    Once again, your unsupported personal opinions are at odds with demonstrable reality, but you have exhibited that allegiance to fantasy repeatedly, a telltale sign of the TP.

    The truth will you get pissy, but TPs have been the bane of Boehner's tenure, and TPs are an unpopular, largely regional, phenomenon of bitter White geezers.

    Allow me to magnanimously offer you enlightenment on both counts. Your churlish responses are merely begrudging concessions, after all.

    It's a novelty when we get to see TP airy-fairy notions as actualities, which is why I applaud the cautionary Red State Model.

    The TP movement is not bound by party affiliation, but is primarily part of the R party. the R party is more "big tent" than the D party, so open disagreement is understandable.

    Whether a bill passed thru Congress is total Boehner approved or TP influenced, the D Senate isn't going to pass it due to most of the D Senators being unpatriotic, unconstitutional idiots.:roll:

    The Republicans have a clown tent. And people are leaving in pine boxes because the old and stupid angry white dudes are dying off and not drawing the next generation of voters aligning with their causes.
    People in the 18-36 year old demographic are generally for government to be more proactive in helping to keep the economy growing, job growth on the uptick, and to reduce poverty. Younger voters are looking more and more like New Deal Democrats, the kind that got you your Medicare and Social Security, than they did 20 years ago.

    Plus, more people of color are making up the ranks of voters. The GOP is screwed by alienating AfricanAmerican and Hispanic voters. LOL

    Spoken like a true, Kool-Aid drinking liberal! If people are alienated by our Constitution and Amendments, and by our laws, so be it.

    The only ones who seem to be alienated by the Constitution are the Kook-Aid drinking right wing nuts. It's like their ideology disallows them from reading the US Constitution with understanding.

    Not really, every young up and comer i talk to hates liberals. They are more Ron Paul free market supporters than anything else. I think the poor economy sunk all the potential democrats along with a major focus on social issues which none of them seem to care about. Most are more concerned that they might have to live with there parents and work at a gas station to pay school loans after they graduate from college.

    better keep bringing in those illegals because your going to need them. The youth vote and mother vote are not going to be favorable for the dems this time around.

    So your views are to believed in more than public polling saying the opposite? How large is your respondent group? How are the questions posed? What's your margin of error?

    Immigrants under the proposed Dream Act, if it's passed this year, wouldn't be able to vote until 2026 at the earliest. The long game is working against you. I'll admit the shorter game the GOP have made gerrymandering work for them. But the youth vote was disastrous for the GOP the last few election cycles. And it's getting worse. And the way the right is dismissive of women, I don't think you should put too much stock in women voting GOP, as they are the ones who have to put less food on the table from GOP policies.

    youth vote was discouraged by bush and still believed the MSM. Thats all changed now.

    dont get to excited about polling. conservatives as a whole tend to not participate. I dont know a single person who does.

    I didnt say the GOP would get all the women vote. they will however get the mother vote other than the welfare queens who use baby delivery as a source of income. every mother i know want there kids to be able to find work someday. Thats just not happening with democrats. They are also really concerned about all these illegals being thrown into public schools with their children.

    Here you go:

    * St. Thomas Aquinas cited a point after conception, the "quickening," as the moment at which the life in the womb becomes human, (meaning ensouled with a rational human soul.)

    I'm just a little saddened by this. If he doesn't run, he will be missed from the 2016 clown show and what's a circus without all of the clown? :icon_jawdrop:

    The libs indict Perry for legally doing his job, but the Libs everywhere give Obama a pass for not doing his! What a joke! It's also a lib pattern to lie and embellish negative things about a candidate they are threatened by.

    I'm still waiting for an apology from those who voted for Obama

    Please hold your breath.

    You'll just have to bask in the afterglow of your Willard Landslide!, I'm afraid.

    Even if you throw a tantrum, most of the American electorate is not going to beg you to forgive them for electing their moderate, mediocre leader.


    (Of course, that does not apply to the Worst-Educated States, but there just aren't enough of them to keep you happy.)

    A grand jury picked from a pool or citizens indicted Perry. You don't know that they were Liberal. Obama is doing his job despite right wing obstructionism

    Obama doing his job? What a crock! Has he shaved a couple of strokes off his golf score?:roll:

    The Rs in Congress have been totally blocked by the Senate Ds, no doubt due to Obama's orders. Fact!

    You can continue being proud of Obama who was reelected because he lied about Obamacare and Benghazi! Pathetic!

    I don't know what's going on with McDonald but Christie is not out of the woods yet, he's just acting like he is. The Federal prosecutor is not going away.

    Palin and Bachman are all washed up. Not worth discussing. And Bachman did face questions about the use of campaign funds which contributed to he deciding not to run for reelection. They are both quitters and loosers

    NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie took into office promising "a new era of accountability and transparency." Yet after he won a second term last year and as he explores a run for president, his administration stands accused of routinely stonewalling even the most basic requests for public records.

    Attorneys involved in lawsuits filed in search of public records say they have seen a spike in the number of such cases in the past six months.

    The lawyers, along with media organizations and watchdog groups, also say they have received more arbitrary justifications for the denial of requests made under New Jersey's open records law, as well as an increased willingness by the state attorney general's office to fight such requests in court.

    There is no secrecy in the public sector.

    Of course, despite your hysterical raving, I have never suggested that I am "proud" of the twice-elected, moderate, mediocre President, but, as a patriotic American, I am ashamed of the alienated TP pantywaists who incessantly whine about the American electorate and those they elect.

    Your deranged version of "the truth", as promulgated by right wing media entertainers, may get America's dissidents wee wee'd up, but realistic moderates predominate.

    That is why Americans accord a mediocre president national support in the low 40s vs peevish TPs in the low 20s.
