It's kind of hard to tell what he is nowadays. Maybe soon unemployed.

Unemployed?
You mean Jeff Merkley, who thinks that Russia attacked Atlanta, Georgia in the USA... instead of the country next door. That guy is going to beat Senator Smith?
I doubt that. Maybe Novick. But not Jeff Merkley. The best news about Jeff's foreign policy gaff is that nobody listens to him anyway. Yawn.
Thanks for that fine troll contribution. We'll be using it in training.
I once thought no one could beat Gordo, but he's running so scared, he must have heard that he's in serious trouble. The Republican faithful have no use for him, and Obama's coattails are going to be long. Besides, why vote for a make-believe Democrat when you can have the real thing?
He's a troll because he doesn't agree with you, Jack? You're posting a political opinion on a blog that deals largely with local politics - did you really think one of the three Repubs in town could resist?
I thought Merkley was temporarily confused when someone asked him to comment on "what's going on in Georgia". Could someone show where he states that he thinks Russia attacked Atlanta?
All politics is local, Tip O'Neill succinctly said, but missed to add that every 'thing' social is political. Humans are a political animal. Strays and stragglers aren't.
Trolls stick out like pinocchio noses of liars, and moreso when they lapse the local loop and miss the memo. You might notice in the threads of Comments, lately, an absence of the phony indignations from an antisocial congregation. LIARS losers got lost, (no doubt in undisclosed locations -- Loren Parks punted, e.g., and is hole-up in a Howard-Hughes antiseptic cloister, gone south into Nevada), ever since the shockin' awful truth came out (of their TV mirrors) showing off their brown- and long-nosed shame. The collective gasp of suck-wind GOP goofs actually reversed the global warming for a week.
So none of them comment here for now, nor anywhere they can't be sociable. They hide, laid low. Along comes one who didn't get the memo, strutting out the olden baleful baldfaced billshut, (shoulda kept it shut), and the wooden nose sticks out like the last tree standing in a clearcut. That's a troll, and that's how you can tell.
What was so shockin' awful? Bush forged the "terr'ist" letter phony-linking to Saddam, (and in it, complimented Nigerian uranium false papers which he's also forged). Bush made and mailed the anthrax to the Congress. Bush pushed his Georgia mercenaries and zionistas into South Ossetia and they got their butts shot off. Bush got mutiny-ed (mute 'n' kneed?) by better-sense soldiers in Afghanistan -- 'hell no, we won't shoot any more of our Tilmans in the back' -- so now Dumbo can't get his poppy crop cashed out. Bush bought Musharraf the presidency in Pakistan, who pocketed the money and fled for Saudi palaces asylum, (they get half or more). And gas is four bucks a gallon. Now the House is articulating Impeachment. That's just in the last month.
Then he shows up at the Olympics drunk as a falling down skunk. Make that: 'fell down drunk.' Next thing you know the TV's gonna show bin Laden died 5 years ago. And even when he was alive, tied down to dialysis machines, he never ordered hijackers to suicide, (and the airlines reservation systems showed they weren't booked in, no seat assignments either), besides, his cultists laughed because bin Laden couldn't make them -- or they'd unplug his machine. Bush made Nine Eleven up; totally bogosity. Bush had set the demolitions in all 3 skyscrapers.
And to top it all off, Laura's made his life a Fright House hell, now that Guckert's gone. Along with Scoot-'er-in-here-Lippy and Turd Blossom.
All see the moron who Republicans admire most has grabbed the last plane for a get-away coast. The lockstep music died. You'd be speechless too, if all you ever said was, "what he said" -- and he high-tailed it out of Dodge.
Or else you'd be a solitary troll, still clueless blabbering.

I like Mapes's money quote: "He [the spook(ed) opponent] is spending millions of dollars to mislead voters about his ties to Democrats," said Matt Canter, spokesman for rival Democratic Jeff Merkley, "and then throws his good friend John McCain under the bus to get reelected."
Ha. The guy running against Merkley has also thrown LIARS under the bus -- he don't 'get' on the program anymo'. For the same reason he don't kiss possums quarantined with rabies -- it's contagious. Political death without no dignity.
Merkley's absent opposite is a flippin' Gemini. All double-crossers are Gemini. Of course he betrayed crown prince McCain. (Geminis disdain of venal Virgos; and Pisces pukes -- that's LIARS.)
I've got a theory, though, which harkens back to Berkman's GOP embezzlements. (Craig's list, BY NIGEL JAQUISS, Willamette Week, July 9th, 2008.) Former Oregon Republican Party chairman ... Berkman, 66, defrauded investors and must pay them a total of $28 million .... Over the past year, ... he and his new wife, former New York beauty queen Mary Ann Farrell-Karlsson, have given $50,000 to Republican causes.
Where'd he get that money while the Court has his accounts attached? My theory is, Berkman got the money to distribute from the 'filthy rich' war crimes accomplice running against Merkley. Then ...
McCain spokesman Brian Rogers said that Berkman's problems were overlooked by a "skeleton staff" that "was obviously focused on winning primaries."
"When we learned of the jury verdict earlier this month, the (McCain) campaign donated Mr. Berkman's contribution to the American Red Cross for Midwest flood relief and recovery,"
So McCain threw away his money to dreaded charity. That's why the abject turncoat running against Merkley threw McCain under the bus.
And, heck NO, he's not gonna go chill 'n' smile in Minneapolis. (As a consolation booby prize for playing the rebuttal game, Colin Powell said he's not going neither, to the Democratic Rockie Mountain high ... if that makes Legions of LIARS feel any better ... when it all balances out ... as if.)

You're right Jack. The Republican faithful around here are totally fed up with Gordo. They've even started a "write in Dave Lister" campaign.
That said, I think he will keep the seat, by a nose.
