(2008-08-07) — In a double-trade designed to end bitter recriminations, and “to let bygones be bygones”, retired Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre has been traded to the New York Jets, and in return, New York will send defeated presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to the Republican Party.
Neither superstar has dealt well with being “out of the game”, and both have been looking for ways to extended their involvement.
Sen. Clinton’s people had been in negotiations with victorious rival Barack Obama to get a prominent role in the Democrat Party’s convention in August, while the Packers had offered Mr. Favre a “marketing contract” worth some $20 million which would have sidelined him as well.
But these seasoned competitors yearned to get back in the fray — to step out under the lights, to hear the cheer of the crowd, to smell the rich aroma of human blood and sweat and to savor the look of fear in an opponents eyes because you’re about to do something he doesn’t expect.
The Jets ended the 2007 season with a disappointing 4-12 record, and the GOP has stumbled to a 233-202 minority in the House, and 51-49 in the Senate. Each beleaguered franchise hopes the acquisition of a storied veteran will breath new life into the organization, yet spokesmen from both acknowledge that getting a grizzled warrior to adopt a new game-plan poses the proverbial challenge of “teaching an old dog new tricks”.

gafisher #2 - Good point. I’m thinking that Denver is in for some very interesting times.
I don’t know of course but I can speculate, guess and hope. It’s not impossible for HillBilly, Inc. to have acquired B.O.’s original birth certificate from Kenya. That would be something to spring on the DNC! It might backfire though and the DNC could scrap everything and hold a new primary. An ‘emergency’ primary would be a sight to behold.

I’m sick of hearing about Favre, the retired Green Bay Packers quarterback. A la Michael Jordan, how many “retirements” are we going to have to hear about from ol’ Brett? Guess his financial fortunes just don’t compensate for being out of the limelight. Pathetic!
Hillary’s already making noises about her supporters “being heard” in Denver. The Clintons…TWO MORE IDIOTS who refuse to go away.

Denverites are mostly annoyed with all the green weenies that are running around trying to impress the liberal left with Denvers ability to be ecologically sound. I would venture to say that if Denver really wanted to be green, they would send the convention elsewhere and keep the extra limos parked. But of course, even liberals like financial gain, can anyone say ’sellout’? If you watch the news comming out of the Rocky Foothills, you would think that everyone is on scooters ,driving electric cars and powering thier cell phones with tread mills. Green my …. well you know. Why not issue skateboards and let people get to the convention by thier own volition?
14 JamesonLewis3rd // Aug 7, 2008 at 12:55 pm
I read somewhere yesterday that The Hill & Bill Show has been on the phone hot’n'heavy with the so-called “superdelegates” lately.
Whereas John McCain is the Republican nominee because he has the required delegates, BO is only the “presumptive” Democrat nominee because he does not have the required delegates—it could very easily go either way.
It’s going to be fun to watch (although I’m not actually going to watch it).

I’m sure his “constituency” will be thrilled to vote for him again. The bonus for him will be Obama’s election…Kwame will be guaranteed a Presidential pardon!!

I wonder if any old growth trees were used in building his houseboat?
I bet Favre was sacked more times than sHrillary ever was. Of course the only sack that was really newsworthy was when the Donks decided to dump a lying ol’ bag whom they strenuously defended the last fifteen years in order to embrace their new messianic golden child whom they believe can tell no lies!
I have to admit, it has been rather interesting seeing how secular liberals turned on the Clintons in a matter of weeks and then got caught up in the messianic fervor over Obummer. But then that’s expected of people who think with their glands instead of their brains.
25 Darthmeister // Aug 7, 2008 at 6:24 pm
The ever articulate and brilliant Barack Hussein Obama answering a difficult question posed by a 7 year old girl: “America is …, uh, is no longer, uh … what it could be, what it once was. And I say to myself, I don’t want that future for my children.â€
But wait, if we are to understand his nearly incomprehensible answer, isn’t Obamessiah saying he wants to return America to its former glory in direct contradiction to his message of new “change” for the future? I guess by “change” Obamessiah means that he wants to change the future of America to reflect its past, that’s why he’s been recycling the same ol’ failed leftist political bromides on the campaign trail.
Well, I guess among his faithful followers the rules of contradiction don’t apply to messiahs.
26 conserve-a-tip // Aug 7, 2008 at 6:45 pm
Darthmeister: I wonder if the MSM will note that by saying that “uh, America is…uh…is no longer, uh…what it could be…” Obama is stating the impossible, since for America to have been what it could be, makes America no longer able to be what it could be since it already is in that particular state of being what it could be. But even worse, “could be” is in the future and “is no longer” is in the present and so he is saying that America can’t be in the present and the future at the same time. Duh.
And then we move on to “America is no longer what it could be - what it once was” which is basically saying that America is no longer in the past (what it once was), nor is it in the future (what it could be)and so it is evidently in the present (what IS). And so, we can only surmise that Obummer finds himself in agreement with his nemesis, William Jefferson Clinton, that it all depends on what the definition of is is. This man is deep and most articulate.
And JL3rd, I am so glad to see you back!!!

