1 This bill is such a porkfest a list of Democrats that have any reputation for fiscal sanity might be more help.

(My Senators (WA) are more likely to demand something larger, so I demanded more skittle-shitting unicorns er, I mean, I demanded 100GW of windmills.)

2

I think you can add mine: Dr. Tom Coburn and James Inhofe.

(Do I have to tell you which group?)

3 Inhofe and Coburn were both reported as firmly oppose.

4 While probably "squishy", I doubt Chambliss will break with all those that came to save his hide in the run-off.  Is there a "semi-firm" catagory?

(Nothing ANY Politician does these days can surprise me anymore, hence the "semi-firm" copout)

5

Dammit Voinovich! You fucking pussy! I e-mailed his bitch ass last night and I'm going to e-mail him again in about two minutes. I'm damned proud of Ohio but this cocksucker is FUCKING IT UP!

GRRRRRR!!!

6 Anybody seen that South Park episode where the zombies walk around asking for change. Reminds me a lot of the 2008 election.

7 Good God, Kay Bailey? Is Texas this fucked up now? She voted against Eric Holder. 

8 Good for McCain and Graham.

What the rest of these clowns need to realize is that this is simply the first spending package. Just wait 'til SuperGenius Tim Geithner comes asking for TARP III (I say give it 60 days). Then there's probably going to be an HOLC-like vehicle to turn the federal government into the worlds biggest landlord. Then, once they realize that even using the best leftist theory there's not enough actual stimulus in this current 'recovery' act to stop deflation, Zero's going to be back asking for a do-over.

You have to be tough on this bill to keep them honest. If you don't take a principled stand against the waste and pork now, the upcoming bills will be worse.

WTF!!!  ALEXANDER!!!  I've called that mother-fucker every day this week.  Of course his staff NEVER tells you which way the wind's blowing inside his empty head.  BUT WTF!!

Got it covered.  If that SOB doesn't get his head on straight real quick I'll make it my personal mission in life to make him regret two things.  The day he was born and the day he was elected to Congress. 

10

I'm so very tired, already, and we're only 19 days into the Obama administration. I wish that our Senators would listen to their consciences and do what is right for the country.

I haven't bothered to contact my 2, there's no way either one of them would ever deviate from the Democrat party line. They live and breathe that shit day in and day out.

And there's no way we'll ever get anything but 2 Democrat senators here in Washington state. So, I envy those of you who at least have a Republican that's still in the fight.

11 Gee, I wonder where the Carnahan Cunt will come out on this.

Yeah.  I wonder.

12 Wow, I didn't realize that Alexander was shaky. I'll have to give him a call on Monday morning and encourage him to do the right thing.

13 I just read that they are going to vote this weekend.  We should probably be making calls now.

14 I wish that our Senators would listen to their consciences.

Failing that, just in case they don't have one, they might try listening to us.  Just a thought.

15

@8 Robert, give it 6 days.

16 Local radio station said all day that Voinadick is not voting for this bill.  With him you never know....He loved SCHIP. Asshole!

17 Cassy noted that Hutchinson and Cornyn are "no answers", so to be on the safe side I just sent them both emails and told them not to come back to Texas if they don't vote correctly.

I am already furious with Cornyn for his Geithner and Billary votes. At least Hutchinson manages to get it right on Geithner.

Cassy, if you make it here... NICE WORK!! If I ever meet you in person, I promise to buy you all the Val-U-Rite you can drink in an evening and take you out hobo hunting.

18 Where is Michael Steele in all of this?  Is he working the wussypants squishy Republicans who are still not decided?  This is a perfect time for him to step up and show us his conservative principles.  Am I holding my breath?  Yeah, right.

Angry White Dude

19 All this economic insanity almost makes me miss Ron Paul.  Almost.

20 I am looking for a list of squishy Dems who can be contacted also.  If anyone has seen one let me know.

21 I can only leave so many goddamn voicemails.

22 WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama and Senate Republicans bickered Saturday over his historically huge economic recovery plan after states and schools lost tens of billions of dollars in a late-night bargain to save it.


Everything Barry does is historic. Including pissing money away.


"That was, after all, what last November's election was all about," he said.


I'll bet Barry uses that line for the next 4 years. Typical spoiled child.

23

Alexander better get that taste of WAGYU steak out of his mouth real fast!!!

I'm so pissed I'm not writing anything tonight, they'd be knocking onmy door before the sun comes up.

24 RB, tragically, you're probably right.

25 @10 paranoid in seattle - Sorry to hear you live behind the iron curtain.

26

If Kay Bailey Hutchison votes yes on this bill, she shouldn't even file papers for a run at Governor.

Who knows what Cornyn will do, he voted for Geithner.

27 @22

Are you shitting me?

"...after states and schools lost tens of billions of dollars in a late-night bargain to save it."

What cum gargling asshat wrote this and how do I find out where he/ she sleeps, so I can make sure that there's a severed unicorn head waiting for them in bed.

28 I'm sexually attracted to young boys.

29 #17 Just followed your lead.

30 FWIW, Norm Coleman's opposed. Of course, he also say's he's keeping "informated."

Maybe he could vote absentee?

(It's amazing how firm you can sound when you can't, you know, actually, like, do anything.)

31 The Huffington Post said back on the 23rd that the new NY senator opposed the bill.  If that remains true then Reid actually needs 4 GOP votes not just 3. 

32 "Where is Michael Steele in all of this?"

He's busy firing all the old squishy RNC staffers.

33

34 I just sent Kay Bailey a nice email telling her she might as well cancel her campaign for governor if she votes yes on this.  I will send every penny I can to any opponent she has if she votes yes, even if it means supporting Perry again.

35 [Due to cutbacks, we can no longer dedicate bandwidth to the ramblings of retards.]

36 I wish that our Senators would listen to their consciences constituents and do what is right for the country.

Fixed it fer ya...

37 Arlen Specter admitted that calls to his office are overwhelmingly against the bill but he's voting for it anyway.  So much for him representing the people of PA. 

38 Would anyone here like his balls fondled? I've been watching Barney Frank on TV, and my cock is harder than Japanese arithmetic.

39 I am sorry that you all seem displeased with American politics. Have a cookie and some milk.

A few notes.

Milk washes down cookies a lot better than rancid pork.

"Displeased" isn't quite strong enough to describe the undercurrent of rage flowing through here, and at a lot of other places mind you, over the thought of our elected officials raping the next generations for some huge helpings of rancid pork and a chance at fellating the new President. 

