250K will be the ones he sees an extra 3% tax.

Watch the clip. It shows what a classy man Obama is. If Joe Plumber were a Democrat and Obama was a Republican, he would never have made it through the preselected audience. If he managed to get around the guards, he would have been told, “I hope you thanks our troops for your right to protest!” and ignored.

 
 

GMFD!

Ignore the atrocious grammar and typos. I’m off to bed!

 
 

Old white guys should NOT try to perform the haka in public.

 
 

Whoever did McCain’s makeup seemed to have only a passing familiarity with the human face.

 
"Oh Stewardess, I Speak 'Nut"
 

I liked the part near the beginning when McPOW talked about Teh Greatest Depression as if he had been there. And then I realized, the poor dear, he was.

Michelle O. will be the most beautiful first lady since Jackie O.

 
 

Well, the toilet went crazy
Yersterday afternoon
The plumber he says
Never flush a tampoon!
This great information
Cost me half a weeks pay
And the toilet blew up
Later on the next day-ay-eee-ay
Blew up the next day

 
 

Old white guys should NOT try to perform the haka in public.
Ur not doing it rite.

 
 

Caption: “Look! Snow! Catch it on your tongue!”

 
 

Thank you Henry Lewis. If Joe makes $280k, 30k will be taxed at a 3% higher rate. That’s $900 in extra tax. This is going to cripple Joe’s ability to buy health insurance and purchase a business worth Approximately 2.5 million? (if it has profits of 280k per year) Can’t anybody out there do simple math?

Au contraire. The makeup artist was very familiar with the human face. That’s why he was so badly thrown by the misshapen lump of dough on the front of McPOW’s head.

And if anyone wants to describe the image I just linked to as “The Palin / McCain campaign”, I could not possibly comment.

Caption 2: ’23 Skidoo! That ice cream was some good eatin’!’

 
 

Zeitgeist is at Valencia & Duboce, 1 (long) block south of Market, 2 (long) blocks north of 15th.

Any specific time? Or is punctuality for elites?

 
 

Gotta love McCain’s plan to recruit teachers, though. It’s bloody brilliant! Take a bunch of people who have been fighting in a war, many of them possibly suffering from PTSD, then make them teach a bunch of rugrats with no stupid exams, training or certification. I thought McCain was against torture?

I watched NBC, couldn’t stand any more of ‘Babbling’ Brooks on PBS. Split screen rocked!

Mitt came on afterwards, told more lies, spun his pretty head off trying to do damage control. Um, Mitt, we just watched it live, but thanks for the filter – your base might buy it though.

I would have liked to see Obama go for the throat over the negative thing, but he’s a cool customer. Let McCain look like a hothead and a crank (in other words, be himself). Obama sailed through all shiny and smooth.
