Now that crack by ole Newt is as surely only to work up the Cobb redneks as anything he has ever said!
In other words, if you don't want that, vote for me!
There is not a chance in hell that Clinton would select Obama to be her Vice-president, and Newt knows it!
She already has enough black votes to win any state where they exist in numbers.
You can bet on a Shalala, or someone of that ilk, probably not a woman, if Clinton gets the nomination. I'm not certain she will---she can easily self-destruct within the next six or so months.
Gingrich is selling books and his high-paying company---nothing else!
Guys like Gingrich, Oreilly, Hannity, Limburger, and a dozen "conservative talk radio and TV people are done for soon.
Giuliana might get 30% of the vote against any democrat. He is a dud and not a conservative by any measure. His program and budgets would be all business and he would never find a state like Mississippi, Alabama, Maine, Idaho, etc., much less help those people or any other ordinary people for that matter.
Newt didn't say vote for Romney did he?

Welcome back

I yam what I yam...Popeye

I've been trying to keep up while I've been out. Honestly though, I haven't missed much. Most of the blogs have just plain "sucked" lately.

What happened to Mixer? Is he a gonner again?

**** GIT REAL TOUGH ON CRIME ****

"That man was Griffin Judicial Circuit District Attorney Scott Ballard".

CLICK HERE FOR THE REST OF THE STORY

sucked. Not much action at all. Perhaps when the Ballard klan finds out that you're back things will pick-up. Jeff C. wrote a little goodbye to mixer. It just will not be the same. It's so sad!!!!

Conservatism – apply it directly to the forehead.

it's not "everyone wants to say" it should read "a lot have said". As for banning, I don't have an avatar promoting a ban on $. Perhaps you're thinking of someone else.

You'll have to show me where I said $ is off topic, I just asked him a question, and I have never said he should be banned. Lets see, you dog Bush for not going to Vietnam and at the same time say you were a draft resister, Bush did more then you, you also say that PTC police shouldn't trap the child molesters on the internet, so I have to say the only way I would be worried about anything you say is if you agreed with me.

I yam what I yam...Popeye

Said early about the 9/11 fiasco: "anyone who doesn't believe we are at war is crazy."

Now, he says: Bush has been fighting a phony war since 9/11 (for the benefit of voters).

He blusters!!!!!!

A Newt Rebuttal

In Newt's favor, I invite all to visit www.americansolutions.com and become familiar with his views and thoughts. He has two video's that strongly reinforce his positions. To name a few:
He would like to Win the Future; i.e. preserve for our children the best hope of man on the earth. To accomplish this, he would like to empower each citizen to play a role in charting such a course.
He advocates broad scale engagement of elected officials and candidates of both parties at all levels of government.
Develop and implement breakthrough solutions to the most important issues facing the country.
His goal is to Listen, Learn, Help and Teach; i.e. Listen to find out why people believe as they do, Learn what the resistance is, Help people see another perspective and help them validate the presented idea(s) and finally, Teach them the presented goal.
As for Newt's wealth, a little history will show that he is a professor and teaches. His almost daily appearances on televisions premiere shows and talk radio has earned him recognition as a most credible and intelligent man.
We can only hope that he decides to enter into the Presidential race as a Republican.

Win the future?
Best hope of man on the earth (what is it?)
Empower each citizen... (how)
Broad scale engagement of officials....(?)
Implement breakthrough solutions (what and how)
goal is to listen, learn, help, and teach (teach what?)
See another perspective? (His?)
Teach them the presented goal (all 300 million of us?)
Professor and teacher (where and what) used to a little at a low salary!
If he does run it will certainly be as a republican, which he has pretty much hated lately! He wouldn't get 6 democratic votes nationwide!
He should have "taught" (if he is a good teacher) his wives to behave!
We can only hope? (what?) If your best hope, you are hurting for hope.

As best that I can tell, republican family values has nothing to do with three wives---whether they left you or you left them (sick), and others who might do the same kind of things are wrong to people like Gingrich, because he means well----they don't.
Hypocrisy is a word not in the republican manual. Thinking ahead is also not in the manual.
Just how much time do you think people like Karl Rove have thought about such things as the USA infrastructure, making ourself independent of oil, as has France nearly, overhauling our electrical power generation and national grids, rebuilding or repairing thousands of dangerous dams, stopping the flow of our manufacturing to China, etc., paying off some of our debt instead of adding to it (Bush's promise of a five year balanced budget), Re-establishing our railroads as a back up transportation system for us and in case of war, for the military, and on and on?
These people are thinkers. They want to depend entirely on business and the 50 states to do it all. Our Secretary of transportation would allow Halliburton to own and run our roads tomorrow, if she could. (toll roads).
The fifty states would never have built one mile of Interstate!
Businesses would run the roads for a profit and ration them to us.
I tell you, these people are extremely dangerous!

mind. Yesterday you reported there are 52 states and now you acknowledge 50 states. Which is it?

