banning gabbneb = constitutional amendment

Let me put it a different way: Paul is a zealot. His brand of libertarianism may have some useful ideas to contribute, and maybe some elements of it will be incorporated into public policy at some future date, but I think someone who's so convinced of the purity and righteousness of his own position, who is so impervious to any sort of opposing viewpoint, and who swallows whole-hog some decidedly fringe-y theories (forgetting the racial stuff, what about his views on the gold standard?) is just not temperamentally suited for the highest executive position in the country.

Not an executive order?! What's the point of being POTUS if you can't just ban gabbnebb?

I read that this morning. What exactly should she be saying? By all means be a tub o'lard like Sensenbrenner? Also, commenting on FLOTUS's ass is probably nagl.

so Sensenbrenner says you're fat / well I ain't down with that
― aesthetic partisan (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 22 December 2011 20:48 (twelve years ago) link
this idea that right wingers have that Michelle Obama is fat is so bizarre. Really a good case study in delusion.
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 22 December 2011 21:16 (twelve years ago) link
Not that she's fat -- she's a hypocrite for telling us to exercise while eating at Circus Burger or whatever.
― Lord Sotosyn, Thursday, 22 December 2011 22:06 (twelve years ago) link
that's not hypocritical

Nothing wrong with a little exercise, she's planted a white house garden, etc etc

I agree with Pareene's take that guys like gingrinch don't give a shit about getting elected, they're just on a well-covered book tour.

i think i am more willing to believe gingrich is egocentric & delusional - so thinks he could, might be president - more than that he is cynical (at least wrt using it as a boost)

for those interested in politics/nat'l affairs and are on twitter, i strongly encourage you to read the "ron paul newsletter" (rp_newsletter) feed. real quotes from ron paul's newsletters. eye-opening if you haven't carefully reviewed his poisonous newsletters.

example below, in reverse order:
Ron Paul Newsletter @RP_Newsletter -- But Al, the Statue of Liberty? Next time, hold that demonstration at a food stamp bureau or a crack house.______________________________Ron Paul Newsletter @RP_Newsletter -- Hmmm. I hate to agree with the Rev. Al, but maybe a name change is in order. Welfaria? Zooville? Rapetown? Dirtburg? Lazyopolis?______________________________Ron Paul Newsletter @RP_Newsletter -- ...demanding that New York be renamed Martin Luther King City "to reclaim it for our people."______________________________ Ron Paul Newsletter @RP_Newsletter -- A mob of black demonstrators, led by the "Rev." Al Sharpton, occupied & closed the Statue of Liberty recently...______________________________Ron Paul Newsletter @RP_Newsletter -- (headline) KING CITY?

best news regarding ron paul's fall -- btw, ron paul is not a serious candidate -- is that, perhaps relatedly, gingrich is getting an uptick in iowa (538 poll) and maybe elsewhere.
