I hurried through my route today to rush home and fire up the univac with the anticipation of a child on Christmas morning.I do so enjoy reading what everybody has to say.The real beauty of our country is the diversity of its population and everyone has a unique set of life experiences to draw on.Sharing what we have learned as we travel through this life enriches all of us.
To all the lurkers out there:
Ours is a small,user-friendly site.We don’t have tens of thousands of people or threads with hundreds of comments so what you have to add to the conversation is seen and appreciated.There is no such thing as a dumb question(unless you’re talking to Helen Thomas.) If you’re looking for a respite from the tsunami of cynicism and negativity that will crescendo as the elections draw near,you have a home.Welcome.
THEY THINK YOU ARE STUPID
Obama points fingers at everyone but himself for the soaring price of gas and the media whores dutifully fall in line.
ROMNEY,SANTORUM RIP INTO EACH OTHER AT PIVOTAL DEBATE
I actually stayed up to watch most of this.It was truly painful.If Santorum lets Romney pimp-slap him,imagine what the Magic Negro would do with the media whores asking the questions.
GINGRICH:IT’S ‘UTTERLY STUPID’ TO SAY YOU CAN’T CONTROL THE BORDER
I still say,finish the fence,beef up the Border Patrol with 30,000 armed National Guard troops with orders to return fire if fired upon.That would do it.Or this.
No interviews,no sightseeing or shopping.Their advisors said it would look bad to show off their lifestyle while everybody else is hurting.She took pains not to draw any attention to herself.
VIDEO: Rudy Giuliani’s 2007 South Carolina statement to Ron Paul was likened to Ronald Reagan’s “I am paying for this microphone” statement in Nashua in 1980.
I never listened to Ron Paul before the recent SC debate. His statement here, the one that set Giuliani off, just confirmed for me what I thought after the SC debate. I.e., Ron Paul may be smart about finance and obstetrics, but he is a flaming moron about foreign policy.
Two things about the videos linked below swayed me toward Newt.
One, I think he’s right that the only way to beat Obama is to nominate a candidate who is VERY different from Obama, which means not another John McCain RINO moderate like Romney.
Two, he has a strength of character, an SOB factor if you will, that makes me think he can deal with everything the Democrat Media Complex, Democrat legislators, and world class bullies would throw at him.
Santorum has the more exemplary personal life, but he’s nice. I’d love to have his family living in our neighborhood, going to our church, etc.
But I am just not seeing the warrior toughness needed to get elected and steer our country back to being the city on a hill the founders created.
Newt Holds Townhall Meeting With Meredith Lakes Region Tea Party [1:44:37]
Take a moment to peruse the newly added Candidates page above for links and information about specific GOP primary presidential candidates. You’ll find links for each candidate’s campaign website. You can also utilize the candidate pages for adding links and information about specific candidates that others might find useful in deciding how to vote in the upcoming primaries or how to get more involved. News items should still be posted on the daily grudge, but this will give everyone a place to look for candidate-specific information, rather than hot issues.
If you haven’t checked it out already, there’s also a new page with countdown timers for the upcoming primaries/caucuses. I’ve added a link there, as well as on the Candidates page, to the GOP Primary Debate Schedule (which includes links to archives of each past debate). Don’t Forget…the first of two debates in New Hampshire is tonight at 9pm EST on ABC, followed by a 9am EST (yes…that’s AM!) debate on NBC. Links to the ABC debate live stream are available on the debate schedule page.

Don’t plan on posting too much–we’ll see how it goes.
As I drove around this morning,alone with my thoughts as I delivered my papers, I got to thinking about Obama’s naked power grab.The more I thought about it the more he reminded me of Yul Brynner in The Ten Commandments.Both believed they descended from heaven to rule as some sort of god on earth.When the Pharaoh spoke he’d point a finger and say: ‘so let it be written-so let it be done.’ The scribes would scratch his words on parchment and issue his edicts to the unwashed masses who worshipped at the many temples he had built to himself.Notice the similarities?Pharaoh took half the straw from the Israelites and told them their quota of bricks must remain the same.Pharobama takes half of what his subjects have and scolds them for being greedy for not giving more for him to use as he will.
Both caused masses of humankind great hardship and deprivation merely because they felt it was their birthright to do so.The people should be grateful to be ruled by an omnipotent being and willingly sacrifice everything in service to him.
WHITE HUT SEES WIN IN CORDRAY MOVE
Before I saw this article I had it figured out.Pharobama is picking fights intentionally with congress and the senate knowing full well they won’t buy into it.Then he waggles a finger and wails they are a ‘do nothing’ congress.This was his stated plan all along.I recall reading somewhere when he finished his Hawaiian vacation he planned on getting the tax holiday extended for a year then devoting the rest of the year to campaigning for reelection.Maybe someday we’ll have a president who takes time out from running for office to actually do something for the country.
CONGRESS SHUCKS ETHANOL SUBSIDIES,NOT MANDATES
Don Wade talked about this this morning.Congress is patting itself on the back for ending ethanol subsidies.Unfortunately,the use of ethanol in fuel is still required.Soooo since the oil companies have to spend more to produce gasoline,guess who’ll be paying more…a LOT more for gas? http://news.investors.com/Article/596556/201201031827/ethanol-corn-biofuels-alternative-energy.htm
STEVE GREEN(VODKAPUNDIT) DOES HIS YEAR IN REVIEW
(is it just me,or does he bear a striking resemblance to Alec Baldwin?)
