Just asking.

And you know all about me, how, precisely again? Really, I am waiting with almost erotic anticipation at your epiphany. Do tell.

If course they did.

They don't like Romney because he's a Mormon and they don't like Huckabee because he's the wrong kind of Baptist. McCain was the default choice.

I heard the main Dem candidates propose we needed to be in Iraq through 2011, 2012, 2018, 2020 depending on who and what day of the week. If that's not, for practical purposes, forever, I'm not clear on what is.

The Democratic candidate of your choice, or the one that gets elected and at least you're not convulsing in hatred over, and that person doesn't or can't or won't end the Iraq war during their first or only term? It's pretty clear that if nothing else there is a huge disconnect between the major candidates and the populace vis a vis this conflict. We here them tell us it's bad blah blah blah but we also hear them hedging and talking about 'a measured withdrawal' too. I think that no matter who is in the White House we will be in in Iraq through 2012 regardless. So what will say then and will the whole antiwar movement implode on its own with no viable political voices at all to speak for them?

Are happily obsessed with 60/60/24/7/365 election coverage.

He bought in.

Eugene V Debs was a huge fan of Mussolini, BTW.

Good or bad, if you look at what fascism and statism and corporatism are in real terms, Goldberg makes some valid points. There really is a thread of top down statist fascism in the left. It's not midnight Nuremberg rallies and such but it's there.

I thought you would have understood that. But I guess you were too busy sucking down the Haterade.

As opposed to whom, exactly? Why is this relevant? Because he's black? Because black people are special? Because there's a different ethos in play?

Maybe you really can't pander BELOW the basest stupidest inclinations of the fine people of South Cakyclack. I mean, look at it for a moment, what do you think people should say? Make Protestant Christianity the law of the land? Let's bring back Cotton Mather? What would make those morons happy? Bring back slavery? Outlaw literacy for women?

Never saw that before. Someone call the media.

I saw BB and it was brilliant. Not in an oh so precious This is almost as good as the Wire Salon feminist post modern kind of way. It's a great story. And Salon needs to stop hiring sweet young things who are out of their depth, applying whatever 3rd year college art criticism they know, to everything.

The amount of real life you don't have a fucking clue about could fill the Library of Congress.

there would 500 posts by now, most of them in the form of verbal circle jerks.

How's the light down there in the basement with your Transformer toys?

If everyone switched to electric cars, how much more electricity would we produce and how would that be produced? Coal I suspect.

Laugh and point at the GOP. Make fun of them, make fun of the 50% of the people who like them. Be arrogant. That's worked so well before. All they need do is turn up the mean and Dems fold and flounder like they always do.

Dems have this tragic flaw that they think they can mock their opponents. They're not that good at it, they're not mean enough. And in the end all it does is make them seem disconnected from the populace. You can't highbrow people and get away with it. And if the Dems insist on mocking the 50% (or 30%, of course there's never been an election with that big a spread - 50% is closer to reality) of the populace that identifies with beer swilling redneck psychochristians then they will lose. Sorry but that's just history talking. The GOP really doesn't need a platform or a position on anything. All they need to do is say "We're for Amurrica, We're for Jayzus! Them thar Dem-o-crat-libruls are for smoking crack and forcin your virgin daughters to convert to Islam and have abortions!!!"

And then you lose.

You can have it affordable or you have it Green. Pick one.

Middle income people aren't going to lavishly overspend on vanity projects they can't afford, just because and poor(er) people well they're just out of the loop completely.
