We saw what happened to all the Reagan dems in the dem party, they left!! If any of the current crop are the real thing they will leave as well. No room for conservative thoughts in the rat party.
I doubt the liberal MSM reads us -- they're waaaaaaay to good for us. Remember the CBS president's "pajama" remark - that was flat out dismissive ... and telling. Fox might - and if they do, great. It would be a good story.
As I understand it, the Dems have party discipline and the Republicans don't -- I hear it's because the Dems rely much more on money from the party, while Republicans generally can raise their own. Rush had a bit on how Pelosi is likely going to assemble those who ran as conservatives and explain the facts of Dem life to them: vote with the party regardless of how you ran, or you'll never see another cent when you're up for reelection.
Pat, I think you ought to run against Castle in the primary. I really do, and think you could trounce him, too!
Corn is worthless and impossible to watch for more than five minutes.
*****
LOL! Time is relative and five minutes can be an eternity sometimes!
What he said. I didn't hear about this also.
Thanks for the explanation. I just "assumed" someone with a touchy-feely attitude had gotten a bit peeved for "not" being awarded a ribbon.
:)
I don't know if you ever saw this from Ron Dreher:
In 1994, I was living on Capitol Hill in a group house with four others, all of whom worked in politics. When the Republicans took over the House that year, I taunted one of my housemates, who worked for a Democratic member, with chants of, “Speaker Gingrich! Speaker Gingrich!” He wasn’t fazed a bit. He told me calmly, “We know that Newt cheats on his wife. If he pushes things too far, we’ll make sure the media know it too.”As it turned out, Newt really was cheating on his wife. I wonder how many punches were pulled by Speaker Gingrich out of fear that the Democrats would drop the bomb on him.
Rats. I did not realize Negron lost! And yes, the next two years are going to be interesting as long as we can get the news in the papers and the word out. I hope Joe Negron releases numerous press releases.
If it were me, I would send out "Shadow Representative" releases (Along the lines of the UK Shadow Government) pointing out what I would have voted for, why and what it will mean to the voters in FL. Negron needs to respond to every vote and every statement. If the press won't print them, put them all on his website at minimum. To be honest, Negron could also come out with mid-term TV spots asking his opponent to do what he promised and stop playing politics.
I have been listening to Dr. Coburn's book. He is no fan of Newt.
Corection to post #431: Sept. '07 at the earliest...
It was for me. Had I not been fixing food for the mutts I would have changed it much earlier.
That is such a great point!
Even the 'fair and balanced' Fox News spends much of its broadcasts simply repeating biased reports from the AP, MS-DNC, ABC etc -- and then responding.
But as a result, Fox STILL ends up spreading bogus news just by repeating stuff.
I heard that too. No problem, your mistake is minuscule compared to the ones I've made here.
And this would be a bad thing how...?
If (and it's a big "if") some (or all) of these folks really meant what they said this next two years could be REAL intersting.
Hey, I can dream, can't I? We are currently in what is referred to in quantum physics as a "Quantum indeterminate state" where we don't know and can't know what the outcome will be. Events have to transpire to "collapse the state vector" and show us what is really real and what is mere possibility. Right now there are lots of possibilities, most of which have a very low probability of becoming reality, but they are possible, never the less.