CNN DEFINES SANTORUM:RACIST,PAPIST,HOMOPHOBE
Welcome to the big time,Senator.Now bend over and spread your cheeks–the press would like a word or two with you.It doesn’t really matter what you say,they’re going to edit it anyway. http://www.breitbart.tv/cnn-defines-santorum-racist-papist-homophobe/
APPARENTLY GRUDEN DOESN’T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A WOMAN AND A WATER BUFFALO
RUSH ALLUDED TO THIS YESTERDAY–SANTORUM SPOKE FOR 20 MINUTES WITHOUT A TELEPROMPTER
NEWT’S NEW AD
Newt got torched for whining about having to sit in the back of Air Force One when he was Speaker.Then he turned everybody off by acting like a petulant child Tuesday.Put a fork in him–he’s done.
THE KRAUT SPEAKS
Sorry for the excessive proselytizing,I had a lot to get off my chest.Hopefully some of the videos will make it worth stopping by for a minute or two.
A NOSTALGIC OBAMA USES WEBCAST TO RALLY HIS IOWA ROOTS
This man’s resentment over not being the center of attention constantly borders on the pathological.Remember he tried to call a joint session of Congress to talk about nothing to interrupt the first Republican debate? He has a sick need to insert himself into every conversation.Too bad there is no substance to him.
NEWT TO RUN FULL PAGE AD AGAINST ROMNEY IN NEW HAMPSHIRE
I think Newt truly dislikes Mittens because he’s the only one who can fund himself.40% of the negative ads in Iowa were against Gingrich and paid for by Romney.
According to House rules and that darn Constitution,he can’t do this while Congress is in session.The GOP has been having sessions every third day so they are not legally in recess.That doesn’t matter a whit to this assclown.Won’t do what I want?Screw you,I’ll do it anyway.Try to stop me.
SNUFFLEUPAGUS:ROMNEY’S REASSURING OF CONSERVATIVES WILL ‘TURN OFF’ MODERATES
I was flipping through channels last night and accidentally landed on MSLSD for about 15 seconds. Rev. Tarbaby and Butch Madcow were on the panel. Rev. was chirping about the farther right Romney went the more moderates and independents would be drawn to Bozo. Sorry,Al. That dog won’t hunt. Independents are fleeing the plantation master in droves. Better get your vote fraud machine fired up–you’re gonna need it. http://newsbusters.org/blogs/scott-whitlock/2012/01/04/stephanopoulos-spin-romneys-reassuring-conservatives-will-turn-mod-0
IN HIS WEEKLY RADIO LIES,OBAMA SPEAKS OF TOUGH DEBATES IN 2012
OK:rant time.Gingrich talked about challenging Obozo to 7 three-hour debates.I’ve heard a lot about who could out-debate him.Let me make this clear:debates don’t win presidencies.Obama could pass gas and pee himself and the presstitutes would still marvel at his ‘magnificent performance.’ You already know that.Second,we all know without a screen to read from,he’s a stuttering buffoon.He will agree to two debates at most,and will get the questions in advance.The republican candidate will be grilled on abortion,religion,foreign policy and how to punish the rich.Obama will be asked five different ways about how he single-handedly dispatched Bin Laden.Just don’t put a lot of stock into a pre-packaged dog and pony show.
I’LL BE POSTING MY FUNNY CHRISTMAS VIDEOS TOMORROW AND A SPECIAL ONE ON FRIDAY.EVERYBODY WILL BE BUSY OVER THE WEEKEND,BUT STOP BY AND CHECK SOME OF THEM OUT WHEN YOU HAVE TIME.I’LL LEAVE YOU WITH THIS ONE FOR NOW.
Thank you all so much for your words of encouragement.I care so much for all of you that when things don’t go as they should I feel as useless as tits on a boar.I always try to give you the best that I’m capable of.It’s little enough for all I get from everybody here.
NBA STARS TO PLAY IN OBAMA BASKETBALL FUNDRAISER
Not so surprising;most of them have criminal records,so they should feel right at home at the White Hut.Question is,why does that pompous ass need a billion dollars to savage the Republican nominee when his palace guards in the media will happily do it for free?
RUSH:NOW IT’S NEWT’S TURN FOR AN ANAL EXAM,BUT HOW COME IT’S NEVER ROMNEY’S?
What really irritates me is the field is always winnowed down to the weakest,most spineless,mushy moderate to satisfy the establishment.I NEVER hear that democrats have to settle.They know full well the teachers unions are turning out dumb-as-dirt lumps indoctrinated in the ways of liberalism.Their candidate just pretends to be moderate to fool a few inattentive independents and the welfare parasites automatically fall in line.At this point,I don’t know if a real conservative would have a chance.Would it be worth risking another Obozo term,which would be the end of our way of life?
REID NOT BUTTERING UP BOEHNER NOW THAT HE HAS LEVERAGE IN DEFICIT TALKS
Put candy-ass weeper of the House in a ring with a two-legged rattlesnake and the outcome is a foregone conclusion.Remember when the Senate was 50-50 and Cheney was the tie-breaking vote?Daschle conned Trent Lott into “co-chairing” committees in the spirit of bipartisanship? That lasted until they got Jim Jeffords to sell out his party for a chairmanship and all the bipartisan crap went out the window.Our side never learns.
SUPERCOMMITTEE DEM SAYS TRIGGERING AUTOMATIC CUTS WOULDN’T BE FAILURE
To the contrary,it’s just what they wanted.They will slash military spending and bully the republicans into increasing taxes.That would turn the base against the GOP.The dem base could care less,because they’re the ones who take.
“Sing to God, sing in praise of his name, extol him who rides on the clouds; rejoice before him—his name is the LORD. A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling.”
