I hope I never come face-to-face with Saxby Chambliss.
I might wind up behind bars. You remember Saxby, the never-heard-a-shot-fired-in-anger piece of shit who had the balls to call combat veteran and triple amputee Max Cleland "soft on National Defense" during his Senate campaign.
Now old "Blood-and-Guts" Chambliss is lecturing Jim Webb on how to protect a nation. Saxby calls Jim's proposal (a bill which was seconded by the 300,000 plus members of the Retired Military Officers organization) to afford our troops time off after extended combat tours, "defeatist". Yep, old "Blood-and-Guts" Chambliss wants to lecture Jim Webb on the need for downtime in between firefights.
Memo to Saxby: JIM WEBB WEARS THE MOTHER-FUCKING NAVY CROSS -- AND THE ONLY REASON IT'S NOT THE CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL OF HONOR IS THAT HE SURVIVED HIS WOUNDS. Now I realize that Jim's service can't stack up against your law school deferment and subsequent "bad knee" (moot court's a bitch, isn't it?) all of which somehow conspired to keep you from ever donning a green suit, but here's a little advice from this old ex-grunt: SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH, YOU CANDY-ASS CHICKENHAWK.

1. I hope I do
While I am neither rich nor beautiful enough to be acquitted, no cop in the world would ever look at me and believe me capable of inflicting that kind of damage.

It worked when I was 10 and put a bully boy into the hospital.

2. I detest my sorry ass senator Sack of Shit Chambliss.
Edited on Fri Jul-13-07 03:16 PM by CottonBear
:grr:

He ran that ad comparing Senator Max Cleland to Osama Bin Laden and Saddam Hussein.

You wouldn't believe how many chickenhawk Republics voted for him here in Georgia.

White, conservative Republics just love this guy. :puke:

16. I still receive his goddamned Friday spam.
Can't seem to get unsubscribed after having made the mistake of expressing my opinions to him.

24. Me, too.
But I'm still checking my junk folder regularly, in case Thunderbird ever discards something important. Every Friday afternoon, Chambliss checks in.

32. How do you know how many voted for Chambliss in GA?
Diebold counted the votes and the flip between the pre-election polling and the alleged real vote was so large (about 12-13% according to articles I've seen) that it's highly unlikely that Diebold counted correctly. In fact, IMO it's pretty obvious that Diebold stole the election for Chambliss and Sonny Perdue and probably some other candidates in that election, the 02 election, the point at which the US lost its democracy. Neither of the winners could believe they'd been elected at the time. Perdue had been down by about 11% points in a pre-election poll only a few days before the election and won the election by about 5% points, IMO a strong indication of a fraudulent vote count courtesy of Diebold. I don't think there's any question myself.

When the vote is counted in secret without verification (in this case w/o even the possibility of verification since the counting took place totally inside the Diebold voting machines and there was not one shred of paper to be used to verify) it's not possible to have even the slightest confidence in the outcome of an election. It's also not possible to have a democracy.

3. What a fucking piece of shit Saxby is
and the rest of the chicken shit chickenhawks in Congress. How do these fools end up with such a fan base? Bush, Cheney, this numbnuts Chambliss (what the fuck kind of pansy ass name is SAXBY CHAMBLISS, anyway?) have probably never even been in a schoolyard fight, much less a war. JIM WEBB WAS, JOHN KERRY WAS, MAX CLELAND WAS....AHHHH, I'm with you, 11 Bravo...in fact, I will join you if you ever WANT to go face to face with any of those fuckers...and I'm a 46 year old female.:mad:

It must be hard to be a thinking person down there and not get demoralized from time to time.

7. There are so many great people down here working to change.
We work with the county party offices, in the liberal churches, and we throw a kick-ass Pride Weekend.

But there are still enough people clinging to the old stupidity of the Old South, and until those fuckers kick off, we'll still be saddled with these fascists in the Senate.

8. I'm sure it'll change eventually
Lots of people cash out from expensive areas like the northeast and head south. They aren't necessarily liberal, but neither do they fancy themselves protectors of the Confederacy. I guess it will take another generation or so, but time would seem to be on our side, not theirs.

Edited on Fri Jul-13-07 03:50 PM by senseandsensibility
is all talk? I thought traditional southerners worshipped the military. Don't they know he never served and he's sliming those that did? Can't someone point it out to them in no uncertain terms? I admit the whole thing just leaves me shaking my head. He is vile.:puke:

11. Some do; apparently, enough don't.
FWIW, Bush hasn't had a majority approval in GA in ages. You'd think that'd translate to at least a little headway for an alternative to the fascist pigs we've sent to the Senate.

38. It's tough being blue in this red state
but we have each other. Georgia, and military bases (and I'm not so sure they're as enthusiastic as they used to be), are the only places left where Bush isn't booed off the stage.
It's difficult here. But we endure the "W" stickers and our bottom of the barrel elected officials. Georgia elected Phil Gingrey -- a total Bush lackey. And Lynn "post the 10 Commandments in public buildings 'cause I can only remember 3" Westmoreland.
We have the most abysmal representation of any state.
Isaacson is another embarrassment. "I was for immigration before I was against it."

15. Can someone tell me who's running against this slime ball?
2008 is payback for the corrupt smear campaign he ran in 2002. I hope GA can give this guy a swift kick in the ass.

19. Unfortunately
I do believe thus far the only guestimated competition will be from the CEO of Dekalb county Ga - Vernon Jones -- who isn't exactly the picture of ethics and doesn't have a prayer in hell of winning in a state wide race.

22. That's too bad.
I was hoping that someone strong enough with grassroots support would challenge this thug.

Do you think Dale Cardwell's campaign has any legs?

23. You give him WAY too much credit.
Chambliss is not a thug, he's a well-connected pussy. It requires at least a modicum of guts to be a "thug".

26. At this point he's not being taken seriously.
I generally like his platform, but we know what happens to guys who say they are going to "clean up Washington". They normally either get eaten alive and thrown back to their home state in tatters, or else they get corrupted.

We'll have to wait and see how bad Vernon Jones and Dale Cardwell rip each other up. I can't speak much on Cardwell, but Vernon Jones is 'take no prisoners' type of ruthless.

I just read his issues page on his website and I have to say that he sounds halfway decent.

Thanks for your insight. :hi:

I am deeply ashamed of my state for electing Chambliss. Of course, I don't believe we really did elect him. I think Diebold selected him.

Nice rant, 11 Bravo! :patriot:
