Seems folks here in Deadwood have alot to offer on the subject of politics. It's all over the place in so many threads its hard for a hoople like me to find it all.
So i thought maybe if there was a single thread for political opinion and debate it might be easier to indulge in reading it.
I hope so anyways cause some of the stuff I've read in here has all the promise of a good Sunday morning pundit throw down. But a lot fuckin wittier and funnier.
Thanks.

CNN is pissed off at FOX, running commercials about how Fox distorts, not reports. And yet, CNN is complicit in maintaining that some sort of huge, angry, uprising is taking place in the middle of the country when the simple fact is that the same people who voted for Palin are still pissed off over losing.

I think of Rahm as a backroom guy, swift, silent, deadly. We're not supposed to see him.

I believe in the intelligence,devotion to his country and general competence of the President...but the wars go on,Globalisation is running rampant and "...the Worst are filled with a passionate intensity..."when you hunker down and say "A Plague on Both Your Houses" that helps the Fascists but when you take to the barricades...well,it gets minimal improvement at best...so...I can understand the President NOT getting down in the gutter with the Hate Radio crowd...but their lies are setting the agenda and playing Defense alone is not going to accomplish what is needed...I keep reading about what a Tough Guy Rahm is, but this Acting Presidential Strategy is playing into the hands of those who want to bring this country down...

True. Very true. Plus, the friend threw up all over the place.

Truman Capote used to call the two of them "Johnny & Clyde."

Judging from the titles, the porn available from my cable provider all seems to be of the straight variety, and appears to be all about demeaning its subject matter. The GOP would like that. It's angry like them.

I liken it to dragging a very large, drunk friend from your car to his/her house...in the dark...in the rain. Seems like you'll never get there.

With the mess he inherited and after eight disastrous years in which Republicans got to have their policies in place, I'll be hugely grateful if he gets half of this accomplished.

Excellent thinking, Rapid !
So is homosexual porn for homosexual men or homosexual women?
edited to add..... Eccles appears to be the only really logical thinker in Oklahoma.

It might be that Michael Schwartz is actually Sen Tom Coburn's (R-OK) Chief of Penis Studies.
There may be some truth, these "people"(Tea Bag Brains, Sarah-Sarah types, Joe the unlicensed Plumbers, Glenn Becks, Addison Graves, with all the rest of the tight'tee right'tees) are hatched out of an alien.
Back to work ..
Cheers !!

"My Homer is not a communist. He may be a liar, a pig, an idiot, a communist, but he is not a porn star." - Grandpa
Last night I was surfing on the internet
Speeding through cyber space (you've got mail)
I was in a chatroom, wound up in an adult site
Oh my god I recognize that face
Grandpa he's a pornstar
He's an internet cyber stud
Grandpa he's a pornstar
Check out his little butt
He's on Geritol
He's shooting blanks, 80 years old (oh)
Look he's fallen and he can't get up
Can't get it up, get down
With your bad self
Find a trapeez, no BVDs
Crack that whip
Don't break a hip
Check out his funky hip gyration
He must be taking his medication
Grandpa's so hot he smokes
If he keeps it up he'll have a stroke
