well DUH

the whole reason that Coulter and her ass buddies are voting for Hillary is so they can enjoy the ratings spike and right wing rabble rousing material that 4-8 years of a Hillary presidency would provide

and unfortunately even if McCain wins the right wing will never be marginalized, I thought the same thing when the Dems soundly spanked us in the mid-terms. except instead of

"wow, we really need to work harder at making inroads with the moderates in our party and appeal to more independent minded voters. 6 years of Bush/Cheney conservatism has really rubbed some of them the wrong way and they're defecting or sending message votes."

the prevailing spin out of the gas bags was: "we lost that election because we turned our back on our conservative principles and alienated our base."

:rolleyes:

Its extremely frustrating to have watched the Northeastern wing of the party become further and further marginalized by bombastic, self righteous demagogues from the South who 50 years ago were probably out burning crosses and denouncing the party they now speak so reverently of as nothing more then a bunch of Yankee carpet baggers.

So to all you Dems out there, you can take those guys back any time you want:biggrin:

huh? phoniness and old age strike me as fair criticisms, being a woman or being black not so much.

Doesn't McCain have an illegitimate black daughter anyway?;)

If it's Jeb Bush, consider it a done deal.

Tax Deseret Industries. More. And more. Then you will have people pissed off over half the western states. But it would be good money.

If any of the above is accurate, then removing the corporate tax just gives those owners a "free pass" from their liability in the legal sense, no?

There is nothing wrong with paying corporate taxes. In this case the government is "double dipping" because the same income stream is being taxed both at the corporate level and then again for the individual. However, my post was more geared towards tipp calling the dividend tax rate a a loopehole for the rich when anyone who makes an investment in a dividend paying stock benefits from the lower tax rate on dividends. This is especially true for many middle class seniors who now earn the majority of there income through interest and dividends.

You tell them like it IS! Because we KNOW that provision of the tax code was written mainly for the benefit of middle class seniors!

GOD BLESS you! And GOD BLESS your fight against these anti-capitalist swine!

fyi- you're not a very funny, creative or useful alias. Sorry.

Squeeze my lemon, and watch the juice run down my leg.

Bump for 2023

Oh boy, he isn’t running for Senate, because he is too old. So thats nice. Hopefully he isn’t planning a presidential run.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna104899

Fuck him right in the hole in his holy underwear.

PS. Polyass jong.

Heck of a necro bump.
That is surprisingly humble of him if he's really just retiring. Should have called out some more of his fellow Senators.

Prob a combo of getting old and polling showing him losing the primary because he went against the orangutan

I for one am so excited for the next guy these fine citizens pick for Senator.

^^^
This. I agreed with pretty much zero of Romney’s politics. But he is one of the last half way sane republicans. Chaffetz or some other Mike Lee pocket constitution fascist will take Mitts place.

A read from Romney's perspective. Interesting look (I won't get into any of my politics or thoughts, just wanted to share as a good read)

"Pick" is probably not the right word.
Gerrymander fits in there perfect for Utardia!

Utah is gerrymandered as fuck, but he’s a senator so we won’t be able to blame the future dipshit that will be elected on that. And whatever you think of Mitt Romney, I promise you the next guy is going to be 10 times worse.

Extremely sad that Mitt “strip mine and destroy struggling businesses for personal profit” Romney is considered sane.

He also strapped his dog to the roof of the family truckster for a family road trip vacation.

He eats salmon filets smothered in ketchup on hamburger buns.

Fuck everything about that momo.

All true but just goes to show how the rest of the GOP has gone completely off the rails.
