you're a goddamned retard, JSC.
I look forward to the day the world won't be subject to your retard ramblings.

Bill Owens is on his way out; he didn't run for re-election and doesn't necessarily aspire to higher political office (the CO Republican party REALLY wanted him to vie for a congressional seat). So, he's got nothing to lose at this point by pissing off anyone and everyone he wants to.All too often, politicians are bland and avoid any controversy, not this guy.

PETA wrote:An Open Letter to NBA Players
On behalf of the more than 1 million members and supporters of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) worldwide, I am writing with a solution to the recent drama of a few high-profile NBA players who were whining about fingertip scratches and scrapes caused by the new composite basketball adopted by the league. As excruciating as these “injuries” must be for a world-class athlete, thousands of cows stand to suffer far worse if the NBA goes back to a leather basketball—so we’d like to suggest a compromise.
PETA would like to offer a lifetime supply of cruelty-free hand cream to any NBA siss … excuse me, superstar who’d be willing to give the composite ball another shot. Recreational players and NCAA athletes have been using composite balls for years without experiencing scratches or scrapes—but we understand that the delicate hands of pampered NBA superstars are far more sensitive than those of your average Joe who actually has to work for a living. The hand cream comes in a variety of scents, including “Filthy Rich Organic” (perfect for any overpaid millionaire) and “Peaceful Patchouli”—Nash, we have a whole case of that set aside for you. Maybe by taking care of your own skin a bit better, you can allow cows who would otherwise meet their end in the slaughterhouse to keep theirs.
Shaq, as one of the players who has been most critical of the composite ball, perhaps you’ll volunteer to be our test case—since you’ve only played four games all season, surely you have time to work a moisturizing routine into your schedule. Or LeBron, maybe you’re interested. The NCAA has used the composite ball for years—so it’s not only an education that you missed out on. Maybe you just need some more time to adjust.
In the interest of sparing thousands of cows a hideous, unnecessary death, please consider this suggestion. In the meantime, we wish the NBA luck in its search for leftover leather basketballs—judging by the reaction of some players, it seems like balls are in pretty short supply around the NBA these days.
Sincerely,
Dan Shannon
Manager of Campaigns

Trust me, he's a fairly standard, vanilla politician.
So what you're saying is ....Salsashark wrote:He is term limited so he can't run for reelection, and he won't run for higher office because he stuck his dick in someone else while in office. He and the OL got separated because of it, but it was hushed up and they got back together all nice like.

Well, it's not like he was involved in a high-speed chase with his 'Ho in the back seat and a newspaper reporter chasing his car and calling it an "Assasination attempt"or anythingie.Smackie Chan wrote:So what you're saying is ....Salsashark wrote:He is term limited so he can't run for reelection, and he won't run for higher office because he stuck his dick in someone else while in office.

And this is different from any other organization how? Not defending PETA, but it's rather tardish to expect others to choose an organization's agenda. Society "warrants" a nearly infinite number of agendas.Adelpiero wrote:they pick their own agendas, not the agendas that their society warrants.
Right here, Tramps. Oh sure, I used to run cattle in Colorado, after I was a kicker for the Broncos, and just before I became an amateur taxadermist. Anyway, my suggestion is to release Dick Cheney way out on the blizzarded plains, and then fly over in a helicopter and drop a bale of hay on him, then fly off.Trampis wrote:Its winter,why are the cattle so far from there feed source that they need to have feed air lifted to them?Any cattle ranchers from Co. post here?

Their agenda doesn't jive with lazy hypocritical society so they fight to change society. Duh.Adelpiero wrote:they pick their own agendas, not the agendas that their society warrants.
JSC still can't obtain a firm grasp on the notion that the ol' $ sign rules. If he can't see that this wouldn't be a wise allocation of PETA funds, then, well... I dunno...Bizzarofelice wrote:1) Think about PETA.
2) Think about their goal and the role they serve in the world.
3) See how it doesn't jive with these cows.
4) Thank me for teaching you a lesson
Fucking idiot.
I believe bace was trying to say that their agenda doesn't communicate ebonically with lazy hypocritical society.Mike the Lab Rat wrote:the word people want to use for "agreeing with" is JIBE, not "jive."
No problem, Tramps, we'll pay for it with 1/1,000,000th of the money scammed by KBR in Cheney's oh-so lucrative procurement racket. Then we'll send the board of directors of KBR to prison for a long time. Then we'll REDISTRIBUTE their illegally gained income back to the republic from which it was stolen. Sound good to you? Well, okay then.Trampis wrote:Is the government going to pay for that too,hmmmm,income redistribution boy?LTS TRN 2 wrote:Right here, Tramps.

At least your an "equal opportunity Asshole".Mike the Lab Rat wrote:Living in a college town, I wind up with clueless, idealistic wingnuts from groups like PETA and Greenpeace on my porch all the time. I can usually smell the kids' patchouli before I even open our front door to see their baja-clad, Caucasian-with-dreadlocks, clipboard-totin' faces. I'm usually polite to them at first, remembering those crazy youthful days of believing in the purity of causes. As soon as they start spouting their scientifically-unfounded drivel, however, I tee-off on their asses and have actually pushed some of the noveau-hippies to tears (not too hard to do with these sensitive folks...).
I do the same sort of "Operation Mindfuck" to the JW's and Mormons that insist on sending members of their hive to proselytize in my neighborhood. Be polite at first to draw them in, maybe even offer them a beverage, and then *WHAM* - nail their clueless doe-eyed carcasses to a tree for daring to push their bad sci-fi as legitimate religion while on MY frigging property.
By the way...not to "go Dinsdale" on posters, but the word people want to use for "agreeing with" is JIBE, not "jive." Look it up.
