Leave the best for last, right?
Wtf – why a -1? Here, Twinespc, I'll get ya back to 0.
Damned trolls coming in here and messing with our ratings.
Let's hear more about how Obama is like Tiger Woods — best at his job, probably the best there ever was.
2010 is going to be a very good year, it will mark a historic moment when the people roll out the the Contract FROM America.
I generally disagree with everything you say, but in this case I too gave you a +1, even though as I have come to know from your posts I believe your remark is dripping with sarcasm.
CPAC is going to be mixed with a-holes and a-listers. I have been encouraged with many of those who have spoken. Some though are just adept at telling the crowd what it wants to hear when in truth they are some of the lame RINOs who are part of the problem.
Bottom line: there is a genuine enthusiasm of the crowd that has the libs worried. And unfortunately I do feel sorry for the african american community that the first black man to become president was such a sorry excuse for an american.
The only thing missing from CPAC is the white hoods. Every other piece of ugliness is on full display.
Except, of course, Palin. Where the heck was she? Was it that CPAC couldn't afford the $100,000 speaking fee?
Hey twinespc, just a reminder I'm gonna work my tail off to elect conservatives and defeat Democrat/liberals, but we have to make the media accountable and let them know we're on to them because you know they're gonna campaign for Obama again. I'll give you a plus because I'm a big Glenn Beck fan.
Talk to me this time next year, maybe we can blame you when we're all going hungry?
"We the people"….are eyes wide open!
Who's bright idea was it to have Patriot Act Ashcroft speak on Civil Liberty? And when is supporting a $708bn DoD budget being fiscally conservative?
Wake Up GOP – Listen to the Doctor… For the PEOPLE not the Party!
he isn't black he is mulatto.
Talk to me next year when 1929 looks like a rose garden compared to next year! Our government will not any money so that another FDR can say "let them try to take away this Social Security check in the future!" He's dead, so we won't be "after" him, will we? We should only be after our dead beat, useless "selves," shouldn't we? We'll share what is left of our resources next year, or all die. It's going to become that bad. Watch!
Ron Paul shouldn't be allowed to be there. He's a nutcase just like his son Rand. Beck should be interesting. I watched Limbaugh the last time and he was great.
There have been a few conversions lately. They may be transitory conversions, but they're evidence of people having doubts and starting to think.
You mean we don't need 100,000+ military personnel holding the fort down in Japan and South Korea?
Are you saying we don't need military personnel sitting around waiting for the Mississippi to flood so they can go on sandbag detail?
Are you saying that it's wrong to allow the government to ramsack through a house without a search warrant?
The differences between patriotism and nationalism are profound.
To all Conservatives, Libertarians, Independents,and yes even Liberals who have seen the Light.
Battle Stations……Battle Stations…General Quarters…This is Not a Drill.
"The only thing missing from CPAC is the white hoods."
Yeah, Robert 'Kleagle' Byrd was using them all. You need to go read some history to find out who the Klan was. You do read, don't you?
I like Ann Coulter- he makes me proud to be hating Muslims.
Sounds like a plan victor – so when the economy comes back, you might actually get yourself a job and then guess what, you'll be able to go buy yourself some food! Sorry the whole entitlement gig might dry up on you but don't worry, working will be good for you, might make you feel like a man again ~
The trolls are angry today. I think they fear they have lost their place in taking over the world….I love how many speakers at CPAC are not holding back on the jokes and truth. PC is death!
No to Obamacare, illegal aliens, cap and trade, failed progressive policies of the left and despotism. Yes to Constitutionally-backed government and rule of law, sound fiscal policies and private oversight of ALL federal agencies to roll back the above. Anything less and we are through.
Tell that to Jack Nicklaus.
Ron Paul – total nut job
C'mon lil trolls, go ahead and give me the thumbs down – you do realize that the thumbs have no effect on anything that is written, don't you? It seems a pitiful waste of time to go around and worry about thumbs, how about you take that energy and go read, learn, engage in a healthy conversation with someone who isn't in your college dorm – might learn something!
I agree StoryKeeper, it is sad to think the first African American President has to be such a drone for the left.
