Number 8

Dug it, but who cares?

Oh yeah, Number 8 on the list of weaknesses is "Easily Distracted".

When all is done and said, it doesn't matter whether Mike Gravel was/is the real deal or not, because on a really--really--really---really--good--day 5% of you would know if you were being completely bent over, fooled, -- did I mention up the a**? --- manipulated --- or not (yeah, like you're not. You're so vain.) . And I don't give a rat's ass if you are democrat, republican, green, or -- those of you over 40, do you remember saying or hearing, "I don't care if you're black, white, green, yellow or purple!!". Just wondering. ... I don't care at all. So far the results provide the pudding, and you know where the proof is. Dumb extra spaces for emphasis . . . . yes, em . ph . as . is . ass. Yeah? Kiss this, you moron! And snap the f**k out of it.

The American populace has been reduced to cyborg status.
We are the fodder, bring us the cannon. E-I-E-I-O....

----- The following and the previous is unpaid, and oh, who the --- crap -- is there a word I can put here that can express my frustration significantly and yet not get me censored at the least and arrested at the worst??? Who the Tinky gives a Winky whether our children, our nieces and nephews, great nieces, et --holy crap do you have not a clue? It is us. We shape the future. We can make it harder and we can make it easier. So far we have opted for, "No one in the entire Universe is important than me." Good luck keeping that one going for any length of time. In case you are wonderring everyone else is way more important than you are.

Here is the math: If we rank every single person on the planet on a scale of dumb to dumber, you are somewhere on the scale. If your dumbness, let us say, is worth 50 out of 100 points on that scale and the median is 50 points. That then makes 3 billion people are dumber than you, and 3 billion are smarter than you. Or thereabouts. Whoopie. Again, so what does that mean to me? ---- I cannot believe how incredibly stupid you people are.

Repeat after me: If I am worth 50 out of a possble hundred points on a 0 to 100 point scale and I am at the median, there are 3 billion people on Earth that are less incredibly stupid and 3 billion people who are more incredibly stupid.

This is really not much consolation to me. But let's swim farther into the American political sewer.

There has been much crap kicked around about who can win, and I really don't care who can win. I care who carries my ideals. Those ideals are based on the vision put forth by people who knew more about real sacrifice than Bill O'Reilly imagines when he... Sorry... got sidetracked. George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Mark Twain.... For crap sakes, what freaking country were you raised in? Did you grow up without a library? Like, Oh-My-God!!! This begins to explain a trend. Ohhhh----- Swoon!!! I'm in on a trend. Yeah, it's ungodly stoopid, but, IT'S A TREND!!!!!!

I said it before, and I continue to stand beside my statement: "If you want someone who can win, suck it down, and you know what they mean.... and vote Republican." If you would rather cast your vote for your ideals, vote for someone who expresses ideas and ideals in sync with your own. If you happen to be an unhinged moronic savant who thinks Jesus comes in your jammies every night, you might be an advisor to a sitting President. Not really the first lady, more like the first laddie. On the other hand, she's probably not getting much either. C'mon, he's over 40. 'Fess up. Oh, really, oh my god you must be some kind of ---- HEY!!!! NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR SEX LIFE!!!!

WE ARE IN BIGGER TROUBLE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did I mention the math? 50 is the median and judging by the story it is the mode. -- The mode is the average. 6 billion people answered a test, the total score was 300 billion. Like duh, I am actually making this up, but the math works so far. Shock! Awe! Borrowing of Money!

On I wander, pretending to care if you manage to float molten something on that "Chick topic", did I say "Chick?" I meant Uber-Joseph-Campbell-itious Gaia-Earth-Mother-Drives-a-Truck-er Godot-Est. But remember, even if they are rounding us up and killing us: "We were the really smart ones, so all it took to get us to kill everyone else was advance copies of popular video games.

 

Have I mentioned, "Yee!' and "Haw!"???????????? Please, someone grow a brain.

Our government is not of, by, and for, it's the people, the people, the people.
---- Probably Lincoln, can't confirm. Makes sense anyway, doesn't it?
---- If not, (and yes, you are mostly retarded from the response called, "Duh")
---- what should the rest of us do with you. Because it makes little sense to let
---- you roam free. If your argument is that we need more lawyers, politicians
---- therapists and/or philosophers, I can only answer, "Prove it, dumb ass."

