Re: Puterbac News Network and Political Discussion Thread
I liked GWTW okay. It is a major part of Americana and all. Yes, it was basically a soap opera.
I think the book was better. It didn't rise to the level of genius of The Sound and the Fury, but it was still a good read.

Bush drove the Titanic into the iceberg. Obama kept backing up and ramming the iceberg again, over and over.

In a brazen attempt to knock Lois Lerner's personal computer off the Fox news ticker, U.S. Special Forces captured some dude who may or may not have been in or near the Middle East the night our consulate in Benghazi was attacked

Rice was simply performing what's known in liberal circles as resume enhancement.

Someone dig Faulkner up to write a 1200-word sentence by an unknown narrator to fill me in on what video they are discussing.

Point well made, rat, but it's also true that oprama has fallen short trying to unfuck what 8 woebegone years of dubya has wrought.Jungle Rat wrote:In the end Bush still sucked. Spin however you want.
In order to get us back to the Clinton-era prosperity we once enjoyed, the obvious course is obvious. Hopefully the PAH won't keep us in suspense too much longer.

Keep trying, AA. With sufficient mental effort on your part, you'll figure out both the video and Faulkner.AlabamAlum wrote:Someone dig Faulkner up to write a 1200-word sentence by an unknown narrator to fill me in on what video they are discussing.
