'to the sock puppet generator' has any friends at all. Other than imaginary ones that is. On second thought, even they wouldn't like him. That just leaves the friends he had to buy. But what sort of a friend can you buy with food stamps? Yup, he's pooched himself.
'But what sort of a friend can you buy with food stamps?'
He can buy dog food, but even his pooch ran away, so he's got to eat those Kibbles and Bits all by himself.
You haven't a clue, your thick head couldn't begin to understand.
Enlighten us, oh great and wise one of the web.
Let your wisdom shine forth and light our journey through life and into the Here-after.
On second thought, F*ck Off and die, web troll.
I may owe you an apology. If you are the target of that Smiley D a-hole, and replying to his attack, then I sincerely apologize for my retort. However, If you ARE the Smiley D a-hole who goes around attacking people, then I reiterate my last post. And redouble it in Spades.
and the Repubs are showing no compassion whatsoever let's continue.
Piggy Palin, the tundra tart is now screaming SEXISM over the criticism of her remake. She is also doing the shuck and jive on FOX as noted by the following.
'Those clothes are not my property. We had three days of using clothes that the RNC purchased,' Palin told Fox News in an interview that aired Thursday night.
In one shopping spree for Palin, the RNC spent $75,062 at Neiman Marcus in Minneapolis. It also spent $49,425 at Saks Fifth Avenue and $4,902 at Atelier, a stylish men's store, and paid $92 for a romper and matching hat with ears for her infant son, Trig, at Pacifier, a Minneapolis baby store.
The McCain campaign reported paying $13,200 in September to celebrity makeup artist Amy Strozzi, who works on the reality show 'So You Think You Can Dance.' She was paid $22,800 for the first two weeks of October, nearly double what the campaign paid McCain's foreign policy adviser, Randy Scheunemann, according to a filing report.'
Oh. My. God. So now it is about $130,000 in clothes for 3, count 'em, 3 days. Those are HER words. $13,200 for make up in Sept. And a whopping $22,800 for the first two weeks of Oct. twice what a foreign policy advisor received, further proof thet the Repubs prefer style over substance. But the Repubs have no style whatsoever and even less class. $36,000 for face paint in 6 weeks? That is some fiscal responsibility. It just keeps getting worse and worse. Yup, you can paint a pig, but you can't get her snout out of the trough.
I wonder if...

RE: 'While Barak may believe the American electorate understands his absence, I doubt Putin or Ahmadinejad would.'
Answer: Biden has his back.
People will decide whatto believe ,I hope rather on figures and statistics than on unsubstantiated affirmations .Especially if from sources as Sossel who claims the life expectancy is reduced by gun rlated crimes in one article and claims gun control will raise crime rates in another .I would never use a person contradicting himself so flagrantly as a source for anything ,especially if he can not substantiate his claims with any figures or statistics .It is also a n estzablished fact that health care in the USA costs almost twice as much as in Europe,per capita.I guess that,as well as the statistics take care of the affirmation that universal halth care causes redtape problems.I can vow for that,and so can your expats working in Belgium,there are thousands of US citizens in Brussels ,they see things a bit differently from GOP posters..
Here is their experienced vision;

RE: 'You mean LOSE the war in Iraq. A war that we are on the threashold of winning.'
Answer: We will have won the 'war in Iraq' only if we never have to go back in and bloody up the place again.
RE: 'Sure, turn it over to the government and they will fix it like they fix everything else.'
Answer: Yes, just like they are fixing the war in Iraq, forevermore.
At tonny from belguim,
You are most definitely right, health care in America needs to be fixed sooner than later, especially for all those not able to afford good health care.
What Threshold?
RE: 'You mean LOSE the war in Iraq. A war that we are on the threshold of winning.'
Answer: We will have won the 'war in Iraq' only if we never have to go back in and bloody up the place again.
So.... like I said, Obvama will LOSE the war in Iraq. Indeed he will lose the war on islamist terrorism.
'I can vow for that,and so can your expats working in Belgium,there are thousands of US citizens in Brussels ,they see things a bit differently from GOP posters..'
I have been to Belgium and everything about it is tedious. Especially the sanctimonious french (And you ARE french, get over it) marxist parasites who don't know the first thing about the USA other then what they read in the guardian or Le Monde.
You have good health care because you are a bunch of leeches. You leech off the British for EU payments and you leech off the USA for defense. If Obama gets elected your free ride might end after our economy goes in the toilet and you can kiss your leeched health care that you never shut the hell up about goodbye.
It's too bad your 'leech off of someone else' health care system wouldn't work here. No one would let us mooch off them the way you routinely get away with.
Not only health care should be improved,most certainly also education.I find it interesting how the neocons always claim other countries leech of the USA whilst at the same time claiming they need to spends as much as the rest of the world combined on weapons to defend the 'free world' against ???
Muslim terrorists,Iran?North Korea?Who exactly ?
Reality is different of course,look at the plans to install rockets in Europe against the so called rogues states.Nobody wants them here at all,yet ther neocons keep pressuring us ?why ?
There is no threat from Iran .Just stupid neocon spin claiming the Iran,the economical and military equivalent of Finland is preparing to launch missiles on the USA or Europe .One has to be an intellectual moron in order to believe such nonsense.
Of course behind those intellectual simpletons there are the armamant merchants as usual.now that the cols war is over they found a new ennemy ti provide an excuse for absurd military spending .And of course the only candidate that is willing to increase even more the military budget is McCain.Hiding behind his back...the neocons.
These guys ,like CHeney are afraid Obama will get elected as then all the secret deals they made with Bush will come into the floodlights.
Right now gagging orders are preventing those that know about the secret deals between the GOP and the military industrial complex to speak out.I'm already enjoying the moment SIbel Edmonds will be invited to speak out freely after Obama is elected.
McCain likes to say that we're winning in Iraq. Well Last month 98 Iraqi policemen were killed, 164 people were killed, 366 wounded. Attacks killed 500 civilians - 17 a day, 17 American soldiers died, 102 wounded. 19000 Iraqis remain in American military prisons, 3 million driven from their homes have still not returned. Baghdad still just gets 11 hrs of electriticy each day compared to 20 hrs before the war. Granted things are better but a far cry from a unified, democratic, safe and stable nation that Bush, McCain and Palin tell us. This is all still not within reach as they are foisting this lie on the American people.
read was all about Barack.
