“… she’s Barbie.”
And he had her over 4 seasons.
She’s for sell if you want her.
six votes?? this one had six votes when it went up…
It’s Anti-McCain- you should be used to that by now!
If anything, this lol suggests that McCain would know what he is referencing and would know what he is doing with that gesture. It strikes me as allowing for some cultural savvy that would otherwise be lacking. I would put this one in the WIN column for your side.
Second that.
Well, that’s not the point, I thought the lol with the most votes is what goes up on the front page. This one had 6 votes when I first saw it, I’ve seen them with over 30 votes on the voting page but those never show up. So my conclusion is, these do not show up on the first page strictly from the amount of votes, there are other factors.
I sent an e-mail to the site asking what the criteria was for actually making past the voting page. Here is the reply I got, “Once you create a lol, it goes straight to our voting widget (the vote section of our site) and there, users will be able to vote on your lol. It’s only shown a certain number of times, so that means you may not see your own lol on the voting page. And once your lol has reached that certain number, it’s moved out of the voting system and the votes are tallied. If your lol has high votes and ratings, it will be then moved to the main site.” I would so love to know what that ‘certain number’ is, because of the LOL’s I’ve submitted, one has made it to voting (that I saw anyway). If you want to see the one’s I’ve submitted, just click on my name.
I’ve made 190 lols.
190.
I think maybe six have made it to the front page. MAYBE. It’s the law of averages and your willingness to keep at it.
It also helps if people think they are funny. I’ve been lucky a couple times!
I don’t think that there have been 190 good LOLs in the history of this web site.
Maybe you are more impressive than the whole of the web site put together and you should have your own site. Maybe you’re not and 190 is a silly number of LOLs for you to TRY to submit without some of them being really bad.
Oh some of them stink up the joint; I’m surprised we don’t have gas masks! THE POINT I was trying to make is that people complaining that their LOLs don’t get picked for Political Reasons are just being silly. LOLs don’t get picked because there are a huge number of LOLs to go through and no one is ever going to see all of them. Unless you click on someone’s name and go to their profile page, you will not see what they have done. I’ve now made 200 and have had a ball doing it!
Well, I do think their site is a giant mess as far as programming goes (I’m a web developer myself). They basically took Word Press and tried to make a hot or not-styled site out of it – which worked at first, but once you get into users with their own content and alpha-voting (to decide who goes on the front page) … that kind of foundation is just terrible. I’ve submitted a few and was just checking the voting widget out to see if I could find it IMMEDIATELY after and a few times throughout the day. Sure, I stumbled into the same damn pictures over and over, but never the one I had submitted. In my line of work, we call this JANKETY.
It really needs to be re-built from the ground up…with their specific needs in mind as well as a flexible foundation to help for future development. The site is not very scalable – but I do give them props for getting as far as they have.
I think he’s uh.. waving.
Shut up! For real? Next you’ll be telling me that cat wasn’t really on an invisible bike!
There was a duplicate of this lol on the voting pages. Every lol receives at least 100 votes and it doesn’t go front page unless it’s got at least a 40+% thumbs up rating. This particular lol had about a 52% thumbs up rating.
There is no preference given by our staff to any candidate on Pundit Kitchen.
Just more Obama supporters frequent here, I guess. Or, is this a random selection of individuals? Could we be representative of the entire population? Could it mean that there are more Obama supporters than McCain supporters in the nation, then? PK calls the election for Barack Obama! You heard it here first!
I don’t think Obama supporters had anything to do with it. More like Star Wars fans and we are legion!!!!
the 501st legion?
Man, what we do to the candidates themselves is bad enough without dragging their families into it as well. Decency fail.
C’mon, at least they aren’t calling her a trollop! This one made me giggle because I’m a nerd.
me too
and me…
Giggled too, I did.
