Inhofe ‘excited’ by attempted attack on his plane in Iraq.»

After his plane was forced to take evasive maneuvers to avoid rocket-propelled grenades while taking off from Baghdad, Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-OK) said “he watched through the window as the grenades exploded near the plane. He said he felt the blasts.” Asked if he was frightened, Inhofe responded, “Not a bit. I was kind of excited.”

    I wonder how excited he would have been if the Plane had gone down and he’d survived to be captured by the Insurgents. What a Moron!


  2. Ricky Says:

    Well crap. We could always use another pair of boots on the ground, sign him up; Along with his kids, it’ll be just like disney world. A little disney vacation.


  3. Jim Inhofe Says:

    I was really hoping we’d go down.

    Maybe next time.

  5. Frank J Says:

    Eliot Spitzer’s fall from grace is extraordinary. A mere seven months into his term after a landslide victory, the Empire State’s brash new governor is openly ridiculed as a liar and worse. An astonishing 80 percent of respondents tell pollsters they want the governor to testify under oath to prove his claim that he had nothing to do with “troopergate,” a dirty-tricks plot to smear Senate Majority Leader Joe Bruno, a Republican rival.

    His fellow Democratic pols are largely abandoning him. After two investigations found that his top aides used the state police for a political hit job, and with four more probes gearing up, one of which could bring indictments, Spitzer is suddenly a lonely man. As one prominent supporter put it, “nobody believes him when he says he didn’t know.”


  6. Jim Inhofe Says:

    And then that idiot Martinez dropped his cigar into the ammo crate but fortunately my urine put it out.


  7. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Hey Frank. This thread is about me. Try and remember that.


  8. Jim Inhofe Says:

    I still don’t understand though why the pilot kept calling Martinez “moe”.


  9. dlet Says:

    In other words Inhofe had a wargasm.

    It called “saying on topic”. If you can’t do it, I suggest starting your own blog, but w/ a personality like yours, you’d die of loneliness.


  11. Serenity Now Says:

    Look everybody! Inhofe is a tough guy!


  12. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Maybe next time they’ll let me kill someone.

    Hmm. Someones impersonating me. Oh well. Impersonation is the highest form of flatter. Kind of like me, impersonating a normal human being.


  16. troqua Says:

    Let me guess. Frank is lost?


  17. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Frank didn’t want to talk about me, getting aroused at the possiblity of everyone on board of the aircraft I was on, burning to the ground to their deaths.

    I can’t imagine why.


  18. Jim Inhofe Says:

    I think I’m going to apply for a purple heart.

    I burned my dick on the M60 Barrel when I was hanging out the window trying to catch shrapnel with my teeth.


  19. Styve Says:

    I was telling a friend about this event, and Martinez’ romantic vision of the pilot banking to avoid whatever, and I said that I bet they all discreetly made a bathroom run after to change their soiled/skidmarked shorts.


  20. Zooey Says:

    Inhofe continues to prove how big a moron he is….


  21. Drew Says:

    In the Tulsa World, Inhofe states that it was Al-Qaeda who shot at the plane. It’s in the next to last paragraph.


  22. buzzbomb Says:

    Tomorrow Inhofe will say he personally shot down the rockets.


  23. BARTLEBEE Says:

    I bet they’ll next come out and try to say the Democrat was scared, and they were not. Watch.

    At this point, I’m surprised he didn’t claim it was Osama Bin Laden himself firing the rockets.


  25. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Next I think I’ll write a book and go on the lecture circuit to share with the civillians my true tales of courage under fire. I’ll call the book, “True Tales of Courage Under Fire”.

    Isn’t Inhofe a Chickenhawk? Or maybe it is a redundant question?

    Comment by Zooey — August 31, 2007 @ 10:26 pm

    I wonder how many times Inhofe had to sit next to Larry Craig in the Senate or during a hearing knowing (they had to know, is not suspect) that he was gay or, for him possibly worse, having to wonder. Or the other two big rumors, Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell.

    Inhofe once boasted that he was proud that in the “recorded history” of his family, there has never been a gay person. I wonder how proud he is to have worked along side them in the Senate.

    And how much is the fossil fuel industry paying him to be their lapdog?


  28. Ghost Rytter Says:

    Well Sen. Jim Inho, the troops don’t want to be over in Iraq. Their families don’t want them over in Iraq. The Americans who voted for you believe you aren’t doing your job. So if you were doing your job the right way, the troops would of been home and that missle wouldn’t have scared the life out of you.


