        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;did they get elected just to become targets of the xenophobic MSM?&lt;/blockquote&gt;
As you should well know, Paterson didn't get elected in the first place. He succeeded our kinky friend Spitzer upon the latter's resignation.

I'm going to bed ... I'll look into this racism nonsense over the weekend. But suffice it to say Paterson is an odd bird. Let's face it, practically the day after he took over Spitzer's job, he told everyone he'd done drugs. LOL ... he's off the wall to begin with.</content>

        <content>Elric ... reading is fundamental. You quote me as saying "In fact it's funny" but you don't bother to quote me fully:
&lt;blockquote&gt;In fact, it’s funny, there have been rumors that “Joe” and “Gorilla” are one and the same. If only there could be a rumor that Curator and I are one and the same. I’d be so honored!&lt;/blockquote&gt;
I wasn't saying accusing someone of being a racist is funny. But then we've learned you are a major fan of out of context quotes.</content>

        <content>Ok Elric ... dar al-islam: countries where people may freely practice Islam.

Dar al-harb (appears to be correct spelling although I found dar al-haub in some places): neighboring non-Muslim countries with whom Muslim countries have no treaties.

You left out dar al-kufr which appears to be from what I can see, close to Muslim but not close enough to matter. (Another source I looked at basically made dar al-kufr synonymous with dar al-harb.)

And now that I've googled it, I ask you ... so what?</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;As far as you believing Boxer "bedable", I believe she would be old enough to be classified GILF &lt;/blockquote&gt; Now Tex, everything is relative. At my age she's a MILF. For Sensico's generation she's a GILF. Of course, this means for Sensico's generation I'm a FILF. Ick, don't that sound "filfy"? :-D</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;Now try actually quote me on something; especially "negrophobic" :-)&lt;/blockquote&gt;
In Elric's defense, and lawd knows he needs one, I can't say I've ever seen him say anything "negrophobic". Now maybe it just got lost in the xenophobic, islamophobic mix but it zipped right past me. ;-)

With that said, I live for those few moments when Curator stops by to drop a liberal atomic bomb. Always makes my day. In fact, it's funny, there have been rumors that "Joe" and "Gorilla" are one and the same. If only there could be a rumor that Curator and I are one and the same. I'd be so honored! :-D</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;If President Obama supported the Scots, like some on the left are, would I be seeing this blog?&lt;/blockquote&gt; Damn right you'd still be seeing it. Of course, Obama condemned the release but even if he hadn't, my opinion would have been no different.

Who on the left are supporting this release? Just curious.

And to your question and that of Elric ... I don't think the main story here is about the pathology of Libya. It's about a very strange event that may be the start of a trend in misplaced compassion.

Now unfortunately &lt;b&gt;after&lt;/b&gt; I wrote the piece, I discovered that Libya is 97% Muslim so now I can't hold Elric to my one anti-Islam post per article rule.

So the debate begins anew. I have not focused on Libya's reaction and I will do more research on it, but could it simply be that many Libyans think Megrahi was unjustly convicted? While I accept the Scottish jury's verdict, Megrahi has always claimed his innocence.</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;And I find it hard to believe that even you Rutherford could like some pompous ass like Barbara Boxer.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
So, it's Boxer's fault that CA has fallen on hard times? Conveniently ignoring the Republican Governator I see. :-)

Putting aside the fact that I don't find her the least bit offensive, I might also add that for a woman who will be 69 years old this November she is incredibly well preserved. While I hate to come off like a sexist pig, she is definitely my favorite MILF of the Senate! :-)</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;Since the facts don't work, Obama is now looking towards God to justify his Obamacare plan. Tell me R, doesn't this bother you just a little bit?&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Not sure what specific article or incident you're referring to but one of the things I like least about Obama is how much he looks to God for a good number of things.

I'm just waiting for the day that an American President has the balls to say "I don't go to church and I don't believe in any of that stuff." I doubt it will happen in my lifetime. Funny how we got a black president and will probably get a female one and a gay one before we get an atheist one.</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;I highly doubt I ever get a pass because I'm black :P&lt;/blockquote&gt;

LOL on that note ... from the only fuzzy picture I've seen of Sensico, I wasn't sure she &lt;b&gt;was&lt;/b&gt; black so I've certainly done no bonding on that score .... and as you well know, many folks don't know I'm black especially after seeing my picture. So the whole racial identification thang is pretty well broken where I'm concerned.</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;Conservative battle it out.&lt;/blockquote&gt; Rabbit, you almost had me until you dropped that stinkbomb.

