Mid-Day Palate Cleanser
— Ace

From LauraW, or how she drunkenly spells it, "@laurww."

I admire her refusal to correct that. I don't like correcting misspellings either.

Then again, I try to get my own name right.

But I Can Still Sneak In The 1 PM Gallup Update: Romney +1 from yesterday, 49-47 with likely voters.

Don't if this was mentioned, from Buzzfeed"

So why hasnÂ’t [Benghazi] yet captured the collective media mind? Republican critics make the case that itÂ’s the pro-Obama main-stream media at work again, and the Republican National Committee has kept up a steady stream of product, making the case that Benghazi should be a much bigger issue.

And they might have a point Â— more than a few members of the media covering the story have privately wondered whether the widespread editorial disinterest can be chalked up to Big MediaÂ’s preference for Obama.

Certainly, it's hard to imagine that under a Bush administration it would be treated the same. If this kind of catastrophic attack Â— and cover-up Â— had happened in 2004 or 2008, it would have likely dominated presidential debates and re-shaped election coverage.

He was animated and clearly flabbergasted at the administrationÂ’s reaction. Â“It baffles me that the vice president of the United States would continue to say things that donÂ’t square with the facts on the ground, Â“ he said in reference to VP Joe BidenÂ’s remarks in the debate Thursday night. He reiterated, Â“There was no protest. There was no reaction to the [anti-Muslim video], and they knew it in 24 hours. I donÂ’t understand what they are doing.Â” http://tinyurl.com/9enrq2g

I'm patting myself on the back for doing a political phone survey last night. I figure I speak for thousands when I do that, and the polls can help the fund-raising.

This one sounded like it was being done by the Republican trying to unseat our House member (it's tied up in the polls). There were a couple of questions that were kind of biased, about ObamaCare.

Interestingly, they asked whether I had heard of various politicians, and whether I had a favorable or unfavorable view of them: Obama, Biden, Romney, Ryan, my House member, her opponent. They also asked things like how interested I was in the election, how likely to vote, etc.

They also wanted to know how I was going to vote for Pres and Congress (Senate and House).

So I gave them an earful of good news, and actually thanked the survey taker at the end.

My comment to the lying NPR:

Biden told two "whoppers", contrary to NPR reporting this morning. One - about his votes on Iraq and Afghanistan - was an outright lie. The the second was that the White House ("We") didn't know about the facts of the terrorist attacks when we claimed it was a video - has been refuted by the WH itself this morning, with the special twist that most in the lapdog media are now allowing them to claim that Biden was referring only to himself.

Oh yeah, I forgot, Biden is an habitual user of the the regal "we", as in "Today, we once again demonstrate that no lie is so egregious that we cannot escape from it unscathed and unbothered, as we have the lapdog media correcting them for us as one of the key competencies of their trade, much as a whore might, unasked, routinely perform various sexual services for her pimp to remain in good standing."

The way that he said it, implied that a lot of people were getting sloshed.

Apparently, they were giving away bottles of Bourbon...and there were complementary kegs set up.

Kinda strange, for a political debate.

When did WW III start?
Might have been 1983 Beirut, Lebanon.
1979, Teheran, Iran.

1972 Munich

Posted by: Brandon In Baton Rouge at October 12, 2012 01:42 PM (e0xKF) How come that's not in the news? --- It was a Yemeni who had been working with us for around 20 years. No one could confirm what he did, but he was likely the local head of security.

195 Watched on Xbox live, don't know who they accredit those ratings to. It wasn't split screen but the camera always had both of them in sight unless it was one of Bidens shitty attempts to pan to his left for his close up shots.

198 All of the breathless, idiotic arguments the dems are resorting to in defending Biden are not hurting Ryan one bit.

That's just the thing. Ryan did his job. He got the facts out there, showed himself as serious and sober, everything that Biden is not. That's all he really had to do. To anyone who already knows the facts (even sort of) Ryan won in a landslide. To LIVs, it may be a more narrow decision, either way.

But, today, no one is talking about Ryan. They're all talking about Biden. And they're not saying (with the exceptions of some trolls) "Oh, man, Biden won!" They're saying, "Oh, crap, what did he say?"

The whole day has been given over to trying to "defend," "explain," and walk-back one answer to one question.

199 the media can put out all the "economy is gaining steam" stories they want, people's minds are made up - and it is not in Obama's favor. Apparently, the media forgets that when Bush I was running for reelection, we were coming out of a recession with a 5% growth rate. It did not save him, and the media will not save Obama either.

frank luntz interviewed a panel of low information voters / independents
/ biden bus-mates. Sometimes I wonder if we need a poll tax or some
kind of intelligence test, those people should not be allowed out alone
much less given a vote.

Keep the chad holes round, but give them a choice of trying to use 4 different shaped pegs, and a five minute limit. That should eliminate about half of them from voting.

203 It doesn't matter that Biden lied about voting for both the Afghanistan and Iraq war. The truth is relative and subjective. He spoke the truth that he needed in that moment and I am proud of him.

Exactly. People have made up their minds and didn't waste their time. All Joe Biden did last night was piss people off (see Catholics) or convince everyone but hard-core Democrats that he's crazy.

216 ObamaÂ’s election strategy has collapsed, says Romney camp as their man begins to believe

It is a freezing cold autumn night in Ohio, but as an expectant crowd gathers under one of the Buckeye state's famous big skies it is suddenly evident that Mitt Romney's new-found bounce isn't confined to the opinion polls.

From the Telegraph.

Rather fair, though he tries to rain on the parade with a bit about how many people don't have a yard sign. There's a reason they don't even though they are willing to take time off from work to attend a political rally.

217 Damn. My cuz never made it on cops, but he did make the papers. Authorities on Friday arrested a man who they said walked into the First Commonwealth Bank on Station Street in Bridgeville and put a device down, saying it was a bomb. Police said Sean Fite, 42, of Bridgeville, took off with an undisclosed amount of cash, leaving the Â“activating deviceÂ” behind. Officials evacuated the bank while bomb squad members worked to figure whether the device was a bomb. According to police, the so-called bomb was actually a stick of deodorant duct-taped to batteries. Police plan to charge Fite with robbery, terroristic threats and risking a public catastrophe, among other charges. Seriously.

218 48 Hey, where are all the trolls? I thought they be here for sure en masse "parroting" about how Biden won...
=======
Because they know he lost.
Oh, they were slapping each other on the back last night, having a good ol' time.
But this morning, instead of "Biden Crushes Ryan" headlines, all they got were, "Biden is an Ass" headlines.

They know, deep down (though they won't admit it) that Gore's sighing lost him the Presidency.
And they know, deep down, that this was way, way worse than a few impolite sighs.

By this afternoon, or Sunday, you watch, the media will be trying to change the subject.

And that is how you'll know that they know Biden was a Hindenburg Disaster.