Besides, I thought dissent was patriotic, no?  Oh, I see, "dissent is patriotic" until a democrat occupies the White House and democrats occupy both houses of Congress.

40 I love the taste of semen. Just thought I'd throw that in there.

41

Local radio station said all day that Voinadick is not voting for this bill.

What's your location? I've been listening to 610 all day and haven't heard that. It is encouraging news but Voinovich might get all hormonal and start crying again. Where the hell is Boehner? Why isn't he on FoxNews ripping ass right now?

42 Specter was always a jackhole.

My first description of  Senator Specter came from my grandfather about a decade+ ago.  He told me that Specter votes as a democrat for the first five years of his term and then acts as a semi-Republican in the election year.  As always, my grandfather proved correct.

And then now there's the shadow of "Thills up my leg" Matthews becoming the next Senator from PA.  I'm so glad that in the end, there will be only chaos...

43

Where the hell is Boehner? Why isn't he on FoxNews ripping ass right now?

Speaking of ripping ass, has anyone seen my buttplug?

44 Yeah, that rage thing is only acceptable for Democrats.

45 The trolls want to play.

Let them play with themselves.

46

Let's think about how this episode might be viewed 100 years from now...

The media will again be looked upon by objective eyes as being completely corrupted and dishonest, as they were during the time of the USSR. Lying cocksuckers all of them.

The congresspeople will be seen as idiots, complete idiots who smile and laugh as they do things that they haven't pondered the effects of doing to the general populace.

What will the result of this shitpile be?

I have a degree in economics from a Big Ten school. I didn't ace every test, but I can see a gigantic fucking econo-political mistake when I see one that has layer upon layer of bad economics and bullshit decision-making.

It is FUCKING ELEMENTARY ECONOMICS THAT THEY ARE HAVE GOTTEN WRONG AND ARE AGAIN GETTING WRONG.

And as far as I am concerned, the Democrats over the last fifty fucking years deserve every molecule of blame for these problems. I don't expect idiot liberals who fawn over some idiot in sunglasses and masturbate over covers of People magazine to understand shit. They have educations in nothingness.

It is absofuckinglutely amazing how we went from the media fucks bitching about borrowing from China, er deficit spending , to the same idiots PUSHING this kind of whaleshit, acting as a fucking PR firm for the faggot in chief.

History will look on these fucking shitbags with pity, I hope dearly.

47 Our side needs more rage. We keep trying to be chummy and respectful with the other side while the go on burning down our country and calling us the terrorists.

Screw it. I am done with being nice. Look where it's gotten us. Even McCain opened up the can of whoopass last night.

What cum gargling asshat wrote this and how do I find out where he/ she sleeps, so I can make sure that there's a severed unicorn head waiting for them in bed.


It was the AP. Want more?

Still, the popular president — six in 10 voters approve of his performance so far — scolded Republicans with a pointed reminder that Democrats, not Republicans, were victorious in November.

Wasn't the most popular president ever at 83% popularity about a week ago? Would seem that his popularity is sinking fast.

49 Wow, Mike Huckabee has come out swinging.   He is having Kay Bailey Hutchinson on his program.   He cited several "porks" in the bill such as redecorating the commerce department.   (so now we know what Gregg is supposed to do)

50 Kay Bailey is about to be on the Huckabee show on Fox to talk about the spendulus. I don't know when they tape the show and if it's current, but her segment will come up pretty soon.

51 He is begging his viewers to contact their representatives and stand up and speak out.  He says he has all the contact information for everyone on his website.

52

scolded Republicans with a pointed reminder that Democrats, not Republicans, were victorious in November.

...that argument makes no sense!  Every politician in Washington was victorious in their last election (well except for the ones appointed by Governors).

53 I won, bitches!   Obey Me unquestioningly!  Obey Me, else my unicorns will  aerate you with their grand horns of death!

54

Good God, Kay Bailey? Is Texas this fucked up now?

My Sen. Hutchinson sent me a response to my email a while back re: not spending my tax dollars on the Big 3. She replied that she didn't want to use TARP funds, but instead, she was all for using $25 billion in funds already dedicated to the DOE for energy research and give it all to the auto industry - wtf. I guess she thinks that Federal Government money is just one giant slush fund that can be used however they want, whenever they want.

Why do they even bother with separate bills? They might as well just create a bill that says, "Print $10 trillion to be used in any way we want, now or in the future." What the hell? 

55 Nickless, that troll doesn't want to play, he's employed by ACORN.  He has a quota of snark he has to deliver every day to collect his paycheck.  It's a hit and run kinda thing. You won't hear from him again tonight, he's already on his way to the B&B to hang out on the corner with his buddies and smoke a little crack.

56 @TheQuietMan

Fucking AP... that is possibly the most repulsive piece of shit article I have ever seen.

Screw this. When we're done thrashing our Congress Critters, I say it's time for all of us to start writing some Op Eds and thrashing this in the media.

57 he's already on his way to the B&B to hang out on the corner with his buddies and smoke a little crack. pole.

FIFY.

58 #55

I was hoping that the smoke would dissipate soon.  Thanks for the confirmation.

59

Please explain to me why a Senator would listen to  someone in the house of representatives?

Don't let petty political questions ruin this moment. You, sir, are the first Liberal to call me a rightwing nut job. Evah. To me, this creates a bond between us. You know, like brothers.

I would actually like to hug you. Not in a gay brother incest way but a manly hug. Maybe with a chest bump. Fist bumps are for fags tho, no offense.

You're not Smoke anymore, you're my Bro!

60

This is what I sent to my Texas Senators and Representative today:

The stimulus bill being worked on in Washington is disgraceful and will cause long-term and likely irreparable damage to the United States. The bill is full of pork and ridiculus spending. It is nothing more than an expansion and consolidation of Federal Government power and has little (if anything) to do with the economy.

TARP (and TARP II coming soon) should be scrapped. Using my tax dollars to pay for exec bonuses of failed financial institutions is outrageous. Those execs should be in jail - not being rewarded.

And I don't want a penny of my tax dollars ever used for the Big 3 auto industry. They deserve to go under for decades of mismanagement and the insanity of the UAW.

Also, how can Americans have ANY confidence in the Treasury Department when a tax cheat is now at the helm? Geithner should be in jail. No way should he be the head of the IRS.

Washington DC is completely out of control. The actions taken this past month alone will almost assure that the US and the world goes into a long depression.

