Gen I thought that a few weeks ago you said that you were talking to Martinez's office and something to the effect that "he gets it"
What was that all about?

As an aside, having received what I think was pretty close to a classical education, I was taught not to use caps, bold, or even the word "very" because it ends up diminishing the impact of the prose.

Apparently someone in his office gets it, but perhaps The Senator does not.

Or he's playing lapdog to McCain.

Whatever the case may be, that speech was enough for me. You **** me over just once with lies and I will rip off your head and **** down your neck, no matter who you are.

I never did classical anything; I've always been a loudmouth pain in the ass.

My wife has been complaining that I haven't been smiling lately. I keep telling her I'm trying not to breath out of my mouth.

Ok Ok.. seriously... I remember telling someone in jest last year that the Govt should just nationalize all houses and hand them out according to need. I really don't think we are that far off.

Damn that is a big font. I had to take off my reading glasses to read it.

While we shout from the rooftops, our "representatives" (and I use that term loosely) continue to sit back while Rome burns. I don't think these people are stupid and if you look at actions like the bankruptcy reform act, it becomes clearer to me at least they know exactly what they are doing and it's obviously not in the interests of the vast majority of Americans. I've said for a long time that this will end up being the greatest transfer of wealth we have ever seen (mostly away from the middle class and to a lesser extent the poor). Beyond just the transfer of wealth, it also is apparent that government power will only become stronger as more and more people rely on the government for support. It's WAY past time that people wake up to the fact that we need new representation before the hole gets any deeper.

Makes us.. not mouth breathers..

Quote:
Mouth breathing refers to the state of inhaling and exhaling through the mouth.

A healthy individual normally breathes through the nose while resting or doing light exercise, and breathes simultaneously through both the nose and mouth during vigorous aerobic exercise, in order to supply sufficient oxygen. Excessive mouth breathing is problematic because air is not filtered and warmed as much as when inhaled through the nose, as it bypasses the nasal canal and paranasal sinuses, and dries out the mouth. Mouth breathing is often associated with congestion, obstruction, or other abnormalities of the upper respiratory tract.

What's wrong with mouth breathing, that you would compare the actions of McCain, Paulsen, Martinez, et al to it? You breathe through your mouth when you scuba dive, don't you?

Gen, they (gov) can solve the 'housing crisis' and maintain housing prices. They need to inflate like mad via a new bubble.

Gen,

"pain in the ass" = engineer worth their salt (pay)
"loudmouth" = verbose and extrovert

To the 1% reading The Ticker, this should have been obvious.

BTW, For the record,
I am an intermittently "cured" mouth-breather. An allergic, asthmatic with a long history of sinus operations, a jaw operation and a long list of medications that I consume daily to deal with the symptoms. Can we just legalize methamphetamine, so, I can have my pseudo-epinephrine back!

My status as mouth-breather has no bearing on my intellect or my professional achievements.

From the TF dictionary,

mouth-breather (noun):
a stupid person; a moron, dolt, imbecile; easily impressed by the moronic conclusions of MSM.

Those with respiratory problems (myself included) need not apply.
