Truth here.

Because they have no idea.

I have part time work. I have savings. I am frugal. I share a car with three others. I have a huge truck garden whose surplus I use for barter. I belong to a skills sharing coopt which means our repairs and improvements are done by those in the coopt.

At 65 I will have a pension, which we had to fight the takeover crowd to keep and did. I will have Social Security and Medicare. I will make it. Many others are not and will not.

What do you think was Romney’s effective rate?

How much is sheltered?

How much if off shore?

WHERE ARE THOSE TAX RETURNS?

Paul, in defense of his peculiar mix of military strength and neo-isolationism. There are moments when he speaks that I go: YEAH! RIGHT…..and then he finishes the sentence and I go: WHAT!

Santorum…is he suggesting those out of work long term, like me, whose age, experience, past pay, make me a terrible candidate for full time work should just DEAL WITH IT…..or perhaps he wants to us to commit ritual seppuku…hari kiri.

Gingrich…..buddy I have all the skills and the experience but business does not want someone like me……just ask the employment experts.

Idiots, jackasses, and trolls…..

BTW my company went under in a Bain-like buyout.

European style socialism.

Federal oppression of states.

Right to work (i.e. not have a union).

War on religion.

ALL LIES and the crowd cheers….a snapshot of the 44 percent who will vote against Obama no matter what.

Romney is giving his Stump Speech and they, Fox and its GOP friends, are letting him do it. Looks like the fireworks may be over.

Heard about the school district in PA that GOP Governor Corbett is literally trying to kill while funding charter schools in the same area. It is a GOP pattern.

These guys are sounding like a bunch of Democrats….in tone anyway. Red meat and chum. WH taking notes.

W-H-A-T I-S U-P W-I-T-H S-A-N-T-O-R-U-M?

Did he eat his wheaties, take hormone pills, get an extra dose of grace from the heavenly hosts……ZOWIE!

Romney believes he has been crowned Emperor and is acting the part. Imagine him in the Oval Office.

rolling on the floor.

Drinking game? We will all be dead drunk in half an hour.

But the GOTP really do not believe this….

TIME LIMITS are for the little people. Romney is channeling Leona Helmsley.

Perry threw down the Income Tax gauntlet sounding like a real challenger and then turned about and declared that unregulated Big Business is a good. So dumb he does not begin to see the internal contradiction.

Everyone know about the Andrew Sullivan article in Newsweek? How Obama’s Long Game Will Outsmart His Critics

http://www.thedailybeast.com/newsweek/2012/01/15/andrew-sullivan-how-obama-s-long-game-will-outsmart-his-critics.html

Outstanding. Really outstanding.

This is what the GOPBozos will be facing.

Romney is going to try for the high road….will Gingrich and Santorum let him get away with it. VP Candidate Santorum? The balloon has gone up. Loyal Opposition Gingrich- a newly anointed conservative pundit who chose not to take the ground out from under Romney.

OR

Will they go for it?

» Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On January 16, 2012 @ 6:09 pm

If I did not knew how vile and mean spirited Gingrich can be, I would find his push back on Romney laudable. I still approve of it but I know the G Man’s motives: revenge, setting himself up as a conservative icon, and giving him a stronger profile for all of those future books and speaking engagements.

What hypocrisy to begin with Dr. King….from those who hate the man in the White House who so often personifies his dream.

Thanks Ad Lib. I will be there. My oasis in the blogging insanity. Three Cheers for Planet POV and its fine Admin Team!

2012 New Hampshire Primary Thread

The GOP organizers in SC are still very powerful. They can shut down Newt if they choose to. The question is will they? It comes down to whether the inevitable is acceptable to those who represent core GOP audiences. If Mitt is ok with them, they can push the rest to the edges.

Hope you get a chance to see it…stunning.

» Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On January 10, 2012 @ 11:12 pm

Your last comment….great analysis of the opposing forces at work in the GOP. I sense real panic in the ranks. The idea of the big money powerbrokers threatening Newt and the Ricks is incredible. Do they think they can keep this quiet or that it will work? You named it- a coronation will not be acceptable or accepted.

Will the plastic man suffer from the heat in the Palmetto State?

» Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On January 10, 2012 @ 10:43 pm

Fox lined up solidly behind Romney with 24/7 coverage in defense of him and his Bain connections. They have shaped it as a defense of the American capitalist system and have accused Gingrich et. al. of taking up Obama’s socialist cause.

It could be much rougher going in SC.

Driving deeper and deeper wedges into the party….?

» Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On January 10, 2012 @ 10:04 pm

Read my description of the meeting below (to AdLib)….quite a scene…striking really.

» Posted By MurphTheSurf3 On January 10, 2012 @ 9:42 pm

Remember my thesis that the fix was in.

Well it may prove to be so just a few days late.

BUT Perry came off as calm, cool, collected, self assured, knowledgeable, sensible and sharp.

Unbelievable.

HOLD ONTO YOUR HATS….

Just saw Rick Perry hand Hannity his lunch on Fox!!!!!

Perry had a GREAT attack on Romney flawlessly delivered re. Bain and businesses in Gaffney and Georgetown SC.

Hannity pulled out all of his tricks and could not get Perry to flinch.

Made a strong case for the South being different and now it was Romney’s chance to show if he could face the heart of the GOP.

If THAT Perry had been around from the start, it would be a different race.
