THE MONDAY PRE-DEBATE GRUDGE

Posted by Pistol Pete

Were I a delusional,cold,unfeeling,aloof egomaniac convinced that I alone am the arbiter of all things, I would assume all of you await this post every day with bated breath,marveling at my sage wisdom,hanging on every syllable, just to make you wish you were half as smart as me.But then I would be the _resident and not a pot-bellied old white man trying to do my part to enlighten and entertain my friends.

Tomorrow is round two of the epic shtruggle between good and consummate evil.Barry claims he was ‘too nice’ at the last debacle and I look for him to try to pull a Biden by attacking Romney.This will endear him to the dregs who will vote for him no matter what,but do little,I believe, to help him with the independents he must have to con his way back into office.If Romney is as smart as I think he is,he will be well-prepared for the inevitable attacks on his 47% comments,Bain Capital, and blaming House Republicans for the Benghazi massacre.

Obama is desperate.He’s never faced an actual opponent where he had to stand on his own and not have his victory predetermined.I heard this morning there were rumors that the questions for this townhall-type forum were pre-screened,which is not supposed to happen.It would come as no surprise if it were true,since the media will do anything to save his bacon.In an intimate setting like this,Obama can seem human,almost lifelike, even though his forte is reading prepared speeches to adoring crowds.

Hopefully we see the real Mitt tomorrow night.Humble,resolute,in command of the facts,capable of offering solutions without the ‘malarkey’ we heard so much about from the Mouth That Roared last week.Obama knows he’s losing and desperation breeds contempt.When he starts to stutter and stammer for words he looks like a drowning man grasping for a lifeline.The Crowfoot will doubtless try to help him and Mitt must be ready to answer.This will not be a fair fight.They never are.

A blast from my HB past from CtH: In the spirit of Pete’s graphical contribution 🙂

SATURDAY AT PETE’S PIX

Posted by Pistol Pete

Decided to post a few videos,otherwise by Monday I’ve got more youtubes than a black woman has free cell phones.

A lot of you come here to read my comments. I assure you,nothing is planned in advance. I just write whatever pops in to what’s left of my brain.

THE SATURDAY GRUDGE

Posted by Pistol Pete

Kind of a gray,chilly,windy day here in northen Illinois.Plans for today include stoking up the fireplace and ‘kicking it’,as my grandkids call it.

From CtH:


There’s a great FOX News report about the ride embedded on this page [10:27]
http://www.w100k.com/media/president-bush-rides-with-wounded-warriors-|-fox-news

Check out Melissa Stockwell’s page. She’s a 2x World Champion ParaTriathlete!

If anybody gives you grief about being “disrespectful” toward their messiah, show them the piece of left-wing trash I found at the Daily Kos. Can you believe anyone actually DISSED George W. Bush (who they call “The Chimp”) for hosting special events for Wounded Warriors? They even managed, in the same short space, to DISS anyone and everyone who has ever worn the uniform. These people make me sick.

The Chimpster [brags about] sponsoring a golf tournament for Vets. How thoughtful. And why not?  Most of them have fairly flexible schedules nowadays (unemployed).
Except for the few lucky troops who found time to practice at the driving range when not dodging IEDs, I imagine most have never stepped onto a golf course, other than to pick up trash, turn on the sprinklers or to find a quiet spot to spend the night?

THE POST-DEBATE GRUDGE

Posted by Pistol Pete

You’ve heard about it;maybe you saw it.Part of my job is to cover this stuff and critique it for you so you don’t have to.If you missed it,consider yourself fortunate.It was ugly.Biteme was rude,condescending,arrogant,off-putting,bitter and overbearing.Had I been in Ryan’s chair,I would have been sorely tempted to leap across the table and administer the ass-whooping that his mama obviously didn’t give him.Maybe Ryan was told not to get into a mudfight with the ‘mouth that soared’,just let him rant.He did,I couldn’t.

It was evident early on that it was going to be two against one as Martha Rattazz pounded Ryan and interrupted him constantly if Biteme didn’t do it first.When he did,she just let him do it.Ryan kept his composure and acted like an adult while Crazy Uncle Joe was a complete jerk.This was intentional because his aim was to fire up the base.You know,the low-rent knuckle dragging morons who think lighting their own farts is funny as hell.Tingles was so excited I’d bet he had a chubby just thinking about  Plugs pummeling the kid.

Obviously,most of the links today are related and I’m posting the entire debate on this thread for anybody who wants to see it.It was less of a debate and more of a campaign filibuster.At the end of the day,the country saw exactly who and what this administration is.

THE WEDNESDAY GRUDGE

Posted by Pistol Pete

Chrissy or Bob:I had some success posting images by right-clicking to open a new window,uploading images and inserting into post.Now the scans will upload but won’t insert.Any expertise you might share would be much appreciated.When it comes to techie stuff I’m as sharp as a bowling ball.

Pete, I WISH I had a clue why it isn’t working for you. :o/. I found them in the gallery, click Show then Insert into Post and they loaded. The only things I can think to try are to dump your cache and do a cold reboot of your computer. I can tell you how if you use Firefox. One of my “usually works fine” things got all wonky and a techie told me to do that. It removed whatever had gotten corrupted and reloaded the original clean versions that had worked before. Chrissy P.S., I LOVE the Spongebob cartoon!! LOL

THANKS,CHRISSY!!! ITS GREAT TO HAVE FRIENDS WHO ‘KNOW HOW TO DO THINGS.’ I LOVED THE SPONGBOB ONE,TOO.ITS ONE OF MY GRANDAUGHTERS’ FAVORITE CARTOONS.(I GET A KICK OUT OF THE SUBTLE SATIRE TOO)

IKWYM about the “for adults” stuff. LOL My dds looooooved The Little Mermaid and watched it so often when they were young that we all had chunks of it memorized. One college break, our youngest went on a nostalgia binge, re-watching golden oldies, including TLM. I remember her repeatedly saying, “I don’t remember THAT!” LOL All those jokes they put in to keep the grown-ups amused went over her head when she was little. Remembering how shocked she was at some of the double entendres and by-play still makes me giggle. 🙂