You only have one life and it sounds like you're missing yours badly.

Really. Do it for yourself.

Times have changed. We are going to empower the American people. Let’s work together. I am tough. I’m not afraid. None of this politics as usual. Mike Gravel

Dear Mr. Gravel

Bill Maher is anti-religious and we all know it and its OK for him, its a free country.

 If you have time to watch/listen to yourself, of all the guests on the show when Bill makes his anti-Catholic jokes you overwelmingly laugh the loudest and clearest.

I was really shocked at your behaviour as a Political candidate who might want to appeal to the masses.

RE: Real Time

I had a Catholic up bringing from fifties onwards. The way I see them today make them a very laughable lot. They were twisted by their own acceptance of unrealistic beliefs and full of guilt about anything to do with sex. Some of them were actually cruel.
If you were in a similar environment to mine growing up, you might wish you could have a good laugh and then move on. I have cousins who are still stuck with very primitive ideas
(in the worst sense possible).
I am thankful to be able to have a good laugh them and not get in to a needless anger.
That is because, I know for sure that all this Catholicism has nothing to do with Jesus' teachings. Forget ALL these canned religions and Organizations and look Inwards.
Gravel is not running to win the Presidency by any deceitful ways. Mike would want to be seen as himself, regardless of mass appeal or not. His, is a campaign of a Leader.
Go Gravel !!!


Well Put!!

I worked with a doctor once that said Jesus preached of LOVE, not the speration of people. The church organizations have cause this speration amoung people who believe in the same god. I like the fact that Gravel is a Unitarian and speaks of LOVE, I am sure we all have heard the saying treat others as you would like to be treated. I think people should apply this more often and not judge others based on their religious faiths or lack there of.

Enjoyed your appearance

I am even more encouraged to vote for you after your appearance on Bill Maher, I think you did a great job on the panel.  For someone that has been out of politics for a while you still know exactly what is going on.  I agree with you 100% on Iraq, we could leave and have a good outcome.. But the childish behaviour that Bush shows, we can't talk to bad people (according to Bush).  The best days ahead would be Mike Gravel as president

Great Appearance Mike

I hate to pull out the Republican playbook from the 2000 election, but I have to say that you looked so comfortable, informed, and honest on Realtime, that Hillary and Obama would have looked like robots next to you! They'd have to have their handlers off-camera telling them their opinions!

I wrote Bill Maher to let him know how much I enjoyed that show, and that I'd like to see you on again.

BTW, I do tend to agree with Maher that only so much can be explained by incompetence. I think the current power structure has a vested interest in staying in Iraq's oil fields as long as possible. There is a lot of money hidden in that fog of war...

 

Pure bliss

Watching you laugh ... really laugh, was the highlight of the show for me. You have a sense of humor and I would like to see that in the President. I'm a bit disappointed that no one seems to be defending the younger demographic. They're just as much wanting a change - why would they want to continue living what they've seen their parents dread?

Maher Show

Your comment is right on and thanks for finding and posting this. I followed through and ask Bill to include Senator Gravel on regularly as he does Huckabee. Personally, I think if Bill Maher would really get to know Mike and what he is trying to do he would find as I have that he is the only real 'Non-Politics As Usual" candidate and that he really represents the only possible "Real" change in this broken representative system.

Everyone, tell Bill to have Mike on regularly.

Great Job!!!

I thought you did a great job on the show =) I am going to write to Bill Maher and thank him for having you on the show. I hope everyone else will do the same and ask Bill if he would please have Gravel come on the show again =)

Bill Maher

Great to see Mike on the Bill  Maher show.. I tell people about Mike Gravel all the time. He is an Inspiration.... Hope and wish more and more people will see him. He raises the playing field to such a higher level!!!

People tell me all the time he doesn't have a chance and I say  "One Match Can Bring A Lot of Light into Darkness".. People are starving for the TRUTH... It is Most Important that the American people realize they are  not going to get it  from simply watching regular network television. Americans desperately  need to know of the incredible out of hand debt we have and Lack of Government Care in regards to  the education of  our young. It is as though we have gone into a dark age.

Keep it coming MIKE !!!!
