Conservative Blogger Poll: Who Should the GOP Choose as its Nominee in 2016
AoSHQ was not part of this particular Kool Konservative Bloggers Poll so you'll have to send your pipe bombs and cobras to someone else this time. :-)
Here are the top 10:
1) Which of the following candidates would you most prefer to see as the GOP's 2016 candidate?
1) Marco Rubio (FL Senator) 20.5% (16 votes)
2) Rand Paul (KY Senator) 14.1% (11 votes)
3) Scott Walker (WI Governor) 11.5% (9 votes)
4) Bobby Jindal (LA Gov) 9% (7 votes)
4) Paul Ryan (WI Congressman. VP candidate) 9% (7 votes)
6) Jeb Bush (Former Fl Governor) 6.4% (5 votes)
6) Sarah Palin (Former AL Governor. VP candidate) 6.4% (5 votes)
8 ) Mike Pence (IN Governor) 5.1% (4 votes)
9) Susana Martinez (NM Governor) 3.8% (3 votes)
10) Chris Christie (NJ Governor) 2.6% (2 votes)
And then you have the bottom 10 :
3) If the list were narrowed down to the following 10 candidates, then which one would you **** LEAST LIKE **** to see as our 2016 nominee?
1) Chris Christie (NJ Governor) 32.5% (25 votes)
2) Jeb Bush (Former Fl Governor) 26% (20 votes)
3) Rand Paul (KY Senator) 14.3% (11 votes)
4) Scott Walker (WI Governor) 11.7% (9 votes)
5) Paul Ryan (WI Congressman. VP candidate) 5.2% (4 votes)
6) Susana Martinez (NM Governor) 3.9% (3 votes)
7) Brian Sandoval (NV Governor) 2.6% (2 votes)
8 ) Bob McDonnell (VA Governor) 1.3% (1 votes)
9) Marco Rubio (FL Senator) 1.3% (1 votes)
10) Bobby Jindal (LA Gov) 1.3% (1 votes)
So doing the differential math it looks like it's gonna be Marco Rubio/Bobby Jindal in 2016.
Let the pre-criminations begin!
A Physician on ObamaCare: Patients Ask Me to Break the Law
ObamaCare guarantees everyone an annual 'free exam' but that's it - and it would be illegal to ask about anything else during the same visit.
If you are here for that annual exam, you will not be covered if you want to discuss any new ailment or unstable condition. I cannot bait and switch to another code - that's illegal. We, the physicians, are audited all the time and can lose our license for insurance fraud.You, the patient, will then have to make a decision.
Do you want your "free" yearly exam, or do you want to pay for a visit which is coded for a particular, new problem? You can have my "free" exam if you only discuss what Obamacare wants me to discuss.
...On top of all of that, doctors will be obligated - that's right, obligated - to talk to you about things you may have no interest or need to talk about.
You may just want to have a pap smear or check your cholesterol. However, I am now mandated by the government to talk to you about your weight, exercise, family life, smoking, sexual abuse(!), and even to ask if you wear seat belts. And I am mandated to record your answers.
I am a physician. But I need to tell you to wear a seat belt and then record your answer.
Elections have Consequences: No More Student Loan Deductions for You
It turns out that the Bush Tax Cuts For The RichTM also let a lot of people deduct their student loan interest. But that will be going away come Jan. 1st:
It appears that along with reducing taxes on rich people (those making more than $250,000 per year), allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire at the end of the year is going to have a bunch of other interesting effects, including: "The student loan interest deduction will be disallowed for hundreds of thousands of families."
...Which means a lot of Obama voters -- people that bought into Obama's "soak the rich" rhetoric -- who have been able to deduct the first $2,500 of student loan interest from their federal income taxes -- are going to lose that deduction if they are more than five years into their loans.
Well if you bought the Obama ticket, then enjoy the Obama economic ride.
The poverty rate is about to shoot up and permanently stay there. Why? Because it's going to be graded on the curve which guarantees there will always be an 'impoverished' 10%.
Now, a family of four with full medical insurance, living in Oakland, can be considered "poor" if its yearly pre-tax income is below $42,500. In Washington, DC, the figure is $40,300; in Boston, $39,500; in New York, $37,900.Remarkably, for the first time these new poverty thresholds are linked to an "escalator" that will boost them faster than inflation year after year. The income thresholds will rise automatically in direct proportion to any rise in the actual living standards of the average American.
