- inactive, on 08/07/2008, -8/+27LOL. Soon there isn't going to be any GOP VP hopeful left that McAss can choose from.. Isn't this like the third one who's come out and publicly touted something Obama supports/believes/touts etc.? LOL.
- mousers1968, on 08/07/2008, -5/+18Who is he trying out for? McCain or Obama?
- turbodan1, on 08/07/2008, -12/+21Whoa the Huffington Post posts something positive about Obama and negative about Republicans? This is certainly a story worth digging!
- spyd3rweb, on 08/08/2008, -2/+7The GOP could have used Ron Paul's positive message.
- WasabiBomb, on 08/07/2008, -4/+9Actually, all I smell is *****. Seems to be coming from QuadZero's direction. Odd.
- bjornski, on 08/08/2008, -3/+8Speaking as a Minnesotan, Tim Pawlenty SUCKS as a Governor.
Do some research on him.
You want this Paul McCartney wanna-be? Take him. - absolutzombie, on 08/08/2008, -3/+8I listened to Pawlenty's speech, and while some of it is certainly true, the fact remains that T-Paw is really a D-Bag who just happened to be the guy on "duty" when our bridge fell. The bridge will end up being an exclamation point on a long list of failures degenerations blunders on his watch. Even an ex-wrestler was a better guv.
- bjornski, on 08/08/2008, -3/+7I'm from Minnesota. He's my Governor. He's an *****.
It's interesting to see that the "Minnesota Nice" image has spread as far as Peru. - illinoise89, on 08/08/2008, -3/+7Quad, it's time for your meds.
- krissy575, on 08/07/2008, -10/+13He sounds like a decent person- what's he doing being Republican? Come to the Force, Tim ! Come to the Force ! Turn away from the Dark Side!
- inactive, on 08/07/2008, -4/+7Let me save the haters a lot of trouble - I know you hate huff post. But the FACT remains that this guy said this. Argue that instead. I know, I know, it's propaganda liberal trash... But this guy still said what he said.
- goombah, on 08/08/2008, -1/+4It's amazing the press a liberal gets once he changes his tone from doom and gloom to one of hope. That is why Obama seems so different to the electorate. That is the message they should have been touting for the last two elections. Then Bush wouldn't have stood a chance.
- Clark1984, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2I'm all for making huge cuts in the military. Why would you assume otherwise? I'm on digg, I'm obviously a Ron Paul fan. It seems insane to me though that Obama is proposing to increase dividend tax to 48% and nearly double capital gains tax. Especially since we get MORE tax income with a lower capital gains tax. Nobody seems to address what I find to be Obama's greatest weakness. No, I don't endorse McCain either.
Also, it is NOT half of GDP that goes to the military. It is 55% of the discretionary budget. This is still a huge number, but nowhere near half of GDP. In other words 55% of the money that congress actually can make yearly decisions on goes to the military. Yes, we need to severally cut back our world police task force. - mahoneyxp, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2Plus funding for state colleges have decreased significantly over his tenure, causing tuition increases across the state...
- bjornski, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2....and my axe!
- solidcube, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2You're very, VERY concerned about that, but nothing about the fact that over half the GDP goes to the military.
Hypocrisy much? How about we put a moratorium on military spending above maintenance levels for a few years? It would still be #1 in the world easily. As it is, we spend almost as much as the REST OF THE BLOODY WORLD COMBINED.
GOPers' weak, mealy-mouthed protests about fiscal responsibility ring utterly false to anyone who knows the above facts, so much so that it's nauseating. - SoyJames, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2***** Paul McCartney. Lennon 4EVER!!!
- peticsu, on 08/07/2008, -9/+11dont expect to hear anything else from Timmy again...
the Rovian noise machine doesnt operate on honesty... - solidcube, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2Hey, considering that he was a damn ex wrestler, Ventura was not such a bad governor. I would vote for him above any republican except for Ron Paul.
At least-- at the very, very least-- he was honest. - ZenMojo, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2I think Angelina Jolie had some interesting things to say about Jon Voight. Before she told him to stay away from her family.
- ZenMojo, on 08/08/2008, -0/+2Buried for "Catastrophic Carter agency." Were you even alive or were you just stupid back then?
- ericjohnson0, on 08/08/2008, -1/+3Sure. 10 minutes of text, audio and video are 'out of context.'
You probably actually believe that, don't you? - KDX200rider, on 08/10/2008, -0/+1"Come to the Force" this is a very sad SW reference.
- UtuOnYou, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1Pawlenty is an evangelical nutcase.
- UtuOnYou, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1I missed you with my car.
- rcook18, on 08/26/2008, -0/+1Did anybody really think that we could spend this kind of money year after year and not pay for it with higher taxes? The corporations raking in the billions are not paying taxes. Who did you think was going to pay the bill?
- rcook18, on 08/09/2008, -0/+1The GOP needs to lose this presidential election. The GOP needs to pin the financial ***** Bush has unleashed on this country on a democratic president. The bill for the Iraq war is coming due.
- solidcube, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1No, you're right. Brain fart.
The thing is, though, anything we do is piddly in comparison to that gigantic drain on the economy. No tax plan, good or bad, matters at all in comparison to the enormity of that. - muckemuck, on 08/08/2008, -1/+2hmmm.. now why are you trying to scare people with something that insinuates Obama will change our government in drastic and scary ways? Let's see what we currently have:
- a government that will wiretap and spy on it's own citizens? Yep. Bush gave us that.
- a government that no longer upholds it's own constitution? Yep. Bush gave us that.
- a government that redistributes wealth on a massive scale? Yep. Bush gave us that.
- a government that starts two unconstitutional wars based on lies? Yep. Bush gave us that.
