Why on both counts?

1. Watching the debate last night I could never vote for him for Pres.

His slime was fun when pointed at the Dems. It gets more clarity when pointed at my own party. At one point it became clear he knew what he was saying was wrong or out of context and he had a smirk like he thought it was cool. It reminded me of many of the posts in here LOL. Granted his tactics and antics were not very productive back in the day but I was easily amused, less mature (remember that is relative LOL) and it didn't seem to matter.

2. This is deperessing.

Your next comment could sum up most of why it is depressing. "How will it affect you and yours? Despite whoever wins, the country will continue on it's gradual decline for the time being at least. You have no control over that."

I still have hope and want to vote for someone I actually like and have some faith in. It has been about a decade since I have done so.

^ Yes, you are a bully conehead. LOL

Fuzz, I can appreciate that explanation but I just find most cut 'n paste to be long, drawn-out bullshiite & I ignore them. Speaks droves to me about the poster when they toss what usually amounts to a another party's (usually subjective) point of view into the fray. Figures don't lie but liars figger.... HAHAHAHA

Yeah, and most of America drinks Bud Light, watches American Idol, and listens to Lady Ballgag so my faith in America and the way it "feels" is lost on me.

Their popularity is low but what do these morons do? Vote them back in or put someone that's lockstep with the last guy.

So what.

Who cares.

It doesn't change a damn thing.

You would've been better off just yelling "I love lamp!"...really.

Sorry...they can save time and energy by just putting Mittens and Neutered into the same noose and we hang them both at the same time facing each other.

Really.

There's NO difference between the 2.

They're all barking about how they're different but really...do you see Romney...the architect of Massachusetts doomed RomneyCare repealing ObamaCare? I sure as hell don't! He KNOWS that one piece of legislation is what's keeping the economic engine from revving up and peeling out because of the uncertainty associated with this bloated boat anchor entitlement.

Neutered...poor Neutered...he keeps on telling people he's a Neo Wilsonian...a FDR stooge...a Teddy disciple and Reagan's "braintrust"! He's a lying POS that wants back in at the taxpayer trough. He wants to waddle his huge carcas back into position and wants to trot out some of his failed ideology. He couldn't even manage to give the American populous the ONE thing it deserves from the carrion of K Street...TERM LIMITS!

Yet the stage has been set. The winner already decided. This is the best we get? Even on the Democrat side. NOBODY wanted to take a run at the Kenyan King? Nobody is better? He's it? We're doomed if this is the best we get. This is becoming a "Take Everything That Isn't Nailed Down" event as we're now close to 120% in debt to GDP. Tell me the nation that's come back from that? There isn't one and these are the clowns that we're going to entrust to solve the mess?

PUH-LEEZE!

Don't you see that the one part of that "contract" was Term Limits...they weren't going to deliver that. That ends the gravy train. It's like how they don't vote for their own raises...insanity that would protect us but we didn't get it...and we won't!

Hell, I didn't even go for the "low hanging fruit" and call him morally bankrupt or deathly afraid of contracting cancer or MS from his exes!

I find that his loose cannon persona is what makes him endearing to many of the party faithful who are not into party ring kissing.

It is what made him endearing to me when I was younger. But it seemed to be less transparant, or maybe I just beleived at the time the ends justifies the means and was hoodwinked into thinking he really beleived in what he was trying to accomplish. Now I think he will just say anything, has no real beleif and is sort of like the Rev Jim on steroids. Plus when he walks on the stage he sort of reminds me of burgess meridith as the penguin.

By the way..... the part that was really transparant was when he was attacking Mitt Romo's finances while realizing he had invested in the exact same things. When called out on it his look was priceless. A yea but so what look.

Talking about their wives gave a pretty clear impression about who he is on a personal level too. She may as well been wifebot 2000. It really messed with my estrogen levels.

I liked Ronnie's cloak and dagger approach and beleived he did so because he really had a beleif in something. I thought Newt was like that too. I was wrong about Newt.

I remember the Contract having huge ramifications on taxes, welfare, and other domestic policy in general. it was fundamentally responsible for electing a majority Republican Congress which put Slick Willy's administration on the defense. Gingrich and ****** Armey were in the forefront of this fight while the majority of today's Repubs chickened out including Mitch Daniels (counterpoint for Obama's state of the union speech) who was a lame staffer for the cowering ****** Lugar.

I commend Newt for that. He was rewarded by the Republican establishment with trumped up tax charges & replaced by the hapless and short-lived reign of Livingstone(sp?).

He's opinionated, a bit overbearing, and pampered but he's done much more good than bad.
I know the better of the two evils...

Things were simpler before Watergate- absolutes were more easily identifiable, black was black, etc. Now, there are shades of gray about almost everything. There are no truths anymore. I don't think America can handle the truth either (in my best Nicholson).

In all honesty I vacillate from Paul to Gingrich to Santorum to staying home... and I'm not the only one. That's not good.

Agreed blood but I honestly felt Newt was a firebrand zealot that actually beleived in what he was doing rather than just an oppertunist. I actually admire some of the Paulbots because they really beleive. I was a Newt/Nussle fan and beleived. I was wrong. I think some of the paulbots will find they are as well.

Newt never really did beleive. He has no integrity or compass moral or otherwise. He was about Newt. He could have been pushing the slapchop or gratey instead and he wouldn't have cared. The other thing that pisses me off is the rain of Republican establishment folks comming out of the woodwork now that seemed to know this all along and didn't say anything because it benefited them. Now it doesn't so they emerge. Shows that I wasn't paying attention to the man behind the curtain at the time.

My guy doesn't stand a chance but an effective change he would make. I really think he knows it and is stacking delegates for a run at the convention. I could be wrong but the more those 2 coiffed pampered pooches slug it out the more America is disgusted by the show. If they think for one second that they're going to garner the sacred Independent vote bloc they're SADLY mistaken. Both are unelectable in my eyes. Tarnished beyond compare with too much baggage tying them to Obama himself.

I hate cut 'n paste with a passion. Too dry & usually full of tangential, irrelevant info.
I've found it to be a tool for those who are either intellectually lazy or simply can't grasp and/or communicate their interpretation of the subject matter in a clear and succinct manner.

Can't you encapsulate, Fuzz?

Didn't it have enough pictures for you? or are you too "intellectually lazy" to understand what the article is saying and that it was posted in response to the challenges only raised by the the august protectors of the faith here when some perceived "liberal" issue of concern is brought up, to provide legally admissable evidence of wrong doing to support the post involved?

The whining about cut and pastes is selective here based on the viewpoint expressed in the cut and paste. Some people prefer to have the cut and paste in the post instead of having to paste the link into another browser window. Others such as yourself obviously prefer not to see the cut and paste content here, only the link, or want the poster to craft a summary post so they don't have to go to the "effort" of reading content amounting to about 2 or3 pages of a magazine article at most. That seems to be the real act of laziness.

If there's a way to put a hot link into a post, such that it allows the reader to more efficiently access the content of URL referenced in a post, then I'd be happy to stop cutting and pasting, but until then suck it up and scroll baby scroll.

What is comes down to is you think you saw smoke, therefore there must be a fire, therefore they are guilty as charged.

I can beat the market by 12% a year and nobody has presented any non-public information that was acted on. All I've seen is stuff anyone could have got from Jim Cramer.

We just don't like seeing other people win.