Oh my sweet FSM. You’re calling a decency fail in reference to the guy who publicly pimped his wife to a bunch of sweaty bikers? The guy who got a public endorsement from Daddy Yankee, whose big hit “Gasolina” is a reference to semen? The guy who systematically cheated the Navajo Nation out of mineral leases in the 70s when he was governor of Arizona? Please.
Nope, McCain himself is fair game. Just leave his wife and other family out of it. As you note, there is PLENTY of material there.
Well, since he’s treated his wives so shabbily, I think his private life is pertinent as a reflection of his personal ethics.
So we should bring Jeremiah Wright and all that lovely congregation into this as well right? Private life, meaning church you attend is a reflection of personal ethics
If you’re argument had any logic, that would me obama hates white people.
Fail.
Ummm…. Obama is half white…
Lots of white people hate whites. Michael Pfleger, for example, is a white preacher at Jeremiah Wright’s racist church, and his racist diatribe against Hillary Clinton was what finally pushed Obama to ‘resign’ from that church.
Intelligence fail, though not your first.
Pfleger is a Catholic priest, not Proddy preacher, who was invited to Wright’s church; he is not a regular member of the congregation.
As a result of his little rant, he did receive reprimand from the Bishop, before you think otherwise.
Not the point, durrr.
Didn’t change my name back from before. >_o
If YOUR spelling had any logic, it would MEAN Obama hates white people. Which isn’t that hard.
Dayum! There’s so much fail coming out of that comment, I don’t know where to start! To beat a grammar dick with his own ego-wang, “Which isn’t that hard.: is a fragment. The rest of your post I’ll leave to be picked apart by someone else.
Yes he has treated his wives shabbily, they’ve had enough abuse, so they don’t need any more from us.
I will admit though, I did laugh a bit at this one.
OK I will say to leave Mrs. Obama out of it too. If you ask me Wives influence their husbands so they do have a little to do with it.
BTW I was saying if you say to leave her out then why don’t we all say to leave Mrs. Obama out too.
That would only make sense, I’d say. I think the people saying “LEAVE CINDY ALONE” would more than likely agree with that sentiment, too – unless of course they are all dicks.
Ahem. McCain was never governor of Arizona.
I don’t know about the ‘Sweaty Bikers’ incident you speak of, so maybe you can site some reference? As for the other crapola you mention, 1) he didn’t ask for the endorsement, it was freely given. 2) in case you’re interested in who was Governor of Arizona in the 70’s here’s a link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Governor_of_Arizona
During the Sturgis rally, he lamented that on the flier there was a “beauty pageant” listed, but Cindy didn’t want to compete although, he told her, she be be the first First Lady to also have been crowned Miss Buffalo Chip. Nobody told McCain that the Miss Buffalo Chip pageant includes a topless revue and a *ahem* talent portion (involving a banana). Either he was completely clueless or he was whoring his wife to the masses.
Interestingly enough, the week before he’d been bashing Obama, claiming that his energy policy was nothing more than making certain tire pressure was up. John said this sniggeringly to a group of bikers (who understand the importance of good tire pressure) to little support. The next day he dropped that bit from his shtick.
I wrote a freakin’ long piece regarding this, but for whatever reason, it didn’t post.
Long story short: at the Sturgis Bike Rally, McCain suggested that Cindy participate in the Miss Buffalo Chip “beauty pageant” (his term). Either he didn’t know that the contest involves a topless routine, a bit of bare-assing, and simulating fellatio on a banana, or he was making another disparage towards her.
Since being admitted to the Union, Arizona has had 25 Governors. Of those 25, 16 had been Democrat and 9 Republican. So, if the Navajo Nation has been systematically cheated, I would suggest (but can’t prove) that it was probably a Democrat. Further to that, as mentioned, McCain was never Governor.
The humour’s in the ol’ Jedi-Mind-Trick gesture. Calling Ms McCain a ‘droid <> doesn’t really strike me as a decency fail: it’s not exactly a crushing insult, is it?