Washington conservatives are the most "unite without debate" crew around. The very problem that the Democrats have is they can't get out of each others way for all the in-fighting and debating. Conservatives, for the most part, eschew intellectualism and this is good for them. They decide what they want or do not want and they line up and get it done. Liberals think too damn much.

As for Sensico, if you look through the last few threads, you'll see that I don't agree with everything she says and I've said so. I don't flame her and maybe that's why my few disagreements with her fly under the radar. If you go back to the Chamber, you'll find a huge lecture I gave her about making pronouncements about adults who've had it rough when she is still young and might not appreciate some adult realities.

But bottom line, it takes some guts for anyone to come in here and fight the good fight, no matter which "side" you're on. Not a single one of us (including me) (with the exception perhaps of Wickle) has not been downright brutal at times. If she comes in, takes her lumps and keeps on swinging, more power to her! (And please identify when I've ever told any of you guys to lay off her. If she plays with the big boys, she gets what the big boys dish out.)</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;"Simplistic" is right....&lt;/blockquote&gt;
You've written a long and heroic defense of your 2nd amendment rights, BiW. 

First, this is not 1776. I understand the genesis of the 2nd amendment and don't you think, health care be damned, that it's a bit premature to take up arms against the government? Is it really that bad?

Second, if I understand my law properly, you cannot shoot an intruder in your home unless he demonstrates that he is going to use lethal force against you. You certainly cannot shoot him as he is running out of your house with your stereo. Try it sometime and see how fast the cops arrest &lt;b&gt;your&lt;/b&gt; ass. This ain't primetime TV. I don't have the stats handy but there is a high incidence of folks with your delusions of defense of self and property who only wind up wounding themselves and loved ones accidentally. If I'm not mistaken, NYC threw Bernie Goetz's ass in prison for "defending himself" on a subway some 30 years ago.

Third, as I said before, you have the "right" to go to church on a pogo stick. It doesn't mean you're going to do it. There is no sensible reason to bring a gun to a political rally, particularly outside a venue where the President is speaking. I'd have to go do the research but I'd bet dollars to donuts not a single one of our American assassins or would be assassins (e.g. Hinckley) was carrying his fire arm illegally ... i.e. they had permits to carry. When a bunch of folks in a crowd outside a presidential appearance are armed, how are we to tell who is potentially dangerous? Sorry BiW, it's bad form to come to a protest rally packin' heat.</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;And I can see why Dodger LOVES PMSNBC, talk about shady deception&lt;/blockquote&gt; Elric, the racism remark by Dylan Rattigan at the end of your clip was gratuitous, if not somewhat true. 

However, for someone who does not subscribe to cable, perhaps you should not run off at the mouth so much about MSNBC. I watch it a lot and the black man with the semi-automatic was shown in many clips. In fact, someone shared an anecdote about a man in the crowd with a semi-automatic and another man saying "oh yeah the black guy" and the response was "no the man I saw was white" to which the closing response was "there were TWO guys with semi-automatics? You're kidding!"

So sorry Elric, there was no attempt made by MSNBC to hide that one of the armed guys was black.</content>

        <content>BiW, let me give you the real simplistic view on this:

There are only two reasons to own a gun.

1. Recreation (hunting, target practice, skeet shooting, etc.)
2. Shoot other people

Now you will of course bring up "self defense" but that implies you are defending yourself from someone else with a gun who plans to shoot you with it which brings us back to reason #2. 

We used to have a society where everyone carried their sidearm. It was called the Wild West. It was called wild for a reason. I prefer living in a civilized society.

This may no longer be the case but the last time I checked, British cops didn't carry guns. They carried night sticks.

Regardless, I'm ok with cops carrying guns to defend me from the loonies who have them and should not have them.

