response #43 by
Taxmyth:
Why the new light bulb?What happened to the other one? Are these energy efficient bulbs? Who was in the room when the light bulb blew out? Who else? What were they doing? Did what they were doing have anything to do with the light bulb burning out? How many light bulbs are in the room? Is there enough light without that one bulb to function efficiently or did the bulb have to be changed for safety reasons? How much did the bulb cost?
Was the bidding process fair for these bulbs? What can we do to keep these bulbs burning longer? Who authorized the changing of the light bulb? Was the chain of command properly followed?
Sorry, I wanted to see how the traditional media would react to this.
response #44 by
jgraz:
Let's see here...A: None -- they never thought they'd have to change lightbulbs after February 5th
A: None -- They just blame the media for the darkness.
A: Three -- One to call the bulb a muslim, another to publish a photo where the bulb looks even darker and a third to endorse the old, broken bulb over the shiny new one. (note that it's still dark when they're done)
A: Three -- one breaks the new bulb, the other eats the old one and the third sticks his finger in the socket. Hillary pays them all 12 million dollars.
A: Is it in a caucus state? Then let the fuckers light a candle.

GDP, March 8, 2008: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x4962794 OP by Ichingcarpenter: Top 10 reasons Clinton/Obama ticket would never work10. Obama has trouble giving speeches with knives in his back.
9. Combined slogan would be “Change we can believe in because it’s change, did I mention change?”
8. Bill would keep asking why Obama Girl’s not on White House staff.
7. Would mean endless radio play of smarmy Paul McCartney/Stevie Wonder ditty “Ebony and Ivory.”
6. At Cleveland debate, Hillary only offered Obama “pillow” when he actually wanted La-Z-Boy recliner.
5. Oprah says there’s only room for one woman with a single name.
4. Americans can’t decide which middle name they find more objectionable - Hussein or Rodham.
3. His good looks, her brains - together they make Mitt Romney.
2. Media can’t decide who to suck up to more
1. One word: Obamary
GDP, March 8, 2008: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x4970641 OP by Ichingcarpenter: Top 10 reasons McCain/Romney ticket wouldn’t work10. McCain never tires of making “take my wives, please” jokes
9. Romney will be vice president only if his hair can be Speaker of the House
8. McCain endorsement of Romney as VP: “He’s a good partner, in a creepy sort of way.”
7. Romney is not sufficiently female or black, yet
6. McCain secretly hates guys whose haircuts cost more than his suit.
5. Mitt’s landscapers were stolen from McCain immigration “policy team”
4. Tagg and Josh keep calling McCain “Grandpa”
3. Constant comparisons between the vice presidency and the Silver Medal
2. McCain is anti-corporate America, Romney is pro-universal health coverage - together they’re Hillary Clinton
1. Current vice president won’t give up office without a gunfight
response #2 by
seasat:
I like yours and will add 10 more10. McCain would keep yelling at Romney to get off his front lawn.
9. When McCain was told Romney is a Mormon, he shouted, "I've had to deal Bush, that is one Moron too many."
8. Romney doesn't know the tune to "Bomb Iran".
7. Combining that many flip-flops just results in a flop.
6. Romney won't share his special underwear.
5. Combining 100 years in Iraq with a double Guantanamo would result in 200 years of bad luck.
4. Romney's hair would strangle both of them while they slept then run as an independent with Ron Paul.
3. When you combine old and plastic the thing just falls apart.
2. The Mac and Mitt slogan is already taken by Kraft for their new macaroni and cheese in a glove product.
1. The combined hypocrisy of the two would collapse in on itself forming a black hole that would shallow the universe.
I love Repug bashing threads. They help keep us focused on the real problems not the minor differences between our two candidates.
GD, March 8, 2008: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x2976351 OP by bvar22: Olbermann is DEAD to me now!I used to really respect Keith, and watched his show regularly.
