"We communicate honestly and sensitively."
"Program Director Rod Arquette, said in jest at the full-staff pep talk, "... now all we have to do is finish off the KOMO homos."
So, is that the honest part or the sensitive part.

Foreign Nations - who publicly celebrated the election of Obama because a weaker America means a stronger Germany, Poland, France, Russia, etc. - reveal their real thoughts about America's first Muslim president and the mindset of "superior European culture" to which American liberals aspire.
Following racist comments by Poland's Foreign Minister about Sultant al-Hussein Obama, the brother of Poland's president and leader of the ruling party told party officials that Obama's election was "a catastrophe, and the end of white people's civilization."

I think KIRO/Bonneville is as afraid of 'D' as KVI/Fisher is afraid of Carleen. Just sayin.

Hey Gary,
How come you don't go by Puget Sound anymore?
Posted by: Willow | November 18, 2008 at 02:56 PM
Is Puget Sound the place to hang out or something? I live on the eastside, anyway.

Mungo... I couldn't have said it better!!
And as for their true feelings....what's that they say about "putting your money where your mouth is"???

Good news, gang.
While the liberal leadership plays smoke and mirrors with their constituents over whether or not XYZ should be called "partnership" or "marriage", the Big 3 bailout is on the verge of failure, which will lead to the immediate loss of 3 million jobs, or - in other words - push US unemployment past 10% by the end of al-Hussein's first year in office, the worst level since 1933.
Who could have scripted this better? This will literally be the fastest D administration in history. 2 years of Democratic control followed by a decades-long Republican death-grip. We just need to hold out and filibuster every attempt at economic recovery as long as possible. Sabotage everything. Burn the muthafucka economy down!
This course and pattern has been seen before, oh so many times. Do libs never read history? Such an exciting time to be alive! Here's to soup lines, riots and a generalized sense of misery!

Why you doing a 'spload-e-dope on the heads of these guys, Gary?
You know as well as I that we do not have to do anything but stand back and watch. When Pelosi, Reid and Schumer went to start to undermine the economy two years ago, they over played their hand. I believe the term is "FUBR".
Buttah the pop corn, put your feet up and watch the show.
(and I really hope that I am wrong)

(and I really hope that I am wrong)
I don't need that disclaimer - I hope I'm dead-on right!
I also don't care if a generalized economic collapse is the fault of the Democrats or the Republicans. I only care about winning. Whomever gets stuck holding the bag is the loser.
Krishna willing the Democrats will be holding the bag. Whether they or we packed it is irrelevant.

It's perty fucking ironic that an American industry has to be schooled on the concept of fair competition. American auto makers want to suck on the social tit like Airbus. Where's your red baiting now you pinko scumballs?
I have never bought an American car. If the bailout passes I will never buy an American car because they will continue to suck balls. If the bailout fails a lot of overpayed inflexible people who suck at their jobs will be out of one but I will likely one day buy an American car because in theory they might just have to try to keep up with foreign brands.

His ass.
And Gay Gary's ass it telling him to ignore the fact that it is the Republicans and the Bushites who are against the bailout.

I'm thinking that Mike Webb would have been fired for being outspoken about Bonneville and his homosexuality.
Gary gets an F in history.

Errr, Kev - if you'd been paying attention I've been applauding the GOP for opposing the bailout. I've been advocating a scorched earth policy - leave America a smoldering ruins by January 20. Not sure what part of "burn the muthafucka down" you don't understand.
Annnywhooo -- next?

The Nutcases are Taking Over
I previously reported that Obama transition chief, John Podesta, has called for the government to disclose the truth about the "alien conspiracy coverrup" (hehe) ... now CNN is reporting that Mark Begich has won US Senate from Alaska. Mark has famously coordinated with his bro, Nick Bagich, on the book "Angels Don't Play this HAARP", alleging that the USAFs antenna array in Alaska is an attempt to impact global mind control and turn the human species into a slave race (coo-koo!).
Yes, these are really the people who will be bringing their own weird kind of "change!" LMAO!

The Prince of Puerility, Luke Burbank, is on now on KIRO. It's like listening to a 13 year old who is inhabiting a 35 year old man's body.
Posted by: Tommy008 | November 18, 2008 at 07:19 PM
Dr. Nick Begich teamed with Jeanne Manning to write Angels Don't Play This Haarp, the book that exposes the potential dangers (and there are many!) of the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Project in Alaska.
Manning and Begich substantiate their theories and concerns with extensive research, documentation, interviews, and scientific facts. Some of the geopolitical and mega-corporate connections they have uncovered are as frightening as HAARP's possibly disastrous impact upon our planet and our lives.
The military has invested heavily in HAARP. Why?
You won't find the answer by reading Drudge, Gary. This book has very detailed documentation, but since you haven't read the book, you wouldn't know that.

Uh oh, I've angered the black helicopter crowd! (Are you an "abductee", Alaskan reader?)

For purposes of full disclosure, "Dr." Nick's "Doctorate" is in "holistic medicine" from the "Open International University for Complementary Medicines" ... LOL! Too funny! You can't make this stuff up!
