rush or al

so rush limbaugh wants to be a part owner of an nfl team and al sharpton thinks this is an important social issue and has decided to toss in his 2 cents worth.

i don't think the ownership of a football team is something that impacts on the public good. football is a game, plain and simple. there is a tremendous amount of hype and bullshit associated with it but it's still a fucking game.

suppose rush limbaugh bought shares in phizer. would al sharpton chime in on this? i doubt it. al sharpton is a media whore. being a part owner of a drug company would have much more impact on the public good than being a part owner of football team.

so here's the question:


forex Poll


i've been a big sam cooke binge lately.

Rush was 86'd from his bid to be part owner by the very people he was in league with.
He harps incessantly about how entreprenuerialship should be left alone to seek it's own level.
Well,..his business partners took a look at their bottom line,and decided he was a liability!
Rush should be proud they took his advice.
In other news..Sam Cooke is the real King of Rock!

Why are you concerned with American politics? It's all a bunch of bullshit and anyone that thinks they understand them is living a delusion.

As for the right, one of the best things that could happen to this fucked up country right now is for Limbaugh to die.

I'll have a few extra beers when I get that news. What an ignorant motherfucker.

sage - i love to vote.

mr wit - maybe i should have had a 3rd choice, both.

yellowdog - sam be the man.

sling - maybe rush just wanted to get his hands on the nfl painkillers.

bbc - your politics are the greatest show on earth! ours are like cutting an apple in half and watching it turn brown.

I love Mr. Cook.

Is it okay if I vote again if I come back? Then I can vote for both.

Not only are they ahoes... they're both idiots.

BBC said...

I don't recall giving her permission to call me Mr. Cook. Not that its not okay, just that I prefer Billy.

billy pilgrim said...

ananda - bbc is a sly old dog, looks like you've fallen under his spell.

bbc - teach me your secret.

secret agent woman said...

I don't care for either one of them.

Ananda girl said...

Will I get to live this one down?

billy pilgrim said...

secret - i thought therapists had to like everyone. live and learn.

ananda - did you forget to put an "e" on the end of the name?

Montana said...

He has spent years unfairly labeling others. Finally he had his judgment day.

BBC said...

bbc - teach me your secret.

It's easy, drink with them and act like a goofy fuck, ha ha ha.

i've never had a cell phone and never will. i buy used clothes and collect empty tins.

I buy used clothes and collect empty tins also. But I did buy a cell phone recently. Had my landline phone number transferred to it and dropped my landline.

It's it's a pay per minute phone and cheaper than the landline was no more than I use a phone, I even turn it on sometimes.

BBC said...

Ananda Girl has a cell phone, when I was there I wanted to take a fucking hammer to it. I never even turned mine on when there.

I think it's impolite to always be answering and talking on a phone when you are visiting someone. It was just her spoiled adult kids anyway wanting rides or food.

BBC said...

BTW... Our politics may be the greatest show on earth to you but they are also the most destructive show and we're taking you down with us.

Sorry about that, I like you Canadians.

I agree with you Billy. I voted for Al but it was a tough choice.
