I'MMA LET YOU FINISH
I think that's 'Looser'
Hell-oscan has issues this morning. Didn't realize how evil Pombo was. Maybe he can sell cars along with Haggard (not that there is anything wrong with that).
That election result pleased me very bit as much as Webb's and Tester's.
In fact, it was one of the few bright spots in the California election.
I don't think there's been enough gloating here.
[pause]
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSER!
wonder if the thugs plan a feeding frenzy of evil legislation during the lame duck session.
Masters of the obvious AP Headline:
ANALYSIS: Things aren't going Bush's way
Analysis?
Loser asshole.
Hell-oscan has issues this morning
Yeh, and they just cropped up. I hope this isn't going to be one of those days.
Didn't Pete McCloskey, one of his own party, campaign against him?
McCloskey tried to knock him out at the primary - went to the extent of changing his residence in order to be in the district in order to do it. Pombo is and always was one of the most evil creatures in the West, and the amount of damage he wreaked even while not accomplishing all that he wanted, is stunning - what he would have done is horrifying.
He's from Tracy, huh?
According to Wikipedia, that's also where MC Hammer lives.
Small world . . .
Not to worry.
With Pombo's committee experience, I'm sure he'll get an important committee position in newly GOP dominated Club Fed.

I don't believe a word out of this woman's mouth...never have...never will! She knows exactly what she is doing. And I have now adopted a project to go into the very neighborhoods she has no doubt already targeted and literally teach the woman in those neighborhood the reasons why they should NEVER even consider voting for this awfull liberal liar!
Thanks for a great thread!!

Terry C, An American Again!
Yup, but the surge came late in the campaign as the progressives from all over the state descended on that district and educated the voters on just what Pombo had done/not done, and what McInerney could/would do.
From below:
Those who fail "end up selling cars or shoes or something, and being miserable and angry the rest of their lives," London said.
They already WERE miserable and angry.
That's WHY they BELIEVE all that fundamentalist nonsense.
Must have been the earth angel.

Sounds like pombo didn't know how to act like an adult which is how you get your programs passed.
NPR just had a reminiscence from Alice Furlow (sp?) about her cat, Miss Pudding, who died July 13th. And I got misty eyed--OK, a bit more than misty.
She closed by saying one of her reliefs about Miss Pudding dying when she did is that she no longer has to fear that she may die before her cat, leaving Miss Pudding alone to one morning pad into the bedroom, knock the green pen onto the floor, her wake-up call, and there would be no waking her mistress up.
Hit me because I'm getting old enough that I have to face that--with Mitsy, my under a year-old cat.... When I adopted my cats this Spring, I had to specify how they would be cared for if I were incapcitated or died. Talk about intimiations of mortality!

Not only that: he ran against Pombo in the primary.
As a former resident of the area, and someone who went to high school with Pombos (Richard was shipped off to the Catholic school in Stockton, for some reason), this is particularly enjoyable...
"The election was a sobering splash of cold water on the president and political strategist Karl Rove, both of whom had insisted Republicans would win."

Hope we make it thru the day. We have the Marine Corps ball tonite. Being that yesterday was the actual Marine birthday, we partied pretty hard last night.
I imagine we'll tough it out though.
Before I forget - Happy Veteran's Day.
Back on topic, thank goddess Pombo didn't succeed (much) in his agenda.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
gosh it feels good to mock republican loosers. i think we should start every day like this.

I have a Portuguese-American friend living in Newark who you didn't mention Pombo to if you didn't want him to go off. He called him a "disgrace."
Needless to say, Joe is REAL happy about Pombo's getting beat.
Thank goodness Pombo will be gone soon! Now if we could just short-circuit the GOP "a loss is really a win for conservative values" spin machine!
...both of whom had insisted Republicans would win."
According to George Will and the MSM, conservatives did win. It's just a technicality that they are in the "Democrat" Party.
Tony Snow announced a new faith based initiative focusing on car and shoe salesmen today.

Fell asleep with the TV on last night at MSGOP.
Woke up about 5 AM and there's Fucker Carlson doing his "things aren't as bad as they seem" schtick for the faithful.
No wonder he's so loyal to Chimpy - they have so much in common. Both of them have no talent, but their families' money has carried them along.
Neither of them can dress worth a damn either.

carville not so much:
Karen Finney, a spokeswoman for the D.N.C., responded by saying, “After President Bush and the Republicans have admitted to a thumping, why is it that the only one complaining on the Democratic side is James Carville, who today, in addition to trashing Howard Dean, praised the R.N.C., the outfit that brought us the racist ad that defeated Harold Ford, James’s supposed candidate for chair?”

