  No Cheddar in the White House. Oh boo.

  Let’s hope for the Cheddar, I lost it somewhere

  It’ll be fun to hear what the Loony Lefties make of the dual announcements from Thompson and Rove. There’s got to be some conspiratorial aspect to all this.

  For now I’m with Mike, not least for his outspoken support of the Fair Tax.

• 6 conserve-a-tips // Aug 13, 2007 at 8:29 am

  Don’t you people know that Rove’s departure reeks of corruption?????? He’s leaving because Reid and Pelosi are breathing down his neck, getting too close to the truth!!!! You can only play Rasputin for so long before it catches up with you.

  ~~~~~ OK. Liberal Looney mode off ~~~~~~

• 7 Libby Gone // Aug 13, 2007 at 8:52 am

  Maybe Rove just needs time to update the software to version 11.02.2008 in the mainframe of his Neoconatical MindContRove Emittor………

  In order to maintain my scrupulously “cool”, “in” and, even, “hip” image among the elite citizenry of ScrappleFaceLand, I am going to weigh in on the “cheese” sub-topic thusly:

  A montage of photographs. The cutting from photo to photo is pretty fast. Greek music is heard. Starting with: a close up of Mousebender, who is respectable and wears smart casual clothes; various photos of Mousebender walking along the pavement, again very artily shot from show-off angles; Mousebender pausing outside a shop; Mousebender looking up at the shop; Edwardian-style shop with large sign above it reading ‘Ye Olde Cheese Emporium‘; another sign below the first reading ‘Henry Wensleydale, Purveyor of Fine Cheese to the Gentry and the Poverty Stricken Too‘; another sign below this reading ‘Licensed for Public Dancing’; close up of Mousebender looking pleased; shot of Mousebender entering the shop.

  Well, duuuuh! Obviously Governor Thompson didn’t want Scott getting any credit for being prescient, so he stuck it out an extra four weeks. But getting called “Fred” all the time was starting to wear a little thin.

  “Why should this Ott fellow running that stupid satire site get any kind of kudos for handicapping this horse race?” Governor Thompson was heard to have unwittingly muttered near an open mike. “He must think he’s Nostradamus or something.”

• 15 Darthmeister // Aug 13, 2007 at 1:17 pm

  gafisher,

  I smell something rotten in Demark, too. Have you ever noticed you never see Karl Rove and Governor Thompson in the same room together? Hmmmmmmm …

  That should give kool-aid swilling, barking moonbats something to gnaw on for the next couple of months.

  I was looking at a picture of Ron Paul on Wicky-wicky-pedia ( I hate spelling that Internet site) and came to the conclusion that he looks an awful lot like Pat Paulson. Go there and look.

  His resume looks like a Republican from the front and a Democrat from the back, if ya get my drift.

• 22 conserve-a-tips // Aug 13, 2007 at 8:40 pm

  Ms Rightwing, Ink: The first time I saw him on the first debate, I said the same thing. Now, when I look at him, I can’t get away from Laugh-In.

• 23 Darthmeister // Aug 13, 2007 at 10:10 pm

  Speaking of Pat Paulsen, I bet he would have won in 1968 if he had run of the platform of “America has had enough of North Vietnam, I’ll nuke Hanoi if elected.”

  Clearly his more circumspect, pacifist platform didn’t serve him well since he was probably viewed only as a McGovern lite given the declining number of supporters he had in 1972. After all, McGovern was a pacifist war hero whereas Pat Paulsen, though a Marine, only guarded a bunch of Jap* losers in a Chinese prison camp.

  *Warning: World War II lingo in use to honor American veterans who often suffered greatly in ruthless Japanese prisoner of war camps.

  That’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it!

  WEAKENING FLOSSIE SKIRTS HAWAII…
  More evidence of global warming. BTW, where are all the deadly hurricanes? Must be a Rovian Weather Machine plot to lull us into a sense of security while “weather change” continues its evil and inexorable march.

  Balloon ban wipes smile off clown’s face; children might be allergic to latex…
  Can’t have any potential for danger in an utopian, left-wing society. Read my new book: “Safe From Cradle to Grave: A liberal legacy.”

  PLUNGE: TIME magazine circulation drops 17% in past year…
  Progressive news progressively declining. Who would have thunk it. I guess the sly Bush-equals-Hitler and we’re-losing-in-Iraq rants aren’t helping circulation.

  Comptroller General: USA Should Learn From The Fall Of Rome…
  Military adverturism didn’t destroy Rome. It was the decline in public morality, political intrigue and murders, the unrelenting persecution of Christians and ultimately engaging in its own holocaust against the Jews. Doh!

  Good sleeping weather here at the bunker as the temps fell into the ultra-comfortable 50’s. But, as a good conservative, I must arise and get busy. My government check comes whether I am lazy or ambitious, but my inner being is still alive and blah, blah, blah.

  Gotta go

• 26 conserve-a-tips // Aug 14, 2007 at 8:07 am

  Good morning! The sun is already heating up an already doomed globally warmed earth. Oh where can we go?

  Dartmeister, did you also read that while the hurricane is losing strength and skirting the islands, an earthquake didn’t?

  And I have a question…isn’t Wartime Hero Pacifist an oxymoron? Or is it just a moron?

  It is becoming more evident that the Iowa Straw Poll is a rather un-humorous show of political higgldy piggldy.

  If my home state wants to be taken seriously they better stick to bacon and Spam.

  Unlike Cincinnati, it is 12:47 ESDST and a moderate 74 degrees. That is where a person can go, but who wants to be here?

  I’m keeping my eye out for one of those devastating hurricanes the National Weather Service predicted. Nothing in sight yet here in Ohio.

• 31 GnuCarSmell // Aug 14, 2007 at 12:08 pm

  Looks like the Iowa straw poll separated the curds from the whey.

  (Ron Paul, are you listening?)

