Senator John "5 years in a bamboo cage drinking my own urine" McCain pledges to add an anti-torture rider to every single bill in the US Senate until one of them passes.

Quoth Bush: We don't torture people - but we need to be allowed to torture people, because this is a war on Terra. And torture is a weapon in that war, and we need all our weapons to conquer Terra. And torture is only done by a few bad apples in that one prison, or maybe in two prisons, or maybe in all the prisons, but it's a few bad privates and not ordered from above even though it's happening everywhere to all prisoners in all kinds of secret prisons where he hide prisoners from the Red Cross. And that's good thing, because we have a war, a war on Terra.

John McCain for President?

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

He ran in 2000. Rove smeared him senseless in the southern states by hiring phone pollsters to ask things like "Would you still support McCain if you knew he had an illegitimate child with a black woman?" - which, of course, he doesn't. The question is a hypothetical, hence legal, but that's why they call it a "push-poll".

McCain's got his own insanities, but he's a fiscal conservative, pro-life in the Clinton sense ("Abortion should be safe, legal, and rare"), and honest.

This means he'll *never* get a Republican nomination.

I'm questioning the validity of hypothetical questions in political polling; it might be legal, but that doesn't make it ethical.

Maybe he'll wise up and ditch the Republican party, taking a Vice Presidential position under a Democrat. Of course, that might not be politically possible, considering the stupidity of many people, but he'd probably make a great Secretary of Defense or Homeland Security (and, the thought just struck me, how "homeland security" falls directly under the duties of the Department of Defense), or even a National Security Advisor.

Okay, you saw where he said "Rove," right?

It's not even the first time Rove went after somebody who had a nightmarish experience in Vietnam.

I know Rove is slime. You know Rove is slime. The American people know Rove is slime!

In a sane world, children would spit on him and throw things at him while he walked down the street or drove past in his car.

Like the, what, triple-amputee Vietnam war vet who was placed by ads in the same company as Saddam Hussein?

The same thing could be said of Wesley Clark, only he ran as a Democrat.

If he could actually win the GOP nomination, i would most likely vote for him. IF

I'm twisted. Since the only difference between the Democrats and Republicans is that Democrats are center-left to center-right and Republicans are center-right to batshit-crazy-right, and McCain is center right ... I'd like to see him become a Democrat ... or the most unthinkable of unthinkabilities, a bipartian pair: McCain & Clark, with testicles and the campaign money to say, every time they get called "unpatriotic" or some other such retarded shit, "JOHN WAS A POW WHO STAYED CAPTIVE INSTEAD OF BE DISLOYAL TO HIS MEN!"

Two words:

Manchurian
Candidate.

The freepers are already jacking off over that one every time McCain says "Maybe murder is wrong".

[ryusen.livejournal.com]

I would have liked to see a bi-partisan ticket too, but i don't think he needed to switch parties. The GOP is no worse or better than the DNC, once they stop paying lip service to the extreme right.

Dude, Bush should look out. Deathstroke is going to be pissed when he sees what they've been saying about his girl.

i saw a really cute thing friday on cnn
the mayor of las vegas thinks cutting off graphiti artists thumbs is a good idea.
it's so adorable!</a< (http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/11/04/mayor.thumbs.ap/index.html)

Maiming for life, for graffiti? Not practical. Just take away their mommy's credit cards, dress them in adult clothes, and make them clean up their fucking vandalism. Wash the wall, bitch, until all the "tags" are gone. Some of them aren't yours? Too bad, you shouldn't have been part of the problem.

and he suggested this on national television! people are strange.

Television loves a good soundbite. Bonus points if the person giving it is off his nut.

Goodman has this habit of shooting his mouth off before thinking. I do believe amputation falls under "cruel or unusual punishments." Las Vegans laugh, realize it'll never happen, and keep re-electing him because he amuses them.

[broken-pistol.livejournal.com]

i do believe you are correct
:P

So, it's basically just another part of the whole Vegas experience?

[broken-pistol.livejournal.com]

what happens in vegas, stays in vegas... even your thumbs!

Come on! Just because the president and vice president are demanding to be allowed to violate international law is no reason to . . . umm . . . what was I saying again?