While the old poverty measure counted absolute purchasing power (how much steak and potatoes you can buy), the new measure counts comparative purchasing power (how much steak and potatoes you can buy relative to other people.)
Are the Five Stages of Grief All BS?
By now most people are familiar with the Kübler-Ross five stages of grief. But it turns out that there's very little evidence that it's true:
The idea that grief has specific stages is a popular belief and was given its most professional gloss by the Swiss psychiatrist Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, who is often cited as suggesting that mourners pass through stages of denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. ...But regardless of how accurately her ideas were used, the evidence for these stages evaporates under scrutiny - perhaps unsurprising considering they were based on little more than casual observation and creative thinking.
In contrast, psychologist George Bonanno has studied the course of grief by following people from before they were bereaved to months and even years afterwards. It turns out that there is little evidence for a progression through specific stages of adjustment, and even the belief that most people are plunged into despair and gradually "get better" turns out to be little more than cliché. This is not to say that sadness isn't a common response to loss, but an experience of deep debilitating anguish tends to be the exception rather than the rule. In fact, two-thirds of people are resilient in the face of losing a loved one - in other words, they are sorrowful but they are neither depressed nor disabled by their experience.
America's Most Embarrassing Addresses
So I'm guessing there was an unfortunately incident involving a cleaning implement in this area. At least if Lake Havasu follows Australian Naming Rules.
Regularly scheduled parades without absolute control of the air are just asking for a hostile visit.
"This is June 1942 and the real dark days of war for the French and this was to demonstrate that the Germans weren't invincible."Wg Cdr Gatward was chosen for the sortie as he had demonstrated a skill for accurate flying during low-level attacks on enemy positions after Dunkirk.
The British had been informed the Germans held daily parades down the Champs-Elysees and he was asked to strafe the parade.
He and his navigator, Flight Sergeant George Fern, took off from Thorny Island, near Portsmouth, on June 12.
After reaching Paris, he flew at just 30ft before Ft Sgt released the flag down the flare shute and over the Arc de Triomphe.
Mr Grinter said: "It is an amazing story - one of those that makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.
"He flew down the Champs-Elysees at second floor window height. It was an incredible act of bravery and a real audacious attack.
"He attacked the Gestapo HQ and SS troops were seen to run for their lives. As he turned for home the Germans came out and shook their fists at him.
5 Things Nobody Tells You About Living in Japan
Well my experience living in Japan almost two decades ago and visiting in the last few years pretty much matches what the Cracked writer says. Japan has a weird mix of high and low-tech - so people may walk around with gadgets more advanced than anything in the US yet most business is done with old-school faxes and involves quite a lot of paper-work. And public wi-fi and on-line forms for most services are extremely rare.
And then you have the national utter lack of decent heating systems in a country whose climate is essentially the same as the US eastern seaboard.
You can pick up an electric AC/heater, if you feel like throwing down hundreds of dollars to pay for both the unit and the required professional installation, but even then it's only enough to cover one room. The Japanese simply do not heat more than one or two places in the entire house -- they never have, and they aren't likely to start before you move here. Your only other option is a kerosene heater, which you can't really leave running overnight unless you're trying to burn and/or suffocate your family to death. Of course, having one also means keeping several cans of kerosene around the house at all times, so the "burning" thing may eventually happen on its own.
But Japanese blogger AMPONTAN disagrees.