I agree. And often, she comes off a little Stepford Wife-ish.
Replace a few words (’She’s’ for ‘These are’ and pluralise ‘droid’) and you’ve got a movie quote. It’s nothing more than that, people – it’s not an insult at all.
By implication, this LOL is making Cindy into either C3-PO or R2-D2 and John as Obi-Wan Kenobi. That’s not exactly a bad thing, there.
Yeah, Obi-Wan’s the most kick-arse old guy around. THE most kick-arse in the series if you don’t count the cheap “Anakin is God” cop-out the movies pull.
I agree, I pretty much <3 Obi-Wan.
“Obama’s Babymama” is just ducky though right?
JUst as ducky as all the smears against Cindy McCain on this site.
“Trollop”. “Droid”. “Ageing Barbie”. “Vampire”. All of these made it to the front page of Pundit Kitchen.
Stay classy, liberals.
Says the biggest user of “Obama’s babymama”
You wouldn’t know class if it ripped your head off and shat in your throat.
(using the word SHAT makes that sound British and therefore classy)
Don’t worry- we’ll never mistake you for classy!
Back at you … and all your lovely little racial digs and gun toting ways.
Where did you get a racial dig from that?
His favorite older submissions were “Half Honkey all Donkey” and he spoke of radical black rioting when B-HO loses “snick snick he’s loading his clips” and many others that I can’t recall well enough to list. If you are really interested you can post stalk him cntrl-f hueydoc on any Obama lol and most McCain ones. I am sure you will see plenty of examples.
Is THAT how you do that? Thanks!!
Still no favorite button… has that gone the way of the dinosaur?
Ok, but his comment was to you, not about Obama.. I understand what you’re saying, but I still don’t see the connection.
AAhh- so now your into post stalking conservatives who disagree with you—VERY scary!!!
No need to stalk, you are just a regular. We all know you and your unctuous nature.
Jellybeans little threat there is downright sociopathic. Would you like being post-stalked ? I think this is reportable- it goes WAY over the line!
You post on here to be heard, right? What’s wrong with someone going back and reading what you had to say? If you believe you had really good points to make, I think you’d encourage it!
Overreact much? The best way to argue with someone is to be informed. Being informed about your past statements before getting into an argument with you is smart, not scary. I just don’t have the patience to comb through old posts like Jellybeans does. It’s not like she’s calling you up and asking you to play Misty for her.
Clint reference WIN!
And how would you feel if EP posted how to stalk you ? Get in line to goosestep with Jellybeans there! And Jellybean- get some help. Seriously.
PS – You forgot Borg Queen and Crypt Keeper.
and “Cunt”- that one was on the vote page…
Liberals. Pure class all the way.
Who was it who called her a cunt? I didn’t think it was a liberal. I thought it was her husband.
No, it was the author of an anti-McCain book who lied.
Oh, no, you can’t blame that word on us. That was *McCain’s* word for her. In public. In front of reporters…
Evidence?
http://rawstory.com/news/2008/McCain_temper_boiled_over_in_92_0407.html
I do believe that John was the first to call her a “cunt.” We’re just following by example. That’s what leaders are supposed to be for right? Lead by example? In case you missed that juicy little tidbit, he called her a “trollop” in the same sentence, maybe you should look it up.
I’ve looked it up. The only source for that claim is one author’s hostile biography.
In other words, it’s probably a lie.
(Jerome Corsi didn’t write it in his blog, then cite the blog as fact for a book, therefore it must a fabrication of the liberal Jew-run media)
You’re a nut.
*In angry and dejected voice*
Well… well… you’re a LEGUME!
Ha, beat that!
.
She actually does kinda look like the borg queen you know.
She introduced him once as my baby’s dady… why is that ok?
I mean I did…
For the same reason that if I called my sis a bitch and then you called her a bitch I would kick your butt for doing it.