He was intelligent and entertaining. He provided a anti-establishment perspective I could not find anywhere else on TV.
But over the last couple of months, his TRUE self has been revealed....
Olbermann is a sexist Hillary Hater.He kept his
Hillary Hatred and Sexism hidden for years just so he could attack Hillary!!!!
He keeps going ON and ON about the
mathematical impossibility of Hillary winning the nomination (like anyone cares about MATH), and says Hillary is just hurting the Democratic Party by attacking the inevitable nominee.
Richard Wolf and Dana Millbank?.....ALL sexist Hillary Haters!!!I used to think they were smart, but now it is clear that they are just stupid sexists!
Just because Hillary got a little confused about NAFTA is NO REASON to criticize her or laugh about her!
I now REFUSE to watch
Countdown and am writing the bosses at MSNBC demanding that it taken OFF the AIR.
Also DEAD to me NOW:
*Randi Rhodes...DEAD to me NOW.I used to like her outspoken, irreverent commentary and the way she handled Freepers.
She used to be a REAL Democrat and helped the Democratic Party always....but she too has turned into a
sexist Hillary Hater. Just because Obama WILL go to the convention with the MAJORITY of pledged
delegates, she thinks it is OK to criticize Hillary for supporting the Republican candidate!!!!
Ed Schultz....DEAD to me now.I used to really like Ed Schultz. He was a moderate, "Centrist" Democrat who seemed to be about pulling the Party together.....but he is really just a
sexist NeoCon operative who was planted years ago so that he could stop Hillary from getting the Presidency she deserves!
Rachael Maddow....DEAD to me now.It was really disappointing to find out that Rachael was really just another
sexist Hillary Hater. She seemed so intelligent and strong willed..... You would think that Rachael would support the
First Woman President...but NO... her obvious anti-Hillary sexist bigotry has floated to the top. She was really clever and initially showed a phony pro-Hillary bias. She's
another one who keeps insisting on doing the Math!
Thom Hartmann....is DEAD to me now.I cannot listen to someone who spews vile
sexist Hillary Hatred. He thinks HISTORY and FACTS matter, and that it is NOT a good thing to endorse the Republican nominee!
STFU Thom Hartmann!
Stephanie Miller....is dead to me now!ANOTHER turncoat female who obviously has "ISSUES".
The PROOF that she has issues is that she has criticized Hillary for hurting the Democratic Party and cannot see the blinding TRUTH that DEAN is a MONSTER and should change the rules so that Hillary can have the delegates that SHE IS ENTITLED TO!
NO MORE Stephanie Miller for ME!
Some Democrats I used to really like have exposed themselves to be Right Wing
sexist Republican Operatives. I NO LONGER have ANY respect for:
*Ted Kennedy
*John Kerry :puke:
*Russ Feingold (bigoted Hillary Hater)
*Tom Daschle
*Dennis Kucinich
I WILL listen ONLY to Rush Limbaugh!Rush Limbaugh has showed that he is open minded.
I used to think that Rush was a
sexist and a bigot, but I NOW see that I was wrong.
He had Bill Clinton <swoon> on his show to campaign for Hillary last week. Rush has also been telling everyone to
Vote for Hillary in the Primaries.
I NOW like Rush Limbaugh, and will be listening to his show daily to get the REAL truth!
Hillary has also said that FOX News is good, and is willing to appear on Fox News, so they must be OK too.
Go Hillary!!!!
Hillary CAN still WIN
if nobody counts the delegates!There are so many great responses to this post that I don't want to single out one over another. Of course, the funniest were the ones who took the OP at face value.

They're all pathetically gonna plead poverty, ignorance, or good intentions while desperately trying to distance themselves from the shit THEY shat out of their own back-ends. Especially this feith schmuck. I'm not a bit surprised, except I figured the likes of him would wait til after bush is out of office and no longer in any position of power and authority to hurt him. He's only interested in trying to sell America on the idea that he's a complete innocent in all this. I hope everyone else regards him with as much credibility as WE do here in DU.
Hopefully he can tell all his cutesy little sob stories to the nice understanding folks at The Hague.

