I bet this is one of the happiest days of your life, isn't it wolfman?

Happiest day old wolfman's life. Of course, the saddest day was just a few weeks ago when Whitney Houston died.

Dell_diva its truly sad that this had to end in this way. Reminds me of Michael Jackson and how Michael surrounded himself with destructive people. Its obvious he had his demons.

posted by wolfman on Mar 01, 2012 at 04:20:23 pm     #  

Yes Little Ofart Whitney Houston was another one surrounded by destructive people. He was 43 years old. Pretty young must have been a reason. I'm sure in the coming days we'll find out. I liked his passion not his politics.

The coroner is reporting that he died of embarrassment for his party.

Don't worry, folks---the damning video is on its' way! Maybe wolfie sent him a "anthony weiner-type" photo, and Breitbart laughed himself to death?

posted by Wulf on Mar 01, 2012 at 04:56:38 pm     #  

I wonder if Breitbart finished editing it? He never found a video that he couldn’t edit to show the exact opposite of what was being said.

I’m sure it will be released with the Michele Obama “whitey” video so many conservatives circle jerked themselves to in anticipation four years ago…

Also, as I have seen elsewhere today regarding Breitbart: "Within the hours immediately following Senator Ted Kennedy's death, Breitbart called Kennedy a "villain", a "duplicitous bastard", a "prick" and "a special pile of human excrement.""

Hmmmm. Hypocrisy much, ToledoTalk Teabaggers?

I'm wondering if this is the video someone sued the L.A. Times over, before the election in '08? There was also a reward offered for it. If Breitbart finally got the video, Drudge has a copy, for sure.

Not that I want to wander further off topic, but I've had my "personal attack" comments in other threads go missing, but here we have 2 of the first 3 posts saying "happiest day in wolfman's life". Come on now, funny how the people who posted those comments have a cow over what I say, but it's okay if they do it. I see some hypocrisy here and I have to call it out. You're the admin, deal with it as you wish, but I gotta point out what I see as inconsistency here.

Through all this grief and on SB an anonymous poster posts this about the Wolfman:

"And how long until you die?
Although it's entertaining to make fun of you on SB, it will be more fun to piss on your grave and screw your wife while your lifeless carcass rots underground.
Have you always been a little cocksucking ass kisser?"

First, the Kennedy's are nobody's model family of saintly living. It's hard to make that argument when your family fortune was made off of bootlegging during Prohibition and the old man was banging Gloria Swanson practically in front of Rose on the dining room table. The Kennedy brothers and the old man played the political game well. Who they were as people, eh...ask Mary Jo Kopechne or Joan Kennedy (ex-wife). Not exactly raving reviews.

But the larger point....Breitbart was incendiary in his commentary? Well, the other side got all their pissiness out today with his death. Congrats:

Make a threatening statement or personal attack as a "liberal", though, and you're a commie pinko socialist American-hating flag-burning fag-lover whose comments they want deleted and then they'll report you to the Internet Police.

Apparently she was offered her job back, then again, after you got wrongly forced out in a big political shit-storm ginned up by this, would you want to go back? And if she did go back, you right-wingers would just try to make more political hay over it and hound her forever. Of course, you dodged the real issue of this particular incident, which is Breitbart and Co. being sued for ginning up this video in the first place that caused all this. If someone took a recording of me and selectively edited it and posted it on the Internet in order to score political points in a way that caused my boss to come to me and ask me to resign or be fired, I'm pretty sure a) I wouldn't want to go back to that workplace and b) I'd sue the pants off of the person who ginned up the video in court for every last penny I could get in order to clear my name, and I think you would too.

Now stop playing dumb as to how politics work.

Anonymouscoward not too long after posting this thread my phone lit up with calls from a couple of friends who still listen to the Hate Radio station. From what was said I guess the dual Hatesters, smarmy Fred and Herr Wilson, bantered their bullsh*t about the Wolfman and my recent tasteful tributes to Andrew Breitbart. From what I gathered they repudiate my right to free speech. Just like Herr Wilson's dumping of Mark Levin because he didn't promote that Ron Paul loser. This is how Germany ended up in WWII from propagandists who think their free speech is more worthy than anyone elses.

Now I know what you are talking about, AC. Your comments that got removed in the past were political comments that were posted in non-political threads. This thread is a political thread, and the crap remains. Big difference.

