| Is senator Graham calling it like it is? Posted: 11/4/2009 4:27:25 AM | The race for a US representative from a NY district is the race that really speaks to the issue in this post. There was a definitively profound break among the republican factions, with Sarah Palin campaigning for an right wing extremist that opposed the Republican candidate. In the end, the democratic candidate won the election.
The elections of governors, even though they may have an effect as the talkings heads in the media start spinning the results toward their positions, are definitely local and, at best, regional in their implications for the national political landscape. The people of those states will need to live with their decisions, especially if the new administrations were to assume a militant opposition, like South Carolina, to the federal government. I doubt that this will be the case.
There is a lesson for the Republican Party in this election, and it looks like senator Graham has a point. It will be interesting to see if the Republican Party will develop a political strategy or it will just continue bouncing like a football, with no definite direction. | |

| Is senator Graham calling it like it is? Posted: 11/4/2009 5:31:04 AM | You can think of it that way "if you wish" just like you might find a validation that the GOP is alive and well with a small victory.
It's however you wish to "read things" ~
Seniors voted and working folks didn't so working folks are lazy!
Is that was you suggested I said?
And then another "Liberal" label attack. ~
Is that the only word you know to describe your pain? "Liberal" What is a liberal to you? whatever someone told you they were?
<div class="quote"> You must be upset so you resort to attacking the old. Another liberal tactic ? I guess their are no liberal old people. That must mean you will be a conservative when you hit 65. When you get to 65 enjoy the right side
That it don't make any sense to you should be your first clue that you read it wrong?
You are entitle to be wrong. You should be use to it by now.
and Palin is in it for the loot ~ she's selling a basic message that represents the way most all American's feel. It's a good message but over simpified and the devil in the details. She had no details therefore no devil , just a rosy picture.
It's going to take more then a rosy picture and some "feel good" to sort this mess out.
But bottomline, she in it for the loot ~ Just like so many others. It's not a calling to serve but the cash. As some Americans eat it up. ~ Everybody enjoys ice cream and cake.

so what is your point? ~ by virtue of my age I should have "no opinion" or a one particular opinion? The pot and kettle metaphor elude me ~ and makes no sense ~ but I suppose it does to a person that labels everything with a wide brush.
Your view is a limited one.

| Is senator Graham calling it like it is? Posted: 11/4/2009 8:40:37 AM | | Republican governors were elected by 18 points in Virginia and 5 points in New Jersey. Both of these states went big for Obama, and both democrat candidates ran on Obama's agenda, and Obama campaigned hugely for both of them, so no, senator Graham, and the general tone of conservative bashing in this thread, are obviously NOT calling it like it IS. The people of Virginia and New Jersey have spoken. They want change they can REALLY believe in. | |

It may be limited but yours has no substance except whining about everyone that don't agree with you. I believe you think everyone is out of step except your little Johnnie. AKA brown clown You can't seem to discuss issue without calling people names , and would you know substance if it was handed to you with a red ribbon & bow around it or Your prophet Beck telling you of it?
IMHO You should keep your rude opinions to yourself. Most of them lean so far left I'm surprised you are not an implant from France. I'm not "left" at all ~ You are just in La La Land. Do you need to see my gun collection or something? And France is America's oldest and one of the strongest allies, strong enough and independent enough to tell the US "no" when she thinks it's necessary and in her best interest. You don't admire that in a friend? You'd rather have butt boy friends?
And what do you find rude about my opinions? ~ That working men and women had to fight a 1 hour fall back hour time change, bad weather, getting children to school and then to work and back home "THEN HAD" to compete with retired folks that worries about what for dinner and doctor visits ~ to get a good voter turnout? Many of these old timers are straight ticket GOP from the 70's regardless to who's running or the issues of the day.
I take care of two such people ~ that I love very much ~ but that don't change the reality of getting a good voter turn out. ~ Have you ever been involved with running a polling station? ~ Do you know what is required to "get the vote out? " My guess is that you haven't. Never been engaged with getting the vote out? ~ It started at 5.30 am and goes until 8.30 pm with a short 15 minute lunch maybe. You get to see the people , the people who vote! Have you? ever volunteered to run a poll. ~ It only required 3 short classes and one very long day of your time.
You sound just like the brown clown. AKA Obama well thank you! ~ actually there a word for Obama's color but it's not brown nor does it rhyme with clown. But I'll allow you to be on your own with such a statement. Kinda anal to bring up skin tones but I'll let someone else more offended then I to address you. I'll have to hand it to you for orginality ~ I haven't heard that one before.
The right in france is still left in the US. and the Left in Texas is Right everywhere else. And if It wasn't for the French we might be bowing to the Queen, eating bad tasting food and drinking tea.

There is no doubt you have the same trait as the brown clown. I have to ask you stright out. Are You Narcissistic ? With statements like above you always have an excuse when things don't go your way. Damn man step up and be a man and except shit will not always go your way. At the rate you are going, your small circle of friends just might send you a box of pampers for Christmas because you are always acting like a baby.