Side-by-side frames - First Frame - Marie Antoinette hanging out a window, looking over a crowd of gaunt-looking peasants with their hands held up toward her.
Second Frame Obama hanging out a window (big ears and all), looking out over a crowd of angry peasants all holding up gas cans toward him.

Under the second frame it says: "Let them inflate their tires"

“America is no longer what it could be (translation: America isn’t in the future) - what it once was (translation: America isn’t in the past). I don’t want that future for my children.” (Translation: I don’t want what America could be for my children.)
I think that I’ll send him a note and ask him if what America was in the past was where America should be, then why would be want America to be what it could be in the future? Maybe he thinks that we should be driving horses and buggies - no wait - flying around in Jetson-style cars - no wait - driving horses and buggies.
My head hurts. My high school critical thinking class is doing me no good at all.
31 da Bunny // Aug 7, 2008 at 8:58 pm
Both Rush and Sean Hannity, in picking apart Obam-uuuhhh’s “answer” to that little girl, asked when was America better, in Obie’s mind? He’s running on “change,” but what needs “changing” if America was “better” before? On the one hand, MichelleMyBelle is “finally proud of her country,” but on the other, Barry is saying America is “no longer what it once was,” but he doesn’t want to “change” it back to what it was before!!??!! There’s no scorecard that can keep up with such idiocy.
c-a-t, I’m with you in the “my head hurts” department as far as Obama’s senseless words. My dog makes more sense when he’s running in a circle chasing his tail!!
32 JamesonLewis3rd // Aug 7, 2008 at 9:10 pm
Exactly. That’s his idea of “change”: make the USA something it is not and was never meant to be.
33 Fred Sinclair // Aug 7, 2008 at 10:18 pm
I noted today Rush said that the Postal Service has reported a 3rd quarter loss of $1.1 B and the liberals want another government agency to run a national health care system.
The losses in health care systems in Canada, England and all Europe (and any other place it’s in force) is so bankrupting them that triage is in place to one degree or another.
After a certain age you don’t qualify for certain ‘expensive’ operations. Babies in the womb with known problems and/or deformities will be automatically aborted. Certain diseases MS - MD, etc. would get treatment based on age and potential of being a contributing citizen.
Liking McCain or not liking McCain cannot be a factor. Democratic control of the President’s Office could spell the end of America, (as we know it).
triage |trēˈä zh; ˈtrēˌä zh |
noun
1 the action of sorting according to quality.
2 (in medical use) the assignment of degrees of urgency to wounds or illnesses to decide the order of treatment of a large number of patients or casualties.
verb [ trans. ]
assign degrees of urgency to (wounded or ill patients).
Two kinds of surprises: (a.) birthday surprises and (b.) Pearl Harbor surprises. A Democrat win on Nov. 4th would be a (c.) = worse than (b.).

Re the article in #35,
It would be oh so great and quite fun to watch if the convention did not go ‘as planned’ for Barry O, but I am not optimistic.
I have been to various conventions and national business meetings ( on a much smaller scale) where there has been just as much background maneuvering and grumbling and when everyone shows up they just go blank like sheep and vote unanimously and apparently without thought. As you all know there is a group dynamic that causes folks who grumble to one or two of their friends or even send out flame emails to hundreds of people to simply sit down and shut up when actually faced with those same people.
Keeping my fingers crossed for fireworks.
43 Fred Sinclair // Aug 8, 2008 at 10:58 am
August 8, 1955 - August 8, 2008 = 53 years. Yet it doesn’t seem all that long ago when at age 17 I was (with written parental consent) “sworn in” at the U.S. Air Force Recruiting Center on Pico Blvd. in Los Angeles.
I still recall it as only a ‘little’ while ago. America was in the chill of the “Cold War”. ScrappleFace didn’t exist then and Rush Limbaugh was only 4 years old. Times have really changed but without Scott and Rush, America would be a much poorer country.
In spite of my nostalgic retrospect, I look today at a couple of dozen people in my address book that I call ‘my friends’. I would never have met them without Scott Ott. I want to take a moment to say “Thank you Scott, for your labors that are enriching my life and the lives of so many of my fellow Scrapplers. Good job.”

Of course, such progress will only infuriate the leftists in our country who would like to see our country destroyed and/or subservient to totalitarian masters.

Awwwww, the lamestream media gets another black eye. After covering for John “The Breck Girl” Edwards the last two years concerning his affair with a staffer, Rielle Hunter, Edwards himself will spill the beans after repeated and very flimsy denials. Of course this makes the guy an even bigger jerk for engaging in his affair while his wife was struggling with cancer. Can you imagine how the media vultures would have descended on any Republican or conservative who so callously betrayed his cancer-striken wife in such a manner?
The left-wing moonbats were in full denial mode the last two weeks when reputable sources put Edwards earlier in Beverly Hills “escorting” Ms. Hunter and were cleansing their comment boards of people who dared besmirch Edward’s sterling liberal character with such tawdry allegations. Once again moonbat blogsites like DailyKos and Demoncratunderground.com prove themselves to be little more than neo-fascist censors when independent sources and conservative bloggers report news not to their liking.
Edwards was such a liteweight anyway so even without the affair he would probably never be perceived with enough moral character (what do you expect of an ambulance chaser, right?) or gravitas to make a legitimate run for the presidency in the future.

