Hmm. Come to think of it, "caste" would kinda work equally well. But it's good to see that you picked up on the most important issue here: my typo.
Squirrel!
So, kind of like a Stranger editorial meeting or its readership. BTW Goldy, you know Bellevue is more diverse than Cap Hill right?
And yet, no diversity received the invite.
The Stranger/SLOG is a partisan publication. It regularly favors Democrats and lambasts Republicans regardless of the quality of the person or their statements.
Why should a Democrat publication be allowed into a Republican function?
Then why should the Seattle Times be invited to a Democratic function? And yet they are.
Moreover, only lickspittles are non-partisan. Anyone who may have even the tiniest furrow in his or her brow is, of course, a partisan, and can be safely ignored. Phew! For a moment there I thought I might have to think or something! LOLZ! Like THAT would happen!
Is there any aspect of your life not dominated by propaganda?
Look at one point the Nixon campaign realized that Hunter Thompson, a registered Republican, was not exactly reporting in their best interest and they took away his seat on the plane.
People aren't dumb, you know.
How else would you explain those Sarah Palin fuckwits who attempt to rewrite historical facts to match her grievous historical errors? Furthermore, how do you explain Sarah Palin? Glenn Beck? Michele Bachman? D U M B pretty much covers it for all of them, though they’ve also taken a good turn through the I G N O R A N T trough too.
"So I joined the P-I's Chris Grygiel and PubliCola's Josh Feit in walking down the hall to a scheduled press conference where I was unceremoniously stopped at the door. "
Goldy was kicked out of the press conference after, not the actual event.
You should apply for a job at the Stranger.
That is why Josh gets in and Goldy doesn't. Do a search of Josh's posts on McKenna and you will see what I mean.
Butz resigned his cabinet post on October 4, 1976 after a second gaffe. News outlets revealed a racist remark he made in front of entertainer Pat Boone and former White House counsel John Dean while aboard a commercial flight to California following the Republican National Convention. The October 18, 1976 issue of Time reported the comment while obscuring its vulgarity:[4]
Butz started by telling a dirty joke involving intercourse between a dog and a skunk. When the conversation turned to politics, Boone, a right-wing Republican, asked Butz why the party of Lincoln was not able to attract more blacks. The Secretary responded with a line so obscene and insulting to blacks that it forced him out of the Cabinet last week and jolted the whole Ford campaign. Butz said: "I'll tell you what the coloreds want. It's three things: first, a tight pussy; second, loose shoes; and third, a warm place to shit."
After some indecision, Dean used the line in Rolling Stone, attributing it to an unnamed Cabinet officer. But New Times magazine enterprisingly sleuthed out Butz's identity by checking the itineraries of all Cabinet members.
I'd love to see McKenna's detailed response to the crisis that led to this year's disaster of a budget. Not just rhetoric, but a line-by-line explanation of where the money was going to come from for what we have now, let alone billions more of it. There's a reason Gregoire looks like she's been hit by a truck; she pretty much has.
The bottom line is McKenna's a liar.
But excluding the stranger is a huge mistake since they hold such high opinion in Seattle.
And to The Stranger editor: I'm actually interested in what you guys have to say about McKenna when you're on top of your political game. So about assigning an adult to cover his campaign.
@26: "Reality doesn't get invited to the press conference."
Well done.
