There is a fundraising dinner (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070925/ap_on_el_pr/giuliani_house_party_1) for Ghouliani called "9/11 for Giuliani" where they are charging people $9.11 a plate.

Is he exploiting 9/11 too much?

.

No worse that Hillary exploiting being Bill's husband. :D

Do you seriously think that is the same as exploiting a tragedy that killed thousands of Americans?

Bill was a tragedy that killed thousands of Americans...even excluding the ones murdered in Waco.

Giuliani exploiting 9/11, Hillery, Obama, et al, exploiting Iraq, and our casualties. What's the difference? Thats normal behavior for politicians, all of them.

LOL, when I read this story in the paper this morning, I just KNEW Dharma would exploit it.

Good to see he didn't let me down.

;)

The difference is that Hillary and Obama are not hosting themed fund raisers to exploit tragedies.

Yeah, yeah, they're such innocent little darlings, butter won't melt in their mouth's.

Tell me.
Does he pay you $9:11,for eating with him.

Yeah, yeah, they're such innocent little darlings, butter won't melt in their mouth's.
I think the proper expression is "sugar won't melt in their mouth's". Like they're soooo sweet, it couldn't happen. I've never heard the word "butter" used in that context before. I could be wrong, though.

Oh, and I agree with you. :)

Tell me.

He's a Republican, not a Democrat. You pay him.

Hmm,I think he would be good on a nite I was having difficulty sleeping,he was in London last week,doing the rounds,NOT Presidential material.

I don't know the origins, but my mother used sugar when referring to "sweet", and butter in referring to "innocence".

.It's tacky as hell.

He should get his money the Clinton way...

http://www.boston.com/news/nation/articles/2007/09/26/hsu_raised_big_money_for_clinton_supporters/

Last weekend on Meet the Press, Alan Greenspan said the same thing I have been saying for years,
"Clinton was the best Republican President in decades."

And believe it or not, I don't find myself disagreeing with that assessment (at least, not on the surface, I don't). Fiscally he was pretty conservative - I'll give him that.

Is he exploiting 9/11 too much?
Tacky as hell.

You want to talk about tacky? Anyone remember the Wellstone memorial?

It is complete and total bullshit. I am appauled... why the hell would he do something this fucking retarded. If it is him VS hillary november 09 i am going to write in Dharma for president....

You want to talk about tacky? Anyone remember the Wellstone memorial?I know very little (What I just know looked up!) about it. What do you mean, here?

If you ever read a Tom Clancy book, you'll see that expression pop up like zits on a high school freshman. Guy's half decent at doing his research, but he can't write for shit.

I know very little (What I just know looked up!) about it. What do you mean, here?

well, there was a senator named Paul Wellstone who died in an accident and at his memorial servie all the ususal left wing suspects got up there and started rallying against Bush and it turned into a yelling and screaming political rally, when it was supposed to be the poor guys memorial service. That incident could possibly be the reason the dems lost the mid terms during the first Bush term.

Personally, I think he's in danger of exploiting the memory of the victims,this may very well come back to haunt him.

if you'll read the story closely (which Dharma didn't bother to) you'll notice that it wasn't his idea. a few younger supporters came up with the idea for a theme for a nationwide fundraising night.

COme on.,.. you mean to tell me,some jr interms came up with this idea and he didnt know about it persoanlly untill walking up to the podium?

I dont think that will matter,he didnt come out and say NO,thats in bad taste,so it will be remembered as his.

I would nearly go as far as to say,this could finish him,as a front runner.American public are very sensitive to this subject,as you all know.

COme on.,.. you mean to tell me,some jr interms came up with this idea and he didnt know about it persoanlly untill walking up to the podium?
please RTA...you can't get dinner at Applebee's for $9.11, you think Rudy's gonna show up for that? $911 maybe, but not $9.11-it wouldn't cover security.

I think its the '911' bit,not the value of the sum.

