  • Are you trying to trick and manipulate people on how you would like them to vote heck?

    This sounds like another fabrication from those in the media trying to dup peoples thoughts.

    When November rolls around most of the people will be voting with their pocket books.

    LOL

    T or Cal post poll statistics --- "See, everyone hates Obama, tols you. These are straight from Townhall.com!"

    Non-conservatives post poll stats --- "Those are fake numbers created by the liberal media to trick voters! They are probably working with those damn scientists!"

  • It's just a poll. Just a tiny little indicator. Put too much emphasis on it...

    and what newspaper was it that had printed the wrong winner of the presidential election?

    You did not read the whole post did you?

    You are no better than any other heckling fascit loving liberal only trying to be disruptive and change the conversation with your child like behavior.

    The Fact of the matter is that the thought of Santorum who happens to be a true conservative scares the likes of people like you and heck.

    If Santorum wins; wouldn't that be a setback for all of you occupy fascists?

    Geez, first I'm a liberal now I'm a facist. You guys just love name calling, huh?

    I've said a bunch I don't want someone in office that takes the Bible too seriously, and by equating gay sex to bestiality, I am guessing Santorum does (Plus he's a conservative). So I guess in that sense I would be a little bummed IF he won. That's a huge if too, thanks to reasons posted here that I am sure you didn't read or don't belive...

  • I suspect he's fine with gay marriage, but knows he couldn't be out front on this issue.

    But in better news:

    Riding a wave of momentum from his trio of victories on Tuesday Rick Santorum has opened up a wide lead in PPP's newest national poll. He's at 38% to 23% for Mitt Romney, 17% for Newt Gingrich, and 13% for Ron Paul.

    Part of the reason for Santorum's surge is his own high level of popularity. 64% of voters see him favorably to only 22% with a negative one. But the other, and maybe more important, reason is that Republicans are significantly souring on both Romney and Gingrich. Romney's favorability is barely above water at 44/43, representing a 23 point net decline from our December national poll when he was +24 (55/31). Gingrich has fallen even further. A 44% plurality of GOP voters now hold a negative opinion of him to only 42% with a positive one. That's a 34 point drop from 2 months ago when he was at +32 (60/28).

    Maybe he's running for governor of Massachusetts .....

  • Message to Romney, loud and clear - you get the nomination, you are pres, remember, you aren't Gov

    of Mass. land anymore. You have to be conservative, to undo all the damage that Obamao has done to our country.

  • Lol Cal.

    You're so funny.

    I'm not sure I can handle it

  • I don't think the Republican establishment is going to let Rick Santorum happen, but then again, I'm not sure the Republican establishment runs that party anymore.

    But we can dream, can't we? Yes, please, please nominate a candidate who doesn't believe in evolution, global warming, or birth control.

    Go, Rick, go.

  • What if we show Joe Sixpack that the inflation rate hasn't increased dramatically at all in the last three years? Seriously, what are you talking about? There is very little inflation in the economy right now, and there hasn't been any serious hints of inflation in the last three years.

    Here's a graph of inflation since Obama's taken office.

    In the last 100 years, our inflation rate averages about 3.38 a year. Last year it averaged 3.0 percent, or below average. In 2010, it was 1.63 percent. Also below average. In 2009, it was 2.63. Below average.

    Or as you call it, the "drastic increasing rate of inflation over the last three years."

    Also, the idea that people don't vote of social policy or other issues besides the economy is ridiculous. Voters don't vote on abortion? Wars? Gay marriage? Really?

    This has been Correcting Wingnuts With Facts. See you again next time.

  • And yes, nominating a candidate that doesn't believe in evolution will be a national embarrassment. Nominating a candidate that thinks global warming is a "hoax" will be an international embarrassment. And nominating someone who thinks birth control is wrong will be an electoral disaster.

    And you guys think that type of embarrassment is a plus. Because you're standing up for what's right!

    So seriously, go ahead. Nominate Rick Santorum. Those of us on the other side would like nothing more.

    i dont need a graph to show me inflation heck, i pay for it out of my wallet everyday and every week. groceries have doubled and gas has more than doubled.

    you can peddle yur propaganda to the dumb sheep

    lol

    science is wrong!

    polls don't show anything!

    facts are just liberal lies!

    anyone who disagrees with my is a dumb sheep!

  • It really is something, isn't it?

    It's okay. I didn't imagine that facts about inflation would change his mind about inflation. That's the hallmark of the new right, where reality is what you want it to be, and you can surround yourself with like-minded "news" sources that confirm what you already believe, and reject any source that might have actual facts.

    It's a real problem for our democracy. We're not living in the same realities anymore. It makes it tough to address problems.

  • Like this guy

  • One of O'Reilly's lowest moments. Honestly, who doesn't have at least some basic sense that the tides are caused by the pull of the moon/sun? Isn't that in 8th grade?

    Haven't we known this for about 500 years?

    At the same time, that guy is kind of a dick. Reducing all religious belief, or belief in God, into belief in a "scam" lacks a certain amount of, shall we say, understanding of religious belief. Are their religious scam artists? Of course. Are there lots of people trying to honestly wrestle with existential questions, the meaning of life, the existence of love, pain, suffering, joy, and God's place in it, or God's absence ...of course.

    Lumping them all into one category and filing it under "scam" takes a certain amount of close-mindedness.

  • Well put

    I mainly was posting that for the "How the F does the tide work" moment

    (See Mr T, I didn't swear 🙂 )

  • It is a classic.

    And was much lampooned at the time. He had to crawl in a little hole for a while.

  • Santorum now up 7 points on Romney in Michigan in the average of polls.

    This is hysterical.