The Lounge, March 10, 2008: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x7553519 OP excerpt by EarlG: The Top 10 Conservative Idiots, No 328: 9) Steve KingWhile we're on the subject of idiot Republicans saying some of the most wrongheaded, ignorant shit you can possibly imagine, try this one on for size:
An Iowa Republican congressman said Friday that terrorists would be "dancing in the streets" if Democratic candidate Barack Obama were to win the presidency.
Rep. Steve King based his prediction on Obama's pledge to pull troops out of Iraq, his Kenyan heritage and his middle name, Hussein.
"The radical Islamists, the al-Qaida ... would be dancing in the streets in greater numbers than they did on Sept. 11 because they would declare victory in this war on terror," King said in an interview with the Daily Reporter in Spencer.You heard him right - electing Barack Obama would be worse than 9/11.
King said his comments were not meant to demean Obama but to warn how an Obama presidency would look to the world.
"His middle name does matter," King said. "It matters because they read a meaning into that."Honestly, I'm not even sure how to untangle this giant ball of stupid.
Perhaps I could say that Hussein is one of the most common names in the world, and "the al-Qaida" weren't exactly fans of Saddam Hussein anyway. In fact, even suggesting that "the al-Qaida" would be cheering for someone called "Hussein" is just a rehash of that old "let's tie Iraq to 9/11" bullshit that's been discredited time and again over the past five years.
Nah, that's far too logical and reasonable.
Perhaps I could suggest that Steve King's last name appears to be an homage to monarchy, the most un-American form of government imaginable, and that his tenure in Congress is undermining the Constitution.
Hmm, that's a bit more unhinged.
Alternatively, I could note that based on his last name, Steve King is clearly in cahoots with King Mohammed VI of Morocco, not to mention King Herod, King Crimson, Don King, King Kong, The King Of Queens, Larry King, Burger King, and "The King Of Pop" Michael Jackson.
Yes, that sounds sufficiently stupid.
But you know what? I think I shall settle for calling Rep. King a dumb motherfucker and leave it at that. Oh, and I shall also look forward to John McCain denouncing and rejecting Rep. King, presumably in the next day or two. Something tells me that Sen. McCain is going to have a lot of denouncing and rejecting to do over the next few months.

Nope. This time, when the US economy collapses, it will STAY collapsed. Permanently. America will be nothing more than an interesting tourist destination for people from other countries who would like to see Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, and the Ruins of New York City. And American citizens will be standing on the streets hawking postcards, or pimping their sisters to the tourists.

