Marvel Comics executives said it was a natural to put the 44th president in a heroic context.
“When we heard that President-Elect Obama is a collector of Spider-Man comics, we knew that these two historic figures had to meet in our comics’ Marvel Universe,” says Marvel’s Editor-in-Chief Joe Quesada. “Historic moments such as this one can be reflected in our comics because the Marvel Universe is set in the real world. A Spider-Man fan moving into the Oval Office is an event that must be commemorated in the pages of ‘Amazing Spider-Man.’”
There’s plenty of presidential history in the comics, such as the time that JFK appeared in the pages of Superman (the issue was written and drawn before Kennedy’s 1963 assassination but actually hit stands after that dark day in Dallas) and Richard Nixon’s 1972 cameos in “The Fantastic Four” and in “The Incredible Hulk.”
When will they have the titanic battle between Sarah (‘it’s everybody else’s fault’) Palin and Caroline (‘uh, you know’) Kennedy for who can give the worst interview?

Of course. The whole plan is pretty much useless.
If they want to get the economy going get rid of the Fed system, slash all tax rates, get rid of Cap gains tax (like China) and the economy will rebound within a year. No “stimulus” package needed.

Gosh, ‘tempt. You’ll forgive me if I still request something to back that statement up. A link to the Faux Spews article making this claim would do just fine.
Or does “reported on Faux Spews” mean that Loofah Pad O’Reilly or Sean Handjobbity said something to that effect in one of their spittle-flecked tirades?
In any case, I searched the Faux Spews web site (just as I’ve been using The Google to search the entire internet) to find evidence of even a CLAIM (proof not even required, btw, just a CLAIM) that what you allege happened did in fact happen. Not even a whimper.

Oh no! The nigras, workin’ for the hebes! Who could have predicted it?? The End Times are near!!
#19=It was reported on Fox News that between 20 to 25 Minnesota precincts reported more votes than registered voters.
The report was at 25 last time i saw it come up on the that pundit thingie they do in the morning. Looks like MM owes you an apology.

>>Looks like MM owes you an apology.
True, but that’s not gonna happen. Drama Queen Mustard’s assessment of political events prove time and time again to be sheep-like.
If an idea is not approved by a leader of the Democrat Party then it has to be wrong. Quite sad when you think about it.
Spiderman isn’t the only liberal to shoot a white stick substance over Obama.

Well hot damn, Froggie! If this allegation is true, that marks the end of Franken’s bid for the Senate seat!! Surely something as devoutly wished for by Faux Spews would merit a link, a citation, even a little whisper, on their web site, don’t you agree?
Since I don’t generally watch Faux Spews (I find the Simpsons to be a more fair and balanced reporting of the news), I missed the “pundit” making that allegation. And I’ve been unable to verify such a claim, even with extensive use of The Google.
So until there’s some verification of this voter fraud, it remains an elusive bit of unverifiable ephemera, similar to me saying “I heard Bill O’Reilly admit on Fox News that he takes it up the ass from Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity in debauched homosexual three-way love fests”.
So. Pony up some verification, or join ‘tempt in the liars’ penalty box.

My oh my. You’re a resiliant little bastard, I’ll grant you that.
In spite of the supreme humiliation you have suffered for having made an outlandish claim that you can’t back up, you put on the game face and come back to post again. It amazes me that you’re not wimpering in the corner of your broom closet. A lesser liar would not have your self-sacrificing relentlessness.
Kudos to you! You’re one tough mofo!

Still living in your imaginary world? It’s time to come out of your weasel hole and take a breath of reality. I’m not sure it will do any good, but you can try. You can try.

Oh, help me then, ‘tempt. Don’t be so ‘temptuous of my well being! I beseech thee!
Just provide that link (or other supporting evidence) of your claim, and you will be my ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. You’ll be my month of May, when it’s cold outside! Please. Pretty please with sugar on top! Remove from me the shroud of ignorance.
In the alternative, STFU, and admit that you’re a liar. And that you just made up that whole silly (albeit quantitative) scenario about Franken “stealing votes” from Coleman, and Minnesota precints that reported more votes cast than voters registered.
TIA

You pose an impossible task as nothing can remove your shroud of ignorance. That seems to be your lot in life.
>>Just provide that link
Here we have a problem. Knowing how much you wish it and how much it pisses you off when I don’t makes it all the sweeter. I suppose that is the price you pay for being such an asshole.
