Yep. I usually read late Friday evening or first thing Saturday morning.

They may be fightin’ words, but they won’t be passed by this Congress or many more to follow.

[Excellence]

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that of all the people who replied to my post, you are the only person who actually read Robert Spencer's article. Grover Norquist is a dangerous man, and we do not need him to state the obvious about taxes. But the media puts him up for the simple reason that he does keep the Republican’s over a barrel when it comes to the opposition to Islam that he so wants to neutralize.

[who knows what evil?]

A new party has to be established, the Tea Party.

Long overdue, although the Constitution Party already has a platform most here would agree with.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

Grover did great with that idiot Kramer..just slammed him!
BTW, great post.

[9YearLurker]

More like, unless you’re an Islamist.

(But this waffling out of a no-tax pledge is despicable.)

[kabar]

Is that a different one than the one I linked to?

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

THAT was AWESOME!!!

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

Grover is the only one ABLE TO ARTICULATE THESE FINANCIAL ISSUES better than anyone to the AVERAGE CITIZEN....LOVE HIM!

[Steven Tyler]

Put the Progressives on a leash, a prepaid credit card to match Clinton era spending levels. Then, let the progs figure out how to spend that block of money

[maica]

Can we do it..knowing how stupid the masses are? And how do you deal with the lies and the media backing those lies.

#####

I don’t think we can do it. We are entering an age as unpredictable as what our great-grandparents experienced when the automobile and the radio and the telephone, etc changed the world.

Every child today has instant access to liberal lies, and they sound so sweet and normal to them. The messages they absorb come from the leftists who have positioned themselves in places of ‘education’ and ‘entertainment’ where the message of Big Benevolent Government is constant, and the concepts of Liberty and Personal Responsibility are counter to the ‘good of the whole.’

Republicans in Congress are now in the position of General Washington and the Continental Army as they were retreating from the British in December 1776.

Washington did not quit, but instead convinced his troops to go back across the Delaware River - in a snow storm - and attack the Hessian troops at Trenton, NJ.

I see our only hope for the future is a total last ditch stand by our House of Representatives this month - and I plan to phone as many of their offices as I can to leave this exact message!

[chiller]

"Boehner: We are going to solve America's debt problem. == hmmmmmmmm "

Just saw that segment and my reaction is the same as yours. Boehner sounded pretty damn serious and left the impression there will be no deal.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

I am going to read Spencer’s article, so I can get the full pic on Grover.thanks.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

Excellant post.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

YIPES!
I never knew that about Grover....yeesh. I am so over him now. Just call me naive.ha. and I thought I was educated about the Jhihadi stuff..duh.
thanks again for your post.

Thanks God we have Freeper!!!!

[rodguy911]

I'm not up on who Grover really is.YOUrlink was very revealingI just dontknow if its 99% accurate or 29%. there are several others here onFR who stay up on allthis kind of info.

My guess is if a LucyT or Mesta Machine were asked the skinny on Grover they would have far better answers than I.

[rodguy911]

Thanks, ths has been a truly bizarro year in trying to figure out who the players are and are not.

[rodguy911]

Grover certainly took our side against DNC Dave there is no question.

On Meet The Press, Claire Macaskill was pushing hard about some $23 Billion (Bilion with a B) program cut. Too bad the host does not realize that the annual deficit is 1,000 Billion per year. (Yes, I know annual means per year, but I don't know if DNC Dave does).

There is no serious attempt to control spending; Barry Obama, Harry Ried and Nancy Pelosi are running amuck with the national checkbook and there is no attempt to stop them. That's why Barry needs a permanent executive power to raise the debt ceiling, because the dials are spinning so fast even the big spenders in DC can't keep up with it.