I think this is pretty tacky. I can't pin down anything concrete about Giuliani that I don't like, but I definitely think he's a little slimy. Maybe not quite presidential material. Don't ask me to explain. :p

And believe it or not, I don't find myself disagreeing with that assessment (at least, not on the surface, I don't). Fiscally he was pretty conservative - I'll give him that.
Well, I don't know a lot about Clinton's politics, considering that I was 10 when he left office. However, the more I learn about him the more I think I would like him. My own political opinions are constantly changing at this point, but I think a pattern is emerging in which I lean left on social issues and right on economic issues. And I do mean "LEAN", because I tend to take a pretty moderate stance on most issues.

if you'll read the story closely (which Dharma didn't bother to) you'll notice that it wasn't his idea. a few younger supporters came up with the idea for a theme for a nationwide fundraising night.ROFL!

Just like the White House had nothing to do with "Mission Accomplished".

my condolences to your asshole.

LOL.

The last 7 posts are priceless.

Whenever a scummy Republican is being exposed for some bit of criminality or hypocrisy or questionable activity, you can always look for the good little RightWing cheerleaders to make every effort to ignore/change the subject/obfuscate the issue.

It speaks volumes.

At least none of those idiots was running for the job of Leader-of-the-Free-World. This thing makes me wonder at Rudy's sanity. Damn, it's just stupid-dumb!

I like Red Robin... They have a great burger with guacamole on it. I had some good pasta there once too, when I wasn't in a burger type of mood...

Do you eat them so much you have the price memorized or something?
sales tax isn't that hard.:rolleyes:

sales tax isn't that hard.

No it really isn't, which is why I didn't think it was necessary to mention.
But then again I suppose you have to get your "victories" where you can don't you?

Congratulations on figuring out how to calculate sales tax Mikey!

If he could calculate the sales tax for every state then i would be impressed

yeah, I agree. that would show some real effort on his part.

Did they have a Twin Towers cake too? This is friggin pathetic.

Oh, and I agree with you. :)

The proper expression is actually, "Butter wouldn't melt in his mouth. The phrase can be traced back to the fifteen hundreds and was used by Charles Dickens.

It refers to someone with a demeanor so cool that even butter wouldn't melt if placed in his mouth.

I don't belive it was Dharma who began to talk about Applebees and Ruby Tuesday and other such drivel.

I was talking about those who originally highjacked the thread (beginning with you) and instigated an assinine and meaningless (to the topic at hand) discussion of restaurants and food.

I realize that all threads drift, but this seemd to me to be a purposeful distraction from and obfuscation of the topic of Giuliani and his $9.11 dinner.

No, not at all.

well smart ass as in my FIRST post on here.... i am totally against it,find it very tasteless and if i was ever going to vote for him i would have to seriously take inventory on him all over again.... so please how tell me how am i a "good little RightWing cheerleaders to make every effort to ignore/change the subject/obfuscate the issue"..... Make your point of back the fuck up puppet.

Red Robin is an imperialist ploy to make us all fat and lazy so we wont see that we kill brown skins for oil

I realize that all threads drift, but this seemd to me to be a purposeful distraction from and obfuscation of the topic of Giuliani and his $9.11 dinner.Oh, no! Not another plot by the Right to distract all the powerful (yet inanely stupid, fat and burger-lazy) members of AllForums.net away from the perils of a secret CosaNova candidate like Rudy "I-was-there-through-it-all" Giuliani! Damn, played again!

Yeah, it was planned. :rolleyes:

If you look REAL closely, you'll find that tactic spelled out in the PNAC documents.

We use that expression over here,you Chicago guys,know nothing.

Well, yeah - the expression originated in your neck of the woods (or so I'm told). Oh, and we know how to cook, which is more than I can say for you Irish boys. (Insert fat joke here).

We know how to eat.

Considering what you DO eat, color me surprised. :D

Ah the humble potato haha

Yeah - I suppose the Scots are the real sick ones in your neck of the woods, what, with their coveted haggis and whatnot. There's simply NO excuse for that shit, period. Oh, and don't even get me started on blood sausage and spotted dick (whatever the fuck that shit is). It's probably an English delicacy of some sort.