Oh ... by the way BiW, could you possibly explain what I need with an AK-47 (or AK-15 or whatever) at a public event? Ahhh don't bother ,,,, I know the answer, you need it to kill the ten guys who came with regular pistols to shoot at you.</content>

LOL Gorilla, you know and I know that Rush is a bombastic circus clown. Get real.

I've watched Michael Smerconish and the man is a conservative. He's a smart conservative who &lt;b&gt;listens&lt;/b&gt; and is more interested in meaningful debate than ratings.</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;Seriously Rutherford, you can't lambaste Elric if your going to let this uninformed idiot spew her garbage.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Actually, I find the entire exchange between you and Sensico a bit confusing since I thought your original assault was aimed at the YouTube vids that I had posted last night. I thought your fight was with me, not her. 

I think I need more sleep ... I can't tell which end is up on my own damn blog.</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;People need to remember that just because you’re allowed to carry gun doesn’t mean you cant pop-off and go crazy.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Sensico, exactly. This is the very dumbass theme repeated by gun advocates .... it's legal for me to carry my fire-arm. Well, as one pundit said the other day, it's legal to ride your pogo stick into church. But you &lt;b&gt;don't do it&lt;/b&gt;!! 

This greatly complicates the job of the Secret Service and I particularly love how bonehead Velleco says that folks who carry their fire arm in the open are clearly not dangerous.

But brace yourself Sensico because any minute now, the conservative block of the RL Blog will tell us what fascists we are. Don't forget, you've got to have your gun handy to protect you from the big bad American government  that wants to kill your retarded baby and your grandma.</content>

        <content>This is the third of three comments that I didn't think rose to the level of a new blog post, but that I needed to get off my chest anyway. The first two were about guys demanding their right to carry large penises ... oh sorry ... big guns to public events.

This one has been a long time in the making. Last week, I watched Lawrence O'Donnell interview Katy Abram, a good old fashioned politically naive innocent from Pennsylvania who begged Arlen Specter to restore the Constitution of the United States and not turn us into Russia. (Video posted at end of this comment). 

Lawrence treated her with kid gloves relatively. For starters it's funny that Katy wants what the framers of the Constitution wanted ... since they didn't want her to vote. :-) But then things got more interesting. O'Donnell asked her about her income because unless her family is making more than $250K, she really doesn't have anything to worry about from a taxation perspective. Mmmmm, Katy doesn't know her family income because her husband takes care of the bills "he takes care of us and that's all that matters". OK, so now I figure she DOES like the old days when she couldn't vote.

But then, little Miss I'm-Just-a-Happy-Dumb-Housewife drops an interesting bomb. For someone who knows nothing about the family finances, she seems pretty damn sure she has a $5,000 deductible on her health insurance policy. Mmmm, pretty damn selective about which financial stuff she keeps track of. My bullshit meter went off big time ... sirens blaring all over the place. And then ....

Lo and behold "the sleeping giant" within Katy turned out not to be sleeping at all. She's a friggin Glenn Beck disciple who runs her own chapter of his off the wall "9-12" organization (which I wrote about &lt;a href="http://rutherfordl.wordpress.com/2009/04/09/its-my-tea-party-and-ill-cry-if-i-want-to/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; a few months ago). So, innocent, naive Katy is busted. I smelled a rat during Hardball but I just didn't know how bad the stink would be.

More &lt;a href="http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2009/8/13/766517/-Katy-Abram-is-a-9-12-Organizer"&gt;here.&lt;/a&gt;

And here is her illustrious performance on Hardball.

        <content>Putz #2 (actually Putz #1 since he appeared the day before dumbass Velleco) is Alan Gottlieb, founder of the Second Amendment Foundation.

Now you tell me with a straight face that this guy didn't get pelted during dodgeball in the fifth grade, and didn't get wedgies in high school from the school bully. I swear these guys need to give up the second amendment and go buy some Viagra. They'd feel a whole lot better! 

(Best part .... this ignoramus argues the point with a man whose father was President of the United States and very nearly died from an assassination attempt. Dumbass.)

        <content>Could someone explain to me why the folks who advocate for gun owners all seem to be roly-poly small dicked guys who probably had the crap beat out of them in high school?

Case in point, one John Velleco of Gun Owners of America. This putz thinks there is no reason why everyone shouldn't be allowed to enter a town hall meeting with the President, packing heat. And we ain't just talking your ordinary pistol either. We're talking semi-automatics. Fortunately there are folks like Chris Matthews who let this assh*le talk himself into the ground.