  29. Jim Inhofe Says:

    It was hot under the Baghdad sun that morning….


  30. RPG? Says:

    If these blasts were so close their should be some shrapnel damage to the plane. I have an odd feeling that these blasts are not what they appear to be. Can a RPG go 6,000 feet into the air? The RPG-7 has a 4.5 second timer, as well its range of rocket assisted flight is 500 meters [about 1500 feet] At the maximum range of 920 meters, RPGs self explodes (4.5 seconds from firing) 920metersx3feet=2760 feet [roughly] One meter is a little more than three English feet, or about 39.37 inches

    I wasn’t scared. I was aroused I tell you. AROUSED!


  32. Drew Says:

    Inhofe’s challenger in 08 will be Andrew Rice from OKC, a religious realist I guess you would say. And a Progressive. Maybe things will get a little less crazy in OK.

    Let Inhofe (R) stay 15 months riding a humvee in troop rotation and see how excited he is after that.

    Who knows? This is a guy who thinks being locked up at Guantanamo prison is as relaxing as a stay at the Hilton.

    Craig is a true Conservative ideologue. Conservative ideology is all about suppressed homo eroticism. That should be abundantly clear by now. What better way to hide the fact that you’re gay, a lying thief, and a traitorous thug than to hide behind religious morality, law and order and the flag than to be a Republican? It’s the ultimate refuge for someone who lives a life of self contradiction and denial.

    Who was it who said “Patriotism is the last resort of scoundrels.” They hit the nail on the head.

    Crying racist is the last refuge of a scoundrel.

    As for Craig, I’m not sure how he voted on sodomite marriage and the like probably against since he was representing his contituents who oppose it and other moral issues. He is a criminal more than a hypocrite and the party has tossed him out.

    Now the left with Jefferson, Kennedy, Frank, et al?

    No Frank,

    Do Tell.


  69. Snowball Says:

    Sorry Frank, we don’t kick people out of the party for just being gay.
    Jefferson, he’s another matter. No Democrat supported him except low information voters in his district. He should be gone. I think you’ll find little disagreement on any Liberal blog about that.

    But that has nothing to do with the topic at hand. What we really need to know Frank is: Were you born straight or is it just a matter of choice for you?

    Don’t worry, we Libs won’t judge you harshly because you like a little man love on the side. Just don’t persecute others for being like yourself. That we call hypocrisy,


  70. Marie Says:

    And if his plane had gone down, would he have excitedly praised Bush and the war all the way?
    The man is a fool, playing the role of what he thinks is a “tough guy” — a revolting character.


  71. Snowball Says:

    True patriots expect the best from their country and work to improve it. Scoundrels hide behind the flag and follow strongmen without question.


  72. Dave C Says:

    Too bad Inhofe didn’t find the military exciting enough to serve when he was younger. Just another chickenhawk willing to sacrifice young Americans so he can get off.

  76. Dave C Says:

    At least now Inhofe has some real wartime experience. About 20 seconds worth. Just like GWB, he delivered a plastic turkey to the troops. That probably caused him to work up a sweat. It’s hard, hard work.

    Aside from the fact that your facts are wrong (there was no prostitution ring being run out of Franks’s basement. He had a gay lover and didn’t deny it), what about David Vitter? Republicans cheered him after he was outed for soliciting prostitutes. I guess they were just excited by the rare occurrence of a heterosexual act by a Republican.

    Actually, its not. Its all about us. And, its cool.


  132. Zep Tepi Says:

    I have no idea what konservo came for or why, nor do I worry about it nor does it matter.


  133. Starve-A-Bush_Feed-A-Beaver Says:

    Inhofe to receive the “Brown Diaper” award, superior for Republicans to the Purple Heart.


  134. Zep Tepi Says:

    konservo is another intelligent, but failed, mind. I once thought perhaps he could find that truth that exists in all people. I erred. He will never see beyond his rote education.

    A Plato with no Socrates.


  135. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Hey I’m serious about applying for the Purple Heart.

    My ego got bruised because I had to share the experience with a Democrat.

    Thats gotta count for something.


  136. Jim Inhofe Says:

    The troops should be thanking us for letting them stay and play in Iraq for so long.

    War is fun.

    :)

    Look at how much fun I had and I didn’t even get to kill anybody.

    Piffle. Konservo is an idiot.

    Playdoh, yes, Plato, not so much.

    Into this house we’re born…

    My brain is squirming like a toad!


  140. Jim Inhofe Says:

    I asked the pilot if he would spin the chopper in and smash us into the ground so I could see what that feels like but he just kept pointing his sidearm at me and telling me to sit down.


