Is there anyone out there who still thinks Michelle Bachmann is not a looney?
http://digitaljournal.com/article/328902
Nope. She makes me wonder about the people who elected her. Maybe they've wised up.
Your preaching to the choir, UI, how the GOP and political right tolerate Bachman as part of their chorus is beyond me. She is a lying strumpet. I am a democrat and I have always respected Mc Cain as being a true American hero in war or peace. He is not afraid to call anyone out even on his side if he or she is out of line, relative to that Romney is saffron yellow.
The ovnly thing I don't like about him is what I consider his idea of an overzealous militaristic foreign policy.
I pretty much agree with this. I've always had a lot of respect for McCain, and I was an ardent supporter in 2008. His "hawkishness" did concern me, however. As for personal convictions and the fortitude to express them, though, Romney pales in comparison to JM.
I'm a democrat, and I've always like McCain... I think he is probably a good person. I'm glad he stood up for what he believes and what is right for the USA.
This sounds exactly like when McCain stood up against the inflammatory Tea Partiers attracted to his campaign by Sarah Palin. The subject of their hate at the time was Barack Obama.
He comes across as reasonable, rational and honorable.
Something that has been missing of late in Congress (or at least the Congress that gets media coverage).
+1 John McCain
Sorry, UW - I started a thread about this, too, before I saw yours. Great minds...lol.

If an individual cannot perfectly master himself how does he expect that government will perfectly master itself. In Federalist #51 James Madison wrote, "If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government...

when will JOHN MCCAIN stand up and lead the Republican party?

Would the same outrage still exist? Or did Obama's presidency ignite the flame?I tend to think that Obama being elected certainly was fuel on the fire -- that is to say, the Tea Party would not be as big or popular if John McCain was president. Much more people would be too complacent simply...

What do you think of this "factoid":Every Democratic president since Jimmy Carter left a smaller deficit than he inherited (including Obama).Every Republican president since Dwight Eisenhower left a bigger one.Does this: annoy you, anger you, surprise you?Discuss!
