1 Good morning

2 First again!!

3 yeah! new thread!!!!!!

4 Funny article over at PJ Media about the top 5 most overrated liberal comedians. I disagree with a couple of the choices, but it is amusing.

5 the president is a stuttering clusterfuck of a miserable failure!!!!

6 Hey phoenixgirl, are the snakes in hibernation now??

7 Good to get us started off with that reminder. Sets the tone for the day. Read somewhere that Virginia was going to allow the rest of the GOP field on the primary ballot, then they decided not to. C'mon guys make up your minds.

8 SARose:  our Va. AG, Ken Cuccinelli, said he wanted to let all the candidates on the ballot & he was going to press for the General Assembly to change the law pronto when they returned to legislative session next week.  But then Cuccinelli thought better of this strategy.

9 cheech and chong were funny...george carlin was funny sometimes.....the smothers brothers were funny......even my parents liked the smothers brothers and they were ultra conservative......

So someone at work asked me if today was another Federal Holiday. I replied "Yes. The ones who want to make money are open for business today".

I had the Post Office in mind, but driving home I noticed the med clinic by me is open. But the VA facility next to it is of course, closed.

11 they should be san antonio but...it was 79 degrees here yesterday....i live at the foot of a mountain ...people in the neighborhood are always finding them......some people don't close their garage doors at night.....which i don't understand but they find them the most....a friend of mine had a doozy of a morning walking her dog a couple of months ago.....she didn't have her glasses on and saw what she thought was her neighbors dog that had gotten loose.....she was 5 ft from it before she realized it was a coyote......she started backing away very quickly only to bump into an overfilled garbage can with a dead rattler tail hanging out of it.....only in the desert.......

12 Apparently my company is the only company in all of NYC open today. Even the street coffee guys are gone. It's like post-armageddon; plastic bags flying, no people anywhere, trash from NYE still around... Happy New Year!

13 Things that make you say "What the hell"?! link to American Thinker

14 The Smothers Brothers were funny, then they tried to be 'relevant.'

The thing that pisses me off about the whole legend about their TV show is this:  CBS signed them up for a comedy show, and put the money behind it.  They then decide they want to do things to make controversy.  They seemed to think that they had a right to take money CBS had given them for a comedy show and make it into something so they could have a platform for their political views.  Why should CBS take money and throw it into something they would expect would alienate the viewers they were trying to attract?  The attitude of the SB was one of entitlement to someone else's money and network to go political.

15 David Gregroy was on Morning Joe today with his buddy Chris Matthews.  It is worth taking a peak when they release the clip.  His take away from the Santorum interview was interesting.  But, it seems these MSNBC guys are all in for romney.

16 Rick Perry joined on the last days of the Iowa campaign with a Navy SEAL he let live in his house for some 2 years while he recovered.

"He received the Navy Cross after surviving a vicious 2005 battle in which three of his fellow SEALs were killed when they were discovered inside Afghanistan while pursuing a Taliban leaderÂ…

Luttrell later wrote about the experience in his book, “The Lone Survivor.” It is being made into a Peter Berg movie due for release next year.

Unlike Forbes, Luttrell isnÂ’t expected to testify today to PerryÂ’s policy. Rather, he will speak to the Republican presidential candidateÂ’s character."

Can you name another candidate who would do that?

Not to burst your bubble but Rick Perry strikes me as the type of guy who would say "I'm going to be running for president so let me let this guy live in my house and then when I need him he can step up and make me look good".  sorry, I don't buy what Perry is selling so I don't assume his motives are anything but purely political.

Santorum is the only candidate who seems to be willing to tell the truth and have an honest discussion with Michelle Bachman a close second.  Oddly enough saw a headline that newt thinks romney would "buy the presidency" if he could.  Funny when Michelle Bachman said stuff like that she was considered a loon but when newt, a male, says that, it's all good.

Everyone seems to be missing the planned billion dollar campaign of the incumbent.

Hmmm, that IS interesting. A couple of years ago FEMA built some sort of huge response center (depot?) just north of KC. Which makes sense, being we are pretty much in the center of the country and can respond quickly  to disasters hitting Chicago, St. Louis, Denver, etc.

Weird thing is, right before the news of that came out, I had heard stories of 'other' things being held in the KC area. I'm not trying to be mysterious here, but the info I got was from a Fed Employee who is in position to know, so I'd rather not post what he told me.

So yeah, that article sparked my curiosity...

How many times does the FEMA camp myth need to be debunked?

20 The thing to stress in this story is that guns are allowed in the park. Ergo, the park ranger would not have been shot if guns were not allowed in the park. The ex-serviceman who shot her would have just stayed home and killed cats and other small children if guns had not been allowed in the park. Yes, yes, I see the logic of that. ... Axe murderer on the loose in park. Law allowing axes questioned! Tree limb clubing murderer on the loose in park. Law allowing tree limbs questioned! oh, boy...

21

My candidate of the week is so much better than everyone else's. You guys should totally listen to me because i'm from new york city so my opinion is worth fifty times what your old gang club is worth.

Where else would you find such cutting edge opinions on Perry. It obviously is just a political ploy. Even though everyone is bitching that his campaign has been a rush job with little planning that probably is because he didn't know he was running for president till this year. No way in hell that a man who served could see a hero that needed help and would give him all the help he could. No obviously just a political move 3 years before seriously running for president occured to him.

22 The guy is pure politician.  He still had to run for governor of texas.  Sorry if you don't like my opinion of him but to me he is anything but genuine, GWB, part II, no thanks.  And, I would venture to guess that I'm not alone in this opinion

I don't have a candidate of the week.  I think the republican field is very weak.

  Why should CBS take money and throw it into something they would expect would alienate the viewers they were trying to attract?

If IIRC, The Smothers Brothers show was in the top 10 when it was cancelled. So I doubt CBS was losing money. As far as the politics go, you're correct. But at the time they were doing quite well.

24 "If you won't show the ad to your grand children, don't run it".....gingrich speaking now in Iowa.

25 ok, this is my first blog, ever! really! 1st, you are all wacked because anyone in the gop field is better than the corrupt regime we now have. 2nd, kagen is holding the goods (former dean at harvard i.e. keeper of barry o's records) on barry, and 3rd, chat a dem up each day to get them to realize to start to realize he/she is under the effects of powerful koolaid...

27 Hey cvrgrl, welcome to AOSHQ! I usually kill a thread, cause I'm on Left Coast and get to my blogs later.

You are absolutely right.Their Koolaid is very powerful, we must do whatever it takes to get Obama and his entire crowd retired forever in Nov.

28 Romney seems to be pulling ahead of Gingrich according to CNN and FOX.  Romney the moderate and Gingrich the republican.

29 Wow this is soo helpful I have been trying to figure this out on my own for a long time now. Hopefully making this change will help encourage discussion on my blog.

30 Its Pleasure to understand your blog.The above articles is pretty extraordinary, and I really enjoyed reading your blog and points that you expressed. I really like to appear back over a typical basis,post a lot more within the topic.Thanks for sharingÂ…keep writing!!!

31 You made a few good points there. I did a search on the matter and found a good number of people will agree with your blog.

32 Nice commentary. last thirty days I uncovered this internet site and desired to permit you be conscious that iÂ’ve been gratified, heading via your siteÂ’s posts. I should certainly be signing equally as much as the RSS feed and can wait around for another post.

33 good collection of the blog post ,really very nice.
