prole Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Diver Down is without a doubt the best rock album of the last four hundred years. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 "Once you're on the Cain Train...!" Â Somehow, I doubt his campaign investment/speaking fee venture will produce a positive return at this point. Â Washington Outsider! Quote
prole Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 He'll be a fixture on Fox News, that GOP nursing home for retired clowns, in no time. Or doing stints on the sexual addiction treatment circuit. Quote
ivan Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Yes, we're now living in a spoof of our own society. unlike that yahoo jonathan swift? Quote
j_b Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Herman Cain was never supposed to "take off". Leave it to the idiocracy of the GOP base to turn him into a legitimate contender. "9-9-9!!" Â Yes, we're now living in a spoof of our own society. Â Cain had the advantage of sounding sincere, which cannot be said for most of the other clowns. Quote
prole Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 They've been saying irony is dead for a while now, but satire too? Â It's my sincere hope that we'll be able to look back at this period in history and have a good laugh. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 (edited) He sure sounded full of shit from day one to me. Â A trait which instantly qualifies him for a talking head job at FOX. I'm gonna have to retract my previous statement in light of recent history. Â BLACK CONSERVATIVE = BLACK GOLD. Edited November 4, 2011 by tvashtarkatena Quote
j_b Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Sure but it didn't detract from the usual quack theories they typically buy into. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 I gotta say that Cain is the best reality TV (OK, the ONLY reality TV) I've seen in a long time. He's gittin' his BLAME ON! Â Â Quote
j_b Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Romney is a really, really bad liar and Perry gives the impression he would have been a good car salesman. What were GOPers supposed to do? Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 You can imagine the 20-something cam that night...jerky cam shots of some big ole' slobberin' drunk married black boss man tailing ya all evening, beggin' for a quickie in his hotel room. Â Drunk, horny, and republican. Â SEXY. Â Â Quote

tvashtarkatena Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 The GOPers should rally behind Huntsman, but, like, he's betrayed the party by actually being serious about the public interest. Plus, he's not dysfunctional enough - he'll never relate to the base thataway. Quote

Â Drunk, horny, fat, old, married, and republican. Â SEXY. Â Â Or however many nights that was. Two and counting... Â ...but I'm sure they were isolated incidents. Â Yeah. They always are.

That ain't good. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Nothin' wrong with a spoon full o sugar. Â Quote

Sure, he is anti-war (although he gave a blank check to GW in 2001) but what's another flip-flop, which by definition is not permanent. To boot, the GOP base has finally reached Paul's level of market fundamentalism and hatred of social policies. I suspect it isn't impossible that Paul would gain from Cain's demise. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Oh, I don't know. Restricted calorie diet + levity = longevity. Quote
j_b Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Oh, I don't know. Restricted calorie diet + levity = longevity. Â May be, but you shouldn't be too thin when you grow old. You might need reserves. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Don't rush me. I'm still at the 'could use fewer reserves' stage. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 The convention's 10 months away. A lot could happen. Huntsmen could come up from the rear (in a non-Cain-like fashion, I mean). Given the state of the GOP right now, I give that about a .00001% chance, but still... Â Where's Karl when you need him? Quote
ivan Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Yeah, I'm not a big fan, but more 'cause it's been shown that these shows constitute the primary news source for a disturbingly large number of liberals. show me your internutz searching skillz are better than mine - i recall recently reading/hearing a study that showed the very opposite, but didn't find it in the 30 seconds i allowed myself to look for it Quote