I am also glad to report than I am working with a new neurologist and hope to see some new ideas to help me fight this rotten disease.
My other doctor was/is nice but is getting up in years, I suspect he is about 80.
They started me on Ritalin this week, but stopped then restarted today because the steroids and the medicine was giving me bad tremors.
It is not for ADD, which they use for kids, but in adults it is suppose to give MS patients more endurance. We shall see.
In two weeks I will meet with my new Dr and get more advance notices on prescriptions. The one costs about $1,500 a month but obviously that will be paid by Uncle Sam.
Thanks for thinking and or praying for me this past week. It was one of my worse relapses in a while and working against gravity was the reason I had to go back in. The floors here are hard and falling is no fun.

Having been bombarded since 0500 CDT with this Despicable Obsequious Narcissist, Edwards, I have noticed some interesting things—filtering out as much of the opinions of the pundits and talking heads as possible—just the facts, please.
Hypocrisy is bi-partisan; that’s why, as far as I know, the MSM went without noticing this story until, what, 2-3 days ago?
This blows the Entire Effete Elitist Liberal Ego to smithereens! Ergo…..Denial. Group Denial.
His admittance of responsibility for egotism and narcissism is pretty much meaningless—I haven’t seen any remorse whatsoever in Edwards, so far. That press release is bunk. I pray, for his family’s sake, the other family’s sake, the third family’s sake and, yes, for his sake that he fall on his face before the Lord and repent.
I’d like to be able to say that, in retrospect, he had always looked like a psychopath to me because he sure looks like one today.
Thank you

Edwards said this about Clinton in 1996
”I think this president has shown a remarkable disrespect for his office, for the moral dimensions of leadership, for his friends, for his wife, for his precious daughter. It is breathtaking to me the level to which that disrespect has risen.”
Hmm, the old dog came back and bit but good.
I guess he had an affair with that woman, who made his videos, in Storm lake, Iowa. My aunts and uncles raised their families there. Now he has ruined that special place in my mind.

Quick update: my daughter is better, but still not out of the woods yet. Our church pianist was taken off of life support at her request and is holding her own for now, she told another member that we weren’t gonna get rid of her that easy, but her overall prognosis isn’t good. My Pastor’s good friend has 8 ribs broken in two places and his lungs collapsed, now has pneumonia.
God is still good, even when life gets hard.
Glad to see you back Ms RW ! I haven’t had time to read all of the posts, maybe won’t be able to until next week as tomorrow we are going back to Montana to get MKK-IV from his month at camp. I dunno if we will return late tomorrow night/Sunday morning or around 7 AM on Sunday. I guess since this past Monday I’ve had maybe 6 or 7 hours that I wasn’t running somewhere, I’m beyond exhausted and mentally drained.
But as always, God will be good tomorrow.

I’ll bet there’s a bunch of sleuths sniffing along the money trail; that could be interesting.
Edwards should go to Leavenworth for some kind of Aggravated Presidential Candidate Fraud or something; except for his kids, I guess, but I don’t know. Anybody that voted for him in the primaries, or even rooted for him at all, must be livid!
He garnered 4.5 Total Delegate Votes in the primaries. I’ll bet they’re bummed.

The current accepted Morality in these United States is severly distressing. How can we rise above if the children see prominent people like Edwards and Kilpatrick engaged in such activity?
Again it has pervaded every single inch, yea even every fraction of measure in this land.

Fred Re the Obama Citizenship issue, [here] is a pretty good summary of the case at this point along with a suggestion that voters in each state demand that their respective Secretaries of State insist on positive proof of the Candidate’s Citizenship before permitting his name on the November ballot.
Apparently, the Obama “Birth Document” currently being circulated shows compelling signs to some experts of having been altered (forged) from the document originally issued for Obama’s half-sister. Sounds like there just might be a case here.

Drifting back to the current Scrappleface headline, if “Favre” is pronounced Farve, is “Hillary” now to be pronounced Hurl?

MKK re# 71 “he’s a lawyer ya know”.
Yes, that is what has surprised me about this whole Edward’s thing.
I’m sure you saw him being interviewed by the “journalist” who asked him about the trist .He was absolutely unbelieveable.His body language was screaming ” I am not telling the truth”!
It will probably be realestate law for him from now on.
Another thing.Isn’t it a coincidence that all of the Edward’s flack was released just when Obummer and family go on vacation?That way, McCain is off the news and Oblahblah is left in peace?
I’m just sayin’………..?