Those rethuglicans are all extreme conservatives. The only rethuglican that is really acceptable is Olympia Snowe. She's the only one that can save the party from the tea party extremists that now run it. Snowe has bravely decried the fierce partisanship that now rules D.C. Snowe is a stateswoman and could easily win the presidency.
*until she's actually nominated- then we'll tear her apart like we did McCain*

The Beltway Buttmunch party establishment have already made it crystal clear that they don't give one slender goddamn what "conservative bloggers" think.
In 2008, McCain was the last place choice in polls of conservative bloggers. The Beltway GOP establishment promptly ignored the scruffy bloggers, threw their weight behind McCain, secured the nomination for him, and watched him lose.
In 2012, Romney was the last place choice in polls of conservative bloggers. The Beltway GOP establishment promptly ignored the scruffy bloggers, threw their weight behind Romney, secured the nomination for him, and watched him lose.
You can draw the trend line on this as well as I can.
Want to stop losing and start winning?
First step is to change the Beltway GOP establishment. First step in effecting that change? Firing John Boehner.
And then firing a bunch of other do-nothings who have proven themselves to be ineffectual election losers.

Exactly. I don't remember who it is who decided that the two conditions were close enough to use K-R steps for but I think they've probably made a lot of people's lives harder by creating the idea of a "right" way to grieve. By now though, it's "common knowledge" that the process is for grief, and I doubt that can be fixed.

So, when last I left you, on Sat. Eve's ONOT, #2 was caught drinking, and Mrs. was not happy. The "slight punishments" are in effect, and we are semi-normalized, again.
-
But, there is this: We had to put - our 11 year old, supreme, can't be topped, beloved, mutt, 'Fat' Ralph - down in March. It was miserable, and we all cried like babies. I can't even tell you. He was the BEST dog. After a couple of months of tragic mourning (and looking for him every time I came through the door, and momentarily saving bones, before that gut-punching realization set in, and the like), I had broached the possibility of getting 'another'. This was shot down immediately, with extreme prejudice, but I, being a hard-headed-moron, kept up a semi-relentless campaign. Mrs. was resolute that we were NOT going to get another anytime soon. And, don't play cards with her because she is a stone-cold, ghost-faced, killah...

Look to them to do the same thing Apple,etc is doing. Setting up rights off shore so the profits go to havens and are not taxed.
Selling copyrights to an offshore LLC and having it charge the movie fees for the copyright is just one gimmick.

Those who live in South Korea and took the time to read the North Korean material the Norks send down to their Korean brothers. The Cleanest Race, B.R. Myers.
Say the Allies beat Hitler in WW2 but then didn't press their advantage, and just walled Germany-Austria off. Imagine that place left to fester for 65 years.
That about scratches the surface of North Korea today.

My wife likes to read the NY Times for the weddings and such in the style section.
But more and more it seems like every single article in that pathetic excuse for a newspaper has some reference to grieving. The editors wallow in it.
My bet is that they have the stages tattooed on their dicks, so when they are blowing each other they are reminded what to highlight in the articles.

I was floored and dumbfounded. Biggest surprise I can imagine. THE BEST GIFT EVER. God must truely love me. F#*k the SCoaMF and everybody in the beltway. Life is (momentarily at least) grand!

I'd argue do it by % of the vote for the Republican candidates in 2014, or if that is too hard Romney for president in 2012.
Let Republicans choose the Republican candidate.
In fairness though IA and NH aren't Democrat states they are swing states.
But since every Democrat candidate is a far left winger and the Republicans always have a mix from liberal to conservative, yes letting IA and NH choose means the Dems get one of their leftwingers, we get someone around the center - just left of it as Romney or just right of it as Bush43.

I enjoyed a couple of weeks in Japan a few years back. Any country that sells beer out of vending machines on the street is A-OK with me. Ice cold beer on-demand 24 hours a day - does it get any better than that?
Toilets fall into the high tech / low tech thing. They're either holes in the ground or an electronic masterpiece that squirts water up your butt to clean you up.
True about the language thing, too. Tourist places - like getting a rail card - nobody spoke english or could communicate. At a 7-11 though, the employees would strike a conversation in fluent english.

He came as an "Emmitt" and that's is who he is. It really wouldn't be right to change it. He is kinda nicked up (he's been in a scrap/scrape, before), and he was pretty skitty when he arrived. But he seems to be over that. He's neutered, but he's an alpha. I think he realizes he's "a lucky dog", and he's settling in beautifully. He's high-spirited and attentaive. He's a keeper, and I think he's gonna' be a pretty good watch-dog. He's "mouth-feely" right now, and following Mrs. and the boys from room-to-room, faithfully. I'll give it thru the holidays before we "field and gun" trial test him. And that "my stupid mouth" is just an everyday thang.

My dream is similar, but instead of cars, they are in wet tank tops. Have you guys noticed a preponderance of redheads in commercials lately? Why can't real life be like that. I can't remember the last time I saw a redhead. They are like mythical creatures around here.