  141. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Next time I’m gonna just grab the controls.


  142. Bob Says:

    ronjazz always roots for the cancer to kill Tony.

    He is a compassionate Libtard.


  143. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Let Tony get his own thread. This ones about me, and my amazing heroism and courage under fire.

    Got it?


  144. Jim Inhofe Says:

    And regardless of what the pilots tell you I don’t believe it was my Wagner CD playing on the squawkbox that drew the enemy fire.


  145. Deborah Says:

    Further proof that the neocons are not human. Any normal human being would’ve needed a crowbar to pull the seat out of their tooshies, and then a fresh pair of undies.

    Twit!

    Whats wrong with you bleeding hearts?

    Wouldn’t you rather be bleeding heads?

    Its fun!


  154. Jim Inhofe Says:

    I told you, I got excited today. I don’t know what those silly troops are complaining about. I had a blast and I didn’t even get to shoot anyone!

    Imagine how fun it would be if they let me do that.

    War is fun.

    Tell your kids.

    Oh yea thats right. He’s in your district huh Zooey?

    Yea that sucks…. er….pun not intended.

    sort of.


  159. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Well don’t worry. We’ll get you another self righteous closet homosexual republican senator soon. We’ve just got to find one that hasn’t already been outed.


  160. Zooey Says:

    Good luck to ya!!


  161. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Fortunately, thanks to the Skull and Bones society, thats a fairly wide net.


  162. Toss these losers Says:

    This story gets more bullshit added to it every time it’s told. Leave it to the Repukes to make it sound like they narrowly avoided death…..puulease.

    Maximum range of a RPG is 300m in capable hands and that’s intended to be a flat trajectory across the ground. A hack trying to shoot one pretty much straight up has little to no chance of hitting something like a C-130 especially with the highly evasive takeoff maneuvers these folks use just because of such threats.

    One report from one of the 3 stooges on board claimed they were at 6,000 feet or thereabouts making these bold, evasive moves to escape the RPGs and Inhofe claims the blast was right outside the plane????

    Does anyone fact check anymore or just run with the sensationalism angle? And the reichwing will of course be swallowing whatever bullshit this same “truth tellers” roll out when it comes to the progress on the ground?


  163. Zep Tepi Says:

    Inohofe wasn’t killed, so that’s progress, right? Get the spinmeisters on it, you Oklahoma cowboy.l


  166. Jim Inhofe Says:

    You know Bush is a nugget-knocker, right? I mean, you don’t think Laura would have married him if she actually had to sleep with him do you?

    Can you picture it? “whats this thing..? heh heh”

    No I heard they extracted the spooge from Karl Roves butt, then impregnate Laura so the kids look like dad, or are at least as dumb as him.


  167. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Inohofe wasn’t killed, so that’s progress, right?

    Comment by timeisart — September 1, 2007 @ 1:41 am

    Actually I was.


  168. Jim Inhofe Says:

    I got better.


  169. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Just remember people.

    The progress in Iraq iis directly related to how good we tell you it is.

    :|


  170. scooter Says:

    JIM,,,, Your probably right about the BUSH thing…
    As for HILLARY,,, i feel sorry for her…. little chelsea looks more like thier (family) postman than BILL.
    And thats ugly…..

    I guess HILLARY just did’nt like the SEED of a BASTARD… EHHH
    That and the postman was really nice to her.


  171. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Because you’re not there and don’t have to experience any of it so then things will improve as soon as you start believing that they already have.

    :\


  172. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Am I being clear enough here people?


  173. scooter Says:

    Jim,,,, the progress in IRAQ is not related to how the people THERE tell you it is…. That is the sole discretion of PELOSI and REID who make a daily visit every year.
    Or did you miss that memo too…?


  174. scooter Says:

    Your right JIM,,,,, you “confirming” what others THERE are telling me is enough…
    UNLESS of course pelosi or reid tell you something else.


  175. scooter Says:

    Of course when KATIE COURIC gets there,.,,, well we all know how independant and just she is….
    We can all believe her… (she is too cute not to believe)


  176. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Scooter. Lets remember who and what this thread is about. It has nothing to do with the Clintons and everything to do with me and my utter herosim under fire.

    I’ve tasted death now, or at least sniffed it, and started into the black abyss, crying the warrior call.

    “caw caw”

    I am a warrior. A battleaxe in the hand of the almighty. I am a trojan horse,… soft and squishy on the outside, but inside full of hardened men.

