Jim Bunning, on how he keeps up with World Events...
Edited on Mon Mar-01-10 10:28 PM by James48
Jim Bunning, (R-KY), back in 2004, during his Senate race, on where he gets his information:

"Let me explain something: I don't watch the national news,
and I don't read the paper.
I haven't done that for the last six weeks.
I watch Fox News to get my information," he said.

6. You're probably right but it would a lot more fun if it was recent...
Then again, he is providing new material lately.

5. Now don't sugar-coat it for us, alfredo. We're tough. We can take how
you really feel about Kentucky's junior Senator.

7. It's been all over the news. The ABC footage is getting some play.
He liked throwing his fast ball at a batter's head. He didn't give a fuck if he injured or killed someone.

9. Indeed -- he was a fierce ol' dragon in those younger days
on the Phillies' mound of a given Sunday afternoon.

But what bad form for him to go out like this.

15. I like that kind of thinking.
In fact, I bet most of us would be willing to drop everything and drive ol' Jim to the bus station.

17. Kentucky is a fierce contender in the "Two Worst Senators" contest.
Oklahoma, IMO, is in the lead, with South Carolina coming up fast on the inside.

But anybody who rules out Kentucky with those two clowns is on iffy turf.

21. Bunning is a bottom-feeding piece of shit human being
whose only contribution to the planet is shit for the bacteria at the water treatment plant and carbon dioxide for plants.
