I LIKED DREAMBOAT ANNIE SO MUCH MORE WHEN SHE MADE SENSE
JIM MORAN:ALLEN WEST NOT REPRESENTATIVE OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN COMMUNITY
You prefer the ignorant type that will vote for anybody with a D after their name because that’s who gives them other peoples’ money.
Hey,Jim;go back to Baghdad and play kissy face with your friend Saddam?Oh,wait–warriors like Col. West nailed his ass.Sorry about that. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/escalation-media-criticism-against-rep-west-continues/
THE MISTAKE WAS AMERICANS GOT KILLED AND YOU GOT CAUGHT
I am always glad to see people sharing their thoughts here.Hopefully it will get more lurkers to get off the bench and get in the game.
I promise I will try not to be whiny,grumpy,cynical,depressing or bitchy….no guarantees
OK,CHRISSY:HERE’S THE STORY
When I was about 23 my sister and her roommate(cute,as I recall)decided to have a Halloween party.The caveat was men had to be dressed as women and vice versa.Frankly,I never wanted my vice versa.I wanted to use one of my mom’s dresses(she was a big woman) but she talked me into putting on one of my sister’s dresses.She borrowed a wig from her neighbor and gave me one of her bras with the…uh… ‘foam rubber enhancements’.I think they were called “falsies.” I put on a pair of sis’ pantyhose,but they only came up to the top of my thighs so I had to keep reaching down to yank them up.Why did people give me funny looks when I did that?I was driving a 1971 Barracuda with vinyl seats and tried driving without sitting all the way down because they were cold as hell.
There I was,smoking cigars and shooting pool trying to look as macho as possible under the circumstances.It’s really a challenge to play nineball with foam rubber missiles always in your way.Anyway,sis’ neighbor staggers in not in costume,and starts watching me.As my grandma would put it,he was so drunk he didn’t know if he was afoot or horseback.Finally,he came over and said, ‘who are you,sweetheart?’
I told him I was twice the man he’ll ever be and more woman than he’ll ever get.I decided it would be better to leave the party early than to have this creep wake up the next morning thinking a girl beat his ass.Although I still appreciate a beautiful woman in heels,that was my first and only foray into the twisted world of crossdressing.That’s it.True story.
FIRST,THEY CAME FOR THE CATHOLICS
There was a discussion on the radio this morning about Bozo cutting off Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements to non-compliant Catholic hospitals.Judging from the initial outrage Barky may have bitten off more than he can chew.
It inspired the following exchange with my brother, who is one of the most intelligent and savvy individuals I know.
BRO’S REPLY: What is the battle about? Who is the enemy? At my age, I give less credence to one’s public statements and more to those tawdry realities which so often dictate our behavior.
In this case, it appears that the real issue is ego. Fine. Color me naive. But consider a few facts.
Newt is poorly disciplined. I remember well his leadership. And I see those same flaws now.
Remember, I was in his corner as late as last week. My son-in-law is still. But it appears that Newt believes this debate is about him. It isn’t. It’s about Obama.
If Newt is defeated by Romney, how will he act? Romney worked for the party. I fear Newt will work for … Newt. Given his history, (I too can claim the title ‘historian’) it isn’t clear that he will put party above his own desires.
Goodness knows, looking at his marital difficulties, the man has a track record.
People are upset about Romney’s ‘evolution’ to Conservative principles over these past few years. And I can understand their apprehension. But would the Gingrich backers in the audience tell me how you criticize the one man, all the while ignoring the former Speaker’s personal behavior over that same time period? If Newt can cheat on his 2nd wife, if anyone can justify cheating on his mate, and then find God at age 68, why can’t Romney abandon some of his earlier positions and find a philosophy closer to ours?
As Ms. Coulter noted, Romney’s evolution should be seen as a victory for our side. But his opponents are going to find ways to weaken his position. Why? Purity? Or to quote the Third Mate from THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER. “Or was it something else? Ego, perhaps?”
The candidates all appear to agree that this is a critical election. – Greece is broke, Italy, Spain and Ireland are ready to go. – While our military must wear white gloves while handling the Koran, the Catholic church is under attack. – The tax bill is 95% of GDP and rising. Nearly 50% of the nation does not pay federal taxes.
The list of disasters, starting with Holder, Geithner, and Biden grows. The metaphorical Titanic is taking on water. And we are running around the deck, checking the colors on the life boats.
Is this outrage truly about Conservative principles? Or is it about our egos?
MY RESPONSE: You can never lose quoting Red October to me 🙂
I appreciate your input very much. I was too busy being sick and raising kids to pay attention to the world before my first kid went to war. And I pretty much slept through American History in high school.
I am good friends with a lifelong Bay Stater who did pay attention. She thinks Romney is our best choice. And when I read Coulter, she makes me agree.
Then I listen to videos and debates, read other pundits, and I find myself liking Santorum or Gingrich best.
Thank goodness, there’s one candidate I can ignore. Ron Paul’s comments about foreign policy just left me cold.
When the GOP band of brothers (and sister) was huge, the MSM yammered about how weak it was.
Yet what I am struggling with now is how strong it is.
One of the PoliNators said, “I will probably be waffling when I step into the voting booth.”
I’m glad the New York primary isn’t any time real soon!
Chrissy:I was going to comment on your post about what would make a great president yesterday but at the time I was seething with such anger I could not control my motor skills.I was watching The Five on FNC as I usually do,just to check out the high heels Kimberley Guilfoile was wearing.(I’m a pig,sue me.)