How many fucking times do I have to tell you people...
Marco Rubio-Tom Cotton 2016!!!!!!!!!!
Glad to see this list, 1-4 very strong candidates. But Rand Paul can be AG in the administration. Scott Walker can be Secretary of Labor. Allen West can be SOD. John Bolton can be SOS until a Supreme job opens up.
Of course I'm only dreaming. But what happened to Mitch Daniels???
No Paul Ryan, no fucking Jeb Bush. THEY ARE DONE. I like Jindal, but not on the national ticket for P/VP.
TRUST ME, we want a war veteran on the ticket as well. NOBODY AND I MEAN FUCKING NOBODY fits the bill like Tom Cotton.
And with that I take my leave.

Second, he clearly doesn't understand that Cracked is meant to be a humorous take, with some exaggeration built in. He might try transplanting that funnybone stuck in his ass to the elbow where it belongs.
Lastly, he's a Michael Moore fan? There's no chance in a million years that he could be right about anything. That's an ultimate disqualifier. Go suck a toad, creep.

Too bad ace hasn't done a post on this season's Survivor. It sucks that all the hot chicks are left, but there is still one girl with a decent body that everyone should be able to identify with as in identifying her as someone they can't stand.
Stupid girl that sucks at challenges and english isn't her first language and just insults everyone without even thinking about how what she says comes out. And at a tribal council where they finally laid into her she kept interupting them and never even tried listening. Her utter cluenessness in how she comes off reminds me of some of the trolls that have shown up.

What I've gathered so far is that I want: .223 / that will cahamber 5.56x45 with a Wylde (or, after a couple a hundred rounds, when the AR upper receiver chamber is 'expanded'?), with a 16" barrel, a bipod, tri-rail barrel mount, laser/flashlight, and flash suppressor.

Get one that is chambered for 5.56 and it will shoot .223 just fine. The cartridge itself is the same, the difference is the .223 has a SAAMI load and the 5.56 is military loaded, which isn't the same as SAAMI standards and is usually a bit hotter. The 5.56 upper will handle .223, the .223 may not handle the hotter 5.56 loads.
I hope I got that acronym right, but if I didn't I'm sure I will be corrected soon.

President Barack Obama spoke to the White House Tribal Nations Conference of Native American groups at the Interior Department Wednesday. The chairman of the conference, Brian Cladoosby of the Swinomish Nation, reportedly suggested that Obama is the first “American Indian” president.
“Think about it for a second,” Cladoosby said, according to the pool report. “The president loves basketball. He has an Indian name, he knows what it’s like to be poor and he hasn’t forgotten where he came from. And his theme song is ‘Hail to the Chief.’ I think he definitely qualifies as the first American Indian president.”

That's "die" Autos. Die, in this case, is plural, not feminine. Japanese has none of that crap.
True story: in Leipzig some years ago at an apartment that had a kitchen. Bought a bag of beans at Starbucks. Realized there was no coffee grinder. Now, they all speak English, but I had been studying German, though I did not know the word for grind. However, being a WWII geek, I know that a destroyer in Germany is a Zerbrocher; so I went back to Starbucks and said, "Entschuldigen sie mich, aber, k
nnen Sie meinen Cafe' zerbrechen? (Excuse me but can you destroy my coffee?) She chuckled and proceeded to grind it fine. :->Posted by: SFGoth at December 05, 2012 09:03 PM (LuBK6)

In fact, Obama has done away with the playing of Hail to the Chief when he enters official functions -- he enters what the White House terms "musical interludes" (which have included songs by Sting and Cole Porter) because he's not a "pomp and circumstances" guy (according to the White House). I tend to think it's because he doesn't like patriotic music.

Five years ago today she found out she had lung cancer. Two and a half years ago I lost her. At the time I knew I didn't want to find out how the next one would destroy me.
I'm still not ready to jump back into the shark tank, but if one happens to jump out at me...who knows?

If you're not using "careful shot placement" then you shouldn't be hunting in the first place. The key is under 150 yards for .223. I'm usually at 50-100 yards. Anything over 150 yards you should be using something in a caliber that at least begins in a 3.

Idaho, Y5, and Harley - target practice only, for now, with just "us", where no one is watching. But if tSHtF then self-defense 1st, hunting 2nd. I'm thinking .308 sounds more "me". But I need to do some real research and pricing.

