Note that supposed Lincoln quote is not a good omen.What an idiot he is. WHY should they vote for it if “they are not bound to win?”

I turned it to catch a bit of the O when he began with the sob story. Geez, it went for, what, TEN minutes?

Missed it - can you inform me of substance generally ???

Also, did it begin with:

"I was born a poor black child in Kenya ..." [paraphrasing Steve Martin's "I was born a poor black child in the South" bit from "The Jerk"].

I love how Jared Polis is talking tax law...WTF do most of these guys even KNOW about tax law? They haven’t run businesses (for the most part), aren’t medical professionals, nor accountants...

sigh...I’ll watch the snow now.

I voted against both of those idiots for years and moved across the border. Got to vote for Tancredo once and then Beauprez a couple of times before I got to vote against an idiot again.

Polis is a rare breed. He ran a greeting card business. Haha. (Remind me to never buy a Blue Mountain Arts card ever again.)

From Jared's bio:

Jared was still in college when he co-founded his first company, American Information Systems, an internet access, web hosting and application service provider. Growing up in the family’s Boulder-based greeting card and publishing business, Blue Mountain Arts, he succeeded his grandmother as sales manager in 1996. Jared caught the attention of the e-business world by co-founding bluemountainarts.com, an online greeting card website which he sold to Excite@Home three years later. In 1998, he launched a web company to sell flowers direct from growers to consumers (ProFlowers.com) that has expanded to become Provide Commerce, Inc. (PRVD), one of the fastest-growing and most successful online start-ups; Provide Commerce was acquired by Liberty Media Corporation in 2006.

I was aware of that about Polis. I researched him once for Atlas. I suppose I need to start looking into spending again, but darn it...never seems to matter. They can do anything they want to. Anything.

Remember this one: How do you know when a politician is lying? - when his mouth moves.

How do you know when Obama is lying? - when you see him...

There is another post at Hillbuzz about strategy. Very interesting. Worth the read.

What is so difficult about saying NO...that’s it..NOT THIS BILL, NOT NOW, NOT EVER. Who in their right mind takes that kind of treatment? What part of my NO don’t you get???

No way I’m paying my kids’ insurance until they’re all 26. It ain’t gonna happen.

Sorry, Jenny...you'll just have to pay a hefty fine or go to jail if you don't.

Democrats are a blight on this Nation. Every single one of them!