    :|

    Scratch that last one. …. but what I am tryign to say is I am now battle hardened and ready to lead us into glorious battle. My nerves are steely like and courage under fire unquestionable, as I have now proven my mettle in the heat of awful combat, and in the fires of hell.


  177. scooter Says:

    You’ll listen to KATIE right? Whats not to listen too? about 5 foot 5, a lovely smile, a perky attitude, and a mother too boot…. PLUS a couple days in country under heavy guard.

    She will be a mountain of information….. Nothing staged i’m sure….

    Don’t you just LOVE your sources……


  178. Jim Inhofe Says:

    What the hell are you talking about and when did Katie Couric come into the conversation?


  179. AVGVSTVS Says:

    Jim,

    You’re an idiot.


  180. scooter Says:

    You sure are brave JIM,,,, almost as BRAVE as HILLARY defending her position on voting for the WAR in IRAQ….
    and then being upset about the outcome….

    Now that is BRAVE and takes more BALLS than both you or I…..

    Of course she assumed BUSH would’nt actually really do it…. I mean look at her own HUSBAND…. using him as a precedent… and not being ABLE to ACTUALLY do it with MONICA,,,, How could she know BUSH really would DO IT?


  181. Jim Inhofe Says:

    I am not an idiot. I am a battle hardened hero of the fatherla…..er, I mean homeland. I am Rambo, Rocky and the Rock, all rolled into one.

    I was more than ballast on that ride today. I was a one man blitzkrieg.


  182. scooter Says:

    Oh come on,,,,, don’t you dare sit there and deny that KATIE”S word on the matter is gospel.
    SHE IS CUTE,, and LIBERAL what else do you need?


  183. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Hmm. You guys seem to have this overwhelming desire to turn this thread about me and my courage under fire in Iraq, into a discussion on the Clintons.

    :|

    Why is that?


  184. Jim Inhofe Says:

    And WHAT the hell does Katie Couric have to do with any of this?

    This is about me and my courage under fire.

    Period.



  185. scooter Says:

    Who is calling JIM an idiot….. he most certainly is a HERO….. well,,, incomparison to RAY NAGIN in NEW ORLEANS,,, your most definitly a HERO…
    During KATRINA the poor man was looking for POLICE PROTECTION for himself…..

    YEP,,, REPUBLICAN hero’s and DEMOCRATIC zero’s


  186. Jim Inhofe Says:

    You know, a lot of people thought the pilot banked to avoid the rockets.. but thats not quite how it happened.

    I was trying to steer into the rockets for a better photo op and the pilot jerked the controls out of my hand causing us to bank like that.

    :|

    Good thing I did to. Probably saved our lives.


  187. scooter Says:

    Jim,,,, if your going to discuss HERO’s and leave out the CLINTONS or KATIE,,,, then you have issues my friend..

    They are peas in a pod…. peas in a pod


  188. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Wow. I’ve seen some streches before, but now we’re discussing Ray Nagin and Katrina in a thread about me and the Iraq war?

    You guys sure are good… or at least comitted, to changing the topic of this thread, huh?


  189. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Oh well. Don’t worry. I won’t let you.

    I’ll be here all night just to make sure you don’t forget its about me.


  190. scooter Says:

    Wow,,, jim ,,,, thank god you were there,,, i mean helping on the steering,,,, good job…

    Can you IMAGINE CYNTHIA MCKINNEY in your position?
    OH my HECK,,,, now there’s a thought.


  191. Jim Inhofe Says:

    And my oh so brave heroism under fire.

    War is fun, and I’m spreading the word.


  192. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Because clearly your answer to anything about me is to bring up a democrat.


  193. scooter Says:

    Thanks jim for keeping us on the topic of HEROISM….
    but you don’t honestly believe were going to ignore all the BRAVE LIBERALS in this country who are just as HEROIC if not more so than yourself do you????

    Of course not.


  194. Jim Inhofe Says:

    And this thread isn’t about democrats.

    Its about me, and my brave heroics in saving the day by sitting in my seat.


  195. scooter Says:

    JIM,,,, the topic is HEROISM and if that does not scream out for LIBERAL DEMOCRATS then I don’t know what does?

    Your not going to change the topic from HEROISM are you?


  196. JO MAMA Says:

    More right wing trollscum.

    Can’t deal with the issues on hand, always crying. “,wahhhh, but the liberals did something tooo….wahhhhhh wahhhhh.

    Trolls.

    See them, bash em in the head.


  197. JO MAMA Says:

    This thread isn’t about liberals right wing loser trolls.

