Or maybe, they're just starting to float to the top because it's getting so crowded in corruption muck. It is more than frustrating to see our leaders act (It is an act, isn't it?) like they care for our country and people but respond every single day like they are paid mouthpieces of some special interest. If they weren't allowed to shovel our money out without issuing IRS 1099's to all the recipients we'd at least see where it's going. IG's that go along, get along. Those that don't get to join the growing ranks of the unemployed.SenatorMark4http://senatormark4.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4223398383609158624.post-42944991257170039592009-08-01T19:25:06.627-04:002009-08-01T19:25:06.627-04:00The Republicans don't want to offend their bet...The Republicans don't want to offend their betters in the Democratic party. I can understand that. A little scolding will send them whimpering under the bed for another election. My advice for the next election, vote Democrat. Good or bad you'll get representation. The Republicans? You'll never know they're there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4223398383609158624.post-45555059592252819612009-08-01T17:36:36.585-04:002009-08-01T17:36:36.585-04:00"The Republican minority, both staffers and m..."The Republican minority, both staffers and members, don't want to alienate the majority by making direct, public accusations of mala fides". This is what makes me so damn mad at the Republicans. As I told a Republican candidate for a county office last night, "Republicans are always playing defense to the Democrats accusations. Get on the offense". What a bunch of wimps. Oh, for the days of challenges to duel over honor and slights!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4223398383609158624.post-15488111694593276702009-08-01T00:37:20.861-04:002009-08-01T00:37:20.861-04:00So...there I am on a Friday night.

I've been relaxing for the past twenty or so minutes, gathering up the pictures I intend to post in tomorrow's installment of the International BikiniFest [hint: it will feature the greatest of all the bikini babes]. The Nicorette and Coke I'm consuming are tasting mighty sweet right about now and I'm getting ready to take a nice hot shower so I can wash the stink of the world away. Mrs. B. is heading for bed, so I'm planning on putting my feet up down in the living room and catching up on my reading for a few hours. A fine late evening is within my grasp. I decide to check in with Stacy McCain one last time for the evening to see if I might enjoy a ribald laugh before I jet off to Relaxville. As I punch in the url, I can hear the gods laughing--I figure they're laughing at some poor slob in the general vicinty. Little did I know, they were laughing at me. The Other McCain loads and, low and behold, I see an IG-GATE update. With my hand causing the mouse to shake, I scroll on and read it. There's good stuff there--per usual from RSM--but I can't enjoy it: my mind is now faced with a dilemma--my nerves, which had been slowly driving away from Tension City, now throw themselves into reverse. Do I do the right thing and post his lastest missive over at ig-gate.blogspot.com, which would be the responsible thing to do as the self-anointed aggregator of all things IG, and would prevent my Catholic soul from feeling the pangs of guilt at having failed those mythical beasts out in the ether called 'repeat visitors', or do I pretend to myself that I never saw the McCain missive. I decide the cleansing powers of the shower will aid in my decision. Of course, the answer was clear: I had to re-enter Tension City, full-bore, and do the right thing. I do the posting--all the while cursing Erick Erickson because he didn't invite Stacy to his damn conference so the man could hob-nob with Little Miss Attila and perhaps some sodden [or sodomite] RINOS and score free booze of his fellow wingnuts--no, Erickson had to shut him out, and now I'm paying for it and, my late evening, is ruined. Thanks-a-lot, Pal.<br /><br />Linked to this posting at:<br />http://ig-gate.blogspot.com/2009/07/200907312241-dodd-gate-and-ig-gate.htmlBob Belvederehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17220595844172546069noreply@blogger.com
