  1. That's ok, we all sometimes make silly mistakes. Well, Pelosi is in a district where she'll never lose and Reid, well.... he went up against Sharon Angle. So there's that. I do keep up with a lot, and I do have that opinion...So..... yeah
  2. Yes I do know of the bridge...Yes, I have paid attention to what she has done, I keep up with all spectrum of politics more so than anyone I know. And the fact that you don't understand why she is rightfully ridiculed, is...... Not surprising.
  3. Yeah, that should go over well with the media. Seriously, these guys suck at damage control.
  4. huh, so since the media and I both use a commonly used term, one that I've been saying for years, that MUST mean that I copied it from them. Got it! And are you suggesting that I ONLY single out tea partiers as "fringe" ? Are you serious? Your unwavering defense of anyone associated with the tea party blinds you. Anyway, here is a good look from Sean Trende, who I would consider one of the best conservative polling analysts in the business, regarding Bachmann. Pretty much what I thought, and I just read this now before I made any of my comments.

  5. Seriously, you take offense to any criticism lobbed at any tea party member. If someone does, then clearly they must be copying it from the media. Hate to break it to you, but the only copy/paste element here is your standard right-wing defense of tea party members. Why couldn't Alan West win in a district that tilted to the right? Why did Bachmann win by less than .5% in a district she should easily win by 8-10%.... These individuals are divisive and their comments many times are simply outrageous and easily mocked, and they hurt the conservative brand to anyone who votes that isn't a hard core right winger. They aren't palatable candidates.... For once, step outside of your bubble and attempt to rationalize things from a different perspective. Don't get so defensive. In regards to Alan West and Bachmann's not making bombastic comments... Seriously? You don't believe that? Do you really want me to bring up some of their quotes? In regards to Cruz......he's an intelligent guy, communicates extremely well, but takes some positions that I'm completely against, and I'm not too fond of him... If there is anyone in the GOP who will do worse with Latinos than what we saw with Romney, it probably would be Cruz.... But hey who cares? What Latino's think are unimportant to you.
  6. Ron Fornier is a quality journalist.
  7. No doubt, but make no mistake, she's a grade A bafoon.
  8. You don't understand why? Really?
  9. It appears the more bombastic fringe elements of the GOP have lost clout over the past few years. Palin, West and Bachmann are all out. This is a good thing for the Conservative movement, the less you see these folks out as the face of the GOP, the better chances you have to win national races and implement your agenda.
  10. For starters he should have never of followed the kid after he was told not to. Having said that, that still isn't a crime and it appears from the evidence I've seen that he is most likely innocent, specially against 2nd degree murder charges. But let's not pretend that Zimmerman doesn't have Trayvon's blood on his hands.
  11. I sometimes love the smell of "fowl".
  12. Dude, he's a Maverick!
  13. No person in their right mind agrees with you.
  14. You are correct. You hate to do it to the guy, but if you are the Bills, you play hardball...Set a FAIR (which is top safety pay), reasonable ceiling to what you will pay the guy and stick to it. Honestly, relative to Goldston, $9M seems like a "fair" offer for Byrd. However, considering the Bills have all the leverage, offer him somewhere in the ballpark of 5 year 43M with 24M guaranteed and make him the top paid safety in the league... Byrd and Eugene come away with the contract for a safety and the Bills get a relatively good deal as well.
  15. Two of the biggest military hawks seem to approve of her.
  16. Obama administration fought to keep the Rosen warrant a secret. ruh oh
  17. That would make a little more sense.
  18. I don't see it playing out that way... at all
  19. They must feel as if they can use this to their advantage, if they didn't then why do it? Specially knowing how politically minded and adept that they are. Let's face it, they relish Politics and they are damn good at it. Having said that, the political landscape for them has structurally changed and the press will view them with more skepticism than they previously have.
  20. Obama and his administration understands this... It isn't as if they are oblivious to the chances of her getting confirmed. My hunch tells me that they believe they can goad the Republicans to "overreach" by looking overtly partisan, and that they will try to win political points with this baiting tactic. Either that, or that Hillary Clinton grew fond of her and appealed to Obama for her to get promoted.
  21. I didn't catch that. So in other words, if you decide to off yourself it's not accepted, but if you decide for someone to terminate your life it's ok. Got it
  22. In any case.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h18oaE9uk34 and check these headlines: Cuomo beats weiner then goes limp from the Post and Cuomo Spanks Weiner from the NY daily news
  23. Figures, it went right over your head. Like usual
  24. I don't know what Bills games people have been watching, but to imply that Byrd isn't a top 5 safety or that he is only noticeable when making picks is absurd. First off, making picks is a huge part of being a safety. The guy also recovers and creates fumbles. In other words, he's a playmaker, and playmakers come at a premium, much more so than your run of the mill high tackling/ low turnover creating safeties. Not to mention that Byrd is constantly making solid tackles. The guy is also at the very least an above average tackling safety. When you combine all these facets of the game that he has in his repertoire, this makes him an All-Pro player that deserves top pay, which in my estimations is $9M a year.
  25. I think you are missing the point. I'm not personally judging who is more in the right, I am making more of an argument of what is and isn't socially acceptable. Sanford did what many have done, which is he simply cheated. Weiner texted photos of pee pee to unknown women. That's just viewed as creepy. The general public is more sympathetic with your run of the mill infidelity as opposed to a dude that texts photos of his schlong to unknown women half his age. If you don't recognize the difference, then I don't know what to tell ya. In any case, I'm pretty certain my view is more in line with what most people think.
