no clue who Larry is, but I keep reading the responses to him in the voice of Susie Essman's character on Curb Your Enthusiasm

larry, I can't believe you think that lena dunham of all people made a damn bit of difference to a single voter who was in play in the recent election. yeah. right. I don't get that pov and prob never will, because it is emotionally distorted balderdash.

President Donald Trump revealed his plan in the event the GOP effort fails: Allow Obamcare to fail and let Democrats take the blame, sources at the gathering told CNN.

you can see this coming a million miles away, but what's frightening is the possibility that it will work

Karl Malone, Thursday, 9 March 2017 03:56 (seven years ago) link

Allow Obamcare to fail and let Democrats take the blame

"Re-elect us because, when we had the full power of government in our hands, we failed to do a single effective thing to prevent Obamacare from failing. We blame the Democrats."

you don't even have to blame the democrats just say "see the government doesn't work, it can't work," etc. except the military of course

just say "see the government doesn't work

"Re-elect us. Because when we run the government it doesn't work any better."

She did make a difference w/i Dem coalition and Republican opposition. I very much remember reading a lot about it during the campaign. I'm using it as a symbol, too, to represent at least one aspect of what's wrong with Democratic leadership. Why would they put a slimy, unashamed criminal who's only famous because of her wealth, as their spokesperson, when out of the other side of their mouth, they say they're the opposite of this? They totally destroyed their entire position against Trump with stuff like this.

larry appleton, Thursday, 9 March 2017 04:25 (seven years ago) link

can we please just lose this fuckhead please?

Yeah, I'm offering you guys professional insight. Don't like it, I'll stop, but it's not coming from outer space.

larry appleton, Thursday, 9 March 2017 04:29 (seven years ago) link

outer space. the best space.

but you're qualifying the degree to which it can "work" and that's not really the point of their ideology and strength. proving it wrong takes vision and commitment that i don't really think the democratic party is capable of providing but maybe i'm wrong anyway i'm going to bed

One may as well ask why HBO would put a slimy, unashamed criminal who's only famous because of her wealth, as the star of a show they produce and promote and to whom they pay a handsome sum to be associated with? Wouldn't that be completely insane of them?

Here's a thought. Perhaps it is because your slimy unabashed characterization of her is not universally accepted as "reality".

It's right in a book she published. Regardless, it's a symbol for what's wrong with the Democrats, they're arrogant, careless, and totally disconnected from the American public with no values beyond keeping their own luxury, and shut down anyone who confronts them about this. Not exactly an inspiring opposition to the Republicans.

larry appleton, Thursday, 9 March 2017 04:34 (seven years ago) link

she made a funny show

she's also one of the most annoying, neurotic celebrity shitheads in America

both can be true, it's showfolk

Supercreditor (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 9 March 2017 04:36 (seven years ago) link

There are a lot of people out there who care more about life than funny TV shows. "You're not one of us," is what the Democrats said to the majority of Americans out there. It's what they've been saying for years. Great message.

Yeah, whatever dudes, guess I'll just keep collecting big paychecks for doing this shit for the world's biggest corporations. You guys and the Democrats are fucking morons. No wonder we're in this shit right now.

larry appleton, Thursday, 9 March 2017 04:41 (seven years ago) link

larry, ilx had a very long thrashing out of that book and she did not come off very well in it, but lena dunham figures as a very minor B-list celebrity in the real lives of 99% of Americans and vast swathes of the country don't even know who she is, let alone debate the exact granularity of her past sexual sins.

She's a bit player and you're inflating her far beyond anything "real" while flogging how we all are out of touch with reality. Go ahead and tell all of us how you represent the views of millions of people we never met. We'll believe you based solely on the level of angst you project. Yes. Surely you are right, even if no one can see any reason why.

why talk to the unfunny troll sock? just make it go away.

If this represents the quality of the shit you hand them, then you're making out like a bandit.

this bit of news alone will sustain his popularity in the eyes of some people:

The number of undocumented immigrants caught along the southwest United States border fell significantly last month, which the Trump administration said Wednesday was a sign that its hard line on illegal immigration might already be discouraging border crossers.

Roughly 840 people a day were caught or stopped from entering the United States from Mexico in February, according to Customs and Border Protection, a drop of about 36 percent from the previous February.

Just as significant, the number was down about 39 percent from January, a reversal of a yearslong trend of apprehensions increasing in February as the temperature begins to rise and more people try to cross the border.

The data is likely to please supporters of President Trump and could let him take credit for quickly making good on his promise to clamp down on illegal immigration. “The early results show that enforcement matters, deterrence matters, and that comprehensive immigration enforcement can make an impact,” John F. Kelly, the homeland security secretary, said in a statement.

Where do you think that insane Pizzagate stuff comes from?

Well, in so far as Pizzagate comes from "These people are UNLIKE us: They have dark senses of humour, they like art that makes us feel funny, they use turns of phrase that you don't see on the talk shows", then yeah this is where it comes from. That's fine - a Pizzagate-friendly world is not a good goal.

You think people like the whole "yeah, we don't give a fuck about you or your values" stuff?

In so far as "your values" encode as "we don't give a fuck about you", then yeah, fair enough. Particularly those values that are simpatico with calling a famous jew slimy and greasy.

so larry appleton has developed from being a grizzled, cynical veteran of unimaginable, unnamed and apparently therapy-resistant horror a few weeks ago to a being a previously-unmentioned corporate pr guru now
