* So everyone says Herman Cain is supposed to fade and Romney is the inevitable nominee, and now Romney is ahead in the polls in the first four states of the primary. It’s just as foretold! We’re doomed!
How is it that the Republican presidential primary is set up so that we’re always stuck with a milquetoast, status quo nominee? We get right-wingers in the House and the Senate and as Governor but just can’t do it in presidential primaries. Whoever set up the Republican primary system must be some sort of RINO genius.
* Obama sure likes to reveal his complete disconnect from his fellow Americans at San Francisco fundraisers. Before the 2008 election, that’s where he talked about all the “bitter-clingers”, and now he went there to talk about the horrors of self-reliance. Yes, he considers self-reliance to be a bad thing and government reliance to be a good thing. Really, did the pilgrims come here because they were hoping to find a new government to take care of them? Did people head out West because they thought in that expanse they’d find a government to better protect them?
Not only is Obama completely incompetent, he doesn’t even have the slightest connection whatsoever with what this country is about. He’s not so much a bad president as he is an anti-president — opposed to everything an American president should be for.
When Obama is thrown out of office, for the millionth time in my adult life I will be proud of this country.
* Something is going on in Europe. I keep trying to read the article to find out what, but I can’t make myself care enough to pay attention because it’s about a bunch of foreign countries. Does that make me jingoistic? If it does, I don’t really care. But anyway, something is going on in Europe. Thought you should know.
* Look at this chart of opinion on the right to hand gun ownership over the past fifty years. Is there really any disputing that gun rights people have completely and utterly won this battle? Does anyone really think a stark trend like this that has been going on for fifty years can suddenly be reversed? Like do they think going around yelling, “Guns kill people!” is going to have any effect? “Oh? Really? They do? We totally missed that compelling argument over the past fifty years.”
Note to gun control people: It’s over. You get to go sit at the same table as racists. We’re not going back there.
Yay freedom.
* When asked, Michael Moore kept dodging the question of whether he’s in the top 1% in this country — even though it’s well known he is in both wealth and size.
Be extremely wary of anyone giving weaselly politician non-answers who is not a politician. Also, be wary of politicians.
Really, though, I have trouble understanding how anyone takes this guy seriously — and I’m very good at understanding most anything because I’m super smart. But this is beyond me. I don’t think there has been anyone in human history more obviously full of it than Michael Moore, and it’s incomprehensible that anyone who has something resembling human intelligence would look at him and say, “Here is someone with a genuine, useful point of view.”
But, hey, he makes lots of money. Go capitalism!
* The Democrats recall effort on Governor Walker isn’t going so great. But I thought there was huge outrage against him for taking on unions? Weren’t unions so popular… a hundred years ago?
Maybe unions will have a big comeback… along with the radio serial.
* Heh.
Mikey misunderstood the question. He thought they were asking if he WANTED 1% as in skim milk. He usually just drinks melted butter with a little sugar.
Europe? I feel like I should know if that is actually a place or not. Oh well, if it does exist its probably some socialism loving continent that the hippies want to imitate.
“He’s not so much a bad president as he is an anti-president — opposed to everything an American president should be for.”
…but in favor of pretty much everything a Kenyan citizen would be for.
The mere sight of Michael Moore’s shambling, dishevelled, unhygienic, obese form coupled with the idiocy that flows from his fetid gob riles a reasonable person to take up musket and unload it somewhere in the folds of fat where said beast’s junk is likely to be. Other than that, he’s OK with me.
I’ve got this brilliant idea: the Republicans will let small states like Iowa and New Hampshire choose our (Though I am an independent, well, what other option do I have?) candidate for us! By God, I think this a wonderful notion! That way, the Republicans of states like Pennsylvania, Texas, Florida, and others won’t have to bother with voting for their preferred candidate in a way such that those votes would actually matter! Also, this plan guarantees the influence of the media!
But Jeopardy! victory goes not to the biggest brain—it goes to the smoothest thumb.
Ken Jennings could have included famous gun slingers to that piece of wisdom.
I now follow Ken Jennings.
Thanks for saving the wisdom of the day for me.
