Well, it’s like this. PUBs shift leftward to the center; then the RATs shift further to the left, causing PUBs to again shift leftward. Repeat enough times and tou have the situation we have today. Most, if not all, RATs today would have been locked up by Wilson and FDR. The “eatablishment” today would have been RATs under the same Presidents.
We are two nations - sane and insane. We have two political parties - Communist and Liberal. We have two legl systems - Constitutional law and anarchy.
Heckuva endorsement right there. Makes me want to go right out and vote!
I read some favorable articles about Daniels in the conservative press and thought he might be a good candidate for the White House. But after reading in this article that Ruckelshaus and Lugar are advising him, I'm crossing him off.
Mitch daniels has an arrest record so this will disqualify him automatcally. Mitt romneys romneyCare will be a liability for running for president. now that ObamCare went into effect and Obama stated he took what Romney did for Mass. for all of the USA. Newt Gingrich had a problem with marital fidelity he had an affair while his first wife was suffering from Cancer. These three will drop out if that already have. republicans need someone whom has the scruples and no skeletons in the closet when going up aganst obama. whom in the republican establishment is an outsider and has no strikes against him.
There’s plenty of other negatives, as well. Mitch and Chris Christie have been getting a lot of press for controlling budgets, but neither of them is a real conservative.
Think a dumbell graph on the political spectrumnot the usual bell curve. We have a bulge on the Liberal left, and one on the Conservative right, with very little in the middle anymore.
On the Internet, sure. But that's not the real world. The people who go to protests one way or the other aren't a large percentage of the population.
"Polarization" means people get fed up with one extreme or the other and vote accordingly, not that they permanently enroll on one extreme against the other.
If the whole country really were divided into two equal and hostile blocs, we'd be in civil war by now. It's not and we aren't.
BTW, this guy has had an interesting career: "Priest and vicar; former Nixon aide and Nixon Foundation executive director." When he says "Nixon aide," though, he means he worked for Nixon after he left office, not that he was part of the Nixon administration. Apparently, Nixon maintained his own "shadow cabinet" after he left office.
Indeed, Taylor worked for Nixon during his post-presidential years.
ahhh...Diocletian is like Bawney Fwank eh?
...time to cross the Rubicon and fix America.
Really? I mention fruit growing in a garden and you think of homosexuality? I think you may have a problem.
I can’t take a hell of a lot more strain on mine either LOL.
Then we can really stick a fork in our country.
For starters, the Boy Scouts will be finished.
NO....I think of Bawney Fwank...
actually I do not care who sleeps with who(adults, that is)...as long as bone smugglers are not teaching kids....getting married....or doing dirty in public.
