Yet Another Defeat ...

... for the NeoConmunists™ and Israel-First-At-Any-Cost crowd:

"Chuck Hagel’s bid to win confirmation as the next defense secretary cleared a major hurdle Tuesday by beating back a Republican effort to block his nomination almost two weeks after GOP senators launched a filibuster.

Following a 71 to 27 vote, the former Republican senator is now poised for a final confirmation vote later Tuesday or early Wednesday over Republican objections to his views on Middle East security."
Senate clears path for final Hagel vote

And if the "sequester" has got ya worried, just wait until you get a load of the Hagel "Chop Shop" ... when it premiers over at the 5 Sided Wind Box ...

Let the whining and gnashing of teeth commence ...

Must be annoying when nobody takes the bait and you have to reply to your own post. Maybe that bait will be better.

Nah ... you got it wrong as usual ... I didn't reply to my own post ... since I had additional relevant info (as well as opportunity for Schadenfreude) I replied to the thread ... not the post ...

But hey - I know you're a "big picture" kinda guy ... and so have trouble with the actual details ... like discrete facts ...

Lack of reply to my posts just makes my life easier - since I am relieved of the responsibility of responding ...

Sorry to spoil your non-responsibility, but nothing says "It's midnight!" better than a fried bologna sammich...

Altho I prefer mine with fried egg and cheese, potato chips just came across as a "hell yeah!" of an idea to me.

Interesting ... I've got the eggs and cheese and potato chips - wonder if these will work:

... but alas, no bologna ... however ... the Walmart, whose lot I'm parked in, is open ... :rolleyes:

Hmmm ... I wonder: will microwaving the bologna work ?

It sure will. But I learned a trick from an old timer... a piece of foil on a hot engine or exhaust makes for an excellent frying pan/toaster.

Those chips look good!

Tinfoil on the turbo ... ;)

They are absolutely ... the bomb ...

East coast thing - they're out of PA IIRC ... Hanover maybe ...

I always try to stock up whenever I'm over that way ... but you could probably "roll your own" with some Lay's and a can of Old Bay seasoning ...

We use to take C-Rats and stick em by the exhaust of our tank for a really tasty meal :p.

I don't know where I got it from but I've been sticking potato chips on bologna sandwiches since grade school.

Anybody remember getting cigarettes with your c's?

They've got another defeat coming in the next presidential election. Part of the electorate wants the gravy train to continue & won't back any party that threatens to even slow it down a tiny bit, or even slow down the rate at which it's scheduled to speed up; part of the electorate demand they return to their roots of fiscal responsibility (to which they've only adhered in principle, not practice) and won't vote for any party that won't; and another part of the electorate figured out that they're no better than the Demon-crats when it comes to running an honest election and says "SCREW 'EM!"

The Republican Party is pretty much finished, barring a major misstep by the Demon-crats.

Used to do that in HS. Also got the lunch ladies to put chili on my hamburgers. Everyone was like "Ewww!", and then it became a fad a couple of years later.

Don't think I ever saw Turtle snicker. What earns a snicker over a snort ?
Well, RLENT doesn't put himself in a position where you can laugh at him (well, with him, cause he's got an awesome sense of humor) very often, so when he gets pwned by Leo, it's worth a little snicker. It's actually really only worth more of a tee-hee-hee but I don't want to be perceived as being a little too :censoredsign:gotry-esque.

Yeah, but those people are idiots who laugh at anything they can't understand.