That's exactly correct. Instead of being in the slightest bit patriotic, Republicans have stood for no one o0ther than themselves, setting our country back 20 years at least.
Meanwhile, the rest of the world has NOT stood still. These people are treasonous, seditious, larcenous criminals and should be treated as such. There will be time to "embrace bipartisanship" AFTER, but NOT before the GOP has been held to account.
I think his daddy has already told him,

GOP spokesman: Hayworth lost race
Associated Press
Though U.S. Rep. J.D. Hayworth wants to count every ballot in his losing bid for re-election, the National Republican Congressional Committee seems to have given up.
NRCC Communications Director Carl Forti told Republicans in an e-mail that Hayworth and several other GOP incumbents wouldn't be returning to Congress. ...
Reached on his cell phone Friday, Forti told the AP that the memo wasn't meant to be published and the NRCC hasn't conceded the race.
"Obviously we're awaiting official results," Forti said. "We look forward to revising it should he manage to win."

Speaking of which, I'm not sure which I enjoyed more while standing in line at the grocery store yesterday: the tabloid headlines blaring that Katie Couric had already been fired by panicky network executives unnerved by her abysmal ratings, or the tabloid headlines about Laura Bush trying to push her husband into alcohol rehab in a last-ditch effort to save their marriage.
The latter had a particularly good picture of a drunken Chimpy...
Tucker, this is how bad it was! Idiot!
Marie Steichen died two months ago but she won a battle to become a county commissioner for a small South Dakota town in the US elections, an official said.
Jerauld county auditor Cindy Peterson said that the election list closed on August 1, and while Steichen died from cancer in September her name was kept on the list for Tuesday's election.
Steichen beat a Republican rival by 100 votes to 64 and Peterson said she believed that voters knew the woman was dead but wanted to make their political point.
Marie Steichen didn't just win the election, her Republican opponent was an incumbent.

This case also may not go anywhere, but I like to see the attempt made.
BTW, if a warrant is issued for Rummy in Germany, does the warrant apply throughout the rest of the EU?
"Rumsfeld may face abuse charges
Donald Rumsfeld, who quit as US defence secretary this week, may face criminal charges in Germany for alleged abuses in Guantanamo Bay and Iraq.
A complaint has been launched by the US-based Centre for Constitutional Rights, representing a Saudi detained in Cuba and 11 Iraqis held in Baghdad.
German law allows the pursuit of cases originating anywhere in the world.
The centre made a similar request in 2004 but German prosecutors dropped that case."

ROVE: Not that you would exhibit a bias, you just making a comment.
SIEGEL: I'm looking at all the same polls that you are looking at.
ROVE: No, you are not. I'm looking at 68 polls a week for candidates for the US House and US Senate, and Governor and you may be looking at 4-5 public polls a week that talk attitudes nationally.
SIEGEL: I don't want to have you to call races...
ROVE: I'm looking at all of these Robert and adding them up. I add up to a Republican Senate and Republican House. You may end up with a different math but you are entitled to your math and I'm entitled to THE math.

Hard to keep someone honest who was never honest to begin with.
I think the word "conservative" needs to be thrown into the trash since it seems to mean "all that is good" but really means "all that is bad".

watertiger
Karl looks at statistics the way some of the folks I work with do - to justify whatever the hell deal they're trying to get thru at that time. Problem is, in my line of work, we are dealing with data from production test results. Rove is dealing with a much less predictable population to the point that I would consider his comparing past elections results to this one invalid.
Rove thinks that Lie-by winning re-election validates his idea that people are not all that pissed about the war in Iraq. I'm not convinced of that either.
Dr. Dean had the ill grace to proven correct. The walls to "the club" have been breached and the members are seeing the value of their exclusive membership cards depreciate before their eyes. It is in many cases, these Democrats, that are spoken of with such distaste by some intellectuals of the Right. Not, it appears, without some cause.
GWPDA, if you don't mind, how high was your fasting blood sugar level? Read that on Byetta you're down to 85. Wow.
I mentioned earlier that my endo doesn't think 115 FBG is that bad, to just not eat sugar (!), and my primary care physician (PCP) thinks it's terrible, but that Byetta is not on label for pre-diabetics and, anyway, it could be dangerous since it's so new--and I should just treat food as poison.
The latter was after I asked if working with a nutritionist might be helpful since my dieting doesn't work so well on Synthroid and whatever else might be going on.
It was an amazing appointment. Earlier, he had told me my cholesterol micro-testing showed I had some of the really bad types of LDL and that he would want to prescribe something for it. Now, it's just if I were on a desert island with no food I would lose weight (and die, he added), but clearly if I treated food as poison I would lose weight. I think he has a point! All I need is an eating disorder, such as anexoria--those people view food as poison, right?
Grrrrrrr.

Before I forget - Happy Veteran's Day.