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;Soetoro was involved at least until Obama's mother died, when Obama's grandparents stepped in.&lt;/blockquote&gt; Holy cow. I was willing to give Jackson the benefit of the doubt with that first excerpt you snipped Elric. But damn, the dude repeats the same dumb ass mistake later in his article. He doesn't bother to do even the most basic research.

Guess that's why he  writes for American Thinker. LOL ...American &lt;b&gt;Thinker&lt;/b&gt; .. talk about irony! :-)

P.S. &lt;a href="http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1729524-7,00.html"&gt;Obama's mother died on Nov. 7, 1995, at 52.&lt;/a&gt; Obama was 34 years old at the time.</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;What he did do was fail to answer a constituent's question by hiding behind mocking condescension.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
BiW, that he did ... that he did indeed. The constituent might as well have asked him, "when the little men from Venus land here next year, will they be covered under Obama's plan?" That is just how preposterous her question was. And to have the unmitigated stupidity to ask a Jew if he supports a Nazi-like policy goes beyond the pale.

It's time that imbeciles were called out publicly as imbeciles. If you are going to have balls to stand up in public and talk nonsense, then you need to be prepared for someone to tell you in public (and on viral YouTube) that you are talking nonsense. This particular woman makes "Katie" from the Arlen Specter town hall look like Einstein.</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;Rutherford, can you explain to me where in the Constitution Congress is given the authority to legislate their healthcare coup?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

BiW, please don't go all constitutional on me. I'm no constitutional scholar but I'd wager the constitution gives wide latitude for the government to protect the well-being of its people. When multitudes don't have health care, that falls under protecting the well being of the citizenry.</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;Is he your hero too?&lt;/blockquote&gt; Massa presents an interesting dilemma. Does a representative reflect the will of his constituents if that will goes against his conscience? This can be a tough call, I think.

Good thing about America is, if they don't like his voting record, they can kick him out come next election.</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;Howard Dean Reveals BO’s Plan To Deceive The Public&lt;/blockquote&gt; HUH? Dean is saying the way to get the public option in is through the reconciliation procedure which needs only 51 votes in the Senate. What does that have to do with Obama deceiving anybody? Obama's preference is a bipartisan solution. Dean thinks that is not possible.</content>

On a serious note, isn't it interesting that folks self identify as conservative but not as Republican? I'm not really surprised by these poll results. I think if you look at our sexual repression alone, it's a sign the country is mostly conservative.</content>

Liar&lt;/blockquote&gt;
LOL Elric, sometimes your thickness defies description. Not a single person in that video talked about socializing&lt;b&gt;health care&lt;/b&gt;. Again, read this slowly so it gets through, single payer is about the financials, not about the delivery mechanism. The government will not be running hospitals. Doctors will not be employed by the government. Health care is what doctors and hospitals do. Insurance companies are not in the health care business.

And by the way, I heard someone say this a day or so ago and I got a kick out of it. On a person-by-person basis we already have a single payer system. You've got one insurance company handling your health care reimbursements, correct? That's single payer. ;-)</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;We had a 26 year bull market, record sustained low unemployment and inflation, and the biggest creation of real net worth in the history of the world. The fact that everybody, including most slackers from the left, weren’t included and in fact probably did get poorer, is a testament not to the failure of supply side economics but personal failure on behalf of those left behind.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Easy cop out Tex. Where was the net worth created? The only reason the poor got poorer was that they were lazy? How can you deny that if the wealth does not trickle down, then trickle down economics is at the very least a misnomer, if not an outright lie,</content>

        <content>&lt;blockquote&gt;You dismiss advancements in technology that have improved our life outright. The free market gave my buddy 15/15 vision.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
I can't speak for Curator but my next post (on Anthony Weiner) handles this head on. Rabbit, don't confuse the delivery of health care with the financials. No one is saying to take health care itself out of free market capitalism. The &lt;b&gt;insurance&lt;/b&gt; industry is another story entirely.

I'm with you 100%. In its ideal form, capitalism breeds competition which in turn breeds quality, break through thinking, etc. etc.</content>