FWIW, a .223 with proper loads will do the job at 150 yards. You want something bigger for a longer range is all I'm saying. 30-30 or 30-06 or .308 all seem to do very well at the 200+ ranges.

Yep. The best thing you can do to be prepared is be mentally prepared. Stocks of food and water sure, guns and ammo OK, but mostly you have to have the mindset that you are on your own and no one is going to come help you...what can you do to make the most of what you have available?
You can't be prepared for everything, but you can at least be prepared for the most likely scenarios (mostly that is natural disaster; storms, earthquakes, etc).

Er, not really. The fiscal cliff (sequestration + end Bush tax rates) only gets us about halfway to a balanced budget, from the most optimistic calculations I've seen. Assuming higher taxes and the deteriorating regulatory environment don't impact revenues (hint: they will and badly). Assuming the economy will remain in stable stagnation (hint: it won't-see the job report Friday or the weekly unemployment claims). Assuming Obamacare doesn't cost more to the federal government than projected and the fact that they double counted Medicare 'savings' twice doesn't affect the calculation (hint: ha ha ha ha).
The only real terms come if the debt limit isn't raised. Then we have an honest discussion. I doubt the GOP will do that because they don't want honesty any more than the dems do.

I've always said the R party doesn't always vote for conservatives, but it votes conservatively, and unfortunately that seems to coincide these days with "popular" and/or well-known.
I hate to be so much of a cynic, but I believe Christie knew what he was doing when he came out and licked Obama's kneecaps after Sandy.

A great cup of coffee and a pork shoulder that just came out of the oven after spending about 12 hours cooking. And it tastes great!
Otherwise? Life sucks and I blame Obama.

Oh, absolutely. But poking him with a sharp stick is such a pleasure.
One good thing to come of this is the exposure of Costas as just another media idiot. There was some talk of making him the commissioner of baseball. Thankfully he has demonstrated that he may be even stupider than the current commissioner.

Thoughts on the ONT link to conservative blogger poll for 2016 candidates (http://is.gd/IN7YpU)
It is far to early for us to be talking about potential candidates for 2016. Not only is everyone sick of this shit but there are two other major concerns. First, we have to get by 2014 and we need to work on that to keep the House and try to take the Senate. Second, and most importantly of all, anyone we start pushing now is, by definition, an establishment candidate whoÂ’s turn it is. I want to see some damn new blood.

Butchered a little deer last night. In the forest, we use 12 guage with a big honkin piece of lead or sabot in .50
Lung-shot deer only go about 50 yards. I would never think of using .223 for deer unless that was all i had available.

You have absolutely no idea what your talking about.
Xenophobic base?
The early Republican front runner was Herman Cain until it was decided he had to be destroyed by the establishment and his rivals not the base.
The base supported him until he withdrew.
Rubio will not get much support not because he's hispanic but because he's fully onboard with the let's help the Republican party by destroying it demographically wing of the party.
He's trying to use his absolute moral authority card to push amnesty which the base does not support because it will destroy the party not strengthen it.

Same here. But I chuckle, not giggle. What's the story behind the nic Mary?
Not much. Originally, it was "Mary Poppins' Practically Perfect Clitoris," in line with other nics like "Laurie David's Cervix," "Michelle Obama's Landing Strip" and, of course, "Charlie Brown's Dildo." But the clit bit seemed a little too over the line for the Horde, hence the change. And also, I like Mary Poppins. Though, since I like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang even more, I should have done a takeoff of "Truly Scrumptious." Oh, well. . .
Since the headline thread is late, let’s have a story. By the way, am I the only one who saw the Ashley Judd thread, digested her idiocy and sense of entitlement and thought, “so, basically, she’s the white Michelle Obama?”
Anyway, I was looking for a Groucho Marx story last night, but IÂ’ll be damned if I can find it. So IÂ’ll tell it, but until I can find the reference, IÂ’ll have to substitute fake names:
Groucho was throwing a party one evening when he ran into a writer friend (we’ll call him Vic). “I’m glad you’re here, Vic,” said Groucho. “I want you to do me a favor.” He pointed across the room to. . .oh, let’s say CharlieBrown’sDildo, a director who’d just been signed to a big picture after a few years without any work.
“You see CBD over there?” Groucho asked. “This is the first time he’s been able to enjoy himself in a while. I want you to go over there and show him some money.”
“Show him what?” asked a flabbergasted Vic.
“Money,” Groucho repeated calmly. “He’s been broke, you know, and hasn’t seen any money in a long time. If you pull a five or ten-spot out of your pocket and show it to him, I know he’d be very grateful.”
So Groucho left a befuddled Vic and slowly worked his way around the party, saying hello and dropping a wisecrack here and there until he got to CBD. “Good to see you, old man,” Groucho beamed, shaking his hand. “I’m glad I got to you in time. Do you see Vic over there?” he went on, nodding across the room. “I just wanted to warn you that he’s been a little goofy lately. He insists on showing his money to people and nobody knows why. So if he pulls a bill out of his wallet, just nod and say nice things, will you?”
“Sure, Groucho. Anything you say.”
Leaving CBD, Groucho then grabbed himself a drink and a couple of friends heÂ’d let in on the joke, all of them barely containing their laughter as they watched the two men meet in the middle of the room, one holding out a five dollar bill to the other, who smiled and said it was a wonderful thing to see.
Hope you all have a wonderful day.