Have you noticed that the libs are becoming more and more forthright about the racist views they harbor? For some reason they think that they can share the hatred and find themselves welcome amongst conservatives. It's actually a sad thing to see.
Racist.
It is all they have left to use ~ rather pathetic since none of us here engage in playing the worn out beat to shit useless race card.
Thank God, PC is a crucial piece in the demise of this country's greatness -
I didn't say anything racist, i was merely pointing out that Obama is mulatto, not black, not white, not mestizo, not asian.
I don't understand why you are calling me a racist.
Too funny.
Palin's grandson is on government run health insurance. Flippin hilarious.
And taxpayer paid for as well.
That's right. Palin. Grandson. Sucking off the taxpayer teat!
God you people are stupid.
Good thing we don't live in your America.
my my how these libs love to throw the kk around when in fact it was the dem party who wanted slavery the rep party got rid of it evere hear of abe l also the dems are the ones who started the kkk ,now the dems enslave people via welfare also it shte libs who admire comm you know van jones dunn ect so your remarks are as empty as your cic head
your proof that lib heads are exploding and you cant deal with it
Oh Please, Sober Up. Or have a drink or something.
"Let's hear more about how Obama is like Tiger Woods"
Presenting a false front to the world……………..Fxcking everybody behind our backs.
How's that?
Yeah we need some good jokes. I heard one. Pelosi, Dingy Harry and Mr Obama were riding a donkey on a trail in the Grand Canyon to look over their property. The donkey slipped and they all went over the cliff, ok. The question is Who Got Saved?
THE COUNTRY GOT SAVED.
Tell me the truth if you can. Does Axelrod pay you by the post or the character? How many posts do you have to make to get to the minimum wage? C'mon Bertha fess up! We know it is you!!!
Umm… you you to wait 3 more years before any real comparisons can be made. But it's already glaringly obvious what a trainwreck the man is.
Seriously, man up and get an actual login name that can be followed. You lib anon types are such cowards.
“When freedom is attacked a powerful movement will rise up and fight back,” Pawlenty said.
Speaking just an hour before Tiger Woods went before cameras to make a public apology about his infidelity including a vigorous defense of his wife, Pawlenty encouraged CPAC attendees to take a cue from Woods’ wife, Elin, who Pawlenty described as finally saying ‘no more’ to Tiger.
He said conservatives “should take a 9-iron and smash the window out of the big government in this country.”
He attacked President Obama for government spending saying that if spending were an Olympic sport he’d be a “repeat gold medalist.”
Pawlenty also attacked Obama for his position on the handling of the underwear bomber’s attempted plot.
“Mr. President, no more apology tours and no more giving Miranda rights to terrorists,” Pawlenty said.
The governor attributed the Republican Party’s rising poll numbers to their "bold" and "direct" message, but he also had a message for his fellow Republicans if the 2010 elections return his party to power.
“This time, we need to do what we say we’re going to do,” Pawlenty said
Well, if she asks for help if the program weren't available….We'll chip in and help her out personally, after she gets some help from her church and we'll pay the balance… Mind contributing.?.
Arnold Palmer and Sam Snead would like to chime in as well.
Yea, that's the bad news…the good news is it's only gonna get worse for them
LOL
If you can afford to buy a computer and internet connection, you can afford food. I'm not buying into your "victim" routine. Get a job.
Please post a link. I've been trying several keywords and can't find anything.
I have a few suspicions here but unlike liberals who believe things based on emotion I actually like to research the issue before I make judgements.
I'm still waiting to find out myself.
Nah this would be the FCC czar cutting the checks.
Let us take back the government from the corporatist who have had control for the last 30 + years!!!
Sure, lokobos, thanks for asking.
Here you go.

And here are the court documents.

"God you people are stupid'
hehehehehe
A smart person would come up with a new insult after fifty posts, that all you got nitwit?
Shhhhh, I hear yo momma calling fro you….little troll person, go home now
Btw, here's a funny joke.
What's the liberal counterpart to CPAC?
Late-night TV.
"“This time, we need to do what we say we’re going to do,” Pawlenty said "

Yeah, and who will trust you?
