Braggin' Bill Richardson

Did you ever start bragging, maybe expand the truth a little about your abilities, your net worth? You know, maybe tell the guys, some chick, that you played pro-ball or something like that?

And did you ever get completely and totally busted on it?

Gov. Bill Richardson is coming clean on his draft record _ the baseball draft, that is, admitting that his claim to have been a pick of the Kansas City A's in 1966 was untrue.

For nearly four decades, Richardson, often mentioned as a possible Democratic presidential candidate, has maintained he was drafted by the Kansas City Athletics.

The claim was included in a brief biography released when Richardson successfully ran for Congress in 1982. A White House news release in 1997 mentioned it when he was about to be named U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. And several news organizations, including The Associated Press, have reported it as fact over the years.

But an investigation by the Albuquerque Journal found no record of Richardson being drafted by the A's, who have since moved to Oakland, or any other team.
Informed by the newspaper of its findings, the governor acknowledged the error in a story in Thursday's editions.

"After being notified of the situation and after researching the matter ... I came to the conclusion that I was not drafted by the A's," he said.

Glad the research cleared that up.

And in that forthcoming spirit, I need to inform you that some of my statements about myself may have created a misunderstanding or two in the minds of readers of this site.

As a result of my research, I have come to the conclusion that I am NOT, in fact, married to Monica Bellucci.

I'm sorry my previous, mistaken statements created this impression.

Furthermore, I am to understand, we have not been living together on a private estate in Northwestern Italy either.

What I mistook, perhaps carelessly, for a small Tuscan villa, research now leads me to believe is, almost certainly, my mother’s basement. And records reveal my companion there is not Ms. Bellucci, but, in fact, my brother Lloyd.

Furthermore, my restored Camero does not, in fact, reach speed of up to “three hundred miles per hour.” My research reveals my prior claims were likely the result of a faultily constructed after-market speedometer. The instrument has been removed and its manufacturers have been notified of the hazard. (The Camaro’s overall ‘sweetness’, however, remains unaffected by these developments.)

Thank you. I apologize to readers for the confusion.

I guess Hillary decided to dump him as a running mate and so using her vast resources aka stolen RBI files, she found something to both expose him as a liar and expose him to ridicule and derision.

Posted by: Michael on November 25, 2005 11:48 AM

Another thing that people seem to think is funny but it isn't: "Ah-nold". Hardy har har. That joke was maybe slightly funny its first telling. Maybe.

Arnold may have actually needed an investigation to find out whose breasts he grabbed and when since after being a notorious womanizer for decades he probably lost track. His track record on that regard may have sank his campaign if the LA Times hadn't been so sleazy in holding the story until right before the election, coming across more as a dirty tricks outfit than an alleged respectable news source, and causing a massive backlash. So in a twisted way Arnold may have his womanizing to thank for becoming governor.

So it's a bitchin' Camaro?

Dead Milkmen forever!

What, you mean a supposedly impartial news source behaved in a shamelessly partisan fashion by trying to sabotage the election chances of the candidate it didn't approve of? Why, that's outrageous. I'm cancelling my subscription to the LA Times right now. I'll only watch CBS News and Dan Rather from now on.

IMPORTANT PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE AOSHQ COMMENT QUALITY CONTROL DEPARTMENT:

It has come to our attention that there is some confusion amongst the commenters on this site regarding the proper use of Recurring Themes (not "memes," which is itself an unacceptable Recurring Theme). Accordingly, we hereby issue the following guidance.

There are two types of Recurring Themes.

Type A are themes which speak directly to our core values. They bind us together as a community. They are always repeatable and are endlessly amusing and/or provocative.

Type B are themes that are tired repetitions of old jokes. They are boring. They expose the commenter as unoriginal and lacking a shred of creativity.

In order to assist you in discerning between Type A and Type B Recurring Themes, we are issuing the following examples. If you carefully study these examples, you will be able to correctly discern between acceptable and unacceptable Recurring Themes.

Type A

Example 1: Damn, I'd like to get my hands an bbeck's big jugs.

Example 2: The bias of the MSM was apparent again today because . . .

Example 3: Brewfan is a homo.

Type B

Example 1: It's old.

Example 2: I question the timing.

Example 3: Michael is a homo.

Thank you for your attention. As always, your cooperation in maintaining the high standards of AOSHQ comment threadis is greatly appreciated.

Posted by: AOSHQ Comment Quality Control Department on November 25, 2005 01:03 PM

You forgot this under Type B: "Ah-nuld".

Also, now that Ace has a quality control department, could someone get him to explain "yeahp"?

Posted by: Bob on November 25, 2005 01:07 PM

This will serve as official confirmation that Bob is correct: "Ah-nuld" is definitely a Type B Recurring Theme.

Posted by: Michael on November 25, 2005 01:15 PM

Quick question - does mentioning that Michael is a cuckold fall under the umbrella of Type A or Type B?