    Its about Jim Inhofe, and all his glory.


  198. scooter Says:

    You and I both know that the TRUE HEROISM in our society is PACIFISM, WUSSISM, and LIBERALISM…

    These have all be PROVEN to take the most courage and bravery under fire….

    YOUR brave,,,, YEP,,,, but the true HEROISM resides here in this country.


  199. Jim Inhofe Says:

    Don’t worry JO. I will be here to make sure these whippersnappers don’t distract from my heroic patriotism.

    I have proven wars not so bad, so these troops need to stop crying and suck it up.

    I did it.

    So can they.


  200. AVGVSTVS Says:

    fartles,

    Shut the F^ck uP!!!!


  201. scooter Says:

    The next sucker who denys the courage of JIM does not deserve to give NANCY PELOSI a PEDICURE….. got it.


  202. JO MAMA Says:

    What would you know about bravery? Did you fly in a chopper over Iraq?

    No you’re just sitting here from your keyboard. Another Fallwell U graduate running his mouth from his keyboard.


  203. scooter Says:

    Your right JIM,,, the troops should get crackin,,,,
    For some reason they get depressed when the TRUE HEROES back in this country tell them they are failing….

    Don’t they know who the true HEROES are?

    And why do they keep voting for the semi heroic REPUBLICANS when they should be voting for the REALLY heroic DEMOCRATS? HELP THEM JIM?


  204. BARTLEBEE Says:

    Oh look. Someone was mocking poor inhofes tales of daring and in come the wormwoods.

    What do the wormwoods do?

    Why they cry, thats what they do. They’re paid crybabies.

    Crying about every democrat in the world, trying to take peoples attention off the mocking of their propaganda preacher, inhofe.

    How utterly pathetic.


  205. scooter Says:

    JO MAMA,,, you sure are giving me more credit than I deserve,,,, I did’nt graduate from FALLWELL U or even HIGHSCHOOL for that matter….

    I screwed around knowing that the GOVT will be there to take care of me…. welfare is a blessing….
    Thank GOD for the HEROIC LIBERALS and the method they provide for me to take from JO MAMA and just sit on my computer in safety.


  206. BARTLEBEE Says:

    Yea wimpwood. They’ve also got the true heroes of the right wing, sitting comfortably from the keyboards cheering on the war like the good little cheerleaders you are.

    Wave your pom poms wimp.


  207. BARTLEBEE Says:

    Shake your little pom poms like your divine fuhrer did in college, you miserable little inbred bootlicking worm.


  208. scooter Says:

    bartlebee,,, I already warned folks about denigrating the bravery of JIM…. If you dare to take it a notch HIGHER and denigrate a really HEROIC LIBERAL over here then things are gonna get ugly….


  209. BARTLEBEE Says:

    Shake those pom poms scooter.

    Shake em like the good little cheerleader you are.


  210. BARTLEBEE Says:

    Ra Ra Ra.


  211. scooter Says:

    Please feel free to denigrate a PORN PORN such as myself sitting here in safety…. cheerleading a war i”m not fighting myself,,,

    Of course you don’t POOH POOH a war while sitting on a computer…. NEVER


  212. BARTLEBEE Says:

    Say how’d you inbred rednecks do in the first American civil war?

    I forgot.


  213. scooter Says:

    Pooh pooh pooh,,,,,


  214. Jane E. Schneider Says:

    Bartlebee, keep it up, I’m enjoying this! :D


  215. BARTLEBEE Says:

    Right wing little wimp worms. Cheering the war on from the safety of their keyboards but unwilling to fight it.


  216. scooter Says:

    Sheesh man,,,, careful,,,, don’t you know it’s the REDNECKS that will have all the GUNS when the shit goes down,,,,,, Better make em your friends while you can….

    Find a couple i can be buddies with too EHHHH


  217. BARTLEBEE Says:

    Bush was like that you know. In college his dad wanted him on the football team. So did Babs I hear. They pushed him to go tryout.

    Well imagine their embarrassment when he walked in carrying those pom poms.


  218. BARTLEBEE Says:

    It must have been very uncomfortable for them.

    maybe steal some business from yourself and JO MAMA along the way ehhh


  236. Jim Inhofe Says:

    You know, when I was leaving the cargo transport the pilot told me, (after he made me let go of the wheel) that he had sized me up, and could already predict what my last words will be.

    He said they’d be, “what’s this button do“?

    Now I’m not a spiritual man but I think he may have powers…. you know??

    :|

    By the way, anyone know what that means?
