So Paul Ryan's college girlfriend was/is hot, and better yet, wants nothing to do with him anymore.

This fuckin' guy.

1) that is a weird video
2) since the video was about working out and not about her blanking Ryan, I googled her to find the disavowal and discovered the internet is gleeful that she spent time in jail
3) ;_;

Rocker: (burning with rage at the audience) SHUT UP!! What are you looking at, you homo MEXICANS?? Any of you ever been bow hunting? I bow hunt! I love my FATHER! I love IRON EAGLE MOVIES! You all aint half the man my daddy is, Popeye John Rocker Senior!

Colin: John, what about your message for the new year?

Rocker: (to himself) Right. Stay focused, Rocker. Daddy's watching. Go hard, like WWF. (to audience) Okay, second, in the new millenium, I hope that we can all join together to track down that black baby that the Jews and the Pope had together and kill it before it can destroy the world.

"I started with rabbits, ducks and pheasant before getting into deer hunting. I worked mowing lawns when I was a kid to save money to buy a shotgun and bought a Browning BPS 20-gauge for pheasants," Ryan told the magazine. "I still have it." But "Shotgun Hunter" doesn't have the same ring to it (and "Deer Hunter" gets complicated).

"Shotgun Hunter" actually sounds pretty all right, as code-names go. Maybe doesn't roll off the tongue but it'd be a cool video game maybe? Or the name of an anime character. Rick "Shotgun" Hunter is a crackerjack mecha pilot...

Informal survey of always-on flatscreens at Denver airport:

At the bar attached to the Quiznos where I got a sandwich: Fox News, who are being extra-cunty and showing a rolling National Debt counter in the corner of their screen during their DNC pre-show coverage.

Everywhere else, at least in the United gates: Headline News, alternating between entertainment footage and DNC prep

Will report in again when I get to the hotel in Detroit Lakes tonight

Airport screens are where I'm always glad when somebody switches them to sports coverage.

Even boring-ass ballgames are infinitely better than the nonstop fucking CNN, whose self-promos made me want to throttle each and every network staffer.

Fiendish Doctor Wu (kingfish), Tuesday, 4 September 2012 21:32 (thirteen years ago)

i was at that quiznos in june.

I ate at that Quizno's at 8am Denver time last Thursday

No thread about that Quizno's? Surely some mistake.

the 2012 Democratic National Convention in Charlotte

tryi8ng to keep track of these various threads

curmudgeon, Wednesday, 5 September 2012 17:26 (thirteen years ago)

Gawwwd, is this guy stuck in his little right-wing nonsense-repeating bubble.

GOP vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan said President Barack Obama’s administration “purged” mentions of God from the Democratic Party platform Wednesday.

“I think it’s rather peculiar,” Ryan said on “Fox & Friends.” “It’s not in keeping with our founding documents, our founding vision. I’d guess you’d have to ask the Obama administration why they purged all this language from their platform. There sure is a lot of mention of government. I guess I would just put the onus and the burden on them to explain why they did all this, these purges of God.”

There are various detailed rebuttals of this meme online.

curmudgeon, Wednesday, 5 September 2012 17:39 (thirteen years ago)

"I think it's rather peculiar. It's not in keeping with our founding vision," Ryan, a noted Ayn Rand fan, said on "Fox & Friends."

I don't want a rebuttal, I want a political party that purges God from their platform.

I have never wanted to be good at photoshop as much as now so I could put "These Purges of God" where it presently says "Charlotte, North Carolina"

onus and burden? 'all this' cracks me up though.

Andrew Farrell, Wednesday, 5 September 2012 18:05 (thirteen years ago)

There sure is a lot of mention of government.

Most perplexing, considering this is a political convention of a party of government.

Ermahgerd Thomas (Dan Peterson), Wednesday, 5 September 2012 18:15 (thirteen years ago)

Democrats: "Elect us to run the government."

Republicans: "Elect us to run the... uh... you know, that thing with all the taxes and stuff."
