At this very moment

Rep. Dennis Kucinich is presenting articles of impeachment for Bush on C-SPAN on the floor of the House. It is a 35-count resolution. Last year he endeavored to launch impeachment against Cheney, a resolution that has yet to be acted upon.

  1. Once again, I’m left wishing Al Gore, when he invented the internet, had included the reach-through screen with his invention. That way, folks like Jimmie J. would have to remember that sometimes, when you speak to people in a certain way, they actually hit you.
    Reminds me of the time waaay back in 8th grade…there was this little punk 7th grader who confused tolerance and passivity for weakness. He used to enjoy making himself look big to his friends by taunting me. I’ve never really been good at any version of “your mother,” and my own always taught me not to say bad things. One day, I guess I’d had enough, and I did a quick turn on him, must have dug out a Batman voice, and just told him to shut up. I think he pìššëd his pants.
    Point being, without Al Gore’s Reach-through Monitor, we just have to hope that Karma catches folks like that when they aren’t looking.

  3. What he’s saying, you unintelligent little coward, is that if you were being this disrespectful to someone face-to-face there’s a good chance they’d actually knock all of your teeth out. But I’m guessing you’re aware of that.

  4. Ok, isn’t it about time to turn this thread back to something serious?
    Two words.
    Zombie.
    Squirrels.
    Discuss…

  5. Eh, we’ve seen better, more interesting stuff.
    Jimmie J, on the off chance that you are more interested in making points than just being another in a short unmemorable line of angry trolls with issues, please take a moment to consider whether or not any of this is advancing your agenda. There’s a mix of political opinions to be found in the regular posters here–are ANY of them likely to be swayed by how you’re presenting yourself?
    I realize that with folks like Kos and Ann Coulture around one may get the impression that their kind of writing is where it’s at but in reality they and their ilk are just choir preachers, big fish in small ponds to be sure…but still just fish. Real influence doesn’t come from mocking people’s hair, teeth or pantsuits.
    What I’m saying is you’ve made it very easily to not take you seriously. If your goal was to make points, that’s not a good thing. If your goal was just to win some kind of grudge match with PAD, well, it’s even worse, claims of victory to the contrary.

  6. Good post, Bill. Bill Mulligan, I mean. The other Bill a few posts ago needs a distemper shot. You’re right. I will post to advance conversations in the future.

  7. Just because Bill Mulligan is going through some kind of post-traumatic stress disorder over Kos observing McCain doesn’t have the sense avoid making his teeth the only yellow element on his homepage banner, that doesn’t mean Kos isn’t good people. If McCain doesn’t want to get caught bleaching a banner of all yellow except for his teeth, then he should simply abstain from the behavior he doesn’t want to get caught doing.

  8. Bill Myers is a veteran of the Troll Wars and deserves respect.
    On the subject of zombie squirrels:
    has anyone else seen the hysterical British short film NIGHT OF THE HÊLL HAMSTERS? I’m only mad I didn’t think of it first.

  9. PAD: “”I won the exchange.” Guys, remind me…there was some nimrod poster who kept saying that.”
    Well, if we’re playing “Guess the Troll” here…
    Both Mike and Jeff have used the phrase, but I doubt that it’s either of them since they both still post here under their own names.
    One could be place a bet on Lingster, but he doesn’t write enough like him.
    My bet would be on Ben Bradley AKA the fake Dan Taylor AKA several other names that slip my mind right now. Writes a lot like him.

  10. You aren’t going to find any post by me including the phrase “I won the exchange.” It’s funny how the people who are verifiably, unnapologetically, and habitually wrong feel free to disregard the evidence they’re áššhølëš and set themselves up to be the arbiters of trolldom.

  11. Ok Mike, I’ll give you that one. It was quickly typed and sloppily written. I should have said that both you and Jeff have used phrases very similar to that. But you’re still a troll, a brick wall and an idiot.

  12. Quote: “You aren’t going to find any post by me including the phrase “I won the exchange.””
    DOH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  13. Alan, I’m not asking anyone to take my word for anything. By Jerry’s account I’m right and he’s wrong.
    What’s wrong with you that you think ridiculing someone for being right is a good idea? How would you justify — to whatever guardian angel the universe may provide you — holding someone’s accuracy against them? Can you ever go wrong tolerating your own inaccuracy, or what? And as you read this, what kind of urge to reach for an alcoholic beverage are you experiencing?

  14. Pat Nolan saID: 00The same info the Bush admin. was using is the same info the Clinton Admin. was using. The Intel was not perfect, it had flaws.
    The Bush administration got us into a pointless war with a country that had never done us any actual harm because Bush was misinformed as to the definition of “sexual act”? Remember, Clinton was impeached on charges of perjury after saying he had not had sex with Monica Lewinsky – he apparently did not consider oral sex to be “sex”. (Seven years of digging, and that was the worst dirt the special prosecutor could find… but, to borrow a famous phrase, I digress.)
    The charges in Kucinich’s impeachment articles involved subversion of the Constitution, illegal declarations of war (only Congress is supposed to have the power to do that – they can’t delegate it, even with “use of force” resolutions), violations of the First and Fourth Amendments, etc. How does that relate to definitions of “sex”?

  15. HOT OFF THE PRESS…
    The House has voted to send articles of impeachment against President Bush to a committee that is not likely to hold hearings before the end of his term.
    By 251-166, House members dispatched the measure to a committee on Wednesday — a procedure often used to kill legislation.
    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi long ago declared the prospects for impeachment proceedings “off the table.”

  16. Iowa Jim: If you’re hanging around, where are you exactly, and how are things holding up in your neck of the woods?

  17. “What’s wrong with you that you think ridiculing someone for being right is a good idea?”
    I didn’t ridicule anybody, but if that’s how you see it, fine by me. I don’t much care.

    Then what made quoting me and responding with nonsense urgent where you’ve never demonstrated the inclination to arbitrarily quote anyone and responding with nonsense before?

  19. Mike, Alan was making a joke that you apparently missed. In the process of saying that you had never used the phrase “I won the exchange” in a post, you used the phrase “I won the exchange” in a post, hence technically invalidating the claim that you had never used the phrase in a post. He is not ridiculing you, merely pointing out the logical hole you inadvertantly created.

  20. Bill Mulligan: “Bill Myers is a veteran of the Troll Wars and deserves respect.”
    Yes, but please tell George Lucas there’s no need to flesh out my backstory with an unecessary prequel.
    Patrick Calloway: “Squirrels.”
    Ah, yes, the joke I started that would not die. I fear they will include something about squirrels in my epitaph.
    Sorry. Allow me to get into character…
    God dámņ Hitler-loving squirrels! Will you not allow me a moment’s peace????

  21. I’ve planted a tent beside the grave of Alan’s joke, so I may spend the remainder of my days there devoted to the divine trust of maintaining its formal display.

    Did he ever answer?

  23. Did he ever answer?
    No. He’s only visited sporadically of late, so I’m not worried about him. But with all the flooding in Iowa, I wasn’t sure if he was directly affected or not.