If you study the carefully selected illustrative examples in the foregoing Public Service Announcement, the answer to this question will be evident.

Posted by: AOSHQ Comment Quality Control Department on November 25, 2005 01:23 PM

Also, now that Ace has a quality control department, could someone get him to explain "yeahp"?

"Yeahp" is a rather juvenile and cutesy way of spelling "Yup" which generally downgrades the quality of a comment, and thus its use is discouraged.

Before that happened, other polling companies went public and complained that the LAT was rigging their polls against him. Remember, the LAT not only uses their polls to sabotage elections, they sell them to other newspapers for $$$.

Posted by: Mrs. Michael on November 25, 2005 02:13 PM

Okay, the worst thing that happened was actually a week or so after Black Friday, but it's still horrible/funny.

The store was packed full of customers, to the point where almost all of the carts were out on the floor. At the height of the busy day, smoke started coming out of the heating vents and the fire alarms went off. The store had to be evacuated, and then the fire department told everyone to leave the parking lot.

So we had literally hundreds of carts worth of stuff to put back on the shelf.

A funny aside to that story, though. One of us found a jacket on a cart, so we picked it up to put it into the lost and found. It seemed too heavy, and sure enough - there were VHS tapes and CDs stuck in every pocket.

The dumbass customer who left the jacket actually came back to claim it, too.

Posted by: Slublog on November 25, 2005 02:17 PM

The dumbass customer who left the jacket actually came back to claim it, too.

My cousin used to work as a photo-developer desk clerk, and he hated the Christmas season. This was before the computerized doodads that take a lot of the gruntwork out the job, but I digress. The quotidian sameness of the thousands of Chirstmas snapshots drove him bonkers.

His favorite story is one where some guy brought in several rolls of film to be developed just after Christmas. Well, one of the rolls of film contained some personal pictures of this guy romping with some chick dressed in a Santa hat and not much else. My cousin to did not develop these photos per company policy, but decided to give the guy a break and not report him (evidently it's a misdemeanor to submit these kinds of photos for public processing).

So the next day some gal shows up and asks for the pictures, saying she's this guy's wife. The kicker: it's not the chick in the photos! So my cousin tells her to wait just a few minutes, and he goes back and quickly develops some of the nastier photos, tucks them into an envelope, and hands the stuff to the lady with a cheery, "Have a nice, day, ma'am!"

I've always wished I could have been a fly on the wall when that lady opened up her pictures to see what heartwarming snaps Hubby took of the Yuletide festivities....

Officer, honest, I didn't mean to kill the thread! I was like, "Gee, wouldn't a Black Friday thread be funny?" Then Slublog posted his stupid little rant, I responded, and well..the thread just died! It's not my fault, I swear to God!

Posted by: rd on November 26, 2005 12:08 AM

Oh wow. Republicans catch a Democrat in another "big lie"! What is more amazing is that with something as heaviliy documented as baseball drafts, Richardson was able to "lie" about it for four decades without being called to task until now! I think Richardson made some claims about WMD in Iraq during his baseball days as well!

Richardson told the Journal that the draft process of the 1960s was "rudimentary" and insisted his name had appeared on "a draft list of some kind" created by the Los Angeles Dodgers and Pittsburgh Pirates. He named two scouts - Dick Hanlon from the Dodgers and George Owen from the Pirates - whom he said had told him his name would be placed on a list making him eligible for the draft. Both scouts are deceased.

Back in the summer of 1967, Richardson played for the Cotuit (Mass.) Kettleers, a team comprised of standout college players. Next to his name on a faded team program are the words, "Drafted by K.C."

"When I saw that program in 1967, I was convinced I was drafted," Richardson said. "And it stayed with me all these years."

Arnold Mycock, general manager of that team, said biographical information for the programs was supplied by players or their college coaches.

On the biographical sheet Richardson completed for Tufts in his junior year, he wrote, "Drafted by Kansas City (1966), LA (1968)." He said he wrote those words because he believed them to be true.

"I never tried to embellish this," he said. "I never tried to mask it."

There's this story about someone claiming to be a "small businessman" becoming President of the United States. Research showed that any business he was ever engaged in was a gimme due to his family ties, and were ultimately failures! He went on to be a failed President as well. Go figure.

Posted by: Ghost Dansing on November 26, 2005 06:04 AM

Yep, Ghost, back then professional teams had this great process for screening out stupid prospects. They didn't actually, you know, notify them or anything. they just snuck the information into faded old programs and such and let the smart athletes figure out for themselves that they had been drafted.

Why back when they drafted Mickey Mantle, they slipped a note inside the wrapper of a hot dog he got at a corner vendor. Willie Mays found out he was a member of the Giants thanks to a clever bit of skywriting.

"When I saw that program in 1967, I was convinced I was drafted," Richardson said. "And it stayed with me all these years."

