I refuse to spend a red cent in the state of AZ.
MUst be the heat, fries voters brains..
To reward idiocy is to embrace it.
Hard to say but one thing we know for sure. The AZ electorate is for sending him back so many times despite the facts.
I've gotten more involved in local politics, out of sheer necessity. I had always made the assumption that local pols might have marginally better motivations, if only because they need to live in the bed that they make.
Nope. Dumb. Dumb as a box of rocks, and grasping (greedy, too, but "grasping" is more apt, I think). The local town council meeting is a snake pit, and I feel like I need a shower after every time I visit it.
Irving TX has a great mayor, everyone on the council is crap. And that is a suburban city.
Look, we live in a world where the New York Times and Washington Post care more about the name of a football team than the IRS targeting citizens based on their political beliefs. At least McCain has a half baked acceptable reason for being nuts... torture and all... What can we say about the rest of them?
Here’s my guess... no one will ask. And if they do ask, no one will report on it. People here know it verged on voter fraud... and might have been voter fraud... but since voter fraud in black communities is ‘sacred’ among liberals this will fall beneath the awareness of their press...
By your own admission:
:: Heres my guess... no one will ask. And if they do ask, no one will report on it. ::
The press WILL report; “we understand your concerns about the Federal Government over-reach, but what are your personal views on the name of the Washington DC NFL team? On re-direct, please provide a single sound-bite so we we are able to report that you are a racist tea-party member.”
The City Council members (all elected, and I for dammed sure will be paying more attention in future elections) are either dumb, crooked, or both. What dragged me into local politics was that, last year, the Council wanted to drop a large (200+ unit) section 8 housing project right in the middle of my (middle-to-upper-middle class) housing development. Really, really stupid, if for no other reason than property values will be ruined and the town will lose a major part of its tax base. Why the council would allow something so self-defeating to come about is a mystery to me, unless I was allowed a look at a few of their bank accounts.
The homeowners got it shot down - for now - but I've since been attending all meetings to keep an eye on them. I'm certain that the developer will be back for another bite at the apple.
Sad, really. I expected more, I guess, from folks that I see on a weekly basis. We run the same roads, shop in the same places, have kids who attend the same schools. But I've come to find that the difference between them, and me, is like the difference between throwing a bullet, and shooting it.
Or is he so stupid he thinks we are that stupid? YES!
No. He knew exactly what he was saying. He is hoping we will fall for his sarcasm. That or he's rubbing our nose in it. I vote the latter.
Hell, yeah we want them to vote.
No one wants to disenfranchise them.
In fact, to ensure they have every opportunity to vote, they should vote the Wednesday before we do.
They really did't for a Republican. They voted for 15 bucks, apparently.
he is a knuckle head bully, doubling down. This is exactly the kind of GOP that produce police states and make the right look bad.
When will John McCain retire to the country of his loyalties, Mexico?
Sieg Heil
He ain’t that bright.
“They really did’t for a Republican. They voted for 15 bucks, apparently.”
Wonder if they could be bought off so cheap in generals.
Ok, I have no problem politically beating the heck out of McCain. He deserves every bit of it.
But in posting that picture please understand that he has limited mobility in his arms due to injuries sustained ejecting from his A-4 and subsequently being tortured while a guest of the North Vietnamese. That’s why he looks awkward in a lot of pictures.
I’m aware of the fact that McCain’s arm has limited mobility but don’t you think someone should have told him raising your right hand like that is not a good thing to do in that region of Europe given recent history. Also the guy on his left is a well known accused Nazi. And what was he doing over there in the first place before this conflict broke out? Is he Secretary of State or something?
Do you really think that if someone told him, he would have listened?
Scratch that. Do you think he would have remembered?
;-)
He truly is a horses ass.
