More a note than the hammering he deserves. After all, someone who tries to paint themselves as the light and life of childen in need and then goes on to attack alleged political opponents and their families, incuding the children, in the most personal of ways, is someone not to be trusted, let alone believed. But there is this special twist.
One might think a compassionate adult who has experienced divorce would not clap hands in delight over that experience for others, that, assuming the divorce rumor he spread about the Palin's was actually true.
Yet, not only has Griffin experienced divorce, he went through it twice. Once with Susan in 1990 and again with Deann in 2005. Just enter Jesse R Griffin, this is no big secret, not even the custody and support hearings.
Maybe it isn't really about politics with Griffin, maybe it's more wishful thinking and a misery loves company sort of thing. Based on my impressions, that would fit the personality I've observed? Just ... asking ... questions, as Jesse likes to say.


I haven't closely followed this story however yesterday I did notice at the grocery store check-out stand a 'Palin divorce' story on the cover of a glossy gossip magazine.
I looked at it and thought: what a testimony to the high-brow fine art of American pop culture, what richness in the experience.
To imagine it all began with a perverted Perez Hilton look-like sharing his astral brilliance in the form of masturbated fabrications

Jesse R. Griffin has failed to satisfy two women to the point they seek legal action? How...sad.

"masturbated fabrications"
"failed to satisfy two women"
Nice.

Feeling some deja vu, Mike?

Well...
I do feel like I have previously received inane and witless retorts from someone named Hyman...

My posts have that in them, but only when I have quoted you.

You just can't resist helping me make my points.
Thank you.

Yeah, sure. Keep acting like you "win" these arguments, and you're "above" the the pesky little details of the debate.
We aren't buying what you're shoveling, Mike0sense.

Hyman, I know you aren't buying it....or anything.
I know your mind is made up and that you have it all figured out.
I do not at all question that you are certain about what you know and that there's nothing anyone can do, any information or facts that can be offered, that will lead to you changing your opinions.
Really.
No need to worry.

LOL. Poor Mike0sense, projecting again. You just love those straw-men, don't ya? You must be crying a river into your tofu every time I take a flamethrower to your straw-man lies.
Don't fret over any "worrying" on my part. You're the one clinging to discredited theories and debunked "facts", not me. But I will humor your little tantrum, just like I humor the "special" grocery-baggers at the store who offer me unsolicited advice.
As you might have guessed, I do not want the 0bamateur to succeed in his attempt to impose government oversight on my healthcare. I don't want him to succeed in forcing unfunded healthcare mandates on employers. And I don't want to be forced into welfare healthcare if I switch jobs (and "lose" my right to a grandfathered insurance plan). You clearly are offended that I believe that I can do a better job making decisions about my healthcare than some DMV-style bureaucrat. But you are a liberal, and I am not surprised that you have tried to demonize anyone who doesn't hold the same beliefs that you hold.
But, unlike you, I am basing my decision on 0bamaCare on the actual statements made 0bama & his employees/allies, and the actual text of the bill. 0bama stated for the record that he wants to implement a single-payer system:
"Obama spoke to the Illinois AFL-CIO saying: “I happen to be a proponent of a single payer universal health care program. …. A single payer health care plan, a universal health care plan. And that’s what I’d like to see. But as all of you know, we may not get there immediately. Because first we have to take back the White House, we have to take back the Senate, and we have to take back the House.”"
and
"Obama told the Service Employees International Union: “[A]s I indicated before, my commitment is to make sure that we’ve got universal health care for all Americans by the end of my first term as president. …I don’t think we’re going to be able to eliminate employer coverage immediately. There’s going to be potentially some transition process.”"
Furthermore, the bill he wants to sign clearly and plainly states that he will take away my choice of health insurance if I switch jobs:
"At Section 102(A) “Limitation on New Enrollment”, it prohibits any health insurer, other than the “public option” insurer, from adding any new people after the bill’s effective date."
To top it off, 0bama lies about his own statements to try and convince people to enact his scam:
"But then President Obama appeared to deny those prior statements at a “health care town hall” on August 11, 2009, when he claimed: “I have not said that I was a single-payer supporter, because, frankly, we historically have had a employer-based system in this country, with private insurers, and for us to transition to a system like that, I believe would be too disruptive. …So, I’m not promoting a single-payer plan.”"
Maybe you are dumb enough to believe 0bama's lies. Maybe you believe that the actual words of the bill really mean something other than what they state in plain English. Maybe you are fully aware of 0bama's plans and support them, which is why you are lying. I can't say for certain what your motivation is for peddling false information.
But that is exactly what you are doing. Lying, by omission or commission, is still lying.