Oh jeez, Dansing, are you actually buying this spin? Seriously? If we are to believe "Bruisin'" Bill Richardson, he was a hot young phenom whom the Athletics couldn't wait to get their hands on, but then, mysteriously, they never got around to notifying him.

Is that the story you're sticking to?

Posted by: OregonMuse on November 26, 2005 12:21 PM

Oregon, I think you're reading too much into Dansing's comments.

I think what he's trying to say is that from his standpoint, the kool-aid tastes good and that he'll give any politician with a "D" after their name the benefit of the doubt.

Either that, or he's a fucking idiot.

Either works for me.

"It's f**king f**ked."
-- reportedly a genuine comment offered by a "senior Labour source"
Correction: I wrote that Labour is losing 88% (now 87%) of the seats it is "defending." I think that's wrong. The right way to say it is the seats they are contesting -- that is, they don't necessarily already hold these seats, but they have put up a candidate to run for the seat. It's still very bad but not as bad as losing 87% of the seats they already held.

🚨ED MILIBAND [a Minister in Starmer's government] SAYS KEIR STARMER WILL RESIGN AS PRIME MINISTER

He has reportedly reassured Labour MP's that Starmer will be resigning following the disastrous results tonight

It's over
"The end of the two party system in the UK" as first the Fake Conservatives and now Labour chooses political suicide rather than simply STOPPING THE INVASION
Incidentally, the only reason this didn't already happen in the US is because of the Very Bad Orange Man (who is right on 85% of all policy calls and extremely, existentially right on 15% of them)
No political party that is NOT also a doomsday religious cult would EVER choose a cataclysmic loss -- and possible extinction as a party -- to support a toxically unpopular favoritism of NON-CITIZEN ILLEGAL MIGRANTS over actual citizen voters.

Only a cult does this.
Now they've lost 84%.
Annunziata Rees-Mogg
@zatzi
If this continues Labour loses 2,148 seats tonight.

That is much worse than the worst case predictions I’ve seen.

Cataclysmic

Update: They've now lost 88% of the seats they're defending. As I mentioned earlier, I think I heard that London will not bail them out, as many of those Labour seats will probably flip to "Muslim Independent" or Green. Detroit's 5am vote will not save them.
Yup, Labour is losing 80% of its seats...

@TheBritLad

🚨 BREAKING: Labour have lost 80% of all seats contested as of 2:25 AM.<
br> If this continues, Keir Starmer will be out of office next week.

Reform has surged and projected to pick up between 1700-2100 seats.


Wow, up to 1700-2100 seats. It's not incredible that this is happening. It's incredible that the Davos crowd is so absolutely determined to privilege Muslim "migrants" over the actual native population who elects them, no matter how loudly the natives scream that they want to be prioritized, that they will gladly self-extinguish as a party rather than simply representing the interests of their own voters. Astonishing.
Remember, when they call other people "cultists" -- they are the ones so imprisoned in their social reinforcement and discipline bubbles that they will choose political death rather than dare upset the Karen Enforcement Officers of their cult.
Update: Now they've lost 83% of the seats they were defending.

Reform are basically wiping Labour out in the North. It's not a defeat. It's not even a rout. Labour are simply ceasing to exist.

@lowles_nick

Tonight’s results are calamitous for Labour. Not just for Keir Starmer's leadership, but for the very future of the party
STARMERGEDDON: In early returns, Reform gains 135 seats, Labour loses 90, the Fake Conservatives lose 36 (and I didn't even know they could fall any further), the Lib Dems lose 4, and the Greens gain 6. Note that the only other party gaining seats is the Greens and they're only gaining a handful of seats.
Update: Reform now up 145, Labour down 98.
Labour projected to lose Wales -- where they've ruled for 27 years.
Fulton County Georgia just discovered 400 boxes of ballots for Labour
Update: REF +156, LAB -107, CON -45
Brutal: In four out of five council seats where Labour is defending, they've lost. 80%.
I'm sure it's not this simple, but Reform is straight taking Labour's and the "Conservatives'" seats. They've lost almost exactly what Reform gained. If understand this right (and warning, I probably don't), all of London's council seats are up for election, and Labour might lose hugely there, as their old voters abandon them for Reform, Muslim Indenpendents, and the Greens.
REF +190, LAB -134, CON -56.
Updates on the Labour collapse in council elections -- which wags are calling #Starmergeddon -- from Beege Welborne. There are about 5000 seats up for grabs, Labour is expected to lose 1,800, Reform will probably gain 1,580, up from... zero. So this would be more than that.
People claim that while Labour has adopted the Sharia Agenda to appeal to the million Muslims it allowed to migrate to the country, those voters are ditching Labour to vote for the Muslim Independent Party or the Greens. Delicious. This shadenfreude is going straight to my thighs.
Oh, and if Starmer loses about as badly as expected, Labour will toss him out of a window Braveheart style and replace him. He will announce he is resigning to spend more time with his Gay Ukrainian Male Prostitutes.
