“Wall Street is resting easy. Back to business as usual. The insurance industry is grinning like the Cheshire Cat. Point to some evidence that the gravy train is pulling into the station.
Criticizing Obama is "buying the Republican hype"? Hardly. My criticisms are VERY different from the the criticisms of the Lunatic Right. If that confuses you, if you can't work it out, just keep blindly, loyally, dutifully cheering Obama.”

“She is a creature of Richard Nixon.

That is all that anybody needs to know about her.”

“Obviously you two know nothing about hunting or why people do it.
For some, you may be correct in your assumption.
but for most, it's about knowing where your meat comes from...it's an abattoir...knowing that you have taken an animals life in order to feed your family is I guess kind of thrill...it's also good for the environment as well...since we've killed off their natural predators, they've become very overpopulated....

Knowing that the meat is clean...no drugs, hormones, antibiotics or any of the garbage they pump into factory farmed meat...knowing that it's pure, healthy, AND delicious is really quite a satisfying thing.

I only hunt for what I need...I don't trophy hunt, and I don't sportfish...
I do realize, that humans are predators...we have stereoscopic vision, teeth that can process the flesh of dead animals.
We're carnivores by our very genetics...

Half my freezer is filled with venison and wild boar...and wild boar is another topic altogether...
once you eat fresh wild boar sausage, you'll never eat farm raised pork again...”

“"Why can't "hunters" just admit the thrill they get from killing?"

Well, it's in their genes, just like it's in a lion's genes. They just don't want to admit it.

I don't get that thrill. That's why I'd rather not see my prey killed. I'd rather leave it to others who do get that thrill. I know that some would consider that hypocritical, and it could very well be, but at least I admit it. That's one of the differences between a Liberal and a Conservative.”

“wow, my wife just asked the same question”

“And if you actually fell for Barack Obama's impersonation of a liberal progressive Democrat then you were dreaming.

And if you think for a second that Obama is going to keep his word after watching him continue the Bush presidency, you're still dreaming.

Keep the change, it's just Bush lite.”

“I see the "underlying" point. What I am saying, and what you don't seem to understand, is that this ad simply does not work. The ad is supposed to be selling the idea that competition is good. What the ad is actually selling is something quite different. Now, the Right has come out with a clear message. "You don't want the government between you and your doctor." This is clear. How does MoveOn counter? With a metaphor that in no way includes you and me. What exactly is MY stake in this race? Why should I care if fat insurance companies are running? In what way does this make competition good for me? It may make you feel good to watch it, but it does nothing for the cause. But it is slightly better than the MoveOn ad that equated Bush to Santa Claus.”

“Here's another way to put it. The right has offered up the image of "the government getting between you and your doctor." This is a clear image. It makes it clear what is at stake to me. I close my eyes, and I can picture this. So how does MoveOn respond? "competition is good." For whom? According to the commercial, it's good for the insurance companies. I close my eyes and I get a foggy image of some lala race somewhere. Guess who's not in the image? Me. You. The people. Liberals have to stop being clever and start being smart in their messages.”

“I UNDERSTAND what they are trying to sell. I'm just explaining to you that they are failing to sell it. Whoever approved this ad should be fired.”

“He didn't search the house thoroughly in the first place before authorizing every resource available to him. That was just ONE major error on his behalf that started this whole snowball. If they would have properly investigated, this would have been the non-story it should have been.

Of course if a kid was really in danger, he should have authorized every resource available to help. But he and his department tripped all over themselves at every turn.”

“He made Barney Fife look like Elliot Ness.”

“Do you really need clarification?......Bill O'Reilly....puleeze!”

“In the sense that the incident reminded me how much my own personal politics conditions my view of non-political events. I don't like O'Reilly, his political views, or anyone who would discuss a possible meeting with him as something exceptional.”

“I Think he is presidential material. Democrats have some rising star.”

“2016? Ha ha!!! see the heads of wingnuts explode.”
