Bow, NH—No longer satisfied with having an upbeat tone, John Edwards is ready to draw blood on the campaign trail, flogging any opponent that gets in his way. During his campaign, he plans to punch harder, especially when addressing Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton, talk show radio host Rush Limbaugh, and big oil.
"Hillary continues to defend a system that does not work, that is broken, that is rigged, and is corrupt," Edwards said. “And if you think I’m going to let an emasculating woman become President of the United States, then you’re out of your mind."
Critics say that he has changed his image from when he was a spineless candidate. Now, he has dragged out the bats, whips and chains, and is threatening to knee cap his opponents.
“I’m going to give ‘em hell in Washington,” he said, quoting Harry Truman. “And if Rush Limbaugh calls me the “Breck Girl” again, I’m going down to the EIB southern command post and take him to the wood shed. The last thing I want is a conservative pig like him interjecting himself into my campaign! Where does he think he gets off?”
In New Hampshire, he appeared angry, virulent and frothing at the mouth. He told the twelve or so people gathered to hear him speak that it wasn’t anger, but passion driving his campaign.
Addressing his flock of followers, Edwards insisted that he would fight the oil industry, and their profiteering on home heating oil.
“America's dependence on oil not only leaves families vulnerable to rising prices, but it compromises our national security and fattens the pocketbooks of greedy oil companies,” he screamed. “This obsessive need to provide energy and make a profit has got to stop now! Send me to Washington and I’ll make it all go away!”
Edwards told the mob that six of the oil industry's biggest companies had raked in over $477 billion in profits over the past six years.
He also said that Exxon Mobil set a new record by raking in $40 billion in profits last year. “No other corporation has ever made an annual profit of that size,” he yelled, “and it’s all Bush and Cheney’s fault!”
“There are two America’s,” he fired. “And I want to take away Rush Limbaugh’s America. Put me in office, and I guarantee Rush Limbaugh and Hillary Clinton will never fill up their limousines again.”
Edwards also noted that he would do everything within his power to take all of the profits from big oil, and every rich, homophobic, sexist conservative along the line.
He also stated that he would cut government subsidies to oil companies. “The oil companies write off approximately $2 billion per year in costs associated with drilling. We’re going to take all of that away.”
And in a final appeal to the undecided voters, he said that as a successful trial lawyer, he gave his clients hope and won case after case because he was right, and didn't give up. He says he'd bring those same traits to the White House.
“As the President of the United States I will be in a position to appoint those judges willing to take from big oil, from people like Rush Limbaugh, and from the establishment people like Hillary Clinton. As your President, I will make this one America, an America reliant on government.”
Edwards noted that he was here to fight anyone and anything that gets in his way. He indicated that his new campaign tone reflected how he would act as Commander-in-Chief. He assured the dozen or so gathered that Hillary Clinton, Rush Limbaugh and big oil were finished.
Thanks for reading, Star. I appreciate it.
Me, I've gotten used to it. Kinda boring now...
:-)
$400 government haircuts for everybody! ;)
If I ever paid $400 dollars for a haircut, I must be a network news anchor.
:-)
Had to watch it on the computer because of the Time/Warner-NFL channel BS.
They were a little sloppy in their execution in the 2nd half, but they scored when they needed to. It could've been an even bigger victory. A good effort all in all. Had to watch it on the computer because of the Time/Warner-NFL channel BS.
DirecTV here. Been a subscriber since 1996, and I wouldn't have anything else.
I've considered satellite but many down here have weather issues with theirs. Do you?
“big oil”?
how about cnooc? now the world’s largest corporation.
and, russian state oil? saudi? kuwait? iran? venezuela?etc.
It’s OK...just didn’t understand it. :)

The only problems I have with it is when we get a heavy snow. Then, you only have clear the snow off the dish to get the signal back.
Now, they make covers for the dish so that snow can't accumulate. I haven't lost a signal since the heavy snow of 2004.
I think you would be completely satisfied with your DirecTV. I know you get rain where you're at, but it rain rarely interrupts your signal.
How it works is that your dish scans for the best possible signal through 40 or so transponders. If one transponder is not good, then it keeps going until a stronger signal comes in on another one.
When I first signed up for DirecTV, there was no digital cable yet. Finally, cable went digital to compete with satellite, and we've been besieged by nasty television commercials ever since.
For me, the money I spend is worth every penny for the experience I get in my television viewing. And now you can get the High Definition dishes for your HiDef television.
In the end, in my opinion, you get what you pay for, and what your budget allows you to do. If the guy that puts the dish on does a good job, then you should have little or no problems with your satellite dish.
That may be some of the problems you here about with dishes. It's like any other company. They have good employees and bad employees.
It might not hurt to try it. You can always go back to cable.
I believe you’re a victim of satire, ken.
:-)
Put the ping list in the comments section, makes you feel really stupid.
:-)
Good to hear about Rush’s health. We need him hanging around. The Breck Girl has the best hair.
:-)
I may give it more serious consideration since you don't really have any problems. Do you also use it for internet or can you? I also use cable to connect, but have been getting dropped lately and that is very irritating.
Yes. Hillary Clinton.
You can use your satellite dish if you want, but I use a phone line.
Researching as we speak, but given only one choice, I'd rather have the net than the TV. Don't have much use for anything broadcast except Nascar.