Haggis,full of all sorts of crap,stuffed into a goats stomach lining.Scotland.
Blood Sausage,Ive seen it in butcher shops but,no thanks.
Spotted Dick and Toad n the Hole.England.

Champ is nice here tho.

What's in "champ"?

What's in "champ"?
Scallions boiled in milk,then mix the scallions in with mashed potato add a little of the boiled milk.Its not culinary science,but tastes good.
Which is what food is all about.

You see, that's my problem with most of the food in the UK; it's so goddamned bland. You were talking about mashed potatoes. With chives and butter. Hey, now don't get me wrong - I like mashed potatoes and all, but if that hit the pinnacle of my dietary "wow" factor, then I'd swallow a bullet.

You guys could learn something from the French. (Well, that's about the only thing you need to learn from those assbags seeing as to how they're a bunch of pussies, but hey - at least they're good for food tips).

how about a faggot? isnt that like beef intestines on bread?

I always thought it was John Edwards.

I thought faggot meant something else in US,ah well.

It does, but I was curious about the meaning over there. I saw it on a cooking show one time, caugh the tail end of it.

I am still waiting for you to show me how i was a "good little RightWing cheerleaders to make every effort to ignore/change the subject/obfuscate the issue" Especially when i was for this incident anti rightwing.

Basically you have nothing... so look at the top of the screen for new posts and try to fuck with someone else... there are alot of threadss out there for you to spout your pessimism,and if I am lucky i will run into you on there. Hopefully you will have something a little better next time around.

Hmm,never heard of faggot before.Sounds Scottish.

Joes crab shack has a great one... I bet no one here that goes to joes ever tried it.. it is the most under rated under exposed thing they have!!!

When I go to Joe's Crab Shack I order the crab leg special, Blue Claw, King Crab and Snow Crab legs boiled in Old Bay. That and corn on the cob and cole slaw and I am in seafood heaven.

I LOVED the food in Ireland. I like bland food though. Sensitive taste buds and all. The bacon in Ireland was absolutely to die for... In this country, you get a BLT and the lettuce and tomato are the whole show, maybe a tiny bit of bacon every other bite. And the tea was amazing. I had to buy some in the airport to bring back with me. Even better than English breakfast tea, which you can get here and which I like a lot. Basically everything I ate there was good, especially the meats.

So what? I don't think that was LF's intention. Everyone in this thread agrees that Giuliani's use of 9/11 for his own purposes continues to be tacky. Since there was no argument about it at all, we decided to talk about something else.

Ok.

Maybe you're right.

It just seemed to me, in all seriousness, to be a deliberate **let's fill the topic with meaningless drivel so that people will stop paying any attention to it** ploy.

If it was not intentional, my apologies.

Tacky or not, at this point in time I plan on voting for Rudy.

Now getting back to the really important topic.

I love eating the typical foods of wherever I am. When in the Caribbean I eat stuff like fried flying fish for breakfast along with fruit, curried goat for lunch and Jerked Chicken for dinner.

In Australia I ate Emu and meat pies, Vegamite and beans of toast.

I am looking forward to having a Full English Breakfast, bacon, sausage, eggs, toast, beans and mushrooms. I happen to love Bangers and Mash, Shepherds Pie, Cottage Pie and Toad In The Hole. I am looking forward to trying Yorkshire Pudding and Bubble and Squeak.

I already know German, Austrian, Swiss and Italian food but Belgian and Dutch food should be interesting.

When I go to Joe's Crab Shack I order the crab leg special, Blue Claw, King Crab and Snow Crab legs boiled in Old Bay. That and corn on the cob and cole slaw and I am in seafood heaven.

old bay? i never tried that. I will next time.... i usually get the BBQ style. though it doesnt taste anything like BBQ.. more like a hickory rub seasoning.

Seeing food is the hot topic at present,check this out.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/7016289.stm

I'll have one of those for everyone at the table please.

What is typical Irish food, Paul? About the only typically Irish meal I am familiar with is corned beef and cabbage with boiled potatoes. I figure you probably eat a lot of lamb.