Would you call your sis a bitch in a speech during an important political campaign if you didn’t want everyone else calling her a bitch too? Or make it seem like it was ok to call here a bitch? That’s just wrong.
I get the feeling you think I’m a McCain partisan. That would be an erroneous assumption. I am merely of the opinion that attacks on candidates are fine, but bringing their families into it is wrong. Thus, no, “Obama’s Babymama” is not ducky in the slightest.
Standards, people. Have some.
I would agree with that. However, if the the candidates spouse is of questionable character then they’re fair game as well.
I think that they sign up for this when the spouses run. I don’t think people should make fun of the kids because they have no say but spouses should be ready to stand up and take it.
They become political machines themselves. Cindy is in Georgia right now … coinciding with DNC – coincidence? Nope. Also, the attacks happened when the Obamas were on Vacation which allowed McCain to claim some spotlight.
Putin is claiming that it was American engineered to help one candidate win … who benefited from the coverage? I am not saying I believe Putin without proof but it does lend to speculation.
It’s not beyond possibility that the current administration would wag the dog a bit to make McCain look good, but I think that gives them too much credit. From what I could tell Bush was taken aback by the whole mess.
Like they say, he’s either a dolt or an evil genius, but he can’t be both. I tend to come down on the side of him being a dolt. Most of his minders have slipped away. Uncle Karl’s gone, Rummy before him, Ashcroft before that. He’s got Condi and Uncle Dick left. Condi is abroad (pun -fully- intended) most of the time, and Cheney has very little use left for Bush. In a few months’ time, I doubt Cheney will even return Bush’s calls.
I just had the most pitiful (but hilarious) picture run through my head…Bush sitting all forlorn beside an old, beat up white phone, muttering “but he used to call, I used to be his favorite…” then a lone tear…
I seriously LOLed at that one. Could also picture him sitting by said phone saying “But, I thought he LIKED me”
Ha! Good image. Maybe we’ll see it on the front page here in a few months.
It doesn’t have to be Bush, just any repugs that want their candidate in and care more about oil than they do about a few thousand deaths … which could be ALL OF THEM.
Don’t forget where the pipelines are. We have gone to war for oil before, we are in a war for oil now. Let’s add continued Repug power on top of oil and what do you get? WAR! YAY!
Out of Obama and McCain who benefits from war? McCain.
Out of Barak and Obama who claims war as a strong point in their campaign? McCain.
Out of Obama and McCain who would kill a couple thousand people to secure oil rights? McCain.
Out of Obama and McCain who was in Washington through the cold war and seems to be pushing for a resurrection? McCain
And let us not forget that it was the Democrats that allowed 50,000 of our soldiers to die in Vietnam because they wanted to run the war THEIR way (thanks LBJ). And that it was the Democrats that got us there in the first place. So say what you will about Republicans, but the Democrats have plenty of blood on their hands to atone for. And for the record, it was a Republican Administration that ended the Cold War in the first place!
But that was then. We have a chance to change what’s going on now, no matter what your affiliation.
“Those Who Forget History Are Doomed to Repeat It” – You can’t slough off what has happened just because it doesn’t fit into your preconceptions of how you want things to be.
I’m not sloughing it off. I’m saying we can do what we can to NOT repeat it. There will always be fighting in the region, and right now, we’re putting our men and women in the way.
I would agree.. I just don’t see Obama as the guy to lead us there. I’m not in favor of war, but I am in favor of protecting our interests and building the reputation of the United States back up. I’m just afraid Obama will sell out to get us there.
And I see McCain as a little too ready to instigate, which isn’t the way America should go, in my opinion. But, let’s both go and vote our hearts in November, cause we both want the same ends.
If he wins, you might be surprised. McCain has never been afraid to ‘buck tradition’ when it comes to the party line.
Which is why quite a few conservatives don’t like him. And that makes me very sad. &@#% partisan politics!