Print money. Spend it (mostly in buying votes). Create more bureaucracy to "manage" (i.e. waste) it. Raise taxes. Repeat. This seems to be the ONLY solution that anyone in Washington can come up with anymore - but it isn't a solution. Spend, spend, spend, spend, spend, and never once thinking of changing structures or processes or coming up with new ideas. When you are in a hole digging faster doesn't help.

Choosing security over liberty is never a good trade-off. There seems to be no leadership in Washington anymore. America is heading for failure and Obama is using scare tactics? At least FDR was truly a leader (even though his policies were a disaster). How can you expect the American public to have any confidence in Washington DC?
 

61 I rub my nipples and moan whenever Obama speaks.

62

@ 46  History will look on these fucking shitbags us with pity,

How do you say it?  There fixed that for you.

63 40 Dissent is patriotic, undercurrent of rage, not so much.

Yeah, and if there's one thing Democrats avoided over the last 8 years, it was frothing at the mouth rage.

64 Hutchison didn't sound too thrilled about the spendulus just now on the Huckabee show.

65 Specter is dead to me. So is the RNC that continues to support RINOs like him..

66 Ok, Hutchinson sounds on board.

Cornyn better get his bitch ass in line. I'm not putting up with any more of his shit. He came out swinging against Billary's confirmation, then caved like the faggot whore that he is. Then he got right in line to suck off Geithner.

Again, Cornyn- don't come back to Texas if you don't get this one right. If you get your skank ass on board right now and start publicly beating this bill like a redheaded hobo, I MAY start to forgive you.

67 Holy Cow!  So all day been waiting for someone to post a text of the bill and now Kay is saying that they haven't seen the bill either?  Is she saying that they are expected to vote on a bill they haven't seen?  And did she just say that the bill "didn't go through our normal committee process" again, like the TARP.  And did she just say that the republicans want to "take a step back and do this right, not piecemeal".    Did she just say that we have already spent a trillion between the $600 bucks for some americans and the TARP?   Did she also say they were told "to expect another trillion"?   Did she just say this is about "indebetedness,  and how are we going to pay for this?"

68 @markytom

If there is ever a vote for head of AoSHQ marketing, I vote for you.

Well done.

69

Markytom, mind if I borrow that?  Mine started off

Dear SFB, Are you a fucking hosenozzle or what?

Then I really got nasty.

Reposting for this thread:

"You know, most letters and emails are looked over by Aides, if you're lucky, and the Aide is only skimming the damned thing. Half the time, the stoopit flunky thinks you're saying vote FOR a bill, not against.

Or some email scanning program is doing the same thing.

Probably better just to write "Vote NO on ____" for both subject and body so there's less chance of a fuck up. "

Seriously.

71 Collins's email form is down and her voice mail is full...

72 Did anybody think to target their Democrat rep and pressure them to change their vote? It shouldn't just solely depend on Repubs standing firm. Put the fear of losing re-election and the blame for ths monstrosity into Dems as well! Better the chances of votes being changed by pressure more people on both sides

73 Things Zero & the Dems don't want to talk about: Report to the Secretary of the Treasury from the Treasury Borrowing Advisory Committee of the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, 02/04/2009

But the ramp up in debt issuance remains in its early stages. As the US government and also foreign governments continue their efforts to stabilize their respective economies, the supply of government and quasi-government paper will grow rapidly. The sheer magnitude of paper set to be issued raises the possibility that investors at some point will demand a concession of some sort, lifting yields in parts of the term structure beyond those justified by macro fundamentals. As a country with a current account deficit and a majority of Treasury debt held abroad, the US is more at risk of such a development than a country such as Japan where the government bond market is primarily domestically held.

'Concession of some sort' = big, giant, huge tax increases. Think Rooseveltian marginal tax rates.

74 'Concession of some sort' = big, giant, huge tax increases. Think Rooseveltian marginal tax rates.

You bet.  They're exploding the debt and taking more and more people out of paying taxes at all.  They're going to have to double taxes on the people they're already taxing the shit out of, which means that a lot of people who make money are just going to pack it in.

75 uhm er duh er uh

76

Collins's email form is down and her voice mail is full...

I did my part in that.  But I forced myself to be polite.  Even after I watched her video clip at HA where she demonstrated conclusively that she is actually stupider than many Dems, which is some feat.

Actually, a correction is in order:

Collins's email form brain is down and her voice mail mouth is full...

77 I have emailed half and after a short break will be emailing the rest of the congress critters markytom's excellent letter.

Here's a list of emails for anyone interested in joining me.

78 I wish my state had a GOP senator.

79 My first description of  Senator Specter came from my grandfather about a decade+ ago.  He told me that Specter votes as a democrat for the first five years of his term and then acts as a semi-Republican in the election year.  As always, my grandfather proved correct.

No truer words were ever spoken.  Specter is, was, and always will be an unprincipled douchebag.  And an arrogant bastard.  The title of his autobiography is "A Passion For Truth". 

And our other Senator, Milk Carton Casey, is probably worse, but since he's in the witness protection program, I wouldn't know. Pennsylvania is a mess.  Pardon the state we're in, it's the State we're in.

80

Did anybody think to target their Democrat rep and pressure them to change their vote?

Honorable thought but that is a waste of effort around here. We have a mayor that approved spending $185M to tear down a mall and build a park while the '09 class of Columbus Police have been told that the city can't afford their $1.6M collective salary.

Typical Liberal nonsense.

 

 

81  Here is a list of addition numbers for Collins.

Don't stop until we break all of her emails and phones.

82

For all you morons living behind the iron curtain -

 

BARACK OBAMA, TEAR DOWN THIS WALL!

83 "I wish my state had a GOP senator."

I wish my state had two senators....

84

@80

The beauty of Ohio is that not one major budget is based on actual monies.  Instead, all are based on the monies from this fucking stimulus bill.  Where would all of these "leaders" be if they didn't have a Dem. majority to bail them out?  I'm guessing re-elction wouldn't be looking good.

85 Is it just me, but I notice all the news articles avoid mentioning that a preponderance of the American public is against this bill.

86 Do you remember when,
the Dems were really porkin'?

Yeah, let's pork again!
Porkin' time is here!

87 Just emailed Collins.

It felt pointless; like I was trying to explain Shakespeare to a cat.

88 On second thought, if the other one turns out to be Franken, I'm happy that our representation's idiocy is not more than doubled.

So, maybe I wish my state didn't have any, if they're going to be like Klobuchar and Franken. I'd go for taxation without representation, if that's the sort of "representation" we inflict on the country.

89 Oh, and remember...

Oink!  Oink!  Oink!

90 "Concession of some sort" = higher interest rates. The TBAC is warning that all of this borrowing is going to crash the Treasury market.