Congress used unconstitutional methods to pass the law, they specifically said it was not a tax, Roberts reworked the law as proposed by congress so that he could let it stand it's as simple as that.
Roberts is a traitor and when the republic falls he should be the first to get his just deserts.

In general, Democrats win low turnout elections, and Republicans win high turnout elections (in general). So it behooves Republicans to ensure a high turnout election. So how do we do that.
The one thing that neither McCain nor Romney would do was get into conflict with Obama. Certainly they had areas of disagreement, but they wouldn't actually get into conflict. Now, this is important because conflict is exciting. People get involved in conflict; they root for one side or the other.
Take, for example, American Idol. American Idol did better every year until Simon Cowell left. Why? Because Simon Cowell was a dick. He was very specifically a dick, because it caused conflict. With him gone, there is no conflict, and the show is boring.
Or take American Wrestling (or, as we called it, "wrastling."). There was a time when no one paid attention to it. It wasn't entertaining at all. The some guy came along and decided that his wrastling persona was going to be "the bad guy." Suddenly, it wasn't two grown men in their underwear tussling in a boxing ring, it was a fight between Good and Evil. To this day, the WWE keeps that dynamic, and they do very well.
I think Republican politicians, especially on the national stage, need to court a certain kind of controversy, of conflict. Certain "well duh" rules apply here of course (if you're ever having to explain that you think rape is bad, you've already lost, for instance). But imagine if, during one of the debates, Obama had said something about having to "raise revenue," and Romney had returned with this rejoinder:
"Mr. President, I completely reject your premise. We don't have a revenue problem, I'm not particularly interested in seeing the US Government take in more money. We have a spending problem, and that is what we should be attacking."
Now, instead of his mealy mouthed "Well, I want to raise revenues, too!" we have conflict. One side wants to "raise revenue," and the other wants to "cut spending." Now we have conflict. Now we have controversy. Now we have sides.

I see it as part of the classical argument related to intent (where it was clearly stated at the passage of the bill, in what little discussion there was, that it WAS NOT a tax), versus interpretation (where the accommodating traitor Roberts said Congress has unlimited power to tax, so I'll just tweak the "interpretation" to assume that Congress really meant to call it a tax and the TAX is therefore Constitutional).
Basically Roberts said that words mean whatever we want them to mean even if they were written down months ago, let alone centuries ago. Kiss that Constitution goodbye baby, it is irrelevant now!

Niedermayer,I can't speak for everyone,but the reason is because it was never called a tax during debate/voting in the House or Senate.As a matter of fact it was vehemently denied to be one by many a Democrat,IIRC.
Well,lo and behold,it gets before the Court and you decide the only way it is Constitutional is to be deemed a tax?Fuck that shit.Unfortunately that motherfucker Roberts decided to "keep the peace" rather than send the Country into a Constitutional crisis.Because thats what it would have been.How would the Democrats have explained away thier vote for law that was deemed unConstitutional,especially considering the manner in which they passed it.
I decided then and there to LIB.The Government no longer has any restraints on it.They literally can do anything they fucking want to you and retroactively call it a tax.And this fucking jackwagon just set the precedent for it.Nope LET IT FUCKING BURN!