- a massive drop the value of our dollar? Yep. Bush gave us that.
and on and on.
... .and does McCain criticize Bush for running our country into the ditch? Nope. - akchrs, on 08/08/2008, -4/+5"He added that McCain has been positive as well." I guess you liberals missed this part.
- UtuOnYou, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1I'm from Minnesota too. Every single one of the liberals I know HATE his guts. Plain and simple, he's a douchebag.
- cobophers, on 08/08/2008, -2/+3The quote is completely out of context with the intention to create a false pretense.
- kelchm, on 08/07/2008, -5/+6riiight, and that clearly makes HIM a bad person.
you fail. - KDX200rider, on 08/10/2008, -0/+1I live in Mass, and our last gubernatorial election was won by a liberal with a positive message "Yes we can". And that is all we got, a positive but empty message. Nothing else.
- bjornski, on 08/08/2008, -1/+2I'm voting against any ***** that says we need one public cent for pro sports while the rest of the state rots.
Want to fund pro-sports? Fine. Don't ask the state to do it if it's such a great ***** bargain for the state.
I don't have kids, but can understand paying to not be surrounded by ***** Cletuses. But for ***** sake, there's NO reason in the world the state should have to pay for a god-damned sports field so grown men can play catch with a ***** ball.
Paylenty's push for pro-sports at any cost have shown where his priorities are, and they represent the "leisure class" of the state, the workers can just get *****.
Pawlenty can get bent. - muckemuck, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1No. See, that would require them to undo all the years of neo-conservative brainwashing and actually promote limited federal government, conservative fiscal policies, and actually respect the constitution. They don't want to do that. PLUS, it would have meant they'd have a huge grassroots support base to work with and they might have actually been able to beat Obama. They don't want to win. They want the Democrats to have to deal with the huge mess that our country is in.
- bjornski, on 08/08/2008, -1/+2Give me the pro-wrestler that understood that pro-sports can pay for themselves if they're such a good deal instead of taking $1 billion out of the general fun to build a god-damned baseball stadium as our infrastructure rots.
But hey, look at Minnesota's GDP, huh? It's doing GREAT!
We don't need roads or education, we can have BASEBALL!
***** Pawlenty. - ZenMojo, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1Republicans sold ***** in a Hershey bar wrapper but since they said it nicely people vote for them?
Democrats told them to stop eating ***** but they were told, "It tastes nutty, it must be a candy bar! I just have to keep biting until I find the good parts." - gmitchel, on 08/08/2008, -1/+2Any decent Minnesotan can tell you: No, Tim Pawlenty is not a nice guy, he's a dick.
I, therefore am telling you that, "No, Tim Pawlenty is not a nice guy, he's a dick." I will add onto that, "Simply a dick that knows that McCain is getting his ass kicked, and sort of knows why."
Also, NotGibbwake... Your post is too friggin long. I'm not even going to try reading it. This is the internet sir, we are not your friends and do not have to listen to you vent and quote essentially everything you can find. - Clark1984, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1Eh, Tim seems like a nice guy. I've always been impressed with Obama at townhall meetings, but why does no one want to discuss his completely illogical tax plan? I can't see the economy improving by taking out all incentives to invest.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB121781236115708865 ... - noloveIII, on 08/08/2008, -1/+2What has he done so horribly?
I am also from Minnesota - rottencod, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1It's a 10-minute string of excerpts from Obama's books, where he is discussing people's attitudes and what people believe, and they are all out of context and it's obvious they are parts of much larger passages. You can't take any one sentence from a paragraph, or any one paragraph from a page, and say that is all the larger passage is saying. Obama in these passages was obviously making commentary on the opinions that exist. He was stating the opinions for the purpose of explaining them - that doesn't mean he espouses those beliefs.
Take your ***** somewhere else. - inactive, on 08/08/2008, -1/+2It's like driving your car and never changing the oil. Pawlenty cut the budget on MnDot to the bone and when it all breaks down his line is well I didn't raise taxes? His biggest save is capping how much money victims can get while giving the contractor thats building the bridge a two million dollar bonus!
- ZenMojo, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1The Dark Side is part of the Force, psh...loser.
//escape - solidcube, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1Yeah, it must be. We need to get the message out to educate the republican voters who have their heads somewhere dark.
- Elranzer, on 08/08/2008, -1/+1I'm sure there's someone out there who agrees with McCain's "Get OFF my Lawn!" message over Obama's Hope/Change message.
- mobilexile, on 08/08/2008, -1/+1Pawlenty is a tool. I live in Minnesota and can personally debunk his 'I cut taxes' myth. Fact is he cut State spending by way of cutting funding to cities and counties thus pushing them to raise taxes on the local level. One very real and telling example of his 'tax cuts' comes in the form of property taxes. My property taxes, during the Pawlenty era, have nearly tripled. Yes, that's right, in six short years my property taxes are nearly three times higher than they were prior to his taking over the gov's mansion.
So, when Pawlenty opens his mouth assume it's for some BS to fall out. - UtuOnYou, on 08/08/2008, -1/+1You're so cute when you're angry. Like a widdle angwee puppy!
- KDX200rider, on 08/10/2008, -1/+1More sewage from the crappington post....Sure the GOP needs a more "positive" message, you know like "Change" and "A new direction", you the meaningless marketing crap that the liberal dupes love. Does not matter that there is no substance behind them.
- reallyandrea, on 08/08/2008, -1/+1Even McCain's guy thinks McCain's jokes are old and tired. MCCAIN FOR COURT JESTER IN '08. The Straight Talk Express has become the John "Jester" McCain Traveling Vaudeville Show, while Americans lose their homes and jobs.