You had 8 f**king years already.
He needs to go Libs Anonymous and work thru the steps and find a higher power.
Thank you for the links. It looks like Tripp is on Alaska State run health care, which is not the same as Federal Health care. Just to clarify, we don't have nearly as much issue with state health care provisions as we do with the idea of a mandatory federal scenario.
This also looks like a childcare lawsuit against Levi, which I would guess that if Bristol is going after Levi for childcare payments and he hasn't been keeping up his end of the bargain that the state automatically takes up the slack since the issue is in the courts. Add that Tripp is at least 1/4 native alaskan and the pieces start to fall together.
So your original assertion appears to be false, but when simplified as in your original post it makes for a great soundbite.
You know people don't like to be called "liars" so lets just say Benedict Beck is a great "Deceiver" – that's not as harsh as "liar: – right?
This illustrates his pattern of deception http://joerobertson.com/liberty/glennbeck-what-ar...
The Beck Deception
[...] CPAC: Conservatives Get Ready For Battle from Big Government by Sergio Gor [...]
No, what we had was a progressive Republican in G.W.Bush, not a conservative. That is a fact, and that is why we Republicans are going to bring Real change in 2010. With Conservative values and know how with the same steps that Ronald Reagan took, you know why? They worked…
Don't forget Palin is a "commie" that redistributes money from the oil companies to the residents of Alaska!
COMMIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very popular program with conservatives, too.
You mean the father doesn't have to pay anything?
How was W. different from Reagan?
Dailykos? Is this guy serious? Might as well get your news from Perez Hilton.
To be accurate the dems started adding their own flavor of pollution in 2007. Remember Pelosi was going to 'drain the sawmp'. I agree that the republicans were almost as liberal spenders as are the dems which is why we need a whole new crew. No more re-treads!! What we need is simple: Integrity, Smaller government, lower taxes, an end to union corruption and influence, and for god sake stop spending our way to destitution. I do not want our country to look like the socialistically planned community of Detroit to become our norm. The Wealth of a nation is not built through its equal division. Hard work needs to be rewarded, slackers need to be penalized and the 'truely needy' need a hand up, not a hand out.
So your original assertion appears to be true, but when simplified as in your original post it makes for a great soundbite however it is not nearly the scandal you make it out to be.
Shocking. Even when they find something remotely true they can't help but mangle it.
Anyone noticing a similarity between "anon" and the cretin known as "jharp" who was posting awhile back? Okay, the "God you people are stupid" line is the only exact similarity, but "anon" seems to be seizing upon the same sort of arguments jharp does while infesting a blog comments section.
Obama probably put the underwear , from the Undie Bomber into the Dali Lama's trash bags.
Quit projecting, Theresa.
Was wondering when you would show up, but find you are very consistent in your anti-semetic message. I can appreciate that in a twisted sort of way. At least you don't pretend to be anything other than what you are.
"Dailykos? Is this guy serious?"
No you idiot. The court document makes it quite clear.
Palin. Grandson. Sucking off the taxpayer teat.
Reagan was a conservative. Bush was a Progressive. Big difference between the two.
Why do you fly the flag of a foreign terrorist country that has attacked the US?
I see that your reading comprehesion skills were gained from a public school.
"It looks like Tripp is on Alaska State run health care, which is not the same as Federal Health care"
And please let me know how Palin, who earned $100,000 last week, can justify taxpayers paying for her grandson's health insurance? Both of the parents are able bodied adults capable of work. And Grandma is a millionaire.
She's nothing but a fraud. And a moron.
The best for last…. not today there twinny….
The best will be left for next November.. wait till you hear that main speaker
And you were doing so well. I take back the nice things I said about you.
D. I believe you had that argument torn to shreds in another thread the other night.
Why can't all Conservative be like Ron Paul: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlCb-nGCwyA&fe...
?
Why did you give us Reagan, Bush's, and now try to shove Palin out of your butt?
Used the B.A.U. (Behavioral Assessment Unit). I figured out where Anon went to school.
It's called: the Special High Intensity Training school. Commonly known as S.H.I.T.
