Congressman Tom Price Is A LIAR! LIAR! PANTS ON FIRE LIAR!

Bill Simon, June 1st, 2006

Facts have it that Congressman Tom Price has been caught, not only LYING, but using a “veterans group” to help bolster his lie revealed at tonight’s back-to-back debates in Cobb County. Debates, by the way, that Tom Price was too much of a chickensh*t to even show-up to when the actual debate was scheduled AND his campaign had confirmed the schedule.

Here’s the background story: The League of Women Voters had a debate scheduled for 6:30 PM last night (May 31) for all candidates running in the 6th District.

Price’s campaign office HAD CONFIRMED that he would be there, ready to debate his opponents: John Konop in the Republican primary scheduled on July 18, and Democrat Steve Sinton in the November General Election.

Jews With Guns On Alert For Dumb-Ass Driving Red Pick-Up Truck In Sandy Springs

Bill Simon, May 24th, 2006

First, read this article, then we can discuss.

In response to Sherry Frank, executive director of the American Jewish Committee, who stated in the article that “…no matter how much anti-Semitism and bigotry is reduced, you’ll never wipeout prejudice,” she is right…but, it IS possible to wipe-out the humans who practice it with regularity.

Note to Dumbass Mother-F***er driving red pickup in Sandy Springs, and using it to harrass Jews walking home from services at synagogue, I just hope to have the opportunity to allow you to discover if there is a Heaven or a Hell.

A Joke For Ye Irish-Minded Lads and Lassies

Bill Simon, May 20th, 2006

An Irish daughter had not been home for over 5 years. Upon her return, her father cussed her.

“Where have ye been all this time? Why did ye not write to us, not even a line? Why didn’t ye call? Can ye not understand what ye put yer old mum thru?

The girl, crying, replied, “Sniff, sniff….Dad….I became a prostitute….”

“Ye what!!? Out of here, ye shameless harlot! Sinner! You’re a disgrace to this family.”

“OK, dad– as ye wish. I just came back to give mum this luxurious fur coat, title deed to a ten bedroom mansion plus a savings certificate for $5 million.

For me little brother, this gold Rolex and for ye daddy, the sparkling new Mercedes limited edition convertible th at’s parked outside plus a membership to the country club….(Takes a breath)….And an invitation for ye all to spend New Years Eve on board my new yacht in the Riviera, and….”

“Now what was it ye said ye had become?” Says dad.

Girl, crying again, “Sniff, sniff….A prostitute dad! Sniff, sniff.”

“Oh! Be Jesus! Ye scared me half to death, girl! I thought ye said a ‘Protestant’. Come here and give yer old man a hug!”

I have a question for anyone who follows Sadie Fields

Bill Simon, May 17th, 2006

Here’s the question:

Which causes you to get more incensed, hearing that the gay marriage ban in Georgia has been overturned OR reading/hearing about another IED planted by a terrorist blowing apart an American in Iraq?

Just wondering…

Alert The Media! (Oh, wait…we are the media!)

politicalvine, May 16th, 2006

Rumors have it that a Fulton County Superior Court judge has issued an opinion that overturns the gay marriage amendment ban voted-on by the State of Georgia in November of 2004.

Details are sketchy right now, but one thing we’ve been told is that the judge, Constance Russell, was an appointee of Governor Zell Miller. (Oooooh….wonder what Ziggy will say about THAT judge’s decision now?)

We will predict that the following people/entities will have these reactions to this decision:

Sadie Fields of the Georgia Christian Coalition will denounce the decision, and state “We must get rid of these activist judges by any means necessary! They are ruining my plans to make this state a total theocracy!”

Governor Sonny Perdue will hastily place a phone call to President George Bush and request that some of those National Guard troops who were going to the USA-Mexican border to stop illegals from crossing be diverted to come to Georgia to stop the sudden rush to the altar of gay people who want to get married.

The Plot Is Thickening…2 More Exhibits To View

Bill Simon, May 16th, 2006

Just a quick note to direct you to the addition of two more Exhibits that are included in an Ethics Complaint against a Georgia Statewide Candidate.

Exhibits G & H.