91 Treasury market?!?!  whatever,  we have the printing presses, bitch! 

92 Print all you want, I got gold!

93 Guys guys guys! It is over. The Repuke's will cave when enough is given to them. They have no sense of personal pride nor patriotism. Do any of you REALLY wonder how Barry can be so "audacious" to be pushing all of this shit so soon? This is end game. The Repukes will not stand in the way of the very same black candidate they didn't have the stones to oppose in the first place.

Only one thing could save this country...

94 Quick humor break.

Clicky, click, click... all the cool kids are doing it.

95 "Only one thing could save this country..."

What's that, chaos?

96 Only one thing could save this country...

Posted by: JS at February 07, 2009 09:11 PM (G5T2i)

And that is?

97 I'll be shocked if Richard Shelby (R-AL) doesn't vote against it, especially with Jeff Sessions vocally opposed.  On the night the house Republicans voted NO, I sent him this with the Subject: Vote No on the stimulus:

Dear Senator Shelby   I request that you vote against the so-called Stimulus bill.  Tonight, the House Republicans took a bold stand in voting against this grabbag of political spoils and I want the Senate Republicans to do likewise.   Sincerely

98 Print all you want, I got gold!

What good is that going to do you?  Walmart doesn't take gold.  Last I checked you can't eat it.  I guess you can make it into braclets and try and trade it for food.  That should work until the rappers start flooding the market with their wrist thick chains and shit.

99 Anybody 'round here who uses the term "Repukes" and isn't a lefty troll can only answer that question one way:
RON PAUL!!!!!!1111!!eleventy!!1111!!

100 BTW, if you can't get a phone call through, and their email is down like Collins's, faxzero.com lets you send free faxes...

I'm just sayin'...

101

Chad, what he means is he has a piece of paper that says he owns some gold.  He could light a fire with it.

102 "if you can't get a phone call through, and their email is down like Collins's," then we're probably doing something right. I can't imagine pro-porkulus people melting the infrastructure with their messages of encouragement.

103 Ain't got gold, but I have a pantry chock full of canned goods from the last Bird Flu scare, so I'm set.

104 Is it just me, but I notice all the news articles avoid mentioning that a preponderance of the American public is against this bill.

That's because it's a Democratic bill. If it were a Republican president, the lede of every news story would be something like this:

The Republican president's deeply unpopular stimulus bill failed to get...

105 #18 -- Here's Steele's radio address:

This is Michael Steele, Chairman of the Republican National Committee. Democrats have controlled both branches of government for less than a month. And you have to wonder if all that power has gone to their heads.
"For the last two weeks, they've been trying to force a massive spending bill through Congress under the guise of economic relief.
"All of us -- Republicans and Democrats -- agree the government must act to kick-start the American economy. American families are doing their best to balance their own budgets and pay their mortgages.
"The fastest way to help those families is by letting them keep more of the money they earn. Individual empowerment: that's how you stimulate the economy.
"But the Democrats have a different philosophy. Instead of leaving money in the family checkbook, they want to send it to Washington, run it through a slow and inefficient government, and hope that does some good.
"When families keep the money, they spend it, save it, or invest it. And the private sector economy benefits when families and businesses buy consumer goods or invest it for the future. But when Washington spends the money, some of it may flow into the economy, but all too often, much gets wasted.
"Democrats in Congress want a one-trillion dollar spending bill. You've heard about the pork-barrel programs they want to fund... 45 million dollars for ATV trails and removal of fish passage barriers is one that caught my eye. Exactly what is a fish passage barrier and why does it cost 45 million dollars to stimulate the economy with it?
"That's why Republicans in the House voted against uncontrolled spending. This is not a bragging point, but rather a statement that at least Republicans would stand with the American taxpayer.
"But voting 'no' is not enough... and Republicans have offered innovative ideas to help struggling families and small businesses. We've offered plans to spark job creation and investment through lower taxes, to stop the taxation of unemployment benefits, and to help Americans keep their jobs and their homes.
"The comprehensive Republican plan would lower taxes for all working American families. If you're married, the first 16,750 dollars you make this year will be taxed at ten percent. Why don't we cut that rate in half to give instant buying power to every working American family?
"Good ideas... lots of them... all left out of this plan by the Democrats in Congress.
"Republicans stand ready to work with reasonable Democrats to do what is right for America.
"But it will take more than bipartisan words from the President. It will require fair-minded action from Democrats in Congress.

106 What good is that going to do you?  Walmart doesn't take gold.

When I want to buy something I can sell some of my gold and immediately spend the money at Walmart before inflation erodes its value.

107

That should work until the rappers start flooding the market with their wrist thick chains and shit.

So we'll kick their asses and take their chains. I have no qualms.

108 @RB

I was actually wondering about that the other day listening to a buy gold ad on KTTH here in Seattle.  How do they get the gold to you?  How do you know it isn't adultered?  Where do you spend it?  I also wondered how many people were buying gold because there has only been 150,000 tons of gold ever mined and the vast majority of that is in government hands.  (Thats about 2500 M1A1 tanks weight wise).  How much is available for private purchase.

109 Only one thing could save this country...

Posted by: JS at February 07, 2009 09:11 PM (G5T2i)

Easy there. Might want to look up how many Restorations have actually succeeded throughout history, and how. Hint: One, maybe two. History tends to go Left, and even the American Revolution was a Leftwards trending.

Sorry to be dismal and all. If you can figure out a way to package Secession as a Lefty thing and thus break up Leviathan, that might work...

110 Looks like a bunch of pretty fart smellers, to me. Fuck Em.

111 Obama would not have won election had he not promised tax cuts for 95% of americans.  He basically ran as a Republican.

This spending must be accompanied by serious tax hikes.  Right now, they will avoid that aspect, but they are coming.

Will the voters forgive that?

112 Just sent this to my senatorial representation Lamar:

******************************

Dear Senator Alexander,

You have been listed on some conservative web sites as being potentially squishy on this pork-laden piece of stimulus garbage. If not, great. No problem then.

If so, I simply promise you that if you do vote for this piece of legislation, I will take out the largest loan a recently discharged two-tour Iraq vet can get, use all of it for campaign expenses, and fight you for the Republican nomination for your seat.

Thank you in advance,
Dan
Sergeant, US Army, Retired.

113 SGT Dan -- I'm good for a tenner.

And it looks like we crashed Collins's fax, too.

114 Not pretty smart fellers. Fuck Em.

115 SGT Dan, that's a work of art.

Could you rephrase it in Haiku?

