A Fun Moment At The Auto Parts Store Today
Posted by ThomWV on Wed Sep-03-08 07:06 PM

I had to run into town to buy some sandpaper. I went to the auto parts store. The place is owned and staffed by rabid Republicans. They have a TV on the counter with FOX on all day long. They've been needling' my ass for years but have toned it down a good bit lately. They may be stupidified but they are not brain dead. So this afternoon I was in there and I paid for my sandpaper at about the same time one of the FOX announcers said something wonderful about Ms. Palin. I just laughed out loud and then in a nicely raised voice for all to hear I said "can you believe that idiotic Republican Party? Look at that clown they picked for the VP slot. The woman ain't qualified to run the PTA and there she is just one heart attack away from being put in charge of atom bombs and running this country" Then I laughed again - BwaHahahahahaha! And they all just hung their heads nodding in agreement. They know ...

The Republican Party is toast.

A governor with an 80-percent approval rating isn't qualified to run the PTA?

What logic-challenged planet do these people live on?

     As I have previously said, this is a fantasy based on a completely ordinary and mundane transaction at a hardware store.

     Here's my story for the day: I saw a car with an Obama sticker on the bumper, and I wished that the driver would drive into a wall and bleed to death waiting for help.

     See how easy that is, DU?

Give me a freakin break,I worked in a NAPA store for twelve years and like everyone else here has been in numerous retail stores and not once have seen a TV on the counter.

The last thing an employer would want is staff watching TV all day long. :whatever:

If anyone is interested the sandpaper sold at an auto parts store is for body work,file board,DA discs or 8x11 wet or dry... not general purpose although could be used for that I guess.
Kind of a waste I would think.

Remember, the mountain man primitive is into hot cars and really big gas-guzzling pick-up trucks that burn diesel and Vanderbilt-class boats.

The mountain man primitive is 62 years old--give or take a year either way--and in his youth so very long ago, when he became a rabid Kennedyite--John the Father, Bobby the Christ, and Vast Teddy the Holy Spirit.

The mountain man primitive fancies himself an "atheist," but really he isn't, not with that line-up.

The mountain man primitive's primary obsession--he's nuts about it--is with "free medical care for all."

The mountain man primitive was an early hippie; the sorts of people who never thought they would grow old and decrepit.

Well, now the hippies are, and while the mountain man primitive seems to understand he can't be young forever, he thinks "free medical care for all" could at least keep him alive forever.

Obama, Palin, and Their Sixteen Years of Experience
by Matt Mayer

Let me get this straight. Senator Barack Obama is qualified to be the President of the United States, but Governor Sarah Palin is unqualified to be the Vice President of the United States. In what can only be considered the “hey kettle” comment of the campaign, Senator Obama’s spokesman noted upon hearing about Senator John McCain’s selection of Governor Palin: “Today, John McCain put the former mayor of a town of 9,000 with zero foreign policy experience a heartbeat away from the presidency.” This statement comes from the party that a mere twelve hours before had nominated a former state legislator from the south side of Chicago with zero foreign policy experience for the presidency. That is rich.

The fact of the matter is that both Senator Obama and Governor Palin can claim twelve years of elected office experience since 1992.
>>>snip

Over the course of these ten years, especially the six as Mayor of Wasilla, Palin presided over a $6 million budget and a staff of 80 city employees. Wasilla is home to an estimated 1,100 businesses, including steel fabrication, agricultural, manufacturing, and distribution companies. During Mayor Palin’s tenure, Wasilla experienced one of the strongest employment expansions in the state of Alaska.

>>>snip

As Governor of Alaska, Governor Palin presides over a $6.6 billion budget and thousands of state employees. She is the only governor in America that shares a border with Russia and Canada, which requires some foreign policy experience given the thawing of the Arctic Ice and the current race by the U.S., Canada, and Russia to claim the now available oil and gas deposits. Because Alaska is a vital energy producing state, Governor Palin quickly has earned her stripes in advancing an energy agenda that helps free the U.S. from its dependence on foreign oil. She spurred the development of a new pipeline from Alaska to the continental United States. As Governor, she traveled to the Middle East to gain a better perspective on the issues there and to support America’s troops in Iraq, including her oldest son.

As the CEO of Wasilla and Alaska, there was/is no decision above Governor Palin’s pay grade.

>>>snip

First, Senator Obama spent 3 years practicing law as a civil right lawyers and part-time law professor. He did not manage a budget or employees in either position.

>>>snip

Next, Senator Obama was elected to the Illinois State Senate in 1996 to represent the south side of Chicago. At most, Senator Obama oversaw a handful of staffers and a small office budget. As a state senator, Senator Obama focused his time and attention on social welfare issues. In eight years, Senator Obama famously voted “present” 130 times, or over sixteen times per year.

>>>snip

In 2004, Senator Obama ran for the U.S. Senate, and won. Just as with the Illinois State Senate, Senator Obama oversees a handful of staff and a small office budget.

>>>snip

So, at a time when wasteful spending pervades Washington, D.C., oil and gas prices are too high, reform is desperately needed, Russia is invading a democratic neighbor, partisanship is at an all-time high, and economic growth is anemic, who has the experience to make a real difference? Over the last 16 years, Governor Palin, having lived her life a missiles throw from the Soviet Union and a resurgent autocratic Russia, has managed anywhere from $6 million to $6.6 billion and thousands of employees, lowered taxes, grew the economy, enhanced America’s energy supplies, reformed government, took on her own party, and added 4 children to her family. During that same time, Senator Obama practiced and taught law, voted on legislation, and ran for the presidency.
