Symmetry required it: 2012 american general election thread #2

What, like contributing money to republican campaigns?

note: flatscreen in hotel here was in breakfast area and switched off.

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

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

the quiznos/bar that unites all ilx

the chicken carbonara sandwich of peace

we should have a fap there, fly in, chill at the quiznos all day, fly out

The lady didn't get me when I asked for the special bbq sauce for my turkey sammich

No way I'm flying into Denver without seeing that satanic pony out front.

the 2012 Democratic National Convention in Charlotte

tryi8ng to keep track of these various threads

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.

"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"

It's like a cleanse but of deity

Just a little light Buddhism and some Hopi metaphysics

I guess I would just put the onus and the burden on them to explain why they did all this, these purges of God.”

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

*Walks into convention hall, looks around.* "Man, I've never seen a place so purged of God!"

love lag∞n too, lovin this thread right now

hugs

"Has that sweet rotten smell always been here, and we didn't notice until now?"

There sure is a lot of mention of government.

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

Democrats: "Elect us to run the government."

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

Elect to us to run that thing we all despise and want to drown in a bathtub.

I don't understand the "well, if Barack Obama does the drone rocketeering then it must be ok" line because other than categorically banning torture (by American soldiers and intelligence officers) I can't think of many ways in which Obama and Bush are any different in their prosecution of this war on evildoers.

I DIED, I died at that. can I share with pals?

drones are much cheaper than cruise missiles, which was the cleaner-presidential-hands, hey-we-only-killed-a-few-civilians weapon of choice from circa 1990 to 2008. it is not like drones are anything more than a tiny step along the road to remotely-dispensed death that began with the arquebus. those cruise missiles were about 3 million a pop, but Poppy Bush, Clinton, and Baby Bush all loved them.

I posted in the wrong thread but then there's been so many of them.

update: In Fargo airport, en route home via denver. Only two screens in this wing, one with HLN, one with tennis on espn. terminal is nice & quiet.

Also, These Purges of God is in way too readable a font. it needs that death metal wank scrawl.

xp:

it is not like drones are anything more than a tiny step along the road to remotely-dispensed death that began with the arquebus.

well yeah, and we did do this with Junkers, Lancasters, and Flying Fortresses before, but each step still seems a further remove from the psychological consequences of offing somebody, thus making it easier to order.

I DIED, I died at that. can I share with pals?

yeah sure, it's for the people

Ryan has told his hometown paper that he has climbed "close to 40" of the famous "Fourteeners" in Colorado -- the 54 peaks more than 14,000 feet high.
