A McCain Outpost in Blue Park Slope
Hey, don’t assume that Park Slope will go blue on November 4th. Four brownstones on 11th Street are adorned with McCain signs (though residents had to travel to New Jersey to get them). Writes the NY Times, “The election district that includes 11th Street has 643 registered voters: 51 of them Republicans, 452 Democrats, 23…
Hey, don’t assume that Park Slope will go blue on November 4th. Four brownstones on 11th Street are adorned with McCain signs (though residents had to travel to New Jersey to get them). Writes the NY Times, “The election district that includes 11th Street has 643 registered voters: 51 of them Republicans, 452 Democrats, 23 in other parties and 117 who did not list a party. That breakdown is echoed by the overwhelmingly Democratic makeup of Assembly District 52, as well as that of Brooklyn, which voted 79 percent for Senator John Kerry in 2004.” The McCain supporters are old school Slopers, writes the Times: residents from long before the Manhattan exodus who say the block was full of Roman Catholics and firemen when they arrived. But donkeys and elephants alike seem to be getting along: old and new, Obama and McCain-lovers. As one Democratic neighbor said about his neighbor’s signs, “To me, that says the person’s possibly open to some dialogue.

Good revisionist writing there cmu. Mr. “why are Americans so obsessed with bathrooms”.
You have ranted on several posts of the absurdity of powder rooms on parlor floors and the need for separate bathrooms etc etc, either you are from a very rich American family and you are rejecting your roots or you are from the modern republic of katzkatistan.
I guess you have problems with reading, sam? I said 2-1/2 not 2 baths were a waste in a 2-bed apt.
I don’t plan on being in woods with you either, nightmarish thought.
cmu = a family doesn’t need more than one bathroom.
Yeah, like you’re really the pied piper I will follow out of the woods, not!
“The most wasteful mismanaged circus I have ever seen is at the Time Warner ‘Customer Service’ Center in Brooklyn”
Not bloody fair, fsrg, railing against inefficient private enterprise (in comparison to the standard bogey-man, “govt bureaucracy”) is usually MY prerogative.
So we agree on something?
Iae, let’s just say the jury duty issue is one few agree with. I’m still looking for a lawyer to file a class-action suit on my behalf for unlawful detention…
Thanks for responding without calling me an anti Semite.
I’m saying that all of the candidates exist on 1 plane and in one mindset. Do Jews -control- all 3 candidates? No.
But the game plan for all 3 is the same.
Capital, religion and our political system has a rigid set of rules. No candidate can ever stray.
AIPAC influence is merely one cog in the wheel.
Prodigal Son,
I don’t get it your AIPAC connection.
Are you saying that Jews control all three candidates?
Influence is one thing. Control is another.

I got tired of reading all these posts. You are all a bunch of douchebags for making this so long. Now go douche it!
Ironballs,
Thanks for (finally) elaborating on why Hil is different than Obama. I’m still hardly convinced.
On the morning after Obama won the nomination, 3 powerful political candidates all attended an AIPAC meeting.
AIPAC. They couldnt even rest for a day. They ALL had to be there.
Obama, Clinton and McCain. All tentacles of the same octopus.
