Blaming his wife? You stay classy, Ted.

That's the most stupid thing I've ever heard Ted say, and that's saying a lot.

xenophon10k: Blaming his wife? You stay classy, Ted.

I've seen that before in BC politics.

"Let's put this expensive gift in my wife's name and nobody will know about it".

Yeah. The extra story that appeared on your house and the Rolls Royce in the driveway are not at all suspicious to the constituents. Not a real winner of a plan.

Shouldn't that be "wife-like coreruption"?

This thread will go from awesome to epic the second a certain person steps in here. Though I doubt they have the balls to do so.

Wow, of all the fark-memes that have arrived over the years from someone's epic failure, this wife-like typing detected, marine "core" one is my favorite.

Not to toot my own horn here, but I think I get to take a certain amount of credit for the "core" meme, seeing as how I was the first to out him as a liar in that famous "Marine Core soldier" thread. Well, him or his wife, as the case may be.

I love this thread.

My absolute favorite part of that thread was the way he tried to play it off as some sort of a joke you were too dense to understand.

 
Pocket Ninja [TotalFark] 2008-09-26 05:17:39 PM  
Oh, and then you had the sweaty guy nobody had ever heard of before, and never heard of since, logging in to give support. Though he wasn't an alt or anything.

Ah, good times.

lied on Senate forms about more than $250,000 in home renovations and gifts from a wealthy oil contractor and close friend, Bill Allen, who expected political favors in return.

"You cannot report what you don't know," Sullivan said. "You can't fill out a form and say what's been kept from you by the deviousness of someone like Bill Allen."


Oof. I guess everyone is buddy/buddy until federal prosecutors get involved.

John McCain can empathize. He knows what coonts Wives can be.

It's scientifically valid!

I'm jealous.

I say stupid shiat all the time and there are never any greenlights calling me out on my idiocy in clear violation of the fark posting guidelines.

Actually, I saw him one other time since that thread (I noticed because I had Farkyed him in that thread, and I'm sure you can guess what I Farkyed him as), fulfilling essentially the same role as he did in that thread.

What next? They gonna indict the dog?

 
pup.socket 2008-09-26 06:45:32 PM  
so, is it a standard excuse that comes with a certain set of mind, or is it just a coincidence?

I had a Marine Core greenlight once and the mods changed it to Corp because they thought that it was an accident.

/The win is strong with this one subby

I love the Marine Core!

A strong headline that is full of win.

Much like Obama's chances of win become greater when every paper in the country and every cable news site says:

TED STEVENS CONVICTED ON SEVEN CORRUPTION COUNTS

sadly the GOPer bump is not as big should Stevens be acquitted.

 
bartink 2008-09-26 07:17:44 PM  
Awesome. I wonder if the mods know what they just approved.

 
Cyberluddite [TotalFark] 2008-09-26 07:19:24 PM  
bartink: Awesome. I wonder if the mods know what they just approved.

The admins (mods don't greenlight, admins do) read Fark too, you know. I'm sure whoever greenlighted this knew.

 
Slam Bradley 2008-09-26 07:57:29 PM  
And yet Ted Stevens is still only trailing by less than 5% (on 538.com) at this point...yay Alaska!