Wisdom of the day — from Greg Gutfeld regarding the Zuccotti Park protesters: “They talk out of both sides of their mouths, and one of those sides is their butt.”
Top 1%’ers
Michael Moore-weight
Michele Obama-thigh size
Nancy Pelosi-wicked witchiness
Chris Matthews-douchebaggedness
George Sorros-wealth
Most libs are in the top 1%. You just have to define the category.
Michael Moorefood has all of the appearance and actions and speech of an escapee from a mental institution. If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck…
Oh, never mind, he ate the duck.
Gun control nuts are today’s flat earthers.
Give Michael Moore credit: He’s the first non-Soviet to tell blatant fictions and get people to believe they are documentaries. He’s really good at lying. At least in film. I guess that’s a talent.
Moore/Christie sumo match — come on, guys! Let’s go!
Pretty much all of the OWSers are in the bottom 1% intelligence-wise. I mean, we’re talking the far left-hand tail of the intelligence curve here.
Ernie, you mean the point when they stop using numbers and just call it “potted plant”
Not sure what’s going on in EUnuchstan, but it’ll probably end up in war as it usually does.
My only opinion on it that I say that whoever takes France, we make them keep it. It’ll serve them both right.
along with the radio serial? I love radio serials. It makes me think of those days when my mother would gather us all around that big console radio and we would sit on the floor close enough to tune it every 5 minutes when the signal faded. I would get excited when the creaking door opened and when Molly said “Don’t open that closet!” We would listen and look at each other smiling silently. You young punks just don’t know about family time. I still have some Bob and Ray tape cassettes around and “Who’s On First” is a classic
First McCain, now Romney is being pushed on us by the so-called Political Elite.
It’s like the perverbial unconsummated marriage….even though his past history may leave her a bit wary to accept his request to go to the Altar…..
he says the right things, makes the right promises….
but when it comes down to having to actually seal the deal, he is either unwilling or unable or to fulfill the obligation.
RINO:
Republican Impotent Nominee for Office……
Cain on the otherhand IS able to seal the deal.
Of course Cain is out and Romney is back in.
The right-wing knows that the problem with Obama is he’s a Democrat who believes in big government, socialized medicine, government health mandates, open borders, entitlements for illegals and cronyism. So they’re going to try to replace him with a Republican who will bring big government, socialized medicine, government health mandates, open borders, entitlements for illegals and cronyism to the White House instead!
I have no wing anymore. I am wingless.
The pioneers went west because they were sick and tired of freedom and hated the Constitution and such. They heard the beat of drums from the Indians and figured they would head out and see if they would take care of them. The rest is history, ma boy!
> * Heh.
Indeed.
About 4 hr ago I took possession of a brand new Taurus 608089
Which is a 357 8 inch barrel 8 rnd cylinder With 8 gas ports
Oh noes, an 888 plan.
I get to improve my gun control sunday.
Quit worrying about Romney or any president. If we’re really going to shrink government the house and Senate will be key. If they are serious, a blue state Republican will go along. If they aren’t, a fire breather in the white house won’t matter.
#20 – Bob_R,
I agree.
The state races will be important too.
If fly-over country turns deep red, and the blue states shade to purple, the Federal govmint just won’t matter that much anymore, which will be the way this whole Federalism thing was supposed to work out in the first place.
Do you seriously think that guys like the Orange Boner and Orin Hatch are going to shrink government? If you do, you need to pull your head out of your ass and punch yourself in it. Then go ahead and stick it back up your ass because you are too dumb to participate!!!
Five stars for the “Heh”
Also, who’s this everyone you keep talking about? It doesn’t include me, so I must be part of everyone else.
Oh, yeah, as I am part of everyone else, I really don’t give a crap about what everyone says.
Some people reduce their weight because they want to improve their health, and some people reduce their weight because there just isn’t any food left and they’re starving.
The politicians will reduce the size of government for one of those same reasons; because it’s healthier for them, or because there’s nothing left for them to steal.
Whether there’s nothing left for them to steal because the economy crashed or because the States got together and changed the locks on the national pantry remains to be seen.
States Rights!! 10th Amendment!!! Go Galt!!!!!111!
