Breitbart Headline.  John Edwards is pulling out.  He's not endorsing yet.  Looks like he'll use that for leverage on VP.  I'm still shocked that Florida gave the win to McCain.  Hopefully the Republicans on Super Tuesday will see through the RINO camouflage.  Remember everyone....JUAN HERNANDEZ works for McCain.  JUAN FREAKING HERNANDEZ!!!

Stultus est sicut stultus facit

I know Mitt Romney isn't looking for advice from me (LOL) but if I were on his campaign staff, I would be telling him to start talking Supreme Court Justices. McCain is WAY too willing to work with Democrats on things. He would be all too willing to "work with" Democrats on SCOTUS nominations.

Can't you just picture a President McCain promising to work with Juciciary Committee Chairman Pat Leahy, and having him and Chuck Schumer coming up with a list of  "acceptable" candidates?

If that doesn't frighten the hell out of Republicans, nothing will.

I will vote for McCain and here's why:

If things go poorly over the next four years with McCain in the WH, the Dims will complain that it is due to the "neocons" and their hurtful agenda. 

If the Dims win control of the WH and things go poorly they will simply lay blame on the previous eight years of President Bush.

Either way, the Dims will blame someone other than themselves for anything negative.  Oh, and if things go well with McCain in office, they will still rail that things are bleak and pain and suffering are going on all around us at alarming rates.

And now, today's "Paulbot" edition of The Shrub Report®:

This is for you, DasSarkBot, because you are such a humorless boor and thin-skinned crybaby.

Ron Paul got a whopping THREE PERCENT of the vote in Florida yesterday. That amounts to 62,000 votes, or about $8 per vote from DasBlimp, which, apparently, is kaput. You were right, DasSarkBot. The blimp was a smashing success! The one state DasBlimp could safely traverse (when it wasn't rainy, cloudy, windy, or dark), and the best you mental giants could muster was 3%? Are you able to dress yourself in the morning?

In another stroke of campaigning GENIUS, Ron Paul admits he was focusing more on MAINE instead of Florida. Those 21 delegates are much more valuable than the 57 in Florida. With strategy like that, would you trust this 70-plus year old man to map out a family trip, let alone run our country?

There are some funny Paulbot phrases and websites out there. Funny because many of the "faithful" are anti-war weenies: ronpaulWARROOM.com, "Ron Paul DVD BOMB", Ron Paul sign BLITZ", etc...

Oh, also, I think I hit DasSarkBot at little close to home with my recent "donate blood" comments, since that is exactly what some Paulbots are doing! When does the Sperm for Paul drive begin?

Remember, folks, February 1st is the anniversary of the Exalted One and his royal Queen. Celebrate Reverend Moon's, er, Congressman Paul's Holy Day by donating your savings! With a lot of luck, Ron Paul will get over 5% of the Maine vote on Saturday! That is, if the shadow Bilderberg-controlled government does not assassinate their Blessed Leader by then, of course.

Since none of this laughable news conforms with DasSarkBot's sad little world, I will obviously be called a whiner. Unfortunately for DasSarkBot, I am using his own websites against him.

To quote yourself, DasSarkBot: deal with it.

I agree with Rush as a McCain victory will impact my voting. If McCain and Obama win, I'm voting for Obama. If McCain and Hillary win, I'm enjoying a quiet evening at home. I know... some say this is an infantile move, but here is my reasoning.

I don't see a dime's worth of difference between Hillary and McCain. McCain has an extremely well documented history of tossing anyone or anything under the bus if it benefits him. I think that anyone who believes that this guy wil veto universal healthcare, ban abortion or amnesty, or do anything else he's promised to is kidding themselves. He's going to sign off on the same bills that Hillary would, and if someone's going to sign those, I would prefer they be a Democrat. Also, what about 2012? Do we really want the GOP to tell a real, solid, conservative that they can't run because we need to support RINO McCain since he's the sitting president??? Four years of a democrat is better than eight years of a pretender like McCain.