I'm not going to dig up my comment, but I said months ago or a year ago that if obvious, flame-bating political comments were posted in non-political threads, then those comments would be removed. Is this rule enforced 100 percent of the time in every occasion for every user? Unlikely. But AC, you get to post things here that I probably would not permit a new user to post.

A reminder from the posting guidelines :

Not saying that he deserved to die, but Breitbart was a vile person. And, yeah, Michael Moore is a general pile of dung as well. If a person has to lie and resort to 'creative editing' to support their arguments, they have no business being mentioned with real journalists.

No no, individual human beings on government assistance are parasites according to the GOP windbags. The "corporate person" that gets "tax incentives" or "corporate welfare" or whatever phrase you want to use that really means "tax breaks, stimulus funds, or any other kind of money or loopholes that are not available to small-to-medium businesses" are not parasites, they're the "job creators" and "real Americans" and so on.

It’s very important what Obama said at a rally 21 years ago, but we should forget that only 2-6 years ago, Romney was pro-gay marriage, donating money to Plan Parenthood , was for government mandating healthcare and for religious employers to cover contraception.

Still think Clinton is going to resign and run against him?

How can I explain this? If obama tanks in the polls, like to where everyone knows he'll lose, I'm saying she might resign as Sec. of State, and the other democrats could push for obama to resign, creating an empty spot on the ticket, just like what would happen, if he got too sick, or otherwise incapacitated. Somebody would, out off necessity be put on the ticket. I'm not saying she IS going to quit, but if the opportunity presents itself, the democrats are NOT going to forfeit an election because the sitting president isn't available to run. Don't forget, "Team Clinton" isn't a pair of clueless idiots, don't you agree? Anything can happen, nuclear war in the middle east, economic collapse, and so on.

That video reminds me more of Obama campaigning in 2008 than it does of Obama speaking as president today. I'm a lot more disappointed in his change since taking office than anything in that video.

Well Wulf, your earth-shattering tapes are utter FAIL. Got anything else? Perhaps some footage of Obama on the grassy knoll, or in the studio helping to fake the moon landing?

For Barry to give the reigns of power to Hillary would show a massive failure in leadership within the Democratic party and almost hand the election to the Republican candidate. How are you going to the People and tell them "we know what we have been doing is working" but then change the person in charge. If what they are doing is working like they claim, there would be no need for a leadership change. It's just no going to happen.

I think Barry will beat Romney (they really are the same guy) handily, this whole Hilly thing is sizzle by Drudge/Huffpo to drive page reads.

Then why don't you provide us with a link to Drudge, or the Huffing and Puffington post, showing they considered this? Why don't you illustrate to us, what would happen if the president of the United States, any president, became unable to win re-election, for any reason? I suppose you and a couple others, would say such a situation is impossible? Under ANY circumstances? That would mean a forfeit to the Republicans if the democrats didn't field another candidate. What if Romney gets the nomination, and has a stroke or heart attack, and nobody else has enough delegates to be nominated? Or, gets linked to some sort of "watergate" type of activity, and utterly tanks in the polls? Is this an impossibility?

You can't get on the ballot in most states for the position of president (as a member of a major party) unless your party submits all the paperwork within X days of the party convention. Usually the X is only 1 or 2 days.

Come on Wulfie, waiting to see how this is devastating and waiting for Clinton to resign... where's the "other" tapes you are implying exist as well? Dude, if you and your fellow Breitbartians weren't against green energy, we'd be able to harvest all the hot air and methane out of you and power Toledo with it.

I heard that Hannity was going to have video tonight of Obama not eating the vanilla part of his Neapolitan ice cream.

Really? I heard they had exclusive footage of him having arugula and Grey Poupon mustard on his halal hot dog, cause that would just be the ultimate conservative outrage about how he's an elitist Muslim. Everyone knows Real American Presidents love jelly beans, hate broccoli, and choke on pretzels. And don't forget, Real Presidents also consider ketchup to be a vegetable.

"I live to harass WHITE folks" "White boy professors". Latest tapes reveal a little more. Monday nights' program, will reveal a little bit more yet. I there a pattern developing here?

What's going on, on Hannity, is a beautiful contemporary opera. He's starting out slow, and allowing the Tapes to build into a powerful crescendo. Mozart did that, too.

OMG! Next you're going to tell me he associates with some one who calls 90% of women sluts or dresses up as a Nazi on the weekends.

Seriously , Hannity has blown his load on this. He can keep stroking it, but it's over...
