lol colbert

The idea that Lehman Brothers doesn't get any money and AIG does reminds me very much of ''Iran is a mortal enemy because they have not achieved a nuclear weapon. But North Korea is a country we can work with, because they have a nuclear weapon.'' The idea is, Get big or go home. How big can you fuck up? Can you fuck up so bad that you would ruin the world economy? If it's just 15,000 who are out of jobs, no. You have to actually be a global fuck-up to get any help.

given mccains taste in mockery, it'd be more "what is this coffee klatsch bullshit you media cunts are gabbing on about"

it's a Stranger feature, that Heart letter. The celebrities change every week.

Mackro Mackro, Thursday, 25 September 2008 20:40 (fifteen years ago) link

that said, Roger Fisher from Heart said he would donate his portion of the royalities of the RNC's use of "Barracuda" to the Obama campaign, acc. to snopes.

So are any Dem senators going to call McCain on his shit before 5 pm?

I think that looks like a weekly fake piece that The Stranger (free weekly Seattle paper) does.

You guys were being pretty funny until someone decided to bring Billy Joel into it.

i just noticed that john mccain does this thing when he's standing at a podium, like he goes up on his tippytoes every once in a while, like a little kid. it's actually kind of endearing.

little edie sedgwick (elmo argonaut), Thursday, 25 September 2008 20:56 (fifteen years ago) link

At least no one Photoshopped Billy Joel's head onto Doctor Casino's friend's body.

"I'm delighted that John is expressing himself on this issue," said Chris Dodd, chairman of the Senate Banking Committee. "I have heard form Obama numerous occasions these last couple days. I have never heard from John McCain on the issue... I'm just worried a little bit that sort of politicizing this problem, sort of flying in here, I'm beginning to think this is more of a rescue plan for John McCain and not a rescue plan for the economy."

wau The Stranger does HTML like me circa 2000

i am the small cat (HI DERE), Thursday, 25 September 2008 21:11 (fifteen years ago) link

so did his campaign actually suspend anything? doesn't look like it

little edie sedgwick (elmo argonaut), Thursday, 25 September 2008 21:15 (fifteen years ago) link

it suspended participating in the debate, which McCain is still refusing to appear at. So lame.

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 25 September 2008 21:16 (fifteen years ago) link

and the letterman thing, which worked out well

i'm a shop btw (jeff), Thursday, 25 September 2008 21:17 (fifteen years ago) link

Haley Barbour was still counting on it at least an hour or two ago.

Michael White, Thursday, 25 September 2008 21:17 (fifteen years ago) link

i'm even more convinced now that this 'suspension' was a play to keep any further davis/freddie/fannie stories below the fold, and it's working

little edie sedgwick (elmo argonaut), Thursday, 25 September 2008 21:20 (fifteen years ago) link

that won't work indefinitely. anybody smart will sit on the story until after the bailout package passes and then its on.

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 25 September 2008 21:21 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm more convinced than ever that Matt Millen was fired from the Lions so he could spend more time working for the RNC and helping out McCain/Palin.

El Tomboto, Thursday, 25 September 2008 21:21 (fifteen years ago) link

I mean if there was any question as to whether John Boy has any fucking clue at all what he's doing in this race it's been pretty decisively illustrated that hell no
