Again a useful contribution ... IOW the best that TheMercenary can do. After all, he only understands attacking others. He also posted that he sometimes looks at the pictures in The Economist. That proves he can read.

Why does he not read it? No insults. Therefore it is boring. TheMercenary only understands attacking others and four letter words.

Notice how again he changes the tone of every thread. But that is also what Rush Limbaugh does. Therefore merc knows it must be good and right.

George is not relevant. Relevant is why your wife loves to be raped. Or can't you do that anymore now that wackos have been voted out?

Deal with the problem OR I will continue to post just like TheMercenary. I have no choice because you attack the symptom rather than deal with a problem that has existed long ago and is geting worse as you encourage it by your silence.

xoxoxoBruce 01-11-2009 07:49 PM

You're the fucking problem, asshole.

tw. 01-11-2009 08:26 PM

you do realize that he posted that at 2:25 pm, right?

xoxoxoBruce 01-11-2009 08:30 PM

I warned him at 2, he responded at 2:18, then posted here at 2:25. But reviewing, at 2:25 he didn't do it, just threatened to do it.

To get back on topic....

Housekeeper and Taxes Are Said to Derail Kennedy’s Bid

Quote:

Problems involving taxes and a household employee surfaced during the vetting of Caroline Kennedy and derailed her candidacy for the Senate, a person close to Gov. David A. Paterson said on Thursday, in an account at odds with Ms. Kennedy’s own description of her reasons for withdrawing.
The account emerged 14 hours after Ms. Kennedy announced that she was taking her name out of contention for the Senate seat vacated by Hillary Rodham Clinton, and as Mr. Paterson, according to two well-placed Democrats told of his thinking, was leaning toward selecting Representative Kirsten E. Gillibrand, an upstate lawmaker in her second term in Congress. Mr. Paterson has scheduled a news conference at noon Friday in Albany to announce his choice.

Hard feelings toward Ms. Kennedy were clearly building among the governor’s staff on Thursday, after a dramatic evening in which she was reported to be dropping out, then wavering, then ultimately, shortly after midnight on Thursday, issuing a statement ending her candidacy.

The person close to the governor said Mr. Paterson “never had any intention of picking Kennedy” because he had come to consider her unready for the job. The person did not describe the exact nature or seriousness of the tax and household employee issues.

But other Democratic operatives and people who talked to the governor disputed that account, and said that he had all but decided to select Ms. Kennedy as senator, and that his staff was arranging a press conference for late this week.

An aide to Ms. Kennedy said Thursday that while Ms. Kennedy had not been told for certain that she was the choice, there were strong indications that she would be.

During the early afternoon Wednesday, the aide said, Ms. Kennedy became aware of what the aide referred to as a “personal situation” that could prevent her from fulfilling her duties as senator. The personal situation was not related to the seizure that her uncle, Senator Edward M. Kennedy, suffered during an inauguration luncheon on Tuesday, the aide said, declining to be more specific.

Maybe Patterson is enforcing the new responsibility theme which should include paying your taxes and following the law of the land.

The person who most deserved that appointment to Senator was NY AG Cuomo. He had demonstrated much competence and a strong desire to make hard decisions. Why Caroline Kennedy was even being considered is said to have been a great frustration to Cuomo.

However, it could be suggested that the Governor would let the Kennedy ‘campaign’ blow over; then appoint Cuomo after the turmoil settled. I don’t see any reason for appointing that Senate seat to Kennedy. When the public begins to grasp that, then the Governor probably will appoint Cuomo.

classicman 01-22-2009 09:55 PM

I didn't think Cuomo was in contention. Looks like its Gillibrand

Quote:

New York Gov. David Paterson will name Rep. Kirsten Gillibrand, an upstate Democrat, to replace Hillary Clinton in the U.S. Senate, a Democratic official with knowledge of the governor's decision told FOX News on Thursday night.

Gillibrand, elected in 2006, represents the state's 20th congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives. She is the first Democrat to represent the district since 1978 -- and the first female representative of the district.

Paterson is scheduled to formally announce his pick Friday.

"I'm honored just to be considered," Gillibrand told FOX News earlier Thursday.

But some New York City Democrats are skeptical of Gillibrand, who voted against the financial rescue package last fall. And the National Rifle Association has endorsed Gillibrand -- another cause for concern among some Democrats.

In defense of the endorsement, Gillibrand told FOX News that she come from a "hunting family" and "wants to support hunter's rights."

The choice of Gillibrand follows weeks of broad speculation over whom Paterson would choose, the presumed frontrunners being state Attorney General Andrew Cuomo and Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of President Kennedy.

Clinton resigned from the Senate this week to be sworn in as President Obama.

Kennedy had campaigned vigorously for the position but withdrew her name from consideration Wednesday, citing "personal reasons." That sparked a flurry of media reports on other potential motives for her decision, rumors that she described, through a spokesman, as untrue "mudslinging."