The 9/11 Strike That Wasn’t What Was Claimed By Our Government?

Bill Simon, May 15th, 2006

This is a very interesting video to watch regarding the mysterious lack of plane parts after the supposed crash into the Pentagon on 9/11.

A Mystery To Tease You With…

Bill Simon, May 14th, 2006

Rumors have it that an ethics complaint has been filed with the State Ethics Commission alleging several violations of state ethics laws by a statewide candidate…as well as, possibly, a federal law.

Who’s the candidate, you ask? Well, to just name-drop would spoil my surprise, wouldn’t it? Besides, aren’t you tired of being hand-fed every bit of news in the world?

I’m going to give you hints over a period of a week or so (as my free time permits). The hints are in the form of Exhibits from the complaint itself.

This method is designed to do several things: 1) pique your interest to stay-tuned…2) to make you curious enough to read the exhibits and come-up with your own conclusions on what the complaint/allegations may involve (and post your analysis on my blog)…and, 3) to put the lawyers who will likely be hired to defend this complaint on an anticipatory edge (heh…heh…heh)

Once all of the Exhibits are posted, the Complaint itself will be posted that ties all of the exhibits together and everyone will then have the complete picture to view and analyze.

Ready? Set…Read the Exhibits! (click the link, then click each of the Exhibits to read/download. You must have Adobe Reader to view the exhibits)

Sonny Sez “Sleaze Is Fine for the Soccer Moms and Me”…

PV, May 8th, 2006

Rumors have it that a 30-second reelection campaign commercial for Governor Sonny Perdue played during last night’s episode (May 7) of Desperate Housewives and cost on the order of $30,000 for the cherished spot.

Last night’s episode reportedly contained gay sex acts/references…hardly the type of “family values” entertainment that is blared-out of campaign speeches and press releases from any self-proclaimed “pro-family conservative” in today’s campaign arena.

Did someone make an “Oops!” commercial “buy” for this particular show? Or, is it part of the strategery (sic 😉 ) for conservative Republicans who wish to bash the Bible over other people’s heads to insert themselves in a What’s Waldo Doing Here fashion into whatever media source they can possibly find to get their message heard? Hmmm…

Wiki Will Be Wicked For 2006 Campaigns

Bill Simon, April 28th, 2006

PoliticsOnline.com’s weekly issue has as their Top Story this past week’s clash of Georgia’s Democrat Titans: Mark Taylor and Cathy Cox, both candidates for Governor.

Here’s their story excerpt:

Secretary of State Cathy Cox’s opponent, Lt. Gov. Mark Taylor, said campaign manager Morton Brilliant altered an online encyclopedia entry to include a reference to Taylor’s son being arrested for DUI after an accident that killed his passenger. Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales confirmed these accusations. The Taylor for Governor campaign responded by accusing Cox of exploiting a family tragedy for political purposes and calling for her resignation, although Cox denied any knowledge of the addition.

This story is only the most highly publicized of a number of recent campaign scuffles involving Wikipedia. Brilliant has also been accused of editing the Wikipedia profile of current Governor Mark Sanford. Nearly twenty more changes have since been made to Sanford’s profile, presumably by both sides of the aisle.

Wikipedia has attempted to deal with problems concerning politically motivated revisions by tightening its submission guidelines and setting up alerts so that operators know when Capitol Hill staffers edit online profiles.

Fulton County DA vs. Fulton County Deputy

politicalvine, April 26th, 2006

Rumors have it that in the case of Fulton County DA Paul Howard vs. a Fulton County Deputy who alleges Howard dislocated her shoulder, some evidence appears to exist that the deputy’s shoulder was actually dislocated BEFORE the event with Paul Howard.

We have no “smoking gun” here, but a rumor is going around the courthouse that the deputy and someone else were looking-up information on the Web about dislocated shoulders before the incident with Howard even occured…which appears to imply there was something already wrong with the deputy’s shoulder.

Now that the case has been dismissed by the judge, the case may go to the state attorney general’s office for review and possible investigation.

Today's Deep Thought

I think when you go on trial they should have a parrot there that says guilty or not guilty for you, as a sort of courtesy.
