Thanks, Lurch!

I have to admit, John al-Querry has impeccable timing. Even two years later, I still find it remarkable that al-Querry was unable to defeat Bushitler in 2004. In fact, every time I see/hear a Bush press conference, I’m astounded that al-Querry found a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. This speaks to two things – al-Querry’s high level of unlikability and his general stupidity.
I’ve always thought, there’s no way al-Querry can be stupid. You can’t get to be a U.S. Senator and be that stupid, can you? Well, after his non-apology yesterday afternoon, there is no escaping the conclusion that – not only is Lurch an ivy-league, money-marrying, arrogant socialist elitist – he’s also a blithering idiot.
Sure, the media is carrying his water, but that’s no surprise. “It was a botched joke,” they contend. The reality is, that Lurch has a long history of attacking the military and this is just his true contempt for the men and women of our military slipping out once again.
The best part of the whole affair is that Dim-O-Crack fortunes have been looking up heading into the election, and al-Querry has somehow found a way to remind the voting public of just why the socialist left makes us puke – they’re nothing but a bunch of elitist liars who claim to support the troops, but the reality remains that they spend their time and political capital undermining the troops and the war on terror.
Thanks, John. We love it when you report for duty.
UPDATE:
Oh, no he di’unt.
War critics continued to hammer Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld for “not sending enough retards to do the job and/or wear brightly colored mismatched socks.”
UPDATE 2:
This one is making the rounds, and it’s a good’un:

It’s ABOUT TIME one of you guys picked up the ball on this one. You guys (Annika excepted of course) are stupid morons.
If the dumb-ass would just APOLOGIZE, this thing would dissipate.
I’m not buying his excuses. First of all, he prefaced his comment by saying “We’re here to talk about education…”
Next, he was in California stumping for a GOVERNOR’S race. What the hell does that have to do with Bush?
Finally, it doesn’t matter what his intent was. No matter what he MEANT, he should apologize for what he SAID. Period.
Oh yeah. That “stupid morons” crack at the beginning of the comment? It was a botched joke. I was trying to make a joke about Toads, UT Football and Harold Ford Jr. It came out wrong.
I’m sorry.
(PS Cranky. I know that Toads are no joking matter. I’m sorry for that too.)

[...] First…. It was dumb……pandering to a bunch of college kids by infering they are smart. I’ve been to college…..when it comes to college kids and their concept/grip of reality……at best they are idealistic and niave…..at worst, dumber than, well…..sorry kids, when those loans start coming due reality will smack you in the face. You might wish you’d spent a little less time at all those keggers and Campaign Rally’s. Second….It was dumb…. If you can’t tell a joke or create a proper negative inference…..just don’t do it. A week before an election did you think nobody from the other side would be paying attention to what you say…..or how you say it? Kerry’s fumbling attempt to make the President seem dumb did just the opposite……. Keep a sense of Humor in Washington…… Vote Conservative…. Annika’s Journal nails it. Michelle Malkin vents…. Mudville Gazette has the plain stupid words of Idiots. Six Meat Buffet gives thanks where thanks is due. [...]

You know who else I have a problem with…. the f*cktards who were at the Angeliedes rally who clapped their silly little hands off at this comment.
Those people, whom I am ashamed to share a state with should go f*ck themselves.
Thank you.

Damn straight, Jenn. And why do you have to be such a hard-ass, Billy?
November 1st, 2006 at 2:21 pm
It was a JOKE Preston…
Oh wait. You didn’t find that funny? OK, I think I know how to get out of this…
Ahem…
I apologize for NOTHING. If you’re looking for an apology, perhaps you should turn to the Bush administration. Without their lies and deceit I never would have typed those words and hence, you would not be offended.
OK…all fixed.

Kerry’s Comments: A Round-Up…
Here is what local bloggers are saying about Senator John Kerry’s comment about “getting stuck in Iraq.” Sean Braisted: It’s just amazing how the awful timing of something can turn a flubbed line by a failed Presidential candidate into an……

Why did I click on the NIT trackback?

You should know better than that, Reterd.

Billy, I knew you were going to blame it all on Bush, or global warming, which is caused by Bush, so same thing. And lay off the toads, punk, or cranky will get even crankier, or is that more cranky? Damn sorry Arkansas education, I blame that on Bill Clinton. I shoulda joined the military.

Some good Minnesota boys in that Iraq pic, according to Powerline. More balls than the Twins had this year… hope none of them get done for uncorrectiness.
I’m still wondering how the hell our intrepid South Park guys have kept their hands off Kerry all this time. Can’t wait for next week, knowing how quick their turnaround time is these days. Remember Saddam captured on a Sunday, and featured the following Wed? Hmmmm… Pelosi in a love thing with Mrs. Garrison. Or Charlie Rangel being recalled back into the military. Or Teddy (insert anything involving drinking, driving, boinking or dead peoples.)

I’m calling on Billy to cancel any future appearances on behalf of Insufferable Prick Party candidates. He’d just be a distraction.

Never ceases to amaze, this snotty, arrogant, half-wit prick embodies everything disgusting about Dimowit party. Botched joke, my butt…they then stuff his dumb ass in front of a podium full of flags where he can blame his slip of the tongue on Dubya. What a loser. Do these people ever go away? Or are we forever doomed to the eternal punishment of seeing them in the media as if they had any more relevance now than back then? I suspect he is a cyborg like Teddy, Jimmy C, and Fidel; change their batteries once every hundred years and they’re good to go.
