Not to mention Lieberman as a member of the Court....
Wheres Hillary ?
KUMBAYA, MUTHAFUCKAZ.
don't know 'bout y'all, but i got me some full moon fever tonite...
It looks like Hillary took her Tiara....ooops...
( Poor Joe would much rather have that Prada Gown that Anderson is wearing....)
If you made Lieberman the court jester it would be perfect
The royal fkups.
whats up with the cheap queer shot at Anderson? so who cares who the dude sleeps with it, hate that crap
what about Sen. Lindsay Graham (creeeeak) as a lady-in-waiting?....not that there's anything wrong with that
Let's petition France to take it's guillotine out of mothballs and send to us.
CHRISTIAN SCHOOL FOUNDER BUSTED FOR SOLICITING SEX FROM A PARENT!
Bet y'all $100 he's a Republican.
John McCain looks like Burger King. Well, anyway we know what happened to Marie Antoinette and the rest of that gang, don't we? Also, you forgot to put King George in this picture.

ferrofluid @ 2:
That's an entirely different tableau with Barack Obama as Sydney Carton and Hillary Clinton as Madame DeFarge. BTW, agree with Dennis that cheap shots against gays spoil the impact.
Dennis @ 7:
Technically, it would be the transgendered aspect of the picture that draws the attention. Not only does the juxtaposition of genders on one person remain a staple of comedy in our culture, but otherwise progressive blogs sometimes take jabs at political opponents by noting that his/her mannerisms or appearance do not conform to what society expects of his/her birth sex. It bothers me too, though I'm often told to lighten up when I mention it.
Let them eat Passion Fruit Mousse
Dennis @ 7:
Ass-u-me, or in this case ass-u-Anderson.
From GLAAD media guide:
Queer
Traditionally a pejorative term, queer has been appropriated by some LGBT people to describe themselves. Some value the term for its defiance and because it can be inclusive of the entire LGBT community. Nevertheless, it is not universally accepted even within the LGBT community and should be avoided unless quoting someone who self-identifies that way.
Homophobia comes out of the closet where the ironic board is stored, lol.;-}
Karen @ 13:
Never thought I'd agree with Dennis. I don't get it? Is Cooper Anderson a shill for McCain?
Yaaawwwnnnn.
karl rove ought to switch sides, steal perino from that lymie twit and grow himself a grover cleveland mustache.
i mean, c'mon, how long can one defend the indefensible?
Whoops, meant Anderson Cooper...whatever.

Leslie [Bitter Elitist Hussein] @ 16:
The Corporate Media has shilled for the Republican party (and its own short term economic interests) ever since the elimination of of the Fairness Doctrine and Bill Clinton's telecommunications act. Except for a very few notable exceptions, talking heads do what their Corporate paymasters tell them to do, Cooper is no exception.
Just take a look at how the Corporate Media is covering the incomes of the candidates, CNN is giving McCain a free pass attempting to paint him as one of us by excluding his wife's income:
CNN chart purporting to compare candidates' "wealth" omitted Cindy McCain, who is reportedly worth $100 million

Good night. Sorry I wasn't more help. I was trying to figure out why the site monitor was taking so much of what I had to say under consideration. Sometimes I have to wonder about this place.

I was a dirty hippie at one time. I was damned by persons..... But,it's funny. When I played in the band(s) the same people who called Me names allof a sudden called Me better words. Hmmmmm.
Yyyaaaaawwwwwwwnnnnnnn.
Sorry to bore ya bud. Just wanna say "hey Ron'.

It's not you at all. Check my comment at 92. I don't know how badly we are going to be censored anymore.
Operation Mockingbird is really in effect even today!! So says the New York Times. The Pentagon is putting its own people on the news shows and skewing the reporting.
Hey everybody. Seems quiet here tonight.

Hmmm I was allowed my mind game,but nobody wanted to play. way too serious,but I understand. I hoped bein a saturday folks would play along.

Ron @ 103:
I must be missing something Ron. When did you get censored? The only site monitor deletions I can find don't seem to have anything to do with you. Another thread perhaps?
Why Anderson Cooper?
What has he done to deserve to be in the picture?

