If so, i congratulate you on your bravery dear sir and hand you the order of the "cooked goose".
It depends on what species the kidney was harvested from.

Heh, you have no idea what a kidney pie is, do you?

What was your first clue?

And, while you're at it, explain blood pudding. I wouldn't touch it when I was in scotland last century.

Ice cream does not go with cheesecake. Therefore it is neither cake nor pie but an
Obomination.
^^ Hehe

It's not bad actually, it's pretty much just gelantine and blood + spices.

It's not all that different from some sausages that you have eaten, high protein, low fat.

Scotland is pretty nice, but if you want true beauty, come to Sheffield.

Then releasing the tape will only show how foolish those of us on the right are, correct?

What he said to a Jewish audience in Boca Raton:
?[Khalidi] is Palestinian. And I do know him and I have had conversations. He is not one of my advisors; he?s not one of my foreign policy people. His kids went to the Lab school where my kids go as well. He is a respected scholar, although he vehemently disagrees with a lot of Israel?s policy... To pluck out one person who I know and who I?ve had a conversation with who has very different views than 900 of my friends and then to suggest that somehow that shows that maybe I?m not sufficiently pro-Israel, I think, is a very problematic stand to take?So we gotta be careful about guilt by association.?

Seems that once again Obama is trying to downplay his relationship with a questionable character.

I must be blind, but I don't see a single contradiction there. I have friends who are heavy into drugs and have opened my eyes to a world I was content to ignore... but I don't use or endorse the use of drugs. Is there hypocrisy there? No. Just because your acquaintances, friends or family do something does not mean you support or endorse it, which is exactly the point Obama was making to the Jewish audience in Florida.

No it just means you turn a blind eye to a problem. some of us fully know how bad parts of society are and we don't have to associate with people in that part of society to know about it.
By not condoning such actions you in fact support it.

So far I have seen absolutely no evidence that it is newsworthy. Only in the desperate world of Pro-Jo does Obama talking to highly respected scholars who have different viewpoints a bad thing.

God damn that's rich. You seriously think the LA times is unbias and a bastion of fairness in reporting?

Highly respected? The only person that highly respects people that work with and for terrorists are other terrorists.

You have some point, other than gibberish?

David Ben-Gurion and Menachim Begin were terrorists, too... along with Ariel Sharon and others...

But that, of course, doesn't matter in revisionist history...

Woohoo!!! I cant wait. In January the first Obama administration act will be to declare truce with Al Qaeda, then change the name of our country to the United States of Arabia (this way we can still use the USA T-Shirts) the next step - outlaw Christianity!!!

WTH, no, it's the same shit you make pork rinds from... horse hooves??????? The fuck did you get that from? Blooed is pig blood, now you think it's disguesting, but if you knew what was going into a sausage, you'd think that is worse.

Doesn't really matter, taste is taste, i'm a fan of English cooking, one of the few. :D

The idea that the L.A. Times has the tape comes right from the LA times.
link to LA Times
The event was videotaped, and a copy of the tape was obtained by The Times.

It also says:

Obama adopted a different tone in his comments and called for finding common ground.





That happens a lot when running for president.

So how many anti-Obama threads will the desperate crazies generate tomorrow? At first it was just one every few days, now the anti-McCain threads are mostly gone and it's all the usual suspects desperately posting thread after thread of ever more pathetic accusations in a desperate attempt to character assassinate Obama before next Tuesday.

It's gone from sad, to amusing, to annoying.

Just keep looking at it as amusing... The desperation is fun to watch. Not watch idly, as Gore and Kerry did, but watch and quickly defend yourself like Obama does.

The funnest part is knowing hese right wing douchebags will have to say the words "president Obama" for the next 8 years.