If you want to insinuate that I don't know how many states there are, and you do, it is ok. It wouldn't matter if there were 49 or 53, the logic is the same, the number is in error, or has a different meaning.
Anyway what could Puerto Rico or American Samoa contribute to anything? Both are totally welfare states.

and what about other 15 territories?

-------------------------------------------

You simply don't get it, do you?
By implication, meaning is and has been that there are simply too many states, territories, etc., to manage the USA as a whole or each to his own! You know that!
We lost more lives than ever in a US war fighting for the United States---not American Samoa! (now did you understand that about American Samoa representing my meaning for all of them? Or are you a Military type? Stickler for numbers adding up, such as 2 plus 2= 5
If you count the US Supreme Court!

read "My implication" rather than "By implication"? I'm not a stickler about things adding up but, your thoughts are so scattered and rambling no one can possibly get your message. Is this your intent? For example, you state "We lost more lives than ever in a US war fighting for the United States". Are you referring to the war between the states or the war of indepence? Furthermore, how does this tie-in with American Samoa?

You might see it clearly in your mind but if you wish to convey that thought in this medium you have to be a bit clearer. Finally, what was your intention about the statement "If you count the US Supreme Court!".

-------------------------------------------

What war did we lose the most people in the uSA?

The US Supreme Court counts in Florida elections, when they overrule states rights (the FL Supreme Court). So 5/4 decisions do count as 5.

You get the message, you just don't like it!

All this crap by republicans is coming home to roost. Need that explained?

no one can understand you. You hide and wrap your thoughts in events without connection. You know that and I know that and hell, everyone else knows that. I'm not the only one that has commented about "dollar talk". You might think it's so cute but you're becoming less relevant on this board (kind of similar to what the White House recently said about President Carter). Honestly, if you want to be taken seriously you need to convey your ideas so the reader understands what you're trying to say.

I'm not in a popularity contest here, nor do I need agreement on everything, or anything.
When I see a problem with anything with which I am familiar, I say it is a problem: I don't care what party or philosophy, or if it is my friend, I still say what I think.
Hypocrites are the worst form of humanity due to the lessons they impart to children and young adults. We have more of them now than ever in my entire long life. It seems to be a way of life for many.
As to "dollar talk," I do use a great deal of satire, substitute reasoning, humor, irony, and other examples not connected to your subject, for instance. You may have to re-read some of it.
Also, this is not a place to constantly be correcting grammar--that is for editors and prudes. Especially when it is obviously done deliberately. This is conversation, not treatises!
Go ahead if you want to call Ted Kennedy a murdering drunk, and Harry Reid a squeaky idiot, I don't mind! That is your opinion, maybe!

You say this is not the place to be correcting grammer, yet you do it to other people when it suits your purposes so therefore that makes you one of those hypocrites you accuse others of being like when you say you are for the younger enlisted men in the service then turn around and call them stupid for enlisting.

I yam what I yam...Popeye

Which states are we to get rid of and why?

I yam what I yam...Popeye

Welcomr to the "you simply don't get it club". $ uses this when we don't get his convoluted logic, this is a big club.

I yam what I yam...Popeye

I think I can sell tee shirts that read "you simply don't get it". I'll advertise it in The Citizen. Perhaps one of this advertisements you see on this page.

It means you may be simple and will never get it, and if you do, you must pretend not to do so!

Name ONE who has been outright fired!
It is so rare that the jewelers keep one in their safe!

Didn't the county just fire someone high up ?

I yam what I yam...Popeye

I don't know! I asked you.
BTW, "higher up" than what?

county administrator Chris Venice was fired. Now you tell me which one is kept in the jewelers vault.

I yam what I yam...Popeye

Chris Venice (in the vault).
Assuming they get away with it without a law suit.

All that and he still didn't answer the question.

I yam what I yam...Popeye

Do I act like the current press man for Bush, Mr. Snow?
I thought that was what he does for a living!

You forgot to tell me what states we need to get rid of, and why should we?

I yam what I yam...Popeye
