o Marlene: "I'm sorry, Jerry. I just don't think this is going to work. . . . I guess things changed for me on Tuesday night." Jerry: "Tuesday night? What happened Tuesday night?" Marlene: "I saw your act. . . . To be honest, it just didn't make it for me. It's just so much fluff." Jerry: "I can't believe this. So what are you saying? You didn't like my act, so that's it?" Marlene: "I can't be with someone if I don't respect what they do." Jerry: "You're a cashier!"--dialogue from "The Ex-Girlfriend," originally aired Jan. 23, 1991 o "One candidate says you should vote for me because I've not been involved at all in the struggles of the past and therefore we need to turn over a new leaf and [try] something absolutely new. And if you want the feeling of change, then that is the person you should support. The other candidate says vote for me because I SPENT A LIFETIME MAKING CHANGE, raising hopes and fulfilling dreams for other people."--Bill Clinton, Jan. 15, 2008

It's a stupid parallel, you fucking twit. Nobody but someone obsessed with hating the Clintons could make such an absurd connections. And it was tedious to read, you drooling, obsessive fuckface.

How often do you get that mouth of yours fucked?

Not enough, evidently.

...and meanwhile, Teflon John McCain happily cruises along-- untouched and under-scrutinized by corporate media.

Here's the funny part:

The same news media that imbeciles like the OP will tell you is "liberal" is working overtime putting out negative stories about Clinton and Obama.

Silly boy. The liberal media was too busy making sure Obama won the Democrat nomination to smear McCain. Remember: The liberal media ALWAYS support the Democrat. Care to make a wager on that truism?

It is simply breathtaking to watch the glee and abandon with which the liberal media and the Angry Left have been attempting to turn our military victory in Iraq into a second Vietnam quagmire. Too bad for them, it's failing.

You have a small mind, so I would rather elucidate than take your money.

Obama is not a liberal, Mr. Brainwashed-by-the-media-you-think-is- liberal. You just lost your own argument without me saying a word. Obama is status quo. You get confused, I guess, because he's African- American- so you assume (again- you have a small mind) he's some kind of "radical leftie".

The real liberals or free-thinkers - people against the status quo who want to actually change things- were factored out of the process months ago with the help of corporate conservative media (CNN, Fox, CBS, NBC- you name it).

Dennis Kucinich, Mike Gravel, Richardson and Ron Paul (a Republican!) were are slapped by every media pundit and debate monitor (including Tim Russert) from Day 1. They were all ignored or "kookified" by the corporate media. Because they represent real change and revolution. Yes- it's true, even the Republican, Ron Paul, is included in this group.

Ask your mom who Ron Paul or Dennis Kucinich is. She won't know. Joe Public only gets exposed to the status quo candidates and they become household names- like Monica Lewinsky (by the way- can you name GHW Bush's mistress? Of course not. See how that works?). The three candidates that were left standing (and now two) are approved by The Ruling Class, The Rich, Corporate America-- the status quo.

Obama would never have been allowed to get this far if he were anything different. The "Change" he wants is all smoke and mirrors and lacks substance. Listen to the man speak- it's all BS. Now go to Youtube and listen to Ron Paul talk about The Fed or military spending. The truth scares the ruling class. That's why Paul and Kucinich were ignored and/or tagged with "kook" by the media.

You have been so brainwashed by the media telling you that it is "liberal" that you actually believe it. All of these right wingers on TV and radio would not have jobs if corporate media had a leftist agenda.

...whew...

One only has to look at his voting record to know Obama's a liberal.

Now now, getting defensive about not "getting it" only makes you look worse.

That's pretty funny, coming from someone obessed with an irrational hatred of George Bush. It's called "projection". Look it up sometime.