Horton Hears a Who, offers the recurring theme of little folks having “as much right to live as bigger folks do!” With speculation running rampant that the upcoming Seuss movie - by the same title - will become a mantra for pro-life advocates, its time to mention the strongly liberal leanings of Theodore Geisel (aka Dr. Seuss.) Whether Geisel would appreciate the far right’s interpretation of his work is debatable. I humbly offer a parody of his fine piece, which expresses another perspective.
On the thirteenth of March, in the bedroom of Roy,
In the heat of passion, with her toy of a boy,
She was thrashing…enjoying hot sexual bump…
When Paris the wealthy girl felt a small lump!
So Hilton stopped thrashing. She looked toward her gut.
“That’s scary,” thought Paris, and she ended the rut.
Then she felt it again, as she thought of her dad.
She had to do something. Dad would be very mad!
“I’ll fix it,” said Hilton. “But who’s is it? Why?”
She cried and she cried. Then, she looked to the sky…
As the small speck of flesh - grew fast - like her cry.
“I‘ll pray,” pondered Paris, “then get an abortion.”
She hoped there was time to remove the small portion.
She was glad Republicans lied on that issue…
while debating the merits of stem-cell tissue.
They’d hired a preacher, to sell lies to voters,
and stolen elections, using swift-boaters.
Rich Republicans where raking in dough.
They’d looted the treasury: No one would know.
If they are pro-life, then why start such long wars…
for a god named Exxon that fuels the cars?
So, gently, and using the greatest of tact,
Paris called a doctor, to deliver the fact…
that she had insurance, unlike many millions.
And, like other elite, the war brought her trillions!
“Cash!” croaked the crony. Twas rich Doctor Killdare.
He’d bribed Republicans to stop Hilly’s Health-care.
He gave his big-bucks to a crook named McCain…
who said, war for “a hundred years” ain’t insane!
“Help me,” said Hilton. “We rob the same masses…
and pay politicians to sit on their asses.”
I know some say there is a person down there.
But with millions dead in Iraq, why should we care?
Quite likely…
…family values, no Hilton has known!
That family’s children were famous when grown.
“So, please,” Paris pled, “as a favor to dad…
Perform it for free. Let’s not make him mad.”
“I think you’re a fool!” laughed old Doctor Killdare
“I’m richer than him and I don’t really care.”
“You’re the biggest blame fool that ever skipped school!”
Then, Paris decided he was being too cruel.
“What terrible insults!” the wealthy girl said.
“If daddy finds out, he‘ll go out of his head!
I skipped a few classes but not like that Bush.”
He‘d have flunked school, without his family’s push.
Trickle-down doesn‘t work, with people this tight:
They only buy estate-homes, or jets to take flight!
Her allowance would buy Cleopatra’s great barge
But her yacht payment was due and it was quite large.
“Don’t spend principle,” was a family mandate
But Paris’ plump problem just wouldn’t wait!
“I can’t have a child. And I won’t!” Paris pouted
She’d blame CIA, then, get those cells “outed.”
That had worked with Valerie Plume.
If a puppet did it, it was safe to assume…
that Bush’s blonde boss could pull it off too!
As Karl Rove teaches, “who cares what is true.”
Hilton knew that she was above ANY law
Still, as Paris pondered, she spotted a flaw
Spooks in trench-coats might come in the night…
And water-board her, till dawn’s early light!
“I think…” Hilton hissed, “I’ll call Cheney instead!
I bet Uncle Dick will fix all that I dread”
Then, that plucky young Paris picked up the phone…
And she called the BIG boss but no one was home.
It seems Uncle Dick had gone hunting that day.
If you hunt with Dick Cheney, stay out of his way!
Dick doesn’t go for discriminatory junk…
He’ll shoot down ANYONE at all when he’s drunk!
They say old Dick Cheney has a daughter quite gay.
And if she wants to marry, she’ll soon get her way.
Gay marriage, like abortion, are meant to divide…
voters, who debate, while defending their pride.
As the citizens argue, they’re bound to lose sight…
of the REAL issues and their terrible plight.
Brittany or Paris dominate what they call “news.”
TV is a forum that gives limited views.
Is Paris pregnant? someone might ask…
But reporting on Paris isn’t my task.
Instead, I’ll give Exxon another small mention..
before men in black put us ALL in detention.
When gas goes up about a dollar or two…
Will we ALL make a living, like richer folks do?
Is it an attempt to create only two classes?
Are super-elite making slaves of our asses?
It sure is fun thinking of Paris Hilton…
But it brings to mind a title by Milton.
When that last card is laid and we measure the cost…

The horse is not deadDakota tribal wisdom says that when you discover you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount.
In business, however, it seems that we often try other strategies with dead horses, including the following:
1. Buying a stronger whip.
2. Changing riders.
3. Saying things like "This is the way we always have ridden this horse."
4. Appointing a committee to study the horse.
5. Arranging to visit other sites to see how they ride dead horses.
6. Increasing the standards to ride dead horses.
7. Appointing a tiger team to revive the dead horse.
8. Creating a training session to increase our riding ability.
9. Comparing the state of dead horses in today's environment.
10. Change the requirements declaring that "This horse is not dead."
11. Hire contractors to ride the dead horse.
12. Harnessing several dead horses together for increased speed.
13. Declaring that "No horse is too dead to beat."
14. Providing additional funding to increase the horse's performance.
15. Do a CA Study to see if contractors can ride it cheaper.
16. Purchase a product to make dead horses run faster.
17. Declare the horse is "better, faster and cheaper" dead.
18. Form a quality circle to find uses for dead horses.
19. Revisit the performance requirements for horses.
20. Say this horse was procured with cost as an independent variable.
21. Promote the dead horse to a supervisory position

2. Easy access to elite American universities.
3. A positive self-image in the popular culture.
4. The finest primary and secondary schools that America's top cities can provide.
5. High-paying, secure union jobs.
6. Plentiful taxi service.
7. Office enviornments where the assumption is that they deserve every promotion based upon hard work and intelligence, not some other nefarious government-enforced scheme.
8. Fine health care and the best hospitals.
9. Acceptance at the finest social clubs.
10. A word free of pre-conceptions.