You see, S.H.I.T. is good! 1,000,000 flies can't be wrong. Once, they graduate from S.H.I.T. they get a degree in S.C.A.B. Whereby they become a "brick" in the Marxist Wall, and told that they are of no value unless they become joined into the socialist wall by forming a group, and graduate "Grand Groupie or Prof of Group- Think. SCAB = Socialist, Capitalist, Atheist Brotherhood.. Their Weapon of Choice is The Lie.
Good 1 twinespc, I got a giggle………….but you shot my horse right out from under me on my post I
was about to make. It was something to the effect…….., Would you ever see the libs / progs having a
convention, on C Span for all the world to see?
Did you know the human head weighs 11 pounds?
True conservative approach to candidates, Rick Perry – Non/Conservative and Beck wants to french kiss him — give me a break Rupert Murdoch — follow the dots — Beck is a plant at Fox everything this man says is FALSE !!! He can rant and rave about Alinsky – who cares? Anyone knows Alinsky already – but lets hear him speak the truth – CFR, Trillateral Commission, Bilderberg – he never will
Oh Kona, you are clearly upset that Beck asked your lil favorite Medina a question she answered, without really answering ya know, that you didn't like – sucks to be you.
First you beg Beck to have her on, when it didn't work out the way you hoped, you turn on him. Charming
You should have been aborted. We'll keep Tripp
dont they already?
Anon is getting paid with Euro-credits.
"Well, if she asks for help if the program weren't available….We'll chip in and help her(Palin) out personally"
You teabagging morons paid her $100,000 LAST WEEK. She's a millionaire you idiot.
God you people are stupid.
Finally, there is HOPE for our COnstitutional REpublic…. But like Newt said, we must thank Obama, his One term might give the Country another Leader just like Carter ( I almost miss that Dud) gave us REagan!!!
Hurrah!!!
"Shocking. Even when they find something remotely true they can't help but mangle it."
What did I mangle?
Plain's grandson is on government run tax payer paid for health insurance.
God you people are stupid.
You really are making that up aren't you??? Or a new hearing aid with the ability to actually understand what Pence said is what you need… be honest!
or carbon credits. the libs have alot of those to get rid of while they still can.
James Traficant (Ohio Congressman) see why he was sent away for 7 years
You make a claim there anon….
lokobos asks for proof….
you give him the links….
lokobos interprets them correctly….and deflates your claims
and you come back and call Palin a fraud….
can you please post your link to reality so we can verify your sanity
Patty… Does it really make a difference what they call themselves?????
good catch there though.
AIPAC
Yes and they are bat-sh*t insane.

Do I really need to spell it out? Come on now Johnny, I can't be the first one who's pointed out to you that whenever you're on the board you're one of the first to start getting into race. Your posts make it so clear that it's always lurking in your consciousness. You can't expect me to cite all of the past examples but if you look through some of your comments you'll figure it out. Don't you wonder why you always score low points?
I mean, just look at this post right here ^^. You're saying that somehow Obama shouldn't feel comfortable in black or white society, that he's completely alienated from mestizo and Asian communities. You're asserting that his race is his identity and because he doesn't meet your "purist" standards he's somehow different than all of us, someone out of unity.
If you start thinking objectively before you post you'll start seeing what I mean. I don't think you really desire to be a racist, it's just you haven't honestly considered that you are.
Wow, you convinced me.
Here's a hint: mentioning some legislations would be nice.
And how is Obama different from Carter???????
Yeah, and who was that Ashcroft in the second video saying we were attacked and should respond. So, doesn't that apply to others when we have been attacking THEM. They are pretending we were attacked for no reason and that is a lie. These fake conservatives don't seem to get that if Americans don't want the government in their lives, why would non-Americans want our government in their lives.
With or Without the Air?
That was the biggest piece of crap I've forced myself to read – it was incoherent and double/triple layer with so much garbage it was insane. If you Joe, believe our government had a hand in the 9/11 terrorist act, then you are entitled to that opinion. I don't share it with you nor do I believe that Beck stating he doesn't either, makes him or I a deceiver.
As for the rest of that long winding nightmare of an article, it sounds like spinning at it's finest.