That fat turd Bob Beckel was wailing about Allen West’s speech at the Lincoln Day dinner. As I was researching today’s thread I came across this article about it.There’s a video of the exchange between turd-boy and Greg Gutfeld.You can figure out what set me off.
DIANE SAWYER QUIZZES DEAR READER ON THE SUPER BOWL AND SINGING
This is a preview of the much-anticipated presidential debates.The outcome is predetermined.
CAMP MITTENS DUPLICITY ON ALLEN WEST WORSE THAN A CONSPIRACY–IT’S A HABIT
I don’t remember when I’ve been so outraged,so disgusted at the GOP.Even though they picked up 2 congressional seats,they redistricted West out to make other republican and democrat seats safer.The Tea Party electees were looked at as interlopers when they came to Wahington.Idealogues are not welcome in the DC den of perdition where everybody gets rich and republicans know their place.
The democrats in Ill-Annoy sure weren’t shy about pushing republican districts together where we face losing some good people.My congressman,Don Manzullo, is a ten-termer who has always stuck with conservatism.Now he’s forced to run against Adam Kinzinger,an Iraq veteran and rising GOP star.We have a difficult choice to make.The game is rigged and I resent it.
PHILLY THUGS ATTACK TAXI,PULL PASSENGER OUT AND PUMMEL HIM BECAUSE HE’S WHITE
This shit is hardly worth mentioning anymore.If you are unarmed,you can be a victim of this heathenous rabble.They think it’s funny to beat up whitey.

SORRY I’M IN A REALLY DARK MOOD TODAY–MAYBE TOMORROW
I have to admit there was a moment in the debate last Thursday, January 26th in Jacksonville, FL that really came out of left field for me. I honestly didn’t see it coming, but why shouldn’t I have? It seems so obvious after the fact, with the debate being in Florida and all. That moment came when Newt Gingrich brought up the idea of building a colony on the moon. Of course, it was quickly mocked by Mitt Romney as absolutely ridiculous in a time when the economy is in such bad shape. Romney also chided Gingrich, suggesting that he was playing the politician by going from place to place offering what each locale wanted.
For anyone just entering the campaign, perhaps viewers watching their first debate, this entire exchange looked like a huge victory for Mitt Romney and a crushing defeat for Newt Gingrich. But, as we all know, things in politics are not always as they seem. Was Newt really just pandering to the Florida crowd? His debate responses from December 10th in Iowa would suggest otherwise. In fact, video footage from that debate shows him giving virtually the same answers.
But what about the idea that he’d be crazy to suggest going to the moon while America (and the rest of the world) is on the verge of economic collapse? If you listen closely to Newt’s entire debate response, he wasn’t actually suggesting that the government colonize the moon, but rather that the private sector be encouraged and empowered to do so. In fact, if he could have given the response he wanted to give, I’m quite certain it would resemble this rather inspiring speech he had given in Cocoa, FL just one day prior.
With all that being said, isn’t it a bit “crazy” in this day and age to be talking about going to the moon? It’s like some pipe dream of days long past. But as Newt describes in Cocoa, it’s dreams like these that have inspired and continue to expire our next generation of young scientists all around the world. The irony in all of this is that on the day before the Jacksonville debate, January 25th, this YouTube video went viral.
It seems that two Canadian high school students decided to launch the first Lego man into space. They videotaped this project to share with the rest of the world, because young people really do still have dreams…and one of them is to go into space. It’s one thing to be realistic and practical, to live within our means, but it something else entirely to lack any sort of vision for the future. I don’t want to be part of the crowd that stands around chanting, “Yes we can!” I want to be part of the ones that make it happen!
If this post seems meandering,disjointed and totally incoherent–it’s about normal
THE ‘TAKE CARE OF ME’ SOCIETY IS WRECKING THE USA
I’ve been meaning to write about this,so I’ll take the opportunity.
It seems there will never be another ‘greatest generation’ that our parents and grandparents were a part of.The reasons are myriad.Today’s generation lacks the moral core founded in God and family which motivated them to sacrifice for the common cause.A will to win,as it were.Enduring personal hardship to see those fighting to keep us free had everything they needed.
Today’s culture is rooted in having things done for them and holding no values other than taking the easy road.I can think of no scenario where a majority of Americans would accept even a minimum of deprivation for any reason,even their own security.Look at the unions.They would rather the states go bankrupt or see their fellow workers thrown out of work rather than compromise their pay increases,retirement and generous medical plans.
You see multiple generations of families who live on the government dole and make no attempt to fend for themselves.Asking them to pick up trash or mow some grass and they feel like you’re trying to make ‘slaves’ out of them.Newt suggested giving some kids jobs as janitors to earn their own money and look at the hell he caught.Our foreign enemies know they don’t need to attack us physically.Our national will has atrophied and without strong leadership we will continue to slouch toward Gomorrah.
ROMNEY SPOKESMAN BEHIND EFFORT TO REDISTRICT ALLEN WEST OUT OF EXISTENCE
If the GOP tries to get rid of one of the few real men we have,there will be absolute hell to pay.
I guarantee it!
IT STARTED AS TWO GUYS HAVING A CONVERSATION
IF YOU WANT TO GET GOOSFLESH,OPEN THIS THREAD!
Two guys were discussing how sad it was that there were no “Welcome Home” parades for our Iraq veterans.
The word spread like wildfire and tens of thousands showed up along with hundreds of bands and floats.
Maybe the Obamas hate the military,but these patriots beg to differ.