Reagan is given a lot of credit for “ending” the cold war, but I’m more of the opinion that it just happened to end on his watch. The factors that led to the fall of the Soviet Union were in motion before his tenure. I do give him credit for accelerating the process though, by spending the bastards into the ground.
Now though, it’s looking like the cold war was merely on hiatus. Maybe a cold war isn’t the kind of thing you can “win” permanently. Maybe “war” is just the wrong word for it. (Kind of like the “war” on drugs, poverty, etc.)
Perhaps the Cold War could be “Keeping up with the Joneses/Kolishnikovs?”
“it was a Republican Administration that ended the Cold War in the first place!”,
- and a Communist administration. Let’s not forget.
Huh? How was Reagan’s Administration Communist? The fact is, Reagan outspent the Russians in defense. They just couldn’t keep up economically and he basically kept his promise to destroy the evil empire. The fact that Putin is ex-KGB, hence Communist, in fact does mean Communism has been in hiatus in Russia. But think about this, do you honestly believe that the Russian Mob is going to give control back so easily? I wouldn’t be the least but surprised if there are assasination attempts on Putin.
Communism in the Soviet Union was destined to fail from day one. All Reagan did was expedite it. Besides, is he the ONLY one who did anything to bring about the end of the cold war? Giving credit to Reagan for ending the cold war is like giving credit to the football player who kicks the winning goal at the end of the game. Sure, his efforts at the end secured the victory, but if not for everybody elses efforts, that last goal would have been essentially meaningless.
Ok, there certainly were others who did their part. The truth is SDI scared the crap out of them and the spent themselves into the whole trying to keep up.
grammar error: They spent themselves into the HOLE trying to keep up.
Not doubting that Reagan did play a significant part in it. AND you have to give props to anyone who names a major government program “Star Wars”
ASAT.. how’s that? And for the uninitated, Anti-Satellite missles launched from an F-15. It was actually quite successful, just expensive as hell. Also, there’s still remnants of SDI still going strong.
Hey! What happened to the favorite button??!!??
Okay, I found the add to favorites button by going to slackertarian’s page and searching for the lol there. Is this a new feature or is the page buggy?
This is wordpress – the pages are *always* buggy.
For the first time in my adult life I can honestly say, I’m really proud of PunditKitchen.com.
Hmmm – does this mean they are suggesting that McCain is a Jedi Master?
That’s something of a compliment now, isn’t it?
I believe “Sith Lord” would be the more fitting term, but obviously his force skills are lacking…we can still see she is an android covered by a thin and very leatherish looking skin cover.
Is that John ‘Bergerac’ Nettles in the back row?
She’s such a bobble head. Booooooring.
What an awful photo. She looks like a man.
For some reason this photo reminds me of this:
Miracle Max
Seems a little reminiscent of The Princess Bride to me…
http://www.imdb.com/media/rm3000932608/tt0093779
why aren’t my comments showing up?!
dammit. click on my name… seems a little reminiscent of The Princess Bride to me (I surely hope this doesn’t show up 800 times with different wording… my apologies if it does!)
Funny. She does look VERY stepford.
He looks more like the Sith Lord than Obi Wan. Regardless, Star Wars Win.
I lol’d
I submitted this LOL along with dozens of others over the past few days (as I am new here) I was just glad to see a couple of them make it to the homepage, thanks to all who gave a good vote. Glad I could make you LOL
For the record, I am completely non-partisan, and I have no agenda. I’m just a lover of freedom. This means that no politico is safe from the likes of me, I’ll make fun of everyone.
Check the profile, you’ll see what I mean.
Oh, THAT’S the secret. Ok, everyone overwhelm with LOL’s! I was starting to wonder if I was just hated..
wonder no longer
You are depriving some village of an idiot.
he’s got small turtle like hands!
That made me go “awwww!” Stop that!
you guys do realize cindy mccain is a licensed drift racer?
like in tokyo drift.
well, she actually went to japan to train.
she’s a lot more badass than the US-hate robot michelle obama
