Winstonm Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 :P Who is John Galt? I would say, a fictional character, but then I would probably be accused of circular reasoning. :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winstonm Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Glenn Greenwald hits a homerun with his article about Frank VanderSloot, an Idaho billionaire who is the national finance co-chair of the Mitt Romney presidential campaign, and the intimidation practices his attorneys use to derail a free press.

But Mitt seems to like VanderSloot: Romney lavishly praised him this way: “Frank’s vision and sense of social responsibility is second to none and he never ceases to amaze me.”Still have to figure out how to vote here in Michigan on February 28.

Winstonm Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Thanks. But Mitt seems to like VanderSloot: All I know is that if I said this, Frank’s vision and sense of social responsibility is second to none and he never ceases to amaze me, it would not be confused with praise. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PassedOut Posted February 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Robo-calls aplenty in Michigan these days, mostly from the Romney campaign. Turns out that Mitt is really, really mad at Rick Santorum for his votes for earmarks and for raising the debt limit to avert a US default. I've been leaning toward voting for Romney to minimize the chances that a dangerous person would get the presidency. But Mitt is making that so very tough to do... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PassedOut Posted February 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Dangerous bad like English Bob or Little Bill Daggett,or dangerous whacko like Bachmann or Bachmann?Dangerous like Gingrich or Santorum. Now Romney has revived revived that old claim about Obama promising to hold unemployment below 8%: “Three years ago, a newly elected President Obama told America that if Congress approved his plan to borrow nearly a trillion dollars, he would hold unemployment below 8 percent.” — Mitt Romney, Feb. 4, 2012 We had dealt with claim more than a year ago but we unaware that it had slipped into the former Massachusetts governor’s talking points until loyal reader Chuck Smith sent us a homemade, five-minute You Tube video challenging Romney to a $10,000 bet to prove that Obama actually ever said this.$10,000? Wonder where that number came from? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe write in "You gotta be kidding". Might be a winner. I see that Santorum has now become The Great Christian Hope. . This has gone well beyond embarrassing.

I see that Santorum has now become The Great Christian Hope. . This has gone well beyond embarrassing.And today I read that a 2008 speech made my Santorum is coming back to haunt him, one in which he declared the U.S. at war against Satan. And here I thought WE were the Great Satan, and now I'm bumfuddled. Are they just plain Satan, while we are Great Satan, or are they infringing on our copyright? Should we sue? MikeH, do we have a case? Or is this hyperbole from Santorum the Singular? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winstonm Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 "We went into a recession in 2008. People forget why," Rick Santorum told an audience recently. "They thought it was a housing bubble. The housing bubble was caused because of a dramatic spike in energy prices that caused the housing bubble to burst ... People had to pay so much money to air condition and heat their homes or pay for gasoline that they couldn't pay their mortgage." I suppose by Santorum economics we should be in another recession right now because gas prices are at an all-time high. How could we possible be in a weak recovery, instead, Rick?

Winstonm Posted February 26, 2012 Report Share Posted February 26, 2012 "I don't believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute," Santorum, a devout Catholic, said in an interview from Michigan on ABC's "This Week." At long last, Santorum is talking some sense. Who cannot share the worldview of a Santorum theocracy? <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winstonm Posted February 26, 2012 Report Share Posted February 26, 2012 And, of course, who can forget Newt - other than the voters, that is... The former speaker also criticized President Barack Obama's decision to apologize for the burning of Qurans at a military base in Afghanistan....Gingrich said George Washington would not have apologized for the incident.... He then admitted to an affair he had in 1771 with Betsy Ross, but denied rumors this laison affected his position as lobbyist for the London Tea Company at Boston Commons Wharf and Seafood Tavern.
