Displaying 721 To 750 Of 2,270 Comments 2012 South Carolina GOP Primary Thread Ad, do you think that a Paul third-party run becomes more likely if Gingrich wins the nomination? I do, which is another reason the fix is in for Romney. » Posted By funksands On January 21, 2012 @ 7:41 pm I think Florida will be pretty close. But I still think Romney takes it. I wonder how their distaste for their current Gov. affects the race? » Posted By funksands On January 21, 2012 @ 4:18 pm Wow, this is going to be a double digit win. You gotta hand it to Gingrich, going emptier, bolder, meaner, and more racist really turned it around for him. Wonder how that’ll play in the next set of races in Minnesota, Maine, Colorado and Missouri? Why won’t conservatives huddle together in grumbling acquiescence under Romney? He’s all you have folks!! π » Posted By funksands On January 21, 2012 @ 4:14 pm How awkward. » Posted By funksands On January 21, 2012 @ 3:57 pm Pop Quiz: Which has more white iceberg? A salad from Chilis or a Romney family reunion? » Posted By funksands On January 21, 2012 @ 3:52 pm LIVE BLOG – GOP Debate in SC – 6:00 PM PST You know the debate us bad when posts start getting shorter and more colorful. On my way to Jacksonville!! Have fun everyone! » Posted By funksands On January 16, 2012 @ 6:55 pm I’m sitting in Bush International airport reading people live-blogging the GOP debate on MLK day. What have I done with my life? π » Posted By funksands On January 16, 2012 @ 6:33 pm Revelations of a 24-Hour MSM Cycle Sue, you have clearly shown what an empty wasteland the world of the 24 hr. news cycle is. This synopsis of your day makes my skin crawl. How did you feel after you were done? I watched a couple of Frontline episodes the other night and it was soooo refreshing. » Posted By funksands On January 14, 2012 @ 8:08 pm 2012 New Hampshire Primary Thread Ad, I couldn’t agree more. I honestly think this is the first really visible sign of the illness of the GOP as a national party. On a local level, guys like Louie Gohmert can still win a Congressional seat, but nationally they are sick. Obama has no business being in the position he is in at this point in the race, given the headwinds he’s had to fight alone. » Posted By funksands On January 10, 2012 @ 8:53 pm Too bad. I thought she was an excellent SOS » Posted By funksands On January 10, 2012 @ 8:40 pm LFer your observations are accurate. Guys like Romney view America as a host to be fed upon. It’s nothing personal, predators just eat. They exist as a delivery system for political power and money to the top .0005% The Family is the perfect symbiosis of that belief. Every year they ratchet up the rhetoric, move further right, until all they have left is jingoism, fantasy, platitudes, and single-celled organisms running for office. But they are too far in to turn back now. They won’t stop until they are stopped. For those bankrolling the party, there is too much money at stake. For those minions who serve those masters there is too much power at stake. For those poor suckers who vote for them, there is victory over the enemy at stake. » Posted By funksands On January 10, 2012 @ 8:36 pm All of Romney’s foreign policy guys are neo-cons. Specifically Bush administration neo-cons. Romney is running as Bush redux on foreign and domestic policy. Unreal. » Posted By funksands On January 10, 2012 @ 5:49 pm Cher, like he cares. » Posted By funksands On January 10, 2012 @ 5:47 pm LOL Hellllooooo 20% conservative turnout for the general. Ha Ha! π » Posted By funksands On January 10, 2012 @ 5:44 pm Oh my stars…. π » Posted By funksands On January 10, 2012 @ 5:43 pm It worked for the guy who ran after Hitler…. » Posted By funksands On January 10, 2012 @ 5:30 pm I’m pulling for Paul too, anything that can be done to drag out this freak show even longer and twist Romney into contortions. » Posted By funksands On January 10, 2012 @ 5:29 pm TakeInaPlay: Frankly I think you may be right. But I think that’s simply a regional preference. » Posted By funksands On January 10, 2012 @ 4:50 pm And he’s won a race or two before…. » Posted By funksands On January 10, 2012 @ 4:28 pm Romney All of Rick’s voters will be men with beautiful beards. » Posted By funksands On January 10, 2012 @ 4:26 pm Let me guess, this poor guy from Texas also has voted for every candidate to stand against any tax increases? Just a guess…. » Posted By funksands On December 20, 2011 @ 9:50 am Bito, what I THINK this has done is further clarified and improved on a really shitty bill passed in 2002 (The Authorization to Use Military Force bill) So we should have protested that bill in the first place, but now that THIS bill is passed that language from the previous bill is included, which allows everyone to have a fresh freak-out. Do I get a cookie? π » Posted By funksands On December 16, 2011 @ 3:37 pm This seems to be the main sticking point out in the media right now about NDAA: From @nicolesandler: @funksands REQUIREMENT to detain doesn’t mean they can’t – just means they’re not required to My response was that the word seems to refer to those people listed earlier in the bill that ARE REQUIRED to be detained, and then the word is used again to describe the context in which US Citizens CANNOT be detained. Comments? » Posted By funksands On December 16, 2011 @ 10:02 am ChoiceLady, thank you for this examination of the bill, can someone with powers beyond my own tweet this? Thank you. » Posted By funksands On December 15, 2011 @ 10:56 pm βTwas The Newt Before Christmas β A Political Parody π That’s the one!!! Newt is very “frageeleh” LOL » Posted By funksands On December 13, 2011 @ 6:18 pm Ad, this was really funny. Thanks for the chuckles! Newt’s candidacy reminds me of the movie Christmas Story. The part I’m thinking of is when the dad finally gets the “award” delivered in this huge crate, everyone is excited to see what’s in it….then he pulls out the leg lamp. He’s thrilled, his wife is aghast. He proudly displays the monstrosity in the window of the house until one fateful day when his wife “accidentally” breaks it. Half of the GOP has rationalized themselves into loving the Gingrich candidacy, the other half are horrified and are trying to figure out how to “break” it. All of which makes me laugh just as much as your post did. π » Posted By funksands On December 13, 2011 @ 6:05 pm LIVE BLOG: GOP Debate in IA Tonight at 6:00pm PST Ron Paul is awesome because 50% of what he says is perfectly reasonable and the other 50% is CrazyTrain. You never know what you are gonna get. » Posted By funksands On December 10, 2011 @ 8:24 pm Every time I watch a GOP debate I think of this song. You’ll recognize some early Michelle Bachmann and Ron Paul work in the beginning.[img]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fi4K9Cus0_g&feature=related[/img] » Posted By funksands On December 10, 2011 @ 8:21 pm Ron Paul 2012!![img]http://images.wikia.com/batman/images/4/44/Two-Face.JPG[/img] » Posted By funksands On December 10, 2011 @ 8:15 pm » Posted By funksands On December 10, 2011 @ 8:14 pmComments Posted By funksands