I have to tell you the truth , I have never worked for Acorn. Oh maybe that is why your candidate lost. No one to cheat for them.
Do you need to see my gun collection
You better hang on to that collection. You will need it. I stock up every chance I get. | |

I have doubts if you know the meaning of the word. And who is the "Brown Clown"?
You better hang on to that collection. You will need it. I stock up every chance I get. You've stock up with what? and for what purpose? Are you fearful of something too big to deal with or to complicated to figure out? Is the boggie man near?
I have to tell you the truth , I have never worked for Acorn. Oh maybe that is why your candidate lost. No one to cheat for them. So you have never been engaged into process of collecting the general election vote? Do you vote? Are you apart of the political process apart from being a Glenn Beck pet parrot? And ~ if you have to tell me the truth does that mean that you don't always tell the truth?
Do you know what the truth is? ~ or do you "wish" to just believe? Like Iraq's Hussein was in possession of WMD's? or We have something to win in Iraq?
With statements like above you always have an excuse when things don't go your way. Damn man step up and be a man and except shit will not always go your way.
I take it , you didn't like explanation for a poor DNC turn out. ~ So what do you think comprises the 28% hard core, die hard GOP faithful? or have you ever thought about it? You want feel this great a victory and promise of things to come? That the trash talk is working? ~ As I said many times ~ your entitled and that's much more then you have offered me by your inflammatory name calling, personal attacks and threats of preparing for violence.
Actually you are coming across much like Glenn Beck, you huff and puff and make a lot of noise demanding attention like a alpfa chimpanzee. This may be the way you resolve conflict but it's not going to work here.
and why do you keep bring up whining? Are you obsessed with the word? like "liberal" thinking it somehow covers everything that you can't articulate? Wasn't it you that was "whining" about Acorn? Or was that your evil twin? If I disagree it's considered whining? If you disagree you start labeling and call people names. How long has that been working for you? Do you think people are impressed with that? Does it make you powerful?
I'm enjoying what I see happening today ~ and people like yourself, Beck, and other's are indeed making it happen ~ It's called "spontaneous disclosure" you are being baited with knee jerk issues and drawn out so we can all get a better look at you. This ugly animal has been lurking in the shadows too long and needs redress and put to bed. It might take several years but it's good to final get started with the work that needs to be done.
I didn't serve this nation only to be threaten by a bunch alpha chimps with no respect for their fellow man or rules of laws.
I commend Senator Graham for standing up and being counted as a principled man and a American Patriot. Unlike Senator Joe Wilson that calls the President a liar as he himself lies about his military service record and his lawyer experience and credentials, showing no respect for the truth.
You don't lie period , much less about your service record to combat vets.

so no, senator Graham, and the general tone of conservative bashing in this thread, are obviously NOT calling it like it IS.
Interesting opinion, but it seems as if the New York election for a House representative indicates that senator Graham may be right. The ultra right conservative lost the election because of the infights among the Republican factions. It looks like in certain areas of the country there will be discrepancies between moderate Republicans and ultra-right conservatives who march at the drums of Beck, Limbaugh et al. If that happens, it may be very difficult for the Republicans to be successful in areas where the people are more interested in solving the problems that the country is facing now. | |

| Is senator Graham calling it like it is? Posted: 11/5/2009 4:58:54 PM | What's the difference between a Conservative Democrat and a moderate Republican? Not a whole lot. Unlike the left who will accept anything as long as it has a (D) next to the name, the infighting among the GOP is because of politicians like Amnesty Graham, Olympia Snowe, Benedict Arlen Spector, , and even George Bush. Republicans are supposed to stand for a responsible fiscal policy, "legal" immigration, the rule of law, low taxes, basically the government getting out of the way so we can live our lives. These so called moderates campaign on these issues and then act like Democrats when they get to Washington.
We know the sycophants on the left won't self regulate but we hold our politicians to a higher standard. And we won't stand for that kind of cronyism from the GOP any longer. It seems the only people who want responsible government anymore is those that attend Tea Parties. The rest of the nation is fine with the status quo as long as their people are in power.
That's fine when the nation is healthy but we're the Sick Man of The West. If we don't find the cure quickly, we're in big trouble. It's an oblivious American people that let career politicians speed the country towards oblivion. No more, not on our watch. | |

Total agree! The problem I'm have is that many of these same people that are spearheading this movement are the same ones that that got us where we are at today. ~They have called me unAmerican, unChristian, Picko , Tree Hugger, Give-me-crat, Dripping Liberal, Bleeding heart Liberal, Baby Killer, and lately a "brown clown lover" for refusing to support 43's administration and now this new packaging they offering . From heated debates to bar fights with threats of gun play. It's the same old thing ~ all over again!
So I agree whit what you are saying but I don't see any change ~ they are flying the same banner , calling me the same things and telling me they are "different!"
It's the same alpha monkey disguised in a different outfit! and the organ grinder is still Karl Rove and Company.
If this group can seperate it's self from the like of KR, Chaney, Newt , Rush, and Bill O'Really only then might they be believable and that they are different.
They won't do that ~ it would be impossible for them to, it's be like cutting off an arm.

