Karl Rove was the republican a--hole, and Salonistas claimed it proved that the repubs were the party of satan. Now that the shoe is on the other foot, it's ok if your party employs one. How charming. How utterly predictable.
Not yours. Can't have it. Make up your own thing. Period.
You are assuming that minds that matter were changed by the critics in the first place. You should not assume that everyone thinks like you. It is the mark of a very poor journalist(?)
Liberal feminism at its best. You people are such pathetic losers, you can't adhere to your own standards for even the simplest test or the briefest of periods. These comments prove that liberals only "love, tolerate, and support" those who think exactly as they do. Bigots, all of you.
P.S. I read an article here recently that stated that the only way the republican party would survive would be if it became democrat. Well, now it looks like BO is becoming republican. Ha Ha.
Having been born and raised there, I feel qualified to make this statement. Bulldoze it and start over, starting with the mayor's mansion. It's been defiled.
It's probably not a good idea to bail out the auto industry either. Not with broom pushers making $60,000/yr.
You have saved them the trouble, and removed yourself from an organization whose rules you did not agree with. This is a story, how exactly? What, you did not know that the Mormons do not accept homosexuality, or ANY OTHER FORM OF SEX OUTSIDE OF TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE? When did this revelation occur to you? Of course, no other human on the planet has ever quit an organization whose philosophy diverged from their own...
This is news? Oh yeah, because it's gay. I forgot.
History teaches that a party, once "thumped" is gone forever...
Duh.
After four or possibly eight years of massive failures on the part of the democrats (as did the republicans), and the superficial realignment of the republican party, Americans will do what they have always done, and vote the bums out. Is this so hard to see? Yes, when the party that the author supports is in power.
All we are is dust in the wind...
"(the country is) sick of conservatism as a governing philosophy."
Do you really think conservatives think that the republican part is "conservative"? From a "give all your money to a bum if you want, but keep your hand out of my wallet conservative", far from it.
Wallow in your wanton ignorance. The reason BO won is because conservatives are no long willing to reward liberal behavior from the republican party. Period. When republicans begin demonstrating conservatism, they will be re-elected. Bush is no conservative. Oddly enough, it may turn out that Barry is no liberal. Bill wasn't. Wouldn't that be funny.
and the salsa was salty. Way salty. When I brought this to the waiters attention, he said "no senor, it is always that way". Having high blood pressure, I knew they were out to get me. I will never eat there again...
Salty salsa. It kills
get ready...
has no moral code. Just the way it likes it. Welcome to the world the 60's made. Stop whining about it and revel in the fact that anything goes. What, you think you can pick and choose which perversions are allowed when they are all allowed? Stop being so judgemental.
You can't have your cake and eat it too...
P.S. Please support NAMGLA (North Amercian Man/Goat Love Association)
you can't be gay and catholic. The two are mutually exclusive (I am Napoleon Bonaparte!! i.e. saying so does not make it so). Considering the gross state of error this person is living in, would you give anything he has to say much credence?
Calming a jittery nation? Looks like he is already failing on the job.
The U.S. government has been shredding the constitution for the last 50 years (democrat and republican alike), and some still think it is in-force. I almost feel sorry for the arrogant jerk that thinks he can fix this mess. We are headed for the french solution. The Iclanders got it right. It's time to bust some windows.
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure."
Thomas Jefferson
"Obama is going to have to undo so much that Bush did." Do you really think that Bush did it all by his retarded little self? Grow a brain. The government that was in power during the last eight years is still in power. Get ready for more of the same. BO is already sounding way more like his predecessor than any of his rabid fans thought he would. His cabinet selections are just recycled Clintonistas, and his homeland security secretary has encouraged Mexico to invade our country for the last decade or so.
Boy, some people are really stupid.
"public schools offer free remedial training". Oh yeah, now there's a solution. "Public" education, otherwise known as government training compounds. If that is where you got yours, that would answer a few questions.