116 I am getting a tax cut.  I am.  Since I don't have a job, I won't be getting taxed as much.  And I am sure that this is Obama and all his supporters had in mind.

117 Not a squish? Great!

Just know that if you are one

I will gut your ass.

118 P.S. I'll be pleased to contribute, too, SGT.

119 Boogersnax, do you doubt the Messiah's ability to spend without raising taxes?  That's coming close to sacrilege!

Seriously, with the Cult of Personality that surrounds The One, I doubt that he'll suffer much personally.  I hope that won't be the case with the Democratic Congress in 2010, Census and Acorn shanagians notwithstanding.

"All of us -- Republicans and Democrats -- agree the government must act to kick-start the American economy..."

See? That's the problem with Michael Steele and the RNC -- they are not Conservatives, they are Democrats.

Conservatives don't "want the government to kick-start the economy." Conservatives want the government to make the adjustments necessary so that it does not hinder the free market and the American people from correcting the economy.

Conservatives know that government is never the solution and almost always the problem.

121 Since people are reporting that the lines to Susan Collins are down I am going to suggest a blitz on NY senator Kristen Gilbrand (202) 224-4451 email: finance@kirstengillibrand.com.

She has said in the past she didn't support this bill so there may be hope.

122 A friend of mine who is NOT politically active was so angry that she could not reach her democratic senator's office since Thursday that she sent me an email telling me that she sent him flowers with a card that says "Happy St. valentine's day.........VOTE NO ON THIS DAMNED BILL!!!!

123

What could go wrong electing a President who knows fucking jackshit about anything other than what a mirror is.

What a farce.

124 121,  Won't chucke prevail with her though?  And maybe hillbill?

125 I just sent Kay Bailey a nice email telling her she might as well cancel her campaign for governor if she votes yes on this.  I will send every penny I can to any opponent she has if she votes yes, even if it means supporting Perry again.

You said it for me.

126 "Obama would not have won election had he not promised tax cuts for 95% of americans. He basically ran as a Republican....Will the voters forgive that?"

Yes, that was his drumbeat and he played it to the hilt. Every ignorant O-bot bought it hook, line & sinker. When it comes down to the fact that the "95% of Americans won't get a tax cut" .... I already know the plan. And so do you. BLAME BUSH and his "failed economic policies."

127

I just fired off an email to Mel Martinez that should make him ashamed of any 'yea' cast for this pos. I never hurled an insult or a threat, but he'd have to be a moron not to realize how deeply the mere threat of this bill affects hard-working  Americans.

This bill amounts to nothing more than forced servitude where we have no choice but to pay through our own blood and sweat for what amounts to nothing more than one giant gratuity tax.

We need to get back to the 'all politics is local" if we intend to ever make any real difference in government.

Neuter the fuckers where they live.

128 We need emails and fax numbers and telephone numbers for EVERY SQUISHY AND YES REPUBLICAN AND EVERY DEMOCRAT!! Let's shut down their phone lines on Sunday ALL FUCKING DAY!! Do NOT LET UP, AMERICANS!! This bullshit will SINK our country and wreck my kids future, along with yours. I've called my Senators, but I want to know if the other states Senators will listen to folks outside their state. I'll call EVERY FUCKING SENATOR IN THE COUNTRY!! If you're with say "EAT IT!"

129 @124

From what I have read there isn't a lot of love lost between here and most of the NY Dems so maybe not.  Especially since she is from a red district and may still have some residual shame left.  She has only been a senator for a week I know they corrupt em fast bust hopefully not that fast.

130 Wow, they knew the peanuts were tainted?   Wow, the moral corruption is almost unbelievable.

131 Why doesn't Saxby Chambliss just start caucusing with the dems and get it over with.

132 Michael Steele on with Geraldo on Faux.

133 As requested - phone numbers, fax and emails

134 Fax them this image, mybe they will get the hint at what cowards they are:

135 I was actually wondering about that the other day listening to a buy gold ad on KTTH here in Seattle.  How do they get the gold to you? 

Insured mail.

How do you know it isn't adultered? 

You buy "bullion products," coins or bars from governments or banks who hopefully can be trusted, at a hefty premium over the price of gold.

Where do you spend it? 

You sell it back to the dealer you bought it from, losing your hefty premium.

I'm fondling a Krugerrand right now, but most of my gold is the "paper gold" RB disparages (GLD shares).

136 "How are we going to do it" - Bill Clinton this evening.

137 When will ya republicans finally dig' dat I won. Do ya git it? I won. That trumps what ya cocksuckers wants ta do. So sit down, shutup, an' deal wiff it. I see ya republicans in 2012. What the fuck sup now?

138 Where do you spend it? 

You sell it back to the dealer you bought it from, losing your hefty premium.

That doesn't seem like a very good deal. 

I always kind of liked Harvey Randall's plan in Lucifer's Hammer.  Stock up on luxury food stuffs and sell it after the crash of society.  Or follow the Reverend Armitage plan and eat your neighbors.  Or (and this would probably be optimum) combine the two and eat well spiced neighbors.

139 Why is there a billion dollars in the bill for minority outreach for the census?

140 139 Why is there a billion dollars in the bill for minority outreach for the census?

Payoff to ACORN.  The brownshirts need to be kept busy in the off-season.

141 I don't think I can ever eat a peanut product again.  Ugh disgusting

142 I emailed my two Missouri senators. I hope Bond votes no, but with him not running for reelection in 2010, only God knows what that man is thinking. My other MO senator, who is a dem btw, will most assuredly vote yes all the while licking barry's hairy ass. She will probably email me with some shit saying the bill will help starving kids and cute little bunny rabbits or some shit like that.

143 I wonder if ACORN will perform the Census like they did voter registration.  Make people up and make them all minorities.

144

I have emailed Claire McCaskill three times (which won't do anything at all).  I continue to email Kit Bond to remind him that he is in his last two years as a Senator and he owes it to the people in the state of Missouri to vote "No" on this bill.  Yes, KC, St. Louis and Columbia are Blue, but the rest of the damn state is Red.  Remember ACORN hit us hard in KC, so I wasn't surprised that the race was so close in my state.

Someone said that we should also email and call our Governor's and tell them that we think this is a bunch of crapola, too.  They will get mighty tired of the onslaught.  Unfortunately Missouri elected Jeremiah "the cheat" Nixon to office, but it would be kind of fun to make his Monday really miserable. ;-)

145 Ginger, hello to a fellow Missourian!

146 I hit my Democrat VA senators emails.  I know they'll vote yes anyway, but at least maybe in 20 years they'll blow their fucking brains out from guilt.

