Lemme just say this... those fuckers hired known Bush butt-sniffer Rudy Giuliani to come speak to Lands' End (owned by sears) when I worked there, RIGHT BEFORE ELECTIONS. About 1/4 of the people there were pissed off enough when he started stumping for Bush to actually walk out. There was a great deal of backlash from Madisonians. This was all in the papers, I'm not disclosing anything new. But this snippet certainly confirms what I was pretty goddam sure of to start with. Man I'm angry. My fuckin hard work helped fund that illegal contribution, and it makes my blood boil.

LooG,
Is it hard working for a party that's barreling toward oblivion?
Not trying to be a dick. I'm just generally curious about you folks in the trenches face each day.

Nationally, I can't fucking stand it. Working for teh guy I work for right now, its hard to not see my self on the precipice of something HUGE.

Yeah, ignorance of the national party is the best medicine.

But the fact that people like LooGar actually still work for the Party make me feel pretty good sometimes.

Damn, an open compliment of me by Jurtz is few and far between, and alway fucking cool. I know he feels, but dude keeps me in check like a brother should...tough love.

Second one of the day, actually. Enjoy it while it lasts, Jocko

who are you and what have you done with Bloor?

PS - check yall's damned-ol email already.

Damn, mang. Wait'll you see the new Truckster, you'll hate me again in no time

...new truckster, cd-buyin binge... yall got dat sweet-sweet paycheck or what?

Naah, just been managing my money better with the girl around, and the tow are simpatico, cos the Truckster has DAT 6 DISC. Pretty cool, and should get me back to LISTENING TO ALBUMS, as opposed to just collecting mp3s//

Yes, but does the truckster have an emergency BBQ Sammich compartment, complete with break-away glass door?

Dude, OF COURSE>>> filled with 3 different types of delecious bbq. Pulled pork from The Brick Pit, smoked ham from Country's, and ribs from Dreamland. OnStar keeps it filled for me, and its like when the airbag is deployed, THEY call ME and let me know where to pick up my next fix.

"Senator, we noticed the BBQ Deployment Vessel is low. Should we steer the car to the Brick Pit by remote, or do you have the strength to do it?"

we just imagined the following convo with OnStar:

OS: OnStar, how can we help you?
Loog (speaking in the "Carl from Slingblade" voice: hmm you got any hmm barbecue in there?
OS: Sir?
Loog: hmm. french fried potatos. hmm. barbecue. some folks call it a kaiser blade. hmm

And, Jeff Flake (R-AZ) puppets what i said earlier. in the WSJ, courtesy of The Note:

We refer you to the Honorable Mr. Flake's Wall Street Journal op-ed piece, in which the self-term-limited Member (no Nethercuttian reversal here) decries his party's inability to limit deficit-inducing spending.

One of Flake's subsidiary points is key: that his party is going to have to learn to be less reliant on spending without much of a threat of being punished at the ballot box in 2006.

Why is the threat virtually non-existent?

Flake writes, with an antiseptic non-fervor that nonetheless reveals the dirty little non-secret that explains why the Republicans Party is not panicking in the face of hurricanes-gas prices-Iraq: ". . . [E]ndemic Democratic ineptitude makes Republicans more attractive when graded on a curve."

god this was the hardest I've laughed all day. outside of DeLay gettin indicted, of course.

yeah, it cracks me up too....the Carl From Slingblade voice gets me everytime *wipes tears*

I thought ths was kinda funny too.