Ron @ 97:
What are you talking about? What was censored?
Peter G @ 109:
They deleted everything but my comments, but mine were under consideration at the time. We had a racist earlier.
Tell us,Ron.
tHezombieHusseinGaMeOfLiFe @ 116:
It was [censored] and [censored] thats all ;)
David Hawes @ 118:
If I say what the derogatory remarks were, they will be deleted and I would almost as guilty as the person that first brought them up.
Now there's something strange. I was reading some obtuse post about "top ten myths" but when I refreshed it disappeared without site monitor comment. What's up with that?
Orangutan. @ 56:
"[Corporations] have no soul to save, and they have no body to incarcerate." -Baron Thurlow
A corporation IS NOT A 'PERSON', goddammit! A corporation serves the same purpose as a bank robber's ski mask: something to hide behind while you do horrible immoral shit, all in the quest for a giant pile of cash to roll around in naked. Created of, by, and for, the rich white men. After all, it's not really stealing if you wear a suit and tie when you do it.
Speaking of which...

i'd wager even george h.w., james baker 3 & bob gates ALL hate the rothschilds.
billy simpson @ 97-
I'm a Michigander who voted for "uncommitted" in January, and if I could have, I'd have voted for Edwards. If we held another primary tomorrow, I'd probably vote for Obama.
But it's Obama's supporters in our Congress who won't sign on to a new primary. They see something that you don't: without Detroit- or, more realistically, without the support of the scandal-ridden Mayor of Detroit, Kwame Kilpatrick, who controls the political machine there, Obama would stand a good chance at suffering a defeat here. Possibly an ugly defeat. He might squeak out Wayne County, but Oakland and Macomb Counties (almost certainly the latter) would most probably go to Clinton. Obama might take Livingston County (Ann Arbor) and the Lansing area, Kent County(Grand Rapids) would be a toss up, as I think would Kalamazoo County, but the backwards-ass rural north of the state would definitely go to Clinton.
So don't blame her for playing it smart and keeping her name on the ballot earlier, and don't blame her for our lack of a real primary.
But you can blame the GOP- both the former Governor, John Fucking Engler and the current asshat in the White House- for laying the foundations for our economic plight and then making sure it doesn't get fixed. That's what forced us to move our primary up: we wanted our problems addressed, and we wanted to have a wide array of candidates to address those problems, not the two candidates that we usually get by the time our primay has rolled around in the past.
Ron @ 125:

I'm glad to see that disappearing post wasn't just in my imagination. Where did it go?
Andy K Jong Il @ 129:
If i am not mistaken if Michigan had another primary all the Republicans could vote as well and since they have a presumptive nominie they could vote for the Democratic Candidate Least Likely To Succeed.
Am i right?

Chris the troll gets to stay up until midnight on weekends so I was concerned.
chris @ 123:
chris- did you go back into the archives about three years and dig up my Baron Thurlow quote? Damn! It's good to see someone else who knows it!
C'mon, now...Where's the Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad link?
It would be good, i think, to have all the Primaries on the same day. It would make the whole process a lot less like a chess game and a lot more like Democracy.

Yes! McGovern got nominated and lost so they decided to take democracy out of the process. What a great idea!
Peter G @ 140:
FIFY
xoites defends Constitution @ 134:
Nope. It would have been Democrats only. On the ballots, that is- open to all voters, funded privately. You don't have to register one way or the other to vote in our primaries. You had to in '88, iirc, but that law was shot down.
And if your point is that Republicans would show up and vote for Clinton, I could make the argument that they'd vote for Obama, thinking him the beatable candidate in November.
xoites defends Constitution @ 131:
Nah, you can tell the difference because this chris makes sense...and yeah, i think they turn off the innernet at his KOA trailer park around 9.

But they could have in the past, too, if they had wished to. And we could have done it to them in, say, '96. And some of us might have. Not me. Just sayin'.
Andy K Jong Il @ 143:
Andy, I have to disagree. The repugnantcants want to go against Clinton. Faux Snooze is all over that. They think she will be easier to beat.
Peter G @ 146:
That jump shot would knock me over and you'd be called for a foul charging, technically. BTW, NBA playoffs started today ;-}
xoites defends Constitution @ 147:
I believe they decided to leave it in his hands to give him a better chance of getting past St Peter.