Ok mister ripper, The patriot act, wire taps are good ways of collecting information. I know you liberals live in fairy tale land where the only threat is people with common sence. But America has been and will continue to be a target. Sane people try to defend themselves from risks. Collecting information aids in our defence. 911 is prooof positive that we need defence. So in know way can these great tools for collecting information be construed as parinoia.
Also America, like all nations have these things called laws. And in America it is a criminal act to enter our country in any other way than which is detailed in these laws. The real ID would help us figure out who is breaking our laws. There again common sence not parinoia. McCarthy was right! Was proven right! He is a hero to us not in love with communism. Which is why the left have reacted in a very parinoid fashion at just the sound of his name. Not wanting our country to become a mirror image of Sadam and Gamorra is not parinoia. We do not round gays up and put them in camps. We just do not want to have to go against our morals and be forced to put a stamp of approval on thier behavior. And it seems to be a whole lot of Americans who feel this way. There is no state that has excepted gay marriage by vote. Defending our constitutional right to own weapons in no way is parinoia, just common sence. The ACLU is waging war on christianity. Christmas is a part of that. There is many court cases to prove my point. But you would have to read facts. That is too painful for you to even consider. As all liberals hate facts.
And the leftist ideals are not American ideas. They originate with a man named Karl Marx. His idea's are proven failers. Millions have died trying to implement them. So we reject them. Common sence not parinoia. It is not parinoia to stick with what works. Our problems stem from people interjecting socialism into our capitalism. Capitalism is not broke. The marxist ideas plaguing it are though. We need a purified capitalism. | |

| Is senator Graham calling it like it is? Posted: 11/7/2009 7:13:09 AM | I assure you I have been here ~ I been engage in politics long before your prophet Glenn Beck got his first pair of long pants.
And it's true we helped the French in their time of darkness ~ when the dark forces of fascism raised it's ugly head through out Europe, ~ much like it attempting to rise again here in the US today.
But there is a time line to consider ~ History is a progression of events ~ This time line voids out any argument that you attempt to make about the French. ~ unless of course you wish to move history around for your personal understand and validation for your own twisted "views" We could well say, " If a pig had wings it'd fly" ~but pigs don't have wings ~ so any point is lost and your left with only a comical image of a flying pig.
Some people here in America today are falling into the same footstep of the German people after WWI. with the hate and anger for their fellow American. Willing to Lay blame are the wrong doorstep~ with one stroke of a wide brush "Liberal" You are looking for someone to blame for your pain and the things you see that "wrong" . ~ The truth of it is , you are late in being engaged and paying attention to your leaders and world events. Where was you when we needed your support and offering resistance to the" powers that be" years ago?
So it is only now that you have woke up ~ and see the present course is unsustainable. Well , Good Morning! How was your nap?
You need to get up to speed, there's a lot that you have missed while you grew up and was snoozing.
It took years to get here and it will take years to get out ~ This notion of laying waste to the whole country and government and starting all over that you and Beck entertain ~ is "not" an option.
And calling me names ~ and labeling me ~ just shows everyone here how simple minded you really are and how foolish your ideas are.
This tiny crowd that you follow is just loud ~ in an attempt to make up for their small numbers. ~ Resolve and Resolution is not what they seek but a scorched earth cleansing.
And it may well happen ~ but if it does , you and me and all Americans will suffer like we've never suffered before and it will take two decades minimum to rebuild. This fight for "ideas" is what keeps places like Iraq and Afghanistan one step above a Stone Age existence.
Today, we suffer from the power of special interest as their money and influence has our elected politicians bought off as they bleed the nation of it's personal wealth. ~ This is the "enemy" and human suffering and conflict is their game. There has always been good money is war for a few and their "hanger on" crowd. All the middle men. ~ Much like the "Gentery" and Knights of old Brittan and her Royalty. All the rest being peasants and of no great importance other then to pay the Tax man and provide conscripts of regional warfare at the whims of the Royalty.
Each life is comprised of minutes ~ what you fill them with is your business . But I don't like having to take out someone else's trash. ~ You take out your own garbage. And you are talking garbage out of your Flustration and inability to make the changes that need to be made overnight. ~ What you want can't happen overnight ~ even if you do lay waste to the whole country.
So I suggest you cool your jets and realized you not in this alone and we have more then one group of peoples interest to consider. We endevor to get from point A to point B with all cargo and crew accounted for. We might well takes some losses along the way but we'er not throwing people or cargo over board and we are not scuttling the vessel.
