of those two ex-Democrats, I think Lieberman is the more Republican
Has Roemer been allowed on the stage at even one of their clown-car debates?

Unfortunately for the right, that Soshulist Obama won’t be able to choose Stalin’s daughter, who lived in Wisconsin, as his running mate in 2012.

I read somewhere, months ago, that Roemer had NOT been invited to any of the clown car demolition derbies, even though he claimed to have met the qualifications for them, as in ponying up some cash.
Whatever. Mentioning that sanctimonious prick who is the Senator for a bunch of racist west bank settlers is damning enough.

Is this an open thread?
Why is anyone, especially the “pundents” all over high-paid news tv, pretending Herman Cain didn’t look anything at all except a guilty man pleading with his wife in a public forum not to believe the ‘friend’ rumors were anything other than that for all those years? However unfortunate and remorseful i may be, i know most men know that feeling the first time you are caught cheating and aren’t ready to admit it yet, especially these news folk. Yet no one, even the women commentators, is stating out loud how he looked and what words he choose to use.
Its painfully obvious, and i’d feel pity if not for blatant obviousliness of it all.

@mark:
Whatchu talkin’ ’bout? What happened?
Also, too, Roehmer? Who?

i just got home from work, i assumed this was news from today. cain just said a woman will accuse him of a 13 year affair and that he thought she was a friend, and that he’ll stay in the race as long as his wife is behind him. it was a pathetic plea to his wife to believe him, shamefully in public, and no one is questioning it. they all are pretending “who knows which side is telling the truth” crap, then i’m now watching john king do everything to avoid asking newt about his affairs. Its infuriating, i mean, IOIYAR

O/T but perhaps DougJ-bait. 1) Thiessen writes something ignorant, stupid and vapid in the Kaplan Daily (OWS caused Supercommittee to fail). 2) Commenters piss in Thiessen’s cornflakes, with vigor. 3) I kan haz amused.

well jeebus, this thread’s been stomped to shit already, within what, 15 minutes? I’ll try to repost my complaint in the next official “open thread” when it comes around, it’ll never catch a convo here

@trollhattan: Fuck I hate that torture apologist asshole.

Always thought Buddy was getting the cold shoulder because he wasn’t crazy enough. But now that he’s mentioning the Lieb, gotta revise the crazy level.
Also, as only a former racist – as any semi-sentient Southern white guy pol is these days – he probably didn’t have enough current day deranged hate going for him. He’s a fairly charming interview. Not dumb. Has experience and ideas. Which could also be part of his non “legitimacy” for debate.
I’ve been wondering if their running out of NotRomneys was going to get Buddy his chance to be the guy that wins the brokered, we need a not-Romney Very White Knight convention

Buddy who?

Probably the best offer Droopy Dog will ever get, I think he should take it.
(does any sane person want to be seen in public w/ Droopy Dog?)
