John McCain Could Lose Senate Primary To Tea Party Supporter
Commented Nov 21, 2009 at 03:01:27 in Politics
“Never happen. He'll drop out for "his family" or to "smell the roses" or some other bs as soon as reliable polling data show his loss a statistical certainty. Can you imagine Johnny's family pondering the thought of more time with him? Oh mama ...”
Obama One Year Later: The Audacity of Winning vs. The Timidity of Governing
Commented Nov 03, 2009 at 13:08:50 in Politics
“I respectfully disagree, and I do so on the grounds that by not upholding the rule of law regarding obvious war crimes committed in our names, and taking a "look forward, not back" mindset (or excuse) to the rule of law, you have fostered the notion that we are indeed a nation of men and not laws.
That is indeed power without principle”

“John Turley nailed it early on: Power without Principle. That's truly what we have in Washington”

“I think it's the opposite: what we have in the WH is principle, principle that is very smartly (and without much noise) creating the means to have the power to really change things.”
Why Keep Geithner?
Commented Nov 02, 2009 at 11:48:18 in Business
“You ask an important question, but you have the wrong man. Mr Geithner is no longer at the wheel of some quasi-secret NY banking consortium, he's Secretary of the Treasury of the US.
He answers and briefs with Mr. Obama. That's the man whose name should be in your question”

“Anyone see the pattern yet? Fall short (badly) on campaign promises (toss constituents under the bus) and then give a "major speech."
This time next year people in these various groups will have quit listening, and the midterms - once again - will put more of the other crooks in House seats.
General Strike”

“Everyone is hung up on the political machinations and not enough on the details, or lack thereof, in the plan(s).
If the no one can give me a cogent answer on how we deal with the costs, then it's deja-vu all over again -- It's TARP part two. All the "trimming of the waste" and "cutting costs" is fine, but what is it that's cut and how much does each item save and how did you reach those numbers?
I've heard a few obvious ones tossed around (which leads you to the obvious question of why they aren't being cut NOW), but not enough for the high percentage of the total _estimated_ cost of this thing, and that's not including the public option.
The administration needs to get serious about this, and yesterday. No more biblical references and platitudes and rosy skies and belts and suspenders, just the facts”

Apple's Big Missed Opportunity?

“I think social networking is doing the ruling class a favor whether they know it or not. The less people assemble (you know, like, uh ... face time?) and do everything by tweet, twit, email, iphone and whatever else that requires you to use thumbs and homemade short-hand rather than actually converse with someone in person, the better positioned corptocracy is”

“No, not really a personal thing. I relocated 25+ years ago to L.A. from the east coast; one of the two I'm alluding to relocated also, and the other was never a close friend, just an acquaintance of circumstance. We hooked up over the net. We were friends long before any of us cared about politics one way or another; we were young, dumb and full of ... anyway, two out of three conservative -- I'm the lone liberal”

“You wouldn't think it possible, but you'd be amazed at the number of people, some you'd have no idea, that support this woman. I seriously doubt it's enough to get elected, but it's scary nonetheless.
Two old friends I've reunited with after 20+ years voted for McCain/Palin, and the reason in both cases was Palin. It's downright frightening what's happened to the collective reasoning of this nation. Needless to say I'm not in regular touch with either of them”

“One of these days, people -- like Palin's handlers -- are going to wake up to the fact that Reagan has been exposed as one of the worst presidents in our history, and that this meme stating otherwise only plays within the lowly 25% voting block (far to the right) that floats around the GOP like monkey stink. I'd bet that easily half of these people couldn't care less, don't know, and don't want to know from Reagan.
Any true admirer of Reagan (knows anything of the man, in that twisted GOP sense of idolization) is either dead, irrelevant, or not in Palin's corner. What she hopes to accomplish by parroting Snewt and the legacy of Ronnie is beyond most thinking people”
