Any time they want to get away from issues and play dirty we can beat them up bad.
Ugh, should I even bother with MTP? Kennedy and Brokaw... talk about dullsville.
I hope the GOP uses that to their advantage.
Well, she has already assumed the role of President and Secretary of Defense. So why not the Pope?
The media is really trying to make this a huge issue. I wonder how McCain camp will over come the media blitz about it?
McCain ad "Housing Problem" with Obama and Tony Rezko
After 8 years of George W. Bush not responding to any Dem attack, it is really refreshing to now have somebody that has a pit bull at the Dem's jugular before the Dem has even finished talking.
I am still waiting to hear George W. Bush (He's the racist that allowed black people to drown, ya know. The Dems would not lie about a thing like that. < /sarc>) say a single word about these:
Just starting here. Ritter is chomping at the bit, trying to sound better than he has proved as a governor.
Actually, understanding Joe Biden requires an understanding of psychopathic fluency. By understanding this it does not mean Senator Biden has a character or other mental health disorder. In the common parlance we often label these individuals as "fast talkers" and are on guard against their blandishments. This caution seems tossed to the side in political and religious matters where an underlying belief system is fiercely held by the audience but only tentatively, or not at all, by the psychopathically fluent.
Some people early in life express an unusual degree of fluency and ability to speak and convince others. Looked at carefully, it is apparent their speech and actions are predicated on the immediate or anticipated audience. That is they are unusually fluent because their views are not tethered by conscience or anything much except the immediate effect. Words are then levers that are designed to move an audience; the words have minimal to no real connections with underlying values or beliefs
This fluency also lacks a substantial value orientation although it is helpful for the psychopathically fluent to have a normal, intact family, religious faith, etc. Here lacking an internal tether, an inferior, external tether helps save the day from complete catastrophe.
The psychopathically fluent are outstanding successes in sales, professions (including the clergy) and politics since they are constantly focused on pleasing the immediate audience.
What some see as "gaffes" are really failures of the psychopathically fluent to connect their words to previous experience, reason or history. They then seem silly and mistaken in asserting unwarranted views.
Both Obama and Biden are extremely arrogant and full of a fat inflated ego problem.
Hey! The resemblance is actually pretty good!
Yes Mrs. Cleaver, I would never bankrupt the country. :D
birds of a feather...
She needs a bitchslap.
Thanks. Wish I had said that.
Just to point out to everyone, the Recreate68 crowd is having their first protest on FNC.
Denver police have two buses ready and waiting if needed.
FYI and FWIW, Tim Pawlenty coming up on Woffie’s show after the break. Yes, an actual republican will be on the air afterall.
...sorta.
I’m sure I recall Biden arguing on Senate floor to keep AMTRAK on the point that even HE rides it. So?
LATE EDITION (CNN) Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C.
“time for the torch to be passed”

Clyburn seems like a real gentleman, more evidence Biden is a burden

Blitzer comment on civil rights ect.”Biden has an excellent record”[no bias here, Joe’s excellent]/s
Blitzer “they can thank Obama for making Biden his running mate”