147 If you contact anybody in Congress, especially Gillibrand, make sure you include this:

"Remember Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky"

148 Hey Nancy! Where in Missouri are you located? I'm in North KC.

149 Claire McCaskill is dumber than a box of rocks, so I don't expect much of anything from her.  She used ACORN in St. Louis to win her seat, so I don't expect her to buck her "crush" Barry.

150 I am 20 miles west of Columbia.  Raised in Gladstone, though. 

151 Everyone should keep calling, but if you want to really do something that will have an impact go ask a well-known person who supports the plan a question on video that makes them look bad.

For instance, you may have seen the recent video where John Sweeney was asked a question he couldn't answer. It would be like that, but with an even better question and with someone who'd press the issue.

Get a really good video that makes someone look very bad, and it will get hundreds of thousands or millions of views. And, it doesn't have to be a Senator; it could be one of their aides, or a pundit even.

If you can't do that yourself, then start writing major bloggers asking them to urge their readers to do it.

There's a general guide to asking real questions at my name's link.

152 I still can't believe that this fucking monster is at this point already. Fuck, liberals don't beat around the bush.

153 Nancy, I live about 10 miles east of Gladstone.

154 I always kind of liked Harvey Randall's plan in Lucifer's Hammer.  Stock up on luxury food stuffs and sell it after the crash of society.

I'd stock up on cigarettes, and I don't smoke.

155 Ginger, it's nice to meet you.  Hopefully, we can keep Kit Bond on the up and up.  McCaskill is a lost cause. 

156 Nancy, I'm worried about robin carnahan in 2010, as you know the carnahans are like the kennedy family of Missouri. If carnahan is elected, we will be the mirror image of California. God help us then.

157 Stocking up on ciarettes is a given.  When they start adding that SCHIP tax, noone will be able to buy them legally.  Hell, they will be worth so much, you just might be able to trade them for gold.

158 I, too worry about Carnahan.  She will probably win, unless we get a really strong Republican to run against her.  I know Kenny Hulshoff will probably throw his hat in the ring, but I'm not sure he is the right guy.

159 Conservatives can live in peace and prosperity with Moderates, and can tolerate Liberals to a point.

Moderates tolerate Conservatives and Liberals.

But, Liberals can't abide anybody who is not one of them.

The only durable and sensible answer is to physically separate Liberals from the rest of us.

They need and truly deserve their own country.

Give them all of New England, New York below Albany, and the Eastern Seaboard down to NC.

If their way of life works, then that territory should easily suffice.

Once they are gone the United States of America will right itself and sail on true and steady.

I voted for Obama, ....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErjOsxAo2dc

161 It's sad that I think that Senator Kristen Gilbrand has a marginally better chance of considering voting no against this abomination than my two jackhole Senators from PA: Specter and Casey

162 I would like my Congressman Sam Graves to run against carnahan. He is a true conservative. The only thing is that he does not have the name recognition. I bet Blunt will get the nomination for the Republicans.

163 Eman,

What about California? Especially san fran.

164 Ginger,

I think California is going to fall into the sea both figuratively (lots of public debt, poor business environment) and literally (the Big One - with the decadence of Hollywood facilitating the event).  Perhaps that's why eman neglected CA from his plan.

Note:  I have nothing personal against CA.

165

Sam Graves is my Congressman and he would be super!  He actually votes his conscience and listens to his constituents.  Really, you think Blunt will?  Jeremiah "the cheat" Nixon has some dirt on him, though, so I'm not sure how that will go. 

 

166

Due to popular demand, the current "situmulus bill of 2009" Has been renamed to a more accurate description. From this moment forth, it will be reffered to as "the Obama re-election Bill". As it is written,  so it shall be

We now return you to your regularly broadcast corruption 

167 Good luck with Gillibrand.

She's already 'grown' on immigration, I can't imagine there's a chance in the world she'd buck the leadership, especially her sponsor Schumer on this (or anything of import over the next 4 years).

168

If Hutchison & Cornyn vote for this bill, then we will vote them out.

Overstimulating the economy into another depression? Not in my name!

169 Gillibrand's voicemail was full earlier today.  I don't have fax or e-mail.  I e-mailed Chuckie Schumer and got the standard e-mail response.

170 I also heard Sarah Steelman may throw her hat in the ring. I don't know much about her, to make my opinion.

171 We'll probably find Collins' communications outlets fixed by tomorrow or Monday morning. So we have to keep that up.

As for Gillibrand, good luck. She started flipping as soon as she hit the Capitol. Still, I emailed her in case she has an ounce of dignity left. 

172

O/T

Did you know that Obama signed an E.O. today that restricts the bidding on any Federal funding constuction projects to only union based companies?  That basically just fucked over 25,000 non-union companies.  I thought that his slogan was "yes WE can", not "well, er, um, the unions and ACORN and Pelosi can...I guess?!"

173 If this thing does pass, conservative radio and bloggers have to keep pointing out the pork bills in it. Zero, Dems and the MSM would like nothing better than to have the waste and pork topic quietly go away if/when this passes, to be forgotten and off the voters minds. It has to be kept on people's minds though. With a shitload of pork, they could do a "pork a day" segment for months and months without ever repeating the same one

174 143 I wonder if ACORN will perform the Census like they did voter registration.  Make people up and make them all minorities.

You know it.  There oughta be a law against the President's office secretary, or whatever the heck he is, being able to just take over whatever government function he wants.

(Then again, laws don't matter anymore, so . . .)

175

ND and Arksansas both have Dem senators up for re-election in 2010.  Since both states are getting redder, could they be pursuaded to vote no?

176 Heck, Ginger! We get California!

177 I think it will be Blunt too, but I would like Todd Akin to run.  I don't know that he has the name recognition statewide, but he is a pretty solid conservative.  Carnahan is going to clean up in St. Louis no matter what, but Akin represents the western suburbs so maybe he could keep the margin tighter in the county than others could.   He may not be have the recognition outside the county, but I think his record would translate to votes in the southwest and the most rural areas.  Hope he considers it.  I've heard some rumblings that he is.

178 Anyone get through to ND and Arkansas senate offices?  Gillibrand has already gone to the left.

179 #172,

Not being a legal beagle, I must ask - is that EO even legal?

He has to pay back all the people that got him onto the throne. This reeks of the Spoils system.

181

schizoid, I don't disparage paper gold, own some myself, not enough to make any difference.  I was joking, kind of.