While I refuse to vote for Hillary McCain, I will vote for Obama. I figure at worst he'll be as bad as Hillary McCain, but there's a chance he might better, so I'm picking him as the lesser evil over Hillary or McCain. I don't like the thought of voting for a flip-flopper like Romney, but looking at his track record, he does have a lot of election year conversions. But, once he's elected he tends to stay with the point of view that got him elected, which makes him a lot more reliable than McCain in my eyes.

For those who want to vote for McCain because he would be better than Hillary, I implore you to take a second look at his platform:

• McCain has said in interviews he doesn't like Sam Alito and would not have put him in SCOTUS.
• He wants to close Guantanamo Bay and give constitutional rights to terror suspects, including access to classified charges against them.
• When Congress narrowly lost a bill to override Bush's veto on ending the war, John McCain refused to vote.
• McCain voted against Bush's tax cuts twice and did not change his position until 2006.
• McCain believes in global warming and has promised to clean up the planet.
• He doesn't want universal healthcare, but he wants to raise the tax on cigarettes, regulate tobacco like a drug, and expand SCHIP.

Sounds like Hillary lite to me.

Anybody else notice that Bravo ran eight straight hours of The West Wing the day before the Florida primaries? A Democrat in the White House. Doing good things for the people. Coincidence?

A Democrat is someone who wants to put YOUR money where HIS mouth is.

If you are conservative or vote Republican in general, voting Libertarian helps them stay on the ballots which only hurts Republican candidates. In my home state, a third party only keeps its recognition by pulling in certain percentages of the popular vote, or by the number of names on a petition. Continued Libertarian support, which in my opinion is a complete waste of a vote and money, divides the conservative vote and thus helps liberal and Democratic nominees.

This thing about Teddy and NY chapter of NOW is sheer poetry.

"We are repaid with his abandonment!"  He's picked the new guy over us. He's joined the list of progressive white men who can't or won't handle the prospect of a woman president who is Hillary Clinton."

Hey Teddy, can you say "Bob Packwood"

This is the problem that this site faces in the editors and people taking bad economic news as a personal attack on them or President Bush, because the Feds in a Yahoo story confirmed what I have said about the functioning section of the economy that is only grew at .6% in December and was not doing well at around 2.2% all in 2007.

It does not matter who the President is.......what matters IS THAT THIS SITE start promoting an econmic plan for American where production is increasing wealth not inflation.
That is why I can care less now who is President as McCain is a leftist mafia crank, Obama is a 3rd world socialist crank, Hillary is a communist crank and Romney is a Mormon national socialist crank.

None of them are going to have a thing nor will America UNLESS we:

1. Produce more crude and with Japan develope methane ice.

2. Produce bio fuels to stretch American production.

3. Install a homeowner grant package of disaster shelters which will produce a 5 year expansion of the economy in good jobs and the solar panels will help the power grid and lower homeowner's energy bills while taking money from the global warming scam.

4. Initiate as I have posted here a deep sea mining cartel who will sell minerals and metals to Asia for the balance of trade with no income tax on those corporations IF they invest that money back into the American economy.

5. Set a savings interest rate for banks which will allow for their stability and a sound investment for people away from unstable stock markets.

6. Arrest George Soros for the world criminal he is which will send an absolute message to the cartels to stop or they will be jailed too and executed for crimes against humanity.

I just cannot vote for McCain under any circumstances. If he gets the nomination, I'll vote for Hillary and pray that even though I think putting Bill back in the WH is a disaster waiting to happen, he will keep her sane and hold her back from going too far left. I see zero difference between Hillary and Mac, except that Hillary is a whole lot smarter. Of course, just about anyone running is smarter than McCain. Romney will take most of the Rocky Mountain states, let's hope he tallies up enough delegates to have a say at the convention. 

 One thing is for sure, if McCain gets the nod, it will be a vicious, dirty campaign, McCain only know one way to win, lie, distort and do vicious personal attacks.

