Yes, I concede, I exaggerate. But my point is essentially sound.
By the way, I thought Santorum did rather well.

The Quadfecta. [Change the e to u and that is what we are really getting.]
Another little tidbit I caught during the DNC dave/Santorum interview--DNC dave accused Republicans of equal guilt in no energy plan for the country and not helping to stop the drive towards $5.00 gas.AN obvisou lie/misrepresentation.
Santorum shouted back real quick
? that's wrong we vote for more drilling, "for" the pipeline for all the right moves its your side that does not.
Hearing the response DNC dave did what he has to do most times he is challenged:
HE CHANGED THE VENUE, WENT ON TO A NEW AREA FOR EXPLORATION!!
Just shows folks any time these bastards drivebys are challenged they fold like the cheap assed suits they truly are.
In response, the Speaker points out how weak Romney is.
He then gives erudite ideas.
The Speaker talks about the breadth of his support.
However, Wallace the trained-RomneyBOT
appears to ONLY be interested in Romney once again
as he begins this weeks Romney-talking-points
for FOX-Bain News.
As expected each week, Chris Wallace lies to the audience
purporting Romney is a "conservative".
[Like his support of anthropormorphic global warming
hoax two nights ago?]
Again, Wallace again "demands" Speaker Gingrich
remove himself from the race for his beloved Willard,
and deftly uses a video with his misstatements.
The Speaker responds with specific points exposing the bias
of the FOX video and partially correcting
the Pimp's nonsense.
In this round, Wallace simply cannot touch
anything the Speaker has said so in response,
Chris Wallace (is he really a sister wife of Romney?)
avoids every single issue which the knowledgeable
Mr. Gingrich says ... and switches to the topic of 'energy'.
Energy? The Speaker then responds with specific points to lower
energy to $2.50 or less.
Mr. Gingrich: We must "develop energy resources to
be independent of the Middle East".
Mr. Gingrich: "Dr. Chu wants us to pay European levels (for gasoline)".
Once again, the Wallace cannot touch anything
the Speaker has said, so once again in response,
Wallace begins a complicated segue, saying
something densely unclear about drilling.
The Speaker answers quantitatively again and with specifics.
Yet again, Wallace cannot touch, or respond to,
anything the Speaker has said as he knocks Wallace's
question 'out of the park', so yet again
Wallace segues to a new topic ... Afghanistan.
The Speaker explains the roles of US tolerance,
justice, and other issues that the media just will not touch.
Will Wallace respond this time? Nope.
Wallace again "reads" from his Romney playbook
as he avoids everything the Speaker has said for the n-th time.
The Speaker continues, and defends America and
demands an apology from Karzai to the American people.
Mr. Gingrinch says that it is time for Americans not to tolerate
this. He points out how Pakistan help hid Osama and then
went after those Pakis who leaked Osama's position to
America. Will Mr. Wallace respond finally like a
reporting anchor? Nope, the he ignores the matter and
goes back to the Romney playbook.
End of Round 1:
Mr. Gingrich - Score 1
FOX "News" - 0 - Biased as ever
I just love it when, as Wallace is teeing up his next question, you can see the corner’s of Newt’s mouth turn up just the tiniest little bit as he anticipates knocking the ball out of the park. I also really like it when Newt actually smiles that ‘mischievous schoolboy’ smile and you know he is going to decimate the questioner. Newt was terrific this morning. :-)
He's being grilled by the now smiling DNC dave who is determined to make the issue about contraception and why everything is not free for all instead of the big issues which McDonnell quickly points out are the ones we all know: taxes,debt etc.
Nice to see to see our side countering the lies of the DBM left. Now dnc dave characterizing McDonnell as "an extremist" since he won't talk about contraception---just too good!! Bob McDonnell--closing remarks
we've gone from hope and change to division and malaise
Just too good! this guy is a winner!!

Yes, I concede, I exaggerate. But my point is essentially sound.
By the way, I thought Santorum did rather well.
WallAss is dying to be a DBM journalist on a DBM net. He just can't quite get there yet.
That is their strategy, pretend it is a secular war when it is purely spiritual. Until we are ready to fight the real war we will always be losing the fake one.
We have to question the results and agenda of all science. Rush was talking about a doctor writing a book admitting cholesterol has no effect on heart disease and a low fat diet damages the circulation. Was this agenda driven science to damage the beef industry and literally killing people?
