I believe this is the first lengthy tale from the TiTtyboy that does not include mention of his close friendship with nearly all known celebrities. It is, though, no less of a lie, and he has maintained his record of utter dishonesty.

"I cannot vote for these guys." (my only 'pub friend)
I was at a house party last night when I ran into a friend of mine who I will call "Ron" (because his name is Ron). Ron is a rock-ribbed conservative and my only Republican friend (we are friends because he likes my music and we were friends before I knew he was a 'pub).
Ron is a typical upper-class 'pub, kinda (a lot, really) overweight, nerdy glasses, a ton of money, wears his Tommy Bahamas buttoned all the way to the neck and always wears dress shoes and slacks. Ron runs some kind of consulting business, but his explanation of what he does always makes my head hurt.
We were hanging out, drinking Bombay Sapphire Gin out of the freezer, neat, when Ron started talking about the upcoming election. Said he had voted in every election at every level since he was old enough to vote (he is now my age, 55+). Said he voted straight ticket every time because he felt the 'pubs were best for the Country and best for Business.
Then he told me that he had stopped contributing when McCain became the presumptive candidate because he felt that the Country couldn't handle any more of the Bush-style government.
He then went on for some time about Obama, who he referred to as a "Charlatan", and how he thought that Obama's crowd was going to cause a train wreck.
Then he said that with the selection of Palin, he had decided to not vote for the first time in his life. And he said he was completely comfortable with his decision.
He then proceeded to blow me out of my chair (actually, it was a barstool) when he said, "You know, Tom, if Hillary Clinton was the nominee, I would not only support her but I would vote for her".
We were all hanging around with our mouths open, dumbfounded.
How many other "Ron's" are out there?
If this guy has turned, so has the screw.

TomInTib, like retail trinket clerks everywhere, prefers his Bombay Sapphire neat.
TiT flaunts his heresy, taunting the DUmmies:

Welcome, Minervah
And, unfortunately, I am with you on Obama.
When I listen to him speak, my mind screams "Televangelist". He delivers well, but he has yet to convince me that he actually sincerely means any of it.
We donated to Clinton and Edwards, but I cannot justify giving money to this crowd.
I don't trust anyone under 50, anyway.
And I am not going to vote for anyone.

13. I am almost past the point...
of giving a damn, anymore.
I have spent the last thirty years trying to live my life with as little governmental influence as possible.
But I have had it with being lied to.
If Obama is elected (and I seriously doubt that will be allowed to happen), I, for one, will be watching to see who is really pulling the strings.
I truly believe that it has come down to Different Dogs, Same Handlers.
By "Televangelist" I just see his speeches as totally transparent. I don't hear any real substance, just platitudes.
I live in one of the bluest areas in the country (Tiburon, Southern Marin County, CA) and support here is lukewarm, at best.
But I am hoping for the best (or least worst, anyway).
TiT is lucky the DUmp denizens are still weak from the effects of obamus interruptus, administered by Gov. Palin.
Then the heroic TiT of Ice Station Zebra reappears:

26. I post here because....
I hate what the republicans (from Nixon, on) have done to our country.
Pomp and circumstance and cheerleading just bore the shit out of me.
But I will be there when the shooting starts.
I will be there when we are in the streets.
I am not into demoralization.
I just want some solid food and a gun that I can count on.
Barney Fife again pops into my mind. Will anyone give Tom a bullet?

28. I am not urging any kind of no-vote. Where the hell did you get that?
I just don't vote, personally.
But my friends, family and related companies have donated millions of dollars to the Dems this cycle. We do our part.
I live in a precinct that goes over 90% Dem. My vote, even were I to cast one, wouldn't make one bit of difference.
DUmmy azmouse does not realize the peril he places himself in by challenging the mighty TiT, who often killed NVA regulars using only the fingernail of his right ring finger:

17. That ship has sailed and it is time for you to vote Obama or find a new political board.
Your friend is a sad loser and so are you for being proud to sit out this election.
DUmmy azmouse may be a dead man walking, but he has at least made one accurate observation.

At least azmouse is half right.
Tom's "sitting out" the election. Riiiight. Might have something to do with those felonies on his record.

27. You donated to Edwards, and yet you question Obama's sincerity?

Walter Sobchak: You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me.
The Dude: Yeah, but Walter...
Walter Sobchak: Hell, I can get you a toe by 3 o'clock this afternoon... with nail polish. These ****ing amateurs...

Oh no don't get me started on TBL.
Walter Sobchak: Nihilists! **** me. I mean, say what you like about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at least it's an ethos.
Now see what you've done? :-)

Objection your honor! TommyBoy doesn't vote because he is an admitted convicted felon! He has also publically admitted to identity theft with the recent story of using a false identity to get a driver's license. He claims he lives under the identity of a child who died at some point in the past...stealing that child's birth certificate information and using it as his own. He is a total :loser:

It has to be a bitch to vote when you are a multiple convicted felon and you are living under an assumed identity, while working in a gift shop. I really feel for the guy.

Coen brothers = American Genius
I just watched "Barton Fink" a couple of weeks ago, one of their earliest. It was every bit as brilliant as "No Country For Old Men".

Yeah kind of hard to vote when your right to do so was taken away when your stupid ass went to jail for hard time.
