Usually contents to stick with date rape and voter fraud, every now and again those crazy pols go out and 'get up in someone's face' Dateline London- Mayor Ken Livingstone is accused of manhandeling his pregnant girl friend for smoking. Later in a drunken rage he threw a younger man down the stairway at a posh North London bash. Well this reporter says its about time Labour (with a u) got a pair.
Years ago a congressman, Collor (father of the ex-president), pulled his gun and shot dead one of his political enemies. This was done during one Congress section, in front of everyone else. He was not arrested and finished his mandate.
Awhile ago some politician shot himself in the face on live TV. I think he was a congressman and his name was Bud something-or-other. He had just got busted in some kind of scandal. So he set up a press conference were he admitted to the whole thing. Then, right there in front of all the news cameras and reporters, he hold up a manilla envelope containing all the details of his crimes, and opens his drawer. All of a sudden you hear people yelling of camera "NO! DON'T DO IT!", as he takes his hand out of the drawer revealing a gun. "NO! NO!" they yelled as he put the gun in his mouth... BLAMMO There's even footage of this floating around on the internet.
DarkUnderlord claims to work in a political office. Back in our exile on Dimensions of Arcanum DarkUnderlord said he had discovered a big secret that his boss would reveal in a parliament session. Even after so called secret became public he refused to tell us about it. Now this. What do you think? a) he deals with so important things that in truth he is the mastermind of a secret organization which rules the world b) he is the Australian equivalent of 007 c) he is a lying scumbag who should be shot on sight d) he is a 5 year-old kid with delusions of grandeur e) he is schizophrenic
Red Ken (that's his nickname because of his heavy bias toward socialism) is one of the most popular and down-to-earth politicians in Britain. He generally takes a pretty no-nonsense attitude to answering bullshit press questions, so some papers are going pretty hard with this one. It's not clear yet whether Ken actually did anything, or the guy just lost his balance and slipped on the stairs while Ken was near him.
It all depends on how you define "success" to a politician. If you define it as your likelyhood of having a job after the next election, then Clinton was a success, despite his personal life. If he had been allowed to run for a third term, I'd bet all the money I won from Fatman's touting of Korea that he'd win again.
Our pollies get busted for all sorts of strange things over here...one guy admitted to having sex in the Speaker's chair in the Northern Territory Parliament with his girlfriend (the Speaker is like the guy in charge of Parliament sessions)...some people got busted for dumping milk in Parliament here in Queensland because they were protesting something or other to do with milk funnily enough (hahaha, get it?). Things like that.
If I and you common people do the same thing these pol do our ass will be in trouble. I hear Bill Clinton even slept with the demomcate female mayor to have than arrest for drug selling delete from record but the cop kept than back up copy.
WTF are you a total $%^&**^!@##$%^%$#@^$%^ or what?!?!? Good job, but is this launguage appropriate for younger audiences?
Yes. We've had and have 'younger' audiences here - most are okay, some are idiots though, and shouldn't be allowed to wake each morning, but if they come here, they inherently accept the inherent risks associated with reading messages written by adults. If their parents don't like it they should stop them, instead of blaming their kids problems on everyone else accept themselves.
Re: WTF The kid nowday use the same langauge anyway. The word ass was what came to my mind while writeing the post. I donot have time to go to reference book to find than other word that have the same meaning.