 Uncertainty is a bitch.  The markets hate uncertainty.  I think a lot of what we're seeing in the economy is a response to having a Marxist in the White House.  I don't say he's a Marxist disparagely, it's what he is.  There are enough people that work in some way, shape or form in the markets that realize that, whether they admit it publicly or not.  They don't know how to react, we're in uncharted waters.  So everyone is running for cover.

The gubermint, the Marxist, by trying to react to what might have been a mild recession, which is nothing more than a correction in the markets, is only going to exacerbate the recession.  This may be due to incompetence and/or inexperience. I've worried since last summer that this is an intended manipulation of the markets.  Either way it has created uncertainty that markets abhor.

I listen and hear what these assholes say.  Rahm Emmanual says that a crisis is an opportunity.  An opportunity for what . . . ?

182 Sorry to be dismal and all. If you can figure out a way to package Secession as a Lefty thing and thus break up Leviathan, that might work...

I don't think it's really a matter of what would work, evil midnight bomber (what bombs at midnight).

So much as it is a matter of being inevitable.

You simply can't take things from working people and give them to others, or fritter them away, and not expect some kind of reaction.  In other words, they are stealing all our money to pass out among their friends and we aren't going to see any of it or any benefit from it.

They are jeopardizing our very security doing this, and stealing not only from us, but from our children and grandchildren.

My feeling is that whatever form it takes, there is going to be a gigantic pushback to such blatant thievery, possibly sooner rather than later.  It will just happen inevitably, whether it succeeds in anything or not.

183 the timing of the Census thing and then the latest bill about unions. Funny how its done at a time when people are trying to put out the stimulus fire. Notice how he tries to split and divert attention from one disaster to anothhr, so people won't stay focused long enough on one thing to get it reversed

184 Slightly O/T -- have you noticed in your neighborhoods that no one flies the flag anymore?  I put mine in storage on 4 Nov, unlikely to ever see the light of day again.  But even on my local military installations, through the housing areas, I can't recall seeing it fly anymore. 

So if the productive segment of the society, encapsulated within the flag-waving, 48 percenters who voted against Herr Obama, decides to take the Atlas Shrugged route and withdraws their talent, their commitment, and their capital from the market, how is the nonproductive segment going to function?  Hopefully, enough of us saved up for 7 years of famine...

185 Is it me, or has obama appeared much older these last three weeks? My God, what will he look like in four years?

186 Kristen Gilbrand is one of the biggest donors of Hillary Clinton.  She is a true Clintonite.  Doubtful she will do anything but tow the Clinton line...

188 Messiah will regenerate once His work is done, Ginger.

189 As somebody who has emphasized that they're going to insist "everything is Bush's fault" and that we shouldn't expect a resurgence in 2010, I have to admit this bill has at least offered a few enjoyable bits of Schadenfreude around my office.

From a couple Obama supporters:

"I don't know why I voted for him."

"He's acting like a big government Democrat!"

Oh gee, no shit - what did you expect?  This is what you wanted, enjoy it.

These senators have no idea how dangerous this is.

When the credit market tumbled, Bush, Paulson, & Bernanke had to chose between inflation or a depression; they chose inflation. In turn, Paulson [by act of Congress] lent money to the banks, etc. as a way to stop the hemorraging. In the meantime, Bernanke has to run the money supply through the roof to keep things afloat. If precise measures are taken, the economy will recover; when this occurs, Bernanke's response should be to immediately reel in the money supply. [The opposite of what Volcker did with the stagflation crisis in the '70s.]

Obama understands none of this. If he is not precise in his actions, he will cause not only hyperinflation but a depression as well.  

196

Big Fat Meanie - 184. I've noticed the opposite. I'm in Seattle, just north of downtown. Since the election they have begun to appear in my and nearby neighborhoods. I've been in the Queen Anne neighborhood for four years with very rare sightings before November.

"Bipartisanship" in this day and age usually is when the Repubs and the Dems team up to screw the American public at the same time.

Although the "Bipartisan" stimulus bill really isn't that "bipartisan".  Goes to show that Congressional Dems are very, very good at screwing people over.

210 Sgt Dan, if you're at all serious about running, forget about Alexander.  He just got relected so his seat won't be open until 2014 unless he crokes.  Think about a House seat in 2010.  Wamp isn't going to run again and Marsha Blackburn is thinking about running for governor.  That's two of the nine seats.  I don't know what the others are planning to do, but you also have five dems holding those seats.  Forget Cohen over there in Memphis.  Gordon's been in there so long no one even bothers to run against him.  He's young too, late 50's and they keep gerrymandering his district to keep the expanding suburbs of Nashville who tend to vote repub out of his district.  Just some fuel for your fire.

No, they all think they have all the fucking answers.

As I said during the campaign, it was like an episode of Piper's Pit, just when you think you know the answers, he changes the question.

Good thing he looks good in sunglasses.

Pres. Obama invites Hamas Terrorists to America

"...By executive order, President Barack Obama has ordered the expenditure of $20.3 million in migration assistance to the Palestinian refugees and conflict victims in Gaza.

The "presidential determination" which allows hundreds of thousands of Palestinians with ties to Hamas to resettle in the United States was signed on January 27 and appeared in the Federal Register on February 4.

President Obama's decision, according to the Register, was necessitated by "the urgent refugee and migration needs" of the "victims."

Few on Capitol Hill took note that the order provides a free ticket replete with housing and food allowances to individuals who have displayed their overwhelming support of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the parliamentary election of January 2006. ..."

I agree with Lone Star that Kay Bailey Hutchison has gone McMaverick on Texas, fishing for Democrat support/votes to beat Perry at the coming TX Governor election. What a loon. Evidently, she HAS spent too long in Washington. She speaks Washingtonian, eats Washingtonian, votes Washingtonian, THINKS Washingtonian, all of which is Democrat at the moment. If Sen.

If it takes a permanent campaign to pass legislation, why didn't the Republicans bring back Harold Stassen (other than the fact that he's dead) ?

So much for the brainiest president, the guy who said his best talent was getting people in a room and getting them to talk. Did they run out of suitable rooms in DC ?

And they said there would be an end of waste, fraud and abuse.This attempt for a "stimulus" gives us all three.

my witness, I would even give money to a Democrat (which is an anathema to me) 
to see you gone from the Senate, if you vote for this Stimulus package."

When you call or write, make absolutely certain that you tell your Senators to vote no on CLOTURE. Voting yes on cloture but no on the floor vote is just the same as voting yes.

