Currently reading the book and it is brilliant. I wish I could memorize all of the quotes. I find it a perfect time to read it as you see so many similarities with our current economy. Interesting how this completely unrealistic “comic book” has so many realistic resemblances to reality. Anyone that denies this book has brilliant writing is letting their personal beliefs cloud their objectivism.

haha, I totally agree. Calista could be cast as Castafiore’s sister on Tintin. Can you imagine the Gingrich couple representing our country? It’d be like a freak show — a little bit like the image of Kim Jong Il as representing North Korea.
The cartoonists would be in high heaven.

I like Obama because when I see a svelte, athletic president jogging up stage, I feel like our country is all right.[/quote]

Like the cartoonists don’t have fun with every president. I have seen tons of cartoons of dumbo.

Glad you feel our country is “all right” based on your physical description. Sounds more like you want to get down on your knees for him more than anything.

Back to the topic, the current batch sucks, granted anything is better than the current. I think more long term. As a classical liberal I would love to see Marco Rubio. He will be president some day. Marco my words.

Gee where have I heard that one before?

[quote=pri_dk]I’m sorry, are we talking about today or four [?] years ago when she was an unknown that came on the scene?[/quote]
“Came on the scene?” Are talking about a Kardashian?

Or are we talking about someone who was chosen, over dozens of qualified people, as the top candidate for one of the most significant political positions in the country?

Do you understand the difference?

So if Palin’s not your gal anymore, who are you supporting these days?

(Lemme guess…I won’t get a response until after you are told the answer during today’s talk-radio broadcast.)[/quote]

I know exactly what you mean. Palin was so well known by the public before the campaign. You can’t be serious about this? Clearly over the past four years since the campaign she has had much more coverage bringing her politics to the limelight.

The problem is there is no worthy candidate of the republican party to support.

Then why has not a single Republican politician said as much?[/quote]

So if they say anything about it they are damned for feeding into it and if they don’t mention it (because frankly it isn’t worth mentioning) they are damned. Do you go around talking about every stupid thing you heard on the street?

[quote=pri_dk]
Really?

On April 27, FoxNews.com posted the banner headline “White House Releases What It Says Is President Obama’s Long-Form Birth Certificate.”

“what it says?” – how lame is that? Qualifying a statement by the Commander in Chief (and the state government of Hawaii) with “what he claims?”

And if the issue is not that important, then why is the Republican party leadership (i.e. the Fox News staff) talking about it so much?[/quote]
I’m sorry, I guess when the president holds a press conference they shouldn’t cover it.

Glad to see some things haven’t changed. Brian still has his progressive elitist generalizations trying to tie fringe groups on the right to the right as a whole. The whole birther thing is a joke and was a joke. Even fox news denounced the birther movement. However, Brian, all educated all knowing, will use this small fraction to paint all on the right as having the same mindset. Also Brian, Palin and Trump do not represent the right. Look at Trump’s voting and donation history. They are more in line with the left. The guy is an idiot and would do more harm to the right than good. Same goes for Palin. The right knows this and that is why a majority of them don’t support them.

Naturally, any rhetoric not coming from the left will be consider ranting and raving by you. If it doesn’t fit in the progressive mantra than it is bad for society. After all, they know what is best for you. Just ask them, they will tell you.
