So much for backing another quitter…

    I backed Cain… he quit… I backed Santorum… he just quit… In November I’ll vote for anyone than the Obama/Biden ticket unless I’m to sick to go to the polls… If I’m dead I’ll still vote but cannot guarantee it’ll be the way I would if alive (I live in PA) I am not happy with Romney likely winning, for a variety of reasons that | Read More »

    blank entry, please delete

    Sorry, but this is not the place for such as this. We try to stick with stuff that is at least tangentially related to politics, issues and policy. – Mgmt

    Afghanistan…

    In my opinion the problem with Afghanistan is very, very simple*. In many conflicts when the strategy shifts from “winning” to “not losing” losing is pretty much the end result. Whether you study history or just apply the concept to your home game (whatever it may be) it’s a startlingly obvious thing to those who never noticed it before. Original objective: Destroy AQ there and | Read More »

    Refineries closing?

    As if we don’t have enough problems that help gas prices go up… Pennsylvania economy getting flushed Oh-and it’ll hurt the whole northeast as well… good thing it’s happening right now in an election year and all – maybe some opportunist narcissistic politician will fix this to score points before denying the keystone pipeline… oh wait… that would assume that someone is on our side… | Read More »

    I’ll say it… Newt, please gracefully step down.

    Just got in a little bit ago and saw the current results for Alabama and Mississippi… it looks strong enough to hold on for Santorum to win both. Previously Romney won his “home” state, the one where he was raised in, by essentially one county going mostly for him and Gingrich/Santorum’s splitting of overlapping voters. Gingrich has clearly lost his home state and the other | Read More »

    Question about gas prices…

    If the statements from the O and his energy administrative assistant in the past that bringing US gas prices to European levels would help ease the US into alternative fuels/electric cars show their intent to break the US of it’s “bad energy habits” I have one question: Why hasn’t Europe had some previous breakthrough regarding electric vehicles? If Europe has had high gas prices for | Read More »

    Chameleon karma, karma, karma…

    Was listening to Mr. Savage’s radio show while driving home tonight and he was giving advice to Romney that came down to essentially change what you’re saying to get more support. It struck me that this is exactly a big problem in politics – people do change what they’re saying to be the chameleons they need to be to get elected and once they’re in | Read More »

    Bomb Syria? Really?

    When did the U.S. Military become an arm of the Muslim brotherhood (or whichever arm of Jihad crazed islamics is behind the Syrian unrest)? Seriously, McCain called for the U.S. to bomb Syria. Why? Why do we have to get involved in everyone’s civil wars these days? Really? Can’t we just let them sort it out themselves? Don’t give me the “oh boo-hoo it’s gonna | Read More »

    Beautiful day in PA today…

    We finally get some snow to make it look like Winter and Santorum makes a race of the GOP nomination… win-win… Going to watch the Luckster romp in the snow now… Am I really that thrilled with Santorum? Not really, but compared with the rest of what’s running at the moment he’s the least foot in mouth kind of guy, least insane ideologically and the | Read More »

    Santorum?

    Maybe? A really good showing or a win in Florida might do it to push him up with or past Gingrich or Romney. Time will tell, I’ve been wrong before etc, but I think he’s positioned just right to pull out an upset.