Erm... we usually don't append "happy" to "Rememberance Day".
You guys have a fucked up culture, where war is "happy".
Lest We Forget
owls.
Curb Stomping is most vividly depicted in American History X , a great, disturbing, movie, iirc.
GWPDA, if you don't mind, how high was your fasting blood sugar level? Read that on Byetta you're down to 85. Wow.
I mentioned earlier that my endo doesn't think 115 FBG is that bad, to just not eat sugar (!), and my primary care physician (PCP) thinks it's terrible, but that Byetta is not on label for pre-diabetics and, anyway, it could be dangerous since it's so new--and I should just treat food as poison.
jawbone, I think it's really, really important that you change physicians.
115FBG is definitive evidence of Impaired Fasting Glucose - "pre-diabetes". THat is not some mild, oh gosh not really diabetes, nor indeed is insulin resistance just a little 'glitch'. You have diabetes. It will get worse. Your body will exhaust your beta-cells, you will encounter all the various consequences and you will become overtly, definitely ill. If your endocrinologist is unaware of the current blood sugar levels and their indications then I would not wish him as my endocrinologist - that would be about as useful as having a GP who thought a bone sticking thru your shin might someday pose a problem but would 'probably be all right.' As for being 'off-label", I fail to see what that even means, other than to serve as a way to prevent your medical problem from being resolved. The designation is one that is claimed by the manufacturer, not the physicians prescribing it, any more than some vague, superstitious belief that the medication is somehow analogous to other diabetes drugs that were withdrawn from the market. That such a comment would be made to you suggests medical ignorance of alarming proportion.
As tho you didn't know that when being told to treat food as poison, or having it conveyed to you, apparently that Synthroid causes weight gain.
You need better, competent physicians. The ones you have are idiots.
It is in many cases, these Democrats, that are spoken of with such distaste by some intellectuals of the Right. Not, it appears, without some cause.

Whatever an "intellectual of the right" is. Like virtually every last one of them, one scratch and there's nothing but an extremely greedy and willful ignoramus underneath.
--------------------------------------
This is what the GOP has collectively done to America for 6 years, since they stole 2000. So, it's more than a little understandable, it's one of those rare cases where it's actually appropriate, called-for, and necessary. Diebold
Like I said yesterday:
THEY were going to "curb stomp" US.
-------------------------------------
Just making up a quote retroactively does not qualify as truth. The party in question has to have actually used the quote one is attempting to attribute to them, or one is merely engaging in ad hominem framing.
-------------------------------------
THEY were going to make US leave "their" country.
-------------------------------------
Ditto, although this is incrementally closer to the truth of what was stated, which is that "they" seem to believe it is their perogative to do do whatever they want with impunity and entirely disregard our rights, especially as they STOLE TWO ELECTIONS.
-------------------------------------
THEY were going to come drag US off in the middle of the night and put US in camps.
------------------------------------
Ten minutes research wil prove that Halliburton has in fact built several prison camps on our US soil.
-------------------------------------
Yeah.......whatever!
------------------------------------
That's right.

pombo's defeat is one of the greatest of the great moments this election. i suggest he be given a job on the galapagos islands removing fungal growths from giant tortoises shells.
I know this is a dead thread, but I hope someday God sends a squad of giant mutant baby seals to track down this motherfucker and club him to to a bloody pulp in the driveway in front of his country club while all his friends and business colleagues look on in horror and fear.
As THE song said, We'd had enough.
Pombo was truly public enemy number one here in California. On Wednesday I drove by numerous Pombo Real Estate and Pombo: Rancher/Congressman signs enroute to Stockton. What sublime pleaure knowing Pombo will be gone.
Over 14 years the Tracy area was destined to become less conservative. More and more Bay Area folks move out there because the real estate is a bit cheaper, although a LOT more expensive today than 20 years ago. It's transitioning, if it hasn't already, from Valley to Bay Area.
I know this is a dead thread, but I hope someday God sends a squad of giant mutant baby seals to track down this motherfucker and club him to to a bloody pulp in the driveway in front of his country club while all his friends and business colleagues look on in horror and fear.
Was Pombo's undoing caused by the people who lived in the housing developments he crusaded for and had built in his district not carrying the values he expoused?
Irony
Score one for the planet.
Along with J.D. Hayworth's defeat, Pombo going down was the highlight of Tuesday evening in the House races. Both of those guys represent the worst elements of the GOP and they're both rock-stupid to boot. (Hayworth was described once as "so dumb, he needs cue cards to remember his cliches.") It's a pleasure to see them gone from Congress where they can do no more harm.
Hayworth still has not conceeded his race?! Will someone crack that idiot upside his fat head and tell him he lost? Sheesh.
