Yes, in the wake of the first debate between Mitt Romney and The SCOAMF, here’s an apropos photo commemorating the result:

Makes you wonder what were these people thinking, doesn’t it?

    She’s bowlegged, has a figure like a bowling pin, and a face like a backhoe.

    That said, if she were a decent human being, all of that would be overlooked.

    Michelle is bowlegged because she doesn’t like wearing heels. (I don’t blame her for that.)

    What’s more telling is that she’s showing that she doesn’t want to be here. Above the waist she looks very tense, like she wants to ball up her fists and knock Romney out.

    Obama’s just sort of standing there.

    She has no concept on how to stand like a lady with. Her legs are always far apart like a horse standing in a stall. Then there’s her arms that reach for the floor.

    Obama looks like he had the stuffing knocked outta him. They both look like a train hit them. And let’s not over look Romney’s expression here. He’s playing it down by not to appear to be gloating, but you know he had to ber thinking: “Holy shit. I just kicked this guy’s ass and it wasn’t all that hard.”

    the fix is IN!:

    Venezuelan polling stations began to close Sunday but some remained opened late as long lines of voters were still waiting to cast ballots in the presidential election, the electoral council said.

    “We must recall at the end of this election day that voters are still voting,” National Electoral Council president Tibisay Lucena told a news conference. “Voting stations will stay open as long as voters are in line.”

    It’s funny, me too. But then I got to thinking…it’s something fortunately that’s out of Fedgov’s control. The vote totals are accumulated by STATE, and the actual elections that night are for more than just federal positions. So any software manipulation concerns that I had, were assuaged -- a bit.

    Makes you wonder what were these people thinking, doesn’t it?

    He only imagined he was thinking. He was wrong though. His biggest problem is that he does not yet have a firm grasp of the obvious.

    Been busy with stuff I’d rather not be busy with. Fortunately peeps and admins here understood. I like being able to stop in and crap in the middle of the rec room hall and leave without anyone getting pissed. Mongoose did it for years and got away with it.

    No. The Obama administration is a horror more befitting one of H.P. Lovecraft’s tales of existential cosmic terror and strange cults that worship horrifying alien entities. Obama kind of fits with the character of Nyarlathotep, especially in his incarnation as the Black Pharoah.

    So, no work trips back to Venezuela for me anytime soon, then. Well, it would take years to unscrew PDVSA anyway, if it even can be unscrewed, which is doubtful. Chavez fired all their best people years ago and replaced them with Chavistas. They are scattered all over the oil industry world-wide now. I still keep in touch with some of them that I worked with back in 97.

    @ Guggi:
    I’ve seen reports that Romney is supposed to take on Islam with this speech. I’d much rather see that than calls for the US to, get involved in Syria. Syria is a mess. There really is no up side for us there, any more than there was in Libya.

    I don’t know about Rodan, but I think arming the rebels would be a huge mistake.

    Just because they may win in the end, support from us would most likely not translate into any benefit if the rebels do come to power. What benefit did we gain in egypt for example.

    Besides there is the same problem in syria as in libya, egypt, and all the other so-called arab spring revolutions. As odious as the current governments are, the rebels are very likely to be worse. In all of them I have read reports there is a mix of al’qada, muslim brotherhood, and other similar islamist groups.

    I know Romney wants to capitalize on obama’s many foreign policy failures, but supporting the rebels in syeia who will likely be worse enemies than asssad if they win is a approach that has me questioning Romney’s reasoning and objectivity when dealing with the muslim world.

    Does anyone know if this is the position Bolton takes on this issue? I can see Romney blowing any advantage he gained last week if he takes this position!

    There are no “good” vs. “bad” rebels. Syria is a mess and we all stood out (Europe and the U.S.A.)

    Bolton is Romney’s number 1 Foreign Policy adviser, so. I’d say Yes.


  121. 122 | October 8, 2012 8:52 am

    @ citizen_q:

    Rodan would DEFINITELY be excoriating Romney for taking this position. After Syria falls, Jordan and its Star Trek KIng will be next.
