I HATE TO AGREE, BUT I HAVE TO

Don't you just LOVE that picture?

One of my commenters (a guy who comments troll-like on many blogs, whose name I won't mention, but who has webbed feet), delights in pointing out his opinion that the Republican candidates are eating each other alive.

I agree.

I am sick and tired of them attacking each other.

The problem is, one of them is going to win and then, all of a sudden, the others will back him to the hilt!

I would much rather hear them say, "This is where I stand on this issue,  and this is where I stand on that issue," and let us know who they are, instead of who the others aren't.

That would make me a much more informed voter.

Besides, I have to take every attack, whether by RS, MR or NG with a very large grain of salt.

They are wallowing in half-truth and innuendo, never telling the context or background of whatever attack they are positing at the time.

Heads up, guys! We want men we can vote FOR, not choice of who not to vote for.

Maybe once they read this post they will wake up and start standing for whatever they stand for and stop trying to be who they're not.

But probably not.

Anyway, its still ABO.

Joe, It's who they are.

Joe, It's what they do. It's all they know how to do.

It gets even better, Joe. By the time these titans finish punching themselves out the only one with any money will be Romney and Obama has a bankroll to steamroll him.

That's American politics. Money talks, the culture war walks.

Say it ain't so Joe. Say it ain't so!

Rule Number One:
How fortunate it is for Governments that the people just do not think.

Rule Number Two:
If the Government can get people asking all the wrong questions, the Government does not have to answer the correct ones.

Rule Number Three:
When the Government tries to 'educate' the people they get, in response, "Yeah, whatever. Can't you see I'm in the middle of a re-run of 'IRT: Marianas Trench'? Close the door on your way out."

Rule Number Four:
Four legs good. Two legs bad.

Sure am glad Hillary and Barack didn't attack each other.

Ducky: Money talks, but sometimes it mumbles.

ALtC: They do a pretty good job of getting us to ask the wrong questions, don't they?

Regardless of how much they attack each other, they cannot accuse each other of being a rapist -- as Bill Clinton has. They cannot accuse each other of fathering a child with a mistress -- as John Edwards has. They cannot accuse each other of condoning the murder of thousands of unborn babies every day, as EVERY democrat does. As you say, ABO. Hmm, I feel another Immutable Truth about liberals coming on.

#17. Every time liberals get on their high horse, they get bucked off.

How did you like that rerun of his last 3 State of the Union speech's?
For sure his fourth and last State of the Union speech was long on government handouts and redistribution of the wealth. And short on substance.
I loved it when he blamed everything but the Earthquake and the Tsunamiin Japan on the Republicans and then asked them to cooperated with him.

Rerun of the last three?

Try a rerun of the last 31. Have you been asleep, Jarhead?

But of course you have. American politics stated three years ago for the fringe right.

Ducky: "American politics stated three years ago for the fringe right."

Stated?

I wish you people would learn to write the English language and to proof-read your comments.

Pet peeves: Your, instead of you're. There, instead of their.
Their, instead of his, her or his/her.

You can always tell those educated in government schools...but you can't tell them much.

Joe, an obvious typo and I'm typing this with two fractured fingers.

But thanks for the edit, Grammar Girl.

"started"
Now do you have a substantive reply.

Ducky: "... an obvious typo and I'm typing this with two fractured fingers."

Reminds me of the old joke: "Doc, it hurts when I press here, and it hurts when I press here. It even hurts when I press over her. What's wrong with me?"

"You dolt. You've got a broken finger."

Putting all seriousness aside, sorry to hear about your damaged digits.

You are a funny guy, Joe.

Are you aware that your wit is lost to most of your commeters?
