Both of you are right.

Ugly, mean and small, poor excuses for men.

No sarcasm. It has been a long two weeks plus two days. Not that I am counting. I remember when the summer games were 10 days long and that goes to your observation of all those added sports. : )

What most people don't know that even if the IOUs (non-market interest bearing T-bills) represented real money, SS would still be unsustainable. We don't have enough workers to support the system. By 2030 we will have only two workers to support every retiree and one in five Americans will be 65 or older. SS is a Ponzi scheme.

It is my understanding that his real name was A$$elrod and he changed it to Axelrod.

Two things:

1) Would like to see alot more of Lowry - he is effective at handling the TV show format.

2) RR needs to spend a massive amount of money NOW in all of the battleground states to combat the lying media and Obama campaign regarding Medicare. Timing is everything - they cannot allow the dems to frame the debate. Go on offense now with everything you’ve got.

Thanks fish...glad I’m still here too. Surprised and relieved.

I agree we’ve got to keep getting the message out about what the plan really does versus what the propaganda is.

But I’m afraid it won’t get out as effectively as it should since our own side seems to be lining up to toss Ryan under the bus first.

Gregory was on one of the Olympics shows whining hysterically about how nasty the Presidential campaign was and how nice the Olympics were in comparison.

The stench of hypocrisy wafting off Gregory, one of the nastiest, shrillest partisan hacks in the media,whining about the “nasty Presidential campaign” was overwhelming.

The shows are booked early in the week so they were booked before the Ryan announcement. I suspect Ryan will be all over the place next week.

I was just reading a thread entitled, "Sarah Palin: We’ve got Paul Ryan’s back and will call out the media for their lies and distortions and there are now AnyBodyButRomney'ers on it calling her a RINO or that she doesn't REALLY mean it, etc, and how they're STILL not going to violate their principles by voting for Myth... Etc, Etc...

So you know what? So what and too bad!

I'm through arguing with people like that. They are the fringe.

I mean really, what's the point? I doubt any of our arguing is going to change them. In fact, I think they like being obtuse and stubborn about it, in some kind of holier than thou, bizarre victimhood. They see themselves as the TRUE remaining conservatives, beleagured by turncoat pragmatics like us who will vote Republican this Fall, as while we're morphed into Bots to the same man we voted against in the primaries, THEY'VE remained pure and noble, still loyal to the Grand Cause.

Some of them are probably Obama campaign operatives, or at least posers from Huff Post, Daily Kos and DU. Which is it? It's getting really hard to tell!

But as Donald Rumsfeld once famously said, "You go to war with the army you've got, not the army you wish you had!"

Romney /Ryan - whether we like it or not - is the army we've got and wishing for something more personally acceptable to many if not most here won't make it otherwise.

That needs to be repeated often and loud. Too many people are forgetting this fact. God forbid they were leading us in battle.

For what it’s worth, I think this situation is why GW Bush and others supported expanding guest worker programs as well as trying to legitimize the illegal aliens already hear. More workers on the rolls means more taxes to postpone the problem.

I believe people like this are from the left trying to depress the vote this year. They want supporters to agree to not vote.

Real conservatives know better. Getting rid of 0bama is the one and only answer to stopping an out of control government that has been moving us to the left.

Yes, it’s funny how Dr. Vecchio actually read the bill, can explain exactly what’s in it in 7 short youtube videos, and yet the Democrats who voted for the bill claim how great it is. Next Secretary of HHS?

Contrast Vecchio's to-the-point understanding to that of Conyers and Pelosi.

If that was their rationale, then they were totally insane and should have been institutionalized. 57% of immigrants are on welfare. 23 million Americans are looking for full time employment yet we issue over 100,000 labor permits to legal foreign workers--permanent immigrants and guest workers--on temporary visas A MONTH RIGHT NOW despite the 8.3% unemployment rate.

Our immigration policy bears no relevance to our job requirements. Take a look at the graph below and tell me why we brought in 13.9 million new immigrants during the decade ending in 2010 and experienced a loss of 400,000 jobs during that decade? And to make matters worse, we bring in 1.2 million permanent immigrants annually with 25% of the adults lacking even a high school degree.

The fact is that immigrants contribute less in taxes than they benefit from government services. George W. Bush was the worst President we have had on immigration until Obama. Bush and Rove should be in jail for what their actions have done to this country.

Seems like the Dems. want to step out of the box and scare everyone about Ryan now, before people start falling in love with him. Fear is the weapon. Three more months of fear is going to lead to more stress and less paying attention to the ads.
