Raindawg Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Four years ago, a group of climbers gathered together in an attempt to elect THEIR MAN, Mr. John Kerry, to the office of President of the United States. Organizing in ways that only climbers can in an effort to swing the election toward THEIR MAN, Mr. John Kerry, they have been described with the following goals: * "Motivate Climbers to Vote," * "Raise $150,000 by July 25th for the Kerry campaign" and *"Send a constant stream of climbers up the NA Wall on El Capitan in September to 'Take Back North America'." Some joyous Kerry supporters klimbing for THEIR MAN. Go team! A post-election Kerry being Konsoled. If you didn't Klimb4Kerry, or at least attempt a Yosemite Big Wall in his honor, then you got what you deserved: another four years of Dubya. Yes, it's your fault. But check it out! You've got another chance to climb your way to a liberal president: Climbers for Obama It's got 37 members now and I bet they'll all vote for the guy, Big-Wall 'Bama, that is! Quote
olyclimber Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Vote for Raindawg, the guy with nothing positive to say...ever. So what do you think about McCain's VP choice Dawg? She a good pick? Quote
pink Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 wouldn't make more sense to climb the reticent wall? Quote
Raindawg Posted September 8, 2008 Author Posted September 8, 2008 Vote for Raindawg, the guy with nothing positive to say...ever. Not so, pal. How long have you been around here? I've posted some pretty funny stuff on this site over the years, although much of it has been satire. Sorry I don't have much positive to say about the way alot of climbing is conducted today... But here's a couple of positive things just for you! So what do you think about McCain's VP choice Dawg? She a good pick? Another four years, another pair of silly choices. You can decide who's less experienced...'bama or Palin. Quote
olyclimber Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Choose between two negatives? How like you! So which negative is better? Quote
Doug Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Well that would be the negative thats got the most positive! duh! Quote
StevenSeagal Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 wouldn't make more sense to climb the reticent wall? "Climbers for McCain" will be seiging Horse Chute. Quote
Dechristo Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Raindawg is very positive. He just posits in a negative form. Quote

111 Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 cant we just take the $150,000 raised and go on a himalaya expedition? Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Now that's some smart thinking. Quote
EWolfe Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 You just want to see the old days when climbers were reticent and outcasts. To see any affiliation or groupthink of any kind in your mind is equal to a crushing of the climbing spirit. Fixation on outcome beyond your control is very sad, but not altogether unexpected. It keeps one from experiencing the joy of acceptance. Your loss, Raindawg. Quote

To see any affiliation or groupthink of any kind in your mind is equal to a crushing of the climbing spirit. Groupthink is the crushing of the HUMAN spirit. Enjoy goose-stepping with the masses! Fixation on outcome beyond your control is very sad, but not altogether unexpected. It keeps one from experiencing the joy of acceptance. That's truly weak. Accept it all! Here ya go! And while you're at it: Your loss, Raindawg. Read his hat: Quote

Frikadeller Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 cant we just take the $150,000 raised and go on a himalaya expedition? Thats the best suggestion yet.. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Groupthink is the crushing of the HUMAN spirit. Enjoy goose-stepping with the masses! Not to split hairs here, but aren't those the guys that got rid of the nazis? Quote
EWolfe Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Hey, Raindawg? The "extremist" card to drive home your point is pretty played out. Quote
underworld Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 bigwalls for obama: poop in tubes and be scared of what is ahead! Quote
G-spotter Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Since Mccain can't raise his arms above shoulder height i'm guessing they will stick to slabs? Quote
