here’s the excerpt to chapter 2:

“President Obama called me in the summer of 2010, asking me if I had an altar of his face in his house. I replied “yes” and have pledged my allegiance to him on that night by stripping naked and kneeling before his picture every night because of my deep hatred for Republicans.”

“....Florida governor who switched from the Republican Party to Democrat...”
Just about the same time as Obama’s position on gays evolved into a full fledged endorsement.........Hmmmmmm. Coincidence?

He ran ambulance chasing ads from some law office on TV for a while during “Wheel of Fortune” in Florida.

After watching the Zimmerman trial, I got the impression that few people in Florida, a state that called three incompetent, basically illiterate physicians to testify, are literate.

What else is new. Olympia Snowe, Gerald Ford, etc. These people are all the same. When moderates and democrats destroy conservatives, well that’s par for the course. That’s the natural order of things, dontcha know! But when life is made difficult for moderates and liberals, oh bring on the tears and the gnashing of teeth and the violins. “if only we could only all get along” meaning “if only we would be allowed to go along with the democrats without the threat of getting thrown out of office or being thwarted from getting into office” If only...

But what can Charley Crist unload on conservatives that has not already been much better said by others?

On the other hand, if he does wish to plagiarize, he will certainly have plenty of source material.

One thing we can be sure of, not much of what he proposes to write about will be particularly original or in any way much of a revelation. More than likely, not much content of actual fact, either, if earlier efforts by others are any kind of indication.

Well, sure, but before that, he'll be on every LSM morning show, Sunday roundtable, Piers Morgan, every hour on MSNBC.

And still, nobody will give a crap about him.

Big deal. I hope he includes the ad he and his wife are in on TV begging for donations for Sandy victims. Wonder why our taxes and insurance companies don’t take care of this? Oh, I forget, thieves.

Somehow I think that there will be certain personal topics that Charlie Crist (D-Green Iguana) will be skipping.
