    Kerry Redeploys

    Posted by Andy on 31st October 2006

    The Freepers are saying that Kerry may be pulling out.

    Heads Up! All Scheduled Kerry Functions for 11/1/06 cancelled

    I haven’t been able to confirm, but this pic I came across while there (even if a photoshop) is priceless.

    Gary notes another eerily prescient moment from KvM:  “KvM predicts that Sen. Kerry will be striken with a sudden case of laryngitis before tomorrow’s event with Klobuchar.”

    Captain Ed Morrisey shall from here on be referred to as Fresca Ed.

    I am MOB Mayor, I can do this. I don’t care what his readership is. If John Kerry can be a US Senator, I can rename a NARNer who took down the Canadian Government.

    Halloweeneve Advisory

    Posted by Andy on 31st October 2006

    I will be heading to the Fortress after work tonight. I really don’t want to answer the door 50 times tonight for all the brats to grab candy out of my bowl and run off with out so much as a thanks. So I am going to the bar instead to work on the MOB endorsements. I fully expect to receive loads of grief for this, but hey, I am single and have no kids.

    I did buy candy, but I just really don’t want 50 interruptions tonight. Besides the little twirps always go to the wrong door which make me have to walk even more.

    So anyways. Mark Kennedy is going to be on 100.3 at 5:10 responding to the John Kerry, I am not as stupid as my stupidity statement today regarding our troops.

    Stay tuned. We have the potential for some chick blogging here, not to mention I still have to fisk some of the Senate debate. Oh and get myself ready for the Governor and Senator John McCain are coming to my area tomorrow. I am going to be going to Rochester Thursday evening. And a possible bit of travel this weekend around the state. Oh, and then there is the MPR debate on Sunday night.

    So tonight is the night for MOB endorsements. And Beer!!!!!!

    Memo To MNGOP

    Posted by Andy on 31st October 2006

    Enough with the recut Hatch ads. He’s a scum bag. We get it. Minnesota gets it. It is getting embarrassing. Hatch is not really leading in the polls and besides Pawlenty has plenty of money to defend himself. You’re attacking a man that no one in this state will defend unless they are in a union.

    There is that little race for US Senate however, where someone is literally getting away with murder thanks to the press. You may consider refocussing your energy just a bit. No I don’t mean that lady who ruined her reputation by becoming the sleaziest campaigner in Minnesota history and has damaged her Foundation for missing children’s reputation beyond repair with her lies and nasty tactics. That other one really should be your focus. Everyone already knows everything there is to know about Hatch and Wetterling.

    And another thing. Where the hell is Eric Hoplin? Why is the most energetic and enthusiastic person ever to don a blue blazer, white shirt, and red tie not out there in front of the cameras selling our message? Just what is going on down there?

    PS: If you make an ad about his motor home breaking down, the gloves are really coming off.

    As you were.

    Low Rent

    Posted by Andy on 31st October 2006

    I really don’t think I should comment on this scum bag. Really. If Mass. reelects this windbag piece of crap that shit wipes off its feet, we need to vote them off the island. This guy has no business being in the US Senate.

    Sen. Chaudhary (DFL 50) Inappropriate in front of Teens

    Posted by Andy on 31st October 2006

    State Sen. Satveer Chaudhary (DFL-50) saying he and the Governor are gay lovers in front of a High School audience during a debate.

    Is that really the time and place for that type of silly statement, just to get out of a question?

    For more info go to Boots On.

    Update:
    Now this exchange followed Sen. Chadhary saying he has never heard Tim Pawlenty say the words free tuition before this campaign.

    Great work by the Boots On guys.

    ‘Its the Peace that Sucks’

    Posted by Andy on 30th October 2006

    King points out a great Thomas Sowell piece.

    Free societies have prerequisites, and history has not given all peoples those prerequisites, which took centuries to evolve in the West.

    However we got into Iraq, we cannot undo history–even recent history–by simply pulling out and leaving events to take their course in that strife-torn country. Whether or not we “stay the course,” terrorists are certainly going to stay the course in Iraq and around the world.

    Political spin may say that Iraq has nothing to do with the war on terror, but the terrorists themselves quite obviously believe otherwise, as they converge on that country with lethal and suicidal resolve.

    Whether we want to or not, we cannot unilaterally end the war with international terrorists. Giving the terrorists an epoch-making victory in Iraq would only shift the location where we must face them or succumb to them.

    King finishes this way: “Which is exactly the message Mark Kennedy is giving voters.”

    Do you really want to send someone to Washington who doesn’t even want to talk about the danger of us letting the terrorists win?

    No matter the race, no Democrat is willing to do what it takes to defeat the terrorists. They are cowards and unwilling to due what we need to to protect future generations.

    Any vote for a Democrat is a vote for vulnerability and a vote against victory. PERIOD!