Pray for America
I forget to reset the wall clocks, and effectively missed most of the morning talkies.
Apparently, based on the number of commentaries in this thread this morning, either many others forgot to reset their clocks or the morning fair didn’t offer much worth commenting on.
Dr. Henry Morris laid out the case pretty well a few years ago...
Is Mitt too smart to show up or too dumb to show up.
Newt has a couple more chances and if it doesn’t happen in those southern states, he might pull out. He says he won’t but ....
The press would rather focus on small issues that are sexy and people can relate to.
The left knows this. Hence the fluke flap.
Morning AB! Forgot to spring forward. Santorum on MTP - asked about Gingrich staying in - Santorum says eventually it will work itself out. Santorum walking lightly around any calls for GIngrich to get out of the race. When asked about Romney - Santorum says the race is not a mathmetical formula (referring to the delegate count),...lots of dynamics involved. Brings up the fact that ROmney was instrumental in moving up dates of primary elections that were beneficial to his campaighn. Also brings up the fact that a lot of these delegates are uncommitted, the superdelegates.
Gregory brings up delegate map showing Rommey winning coasts and Santorum winning the heartland....Gregory asks how do you overcome the fact that Romney is winning big states needed in presidential election? Santorum points out Romney’s weaknesses in winning key states (like MI, OH) by much...his campaign (Santorum’s) has the grass roots momentum.
Gregory again asks Santorum about asking Newt to get out of the race.....Santorum responds he didn’t ask Gingrich to get in, he certainly won’t ask him to get out.
Gregory asks about economy - Santorum talks about jobs that can be created by building Keystone Pipeline, other places that obama continues to say no on drilling. Impact of energy alone is significant on economy....add on regulations, obama care,..... damage to economy can be lessened by immediately addressing these issues.
Gregory says it’s Repubs fault just like dem’s as far as energy costs. Santorum strongly disagrees. Talks about radical ideology of this administaraion that says we can drill in Brazil, but not in our own backyards.
Gregory asks about Santorum past record as Sen.... says weren’t your votes for “big govt”? Santorum says he never voted for increase in spending in any appropriations bill. Goes after Romney espcially over romneycare.
Gregory asks what is the issue that will hurt Romney’s campaign (guess, Gregory is trolling for opposition research for obama) Santorum says essentally romneycare = obamacare, also brings up climate change issues.
Gregory asks about influence of Santorum’s wife - santorum says his wife helps him keep things in perspective when it comes to what he says on the campaign trail.
No doubt,as well as its their meme, they created it,made it up out of thin air.If they don’t pursue it they know it will die and they will have to talk about the real issues that don’t work well for the dear leader.
The thread has been pulled??!!
If the economy adds about 208,000 jobs per month, which was the average monthly rate for the best year of job creation in the 2000s, then it will take until February 2020—8 years—to close the jobs gap. Given a more optimistic rate of 321,000 jobs per month, which was the average monthly rate for the best year of job creation in the 1990s, the economy will reach pre-recession employment levels by April 2016—not for another four years.
MTP - brings up story of 15 civilians killed in Afghanistan
McDonnell-(Gov, Virginia) it’s tragic, one incident like this affects the winning hearts and mind strategy. (I believe he has a daughter serving)
o’Malley - we look for steady calm leadershop in situations like this - obama has provided that calm steady leadership.
Gregory asks about unemployment numbers - - O’Mally says there is no important issue than unemployment - obama’s leadership has saved the day) foreclosures, car companies, jobs (Hallelujah and can I get an Amen?!)
MdDonnell - we’ve lost 864,000 jobs. We’ve added 5 Trillion to our budget and have an unemployment rate over 8%...not a good record. gas rates have doubled....can’t think of a single thing the administration has done (other than stimulus) to affect the economy. Romney is what we need!
Gregory asks about aboriton bill - McDonnell says it was one bill among thousands he signed/dealt with. Gregory asks were you wrong to sign this bill (regarding requiring ultrasounds).....McDonnell tries to explain this was about an informed consent requirement....lots of healthcare decisions require a consent.....really tries to avoid the focus on “social” issues.
Gregory still wants to talk about “war on women’s” issues, so he moves on to O’malley - O’Malley - says these cultural issues are sadly (I think he wiped away a tear or two /s), are crowding out the bigger issues involving our economy.
