How come HST isn't wearing an American Flag lapel pin like the tall, handsome, not yet 50 Senator from the heartland?

I tell ya' we gotta torture more a them towel heads and find all the bad guys, ya'know smoke em out. Ah-he ah-he. Bring em on.

Here we go again.....

Beyond Fleece.

Probably a personal attack on you. It's all he's got.

I'll thank you to keep me out of this.

Ummmmm.... can we consider the facts for just a second before the rants? Consider where this latest failed attempt originated from: Amsterdam. So TSA workers are to blame? Please explain.

Clapton sucks compared to Eddie. You're confusing quantity with quality.

"This is goood; just needs more salt!"

I've done Florence Peak as a winter snowshoe hike/ scramble, though years ago. That route very nearly follows the one your map shows. Although you are indeed "never completely safe" from avalanches, I don't recall much hazardous terrain, and going to the lake should be reasonable except under very unstable conditions. Driving to the TH is arguably as risky. If you have enough daylight, clear skies, and stable snow, mosey on over to the top of Florence to satisfy the peakbagger that lurks within and get a fairly good view of the N side of Rainier.

Smarter than the average Teabagger.

Reagan in the 80s at least had a Congress that was willing to do more than take the country down to make the other side look like loosers. Grover Norquist, one of the chief instigators of this scorched earth approach likened bipartisanship with the Rs to date rape.

Maybe a bit of the herb would help ol' FW be less bitter. Those two dudes above look plenty relaxed.

Not that I've given up on ignoring FW, but...... He's pretty well proven in this thread that he believes that his own special prejudices and preconceptions define truth. Just where does he gat all that jreck, since he claims to be such an independent thinker? There is a ton of anecdotal evidence, thousands of clinical trials, or volumes of physiological studies that indicate that yeah, there is something to acupuncture. Placebo effect enter into the equation? Sure, same as with allopathic medicine. Or you can, just like with oh, say- climatology find nay sayers and proclaim that they alone stand for truth, justice and the American Way. Go ahead. Oh, and BTW, Joe is a lying sack.

I'm ignoring you (FW) from now on; it's a total waste of time conversing with someone so far removed from reality. 'Bye.

Wal-Mart sells plain T shirts for a lot less. That and a $0.70 Sharpie gives you the functional equivalent. Though perhaps not as cool.

Fuck you both.

But seriously folks, WTF happened to "Change?" He implied that we was gonna see things done differently, and what have we gotten..... not much. I'm still waiting for him to to tell the right wing fucktards to STFU and do something. "Waiting" might be too strong a word though; wishing perhaps. After eight years of the worst administration in recent history (perhaps ever) it's time for some serious ass-whupping instead of this bipartisan BS and mucking about with the status quo.

It was the shock of realizing that he works for a Kenyan imposter, and the deep psychological scars from having had a crappy tent as a child.

And.... they sell it at Wal Mart, so you can pick some up next time you're in there tent shopping.

You're welcome. But last time I checked, we hadn't yet twisted our collective conservative, freedom-loving heel into this public option nonsense. What happened to you pussies anyhow? Hell, you control Congress and the Exec. Not by a long shot. Bought and sold they be, bought and sold. (you) Teabagging nitwits just give dipshits like Bauccus, Nelson and Joe-Blow some populist cover. The only thing is gonna help is to get the huge piles of corporate money out of the equation, and I don't see that happening. So, yeah, bring on the redneck apocalypse.

Glory hole?

Indeed, Republican men “felt significantly more controlled, submissive, unhappy and unpleasant at the moment of the outcome” than those who voted for Obama, the researchers wrote. “Moreover, since the dominance hierarchy shift following a presidential election is stable for four years, the stress of having one’s political party lose control of executive policy decisions could plausibly lead to continued testosterone suppression in males.” I suppose that explains why KKK's been so cranky lately.

I think I saw one on eBay..... left over from the "Mission Accomplished" photo-op.

I got through about 45 seconds of this...... wow! Hard to believe she has to look at her notes so frequently when everything she says is pure gibberish. Nice use of expressive hand gestures though.