  Taxing water? Just another Big Government scam to make outlaws out of people who drink water from their tap. Either you pay the tax or face fines and court costs! Soon bootleggers will be crossing the Great Lakes with smuggled Canadian H2O!

• 33 conserve-a-tips // Aug 14, 2007 at 2:43 pm

  GnuCarSmell - that was really bad.

  Ms Rightwing, Ink: I just checked the thermometer on our back porch, in the shade, and it is registering 104. That means that it could be around 110 in the sun. I am having to hose down the labrador to keep him cool. We may just want to find out what Ohio is like!

  LibbyGone, I come from Moonshiner parts back in east Tennessee…I’m thinkin’ bootlegger here? Clear water looking liquid in glass Ball jars with screw on lids…hmmmm….what a concept. The only thing I have to figure out is how to make water using copper tubing and a big copper kettle.

  Cheddar flavored Spam anyone?

  During the heat of the Iowa caucus a Hawkeye straw poller ran into a Wisconsinite straw poller.

  Hey, you got Spam on my Helluva Good Cheddar! No, you got Helluva Good Cheddar on my Spam.

  These deadly Chinese toys prove that Bush is trying to kill children and voting-age Democrats. Is there no bottom to the well of this man’s evil? (Or, as Patrick Leahy might ask, “What did Karl Rove know, and when did he know it?”)

• 38 JamesonLewis3rd // Aug 14, 2007 at 7:38 pm

  Don’t forget the dog food or the tires that China also used to tried to kill us with a couple of months ago.

  They’ve been undermining us and laughing at us for years.

  I’d close the ports to them-they’re acting just like terrorists, if you ask me.

• 39 EXT // Aug 14, 2007 at 7:43 pm

  Ridiculous!

  Why would Bush waste any time killing voting-age Democraps? They hold conventions just to attack and kill each other. Some in between conventions…done in by being thrown under the Big All-Inclusive Entitlement Bus if they lose just one little election!

  In the crossword puzzle this morning:

  37 Across: Activity at Democrap Convention
  (11 letters)

  Answer: fratricide (the have trouble counting, too)

• 40 GnuCarSmell // Aug 14, 2007 at 9:34 pm

  By the way, I don’t suggest that Bush is specifically targeting children and voting-age Democrats for Lead-based Paint Genocide (LPG). I merely point out the obvious: that only children and voting-age Democrats
  gnaw the paint off imported action figures.

  Further study is needed.

• 41 R.A.M. // Aug 15, 2007 at 3:25 am

  The China plan is to put poison in EVERYTHING except Chinese food, and then raise the price of it.

  These little people are pure genious!

• 43 Darthmeister // Aug 15, 2007 at 7:17 am

  R.A.M.,

  You don’t actually think the Chi-Coms would actually off someone - particularly a homegrown Chinese pig-dog capitalist who is selling products with lead-based paint and glycol - who was putting their reputation and trade status at risk now would ya? [(~;]œ

  Remember, only left-wing socialists care about the environment, world peace and making products safe that children invariably swallow. It’s a miracle our generation is still alive today!

  Bucky Covington’s music video A Different World:

  We were born to mothers who smoked and drank
  Our cribs were covered in lead-based paint
  No child proof lids no seat belts in cars
  Rode bikes with no helmets and still
  here we are … still here we are

  We got daddy’s belt when we misbehaved
  Had three TV channels you got up to change
  No video games and no satellite
  All we had were friends and they were
  outside, playin’ outside

  [ Chorus ]
  It was a different life
  When we were boys and girls
  Not just a different time
  It was a different world

  School always started the same every day
  The pledge of allegiance then someone would pray
  Not every kid made the team when they tried
  We got disappointed and that was all
  right, we turned out all right.

  Where are the Eviro-weenies? Dubya burps and they throw a fit about pollution and global warming, but their buds, the ChiCom’s, can do no wrong.

  Moonbat moron of the week … David Corn of The Nation: Mr Corn said on National Public Radio that, by leaving the White House, Karl Rove was “cutting and running” on Iraq.

  You can’t make such utter stupidity up. I guess in the bizarro world of liberaldumb, when a soldier rotates stateside he/she is “cutting and running from Iraq”. Or maybe when a soldier, after serving a tour of duty in Iraq , retires from military service he/she is “cutting and running from Iraq.”

  The changes are part of “Jarod’s Law” named after a 6-year-old killed at a school when a folding cafeteria table fell on him four years ago.

  Let me try again. I wrote that is sad when such a disaster strikes and a child is hurt, but are we to scrutinize every activity our children are engaged in to the point that every step needs to be protected. How many kids have been killed by cafeteria tables. A scan on the Internet proved to be useless in finding the answers.

  I often wonder how our forefathers and mothers ever made the trek across our unsettled wilderness by dirty, filthy oxen carts in the 1800’s. Surely they knew of the dangers a cart held for curious children, and the dust and fumes must have killed and injured at least a million kids.

• 50 Darthmeister // Aug 15, 2007 at 11:44 am

  Ms RightWing, I wonder when the PC schools will start pulling out cold water fountains to keep children from overchilling sensitive teeth and to save Mother Earth from the evil refrigerants and energy it takes to cool water?

  And may as well get rid of pencils since they could be used as pointed weapons AND if some children don’t get their daily dose of Ritalin™ they could chew their way through three or four pencil’s worth of graphite! Lord knows how that could damage their brains … that is what’s left of their brains after they plow their way through the liberal curricula force-fed them by the institutions of mass government education.

• 51 gafisher // Aug 15, 2007 at 11:58 am