Here's what I sent to my Senators:

Senator DeMint,

Thank you for your strong stand against the Keynesian stimulus package. I'm sure you already plan on voting no for cloture, but I hope you will do whatever you can to strengthen other Senators in opposition to cloture. The 60 vote requirement is the only real hope we have of stopping this worthless legislation.

Senator Graham,

I understand and appreciate that you have opposed this stimulus package. It's nothing but a dramatic lurch to the Left and will do nothing of any kind to stimulate the private sector.

I just wanted to pass along my support and ask that you vote no on cloture, as well as voting no on the bill should it come to a floor vote. As you know, cloture is only a way of ensuring the bill's passage.

I also urge you to resist any attempts to pass the bill with reduced spending. The very premise of this legislation is anti-American and contrary to the proven principles of a Free Market. Shaving some of the pork won't change that.

242 Feb. 5 (Bloomberg) -- Fannie Mae, the mortgage-finance company under U.S. government control, will loosen rules for homeowners seeking to lower their loan payments by refinancing. Fannie Mae will drop some credit-score requirements, reduce income-documentation standards and waive the need for appraisals in some cases, according to a notice yesterday to lenders posted on the Washington-based company’s Web site. The changes apply to loans that the company owns or guarantees.

Exactly how did we get to needing a "stimulus" ??

243 How about the Democrats?  Does Happy Harry have them all by the gonads?  Feinstein is running in two years - she has to pay off her husband with pork but has to also win as senatory or Governator, assuming Californina is still alive and kicking in 2010.

The way the deficit expanded from 15 billion to 40 billion in weeks was astonishing.  I bet if you did accrual accounting in Cal  the deficitit would be more like 200-300 Billion.

245 Mixed in with the righteous rage over the ongoing betrayal of the country by Hussein Pasha and his minions; there was mention of flags; as in whether to fly them, and whether or not they should be inverted. Allow me to quote what I said at Misha's place on the day Hussein Pasha perjured himself with the Oath:
-----------------------------
A slightly different take, if I may. At my house, the US colors have until today flown every day since the moment that I saw the airliners hit on 9/11. When I moved to my current house, I installed a real flagstaff instead of the jury-rigged one I had at the old place. It has 3 sets of shackles on the halyard. I flew US colors over the First Navy Jack [the naval version of the rattlesnake flag that was the first set of US colors flown by the Continental Navy], over the colors of one of our allies in the war; primarily either the UK, our Aussie brothers, or Israel.

From today, I fly only the First Navy Jack, which the Secretary of the Navy ordered flown on all Navy vessels until the war is won. While I am sure that Hussein Pasha thinks he is done with the war, most assuredly the war is not done with us. The US colors have been safely stored. I am somewhat of a historian. I know that there are times when countries are under the occupation of hostile and foreign forces. We are in that place now. Just as patriots in such cases hide their national colors until they can fly freely again in peace or in war, I will await the day when we have a legitimate president and a government loyal to the Constitution again.

When I was an active Peace Officer, I was required by law to render aid in any emergency, even when off duty. It was my luck, good or bad, to find myself as first responder fairly frequently, when off duty. Since I retired, I am under no such compulsion. If I should find myself as a first responder again, and there is any indication that the victims are supporters of the Usurper, they can pray to him for help. They are not my countrymen.

The H4 replica watches took replica watches Harrison a massive 13 years to replica watches construct-but this was only the end of a lifetime's work. His genius was clear from the very beginning. Unfortunately many astronomers such as Nevil Maskelyne were convinced that a mechanical solution replica watches would not work and that only astronomy could solve the replica watches longitude problem. The fact that Harrison was from a working class family and had little replica watches formal education probably didn't help his prospects.Solving the longitude problem through horology meant designing a timepiece that could work accurately at sea. When you watch consider the rolling waves, changes in replica watches temperature and generally adverse replica watches conditions the dificulty of this task becomes apparent.The H1 was completed in 1735 and proved replica successful at sea. However the Board of Longitude demanded a full a transatlantic wholesale watch voyage. They gave Harrison a grant of 500 pounds with which he began work on the H2 watches.

284 Certainly watches are Replica Watches used to help people record rolex Watches time, but rolex watches nowadays its functions have enlarged. Replica watches are now tag heuer Watches not only objects that tag heuer watches can tell you what time it is, they are also a status symbol. You should not feel strange when you find someone wearing a watch on his wrist, but use the cell phone to tell time. In that situation, the watch is just showing its luxurious function cartier watches. It is normal and cartier watches perhaps also happens to you. .If asked that among the watches of various brands, which one can suit your taste? There is no doubt that most people will choose Rolex. Whichever social class you are in, it is naturally Rolex was known breitling Watches and cherished breitling watches for a long time. However, the elements do not usually enter the market alone, always come with the price tag up to the hand. For this reason, many people, especially men, their dreams of luxury Rolex watches are buried in omega Watches his heart omega watches. What should I do? Rolex watches are simply stunning worn by the rich and famous, right? No, this world is not the world's richest men, is the world of each. All are equal before the search of luxury and be men's watches respected.

285 Factors Replica Watches About The Rolex replica watches Oyster The Oyster is so closely get in touch with Rolex, and it is inevitably that some people think these are the only Replica watches Rolex manufacture. Others suppose that there is a single Oyster watch. But as a matter of fact, the name Oyster does not actually meant for a rolex Watches particular watch you can buy rolex watches or even to a series but to a type of case that available in some of the Rolex ranges. History The Oyster case was first released in 1926. The objective was to protect the workings of the watch from dust and moisture. Early watches were far from waterproof. The Oyster tag heuer Watchescase was an tag heuer watches innovative design to eliminate these problems. It had a new double locking crown that screwed into place. It has been compared to the hatch on a submarine. Like a submarine, the Oyster case was waterproof. In 1927 Mercedes Gleitze swam the English breitling Watches Channel breitling watches . Before she set off she was presented with a Rolex Oyster. When she arrived, the watch was still working perfectly. The resulting publicity gave the new case a massive boost. Why is it called Oyster? Legend has it that Hans cartier Watches Wilsdorf cartier watches, who invented the Oyster, chose the name because the new case reminded him of the difficulty he had experienced prising open oysters at dinner. Since then the Oyster has further, particularly advanced. Many Oyster watches today are omega Watches perpetual-self-winding, in other omega watches words, it does not require to expose the mechanism to the outside world in order to wind it. The Osyter Perpetual is one of the toughest, most durable, most reliable watches (under truly adverse conditions). It is probably the best mechanical watch money can buy.