First there was the phony claim that Romney supports a timetable for withdrawal from Iraq, and now this outrage:

The
day before polls close in Tuesday's critical Florida primary, some
voters in the Miami area received automated phone calls in Spanish
falsely accusing Mitt Romney of supporting an opening of relations with
Cuban President Fidel Castro.

A key member of
Romney's Latin American policy team, Ambassador Roger Noriega, had been
on local radio on Monday morning talking about Romney's anti-Castro
stance. "It was obviously a dirty tactic and strategy to rebut the
efforts we made to let the [Hispanic] community know our position,"
said Al Cardenas, Romney's Florida state chairman.

Asked
if he suspected rival John McCain, Cardenas responded, "Obviously it's
a camp of one of our opponents," later adding "I can't specifically
state with certainty it is John McCain's campaign, all I know is there
are two campaigns making these calls, ours and his and these calls
started immediately after our programming on that issue."

I am happy to see that over 21,000 Floridians decided to vote on real conservative principals and voted for Fred Thompson like I did. It'll be interesting to see how many more votes Fred got once the early and other mailed in ballots get counted.

"I think the real winner this past week is the Latino community."

Speaking of Latinos, seems as if illegals qualify for the rebate checks Congress is putting together for us.

Speaking of those rebates, isn't it interesting how the Dems have been telling us for years that tax cuts don't stimulate the economy, but now they are telling us that these "rebates"(Tax cuts) are essential for stimulating the economy and ending our economic meltdown, lol.

I'm confused about the Newsbusters stance on the war.

Most NBs claim they support the troops and want to win in Iraq, yet they continually apologize for/defend/ignore the insane amount of waste in our reconstruction efforts at the hands of shady/greedy/inept contractors.

As far as I can tell, successfully improving Iraq's infrastructure is a major part of our success.  The better the infrastructure, the safer the troops and the closer we are to victory. 

Furthermore, they're wasting our money as taxpayers.  If you don't really care about winning, at least you should care about your wallet.

So why do the Newsbusters sit back while American contractor's fail to do their job, and in doing so, put our troops in increased danger?  Isn't it about time we start holding these derelict firms accountable? 

Let's take a look at a recent example.  Tell me if this is helping or hurting our war effort, helping or hurting our troops.

The Parsons Corporation - grade A Texas thieves

The Special Inspector General in Iraq has found that "8 of 11 rebuilding projects by the Parsons Corporation costing $365 million had to be stopped before completion for disastrous waste and ineptness."

Whoa Whoa Whoa!  Are you kidding me???  If this contractor was operating in America they would have been out of business immediately.  This is truly a disgrace.

Here's what prompted the investigation:

"The investigation was prompted by the company's $75 million construction of the Baghdad Police College, which ended up with feces and urine pouring from ceilings in student barracks, floors heaving off the ground, and water dripping profusely in a room dubbed "the rain forest."

Huh?  So while we're trying to get the Iraqi Army and police force to stand on their own so our troops can come home, our contractors are making this impossible.  Literally impeding our progress.

As far as I'm concerned these guys are doing just as much damage as our enemies in Iraq.  They are fighting against America, putting our troops in increased danger, wasting taxpayers money, and delaying our success in the war.

When will Americans stand up and call for an end to this criminal waste?

I will not support or vote for any candidate in any party that I feel I have to excuse, apologize for or otherwise explain.  I know there is no perfect candidate, but we can do a lot better than what the Republican Party has demonstrated for some time now.  Currently there is a complete lack of direction due to a complete lack of leadership at all levels.

One less issue for the Dems-a Clinton-appointed Federal Judge had this to say today:

New Orleans (AP) -- A federal judge threw out a key class-action lawsuit Wednesday against the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers over flooding from a levee breach after Hurricane Katrina.

U.S. District Judge Stanwood Duval ruled that the Corps should be held immune over the failure of a wall on the 17th Street Canal that caused much of the flooding of New Orleans in August 2005.

The suit led to 350,000 separate claims by businesses, government entities and residents, totaling billions of dollars in damages against the agency.

The fate of many of those claims was pinned to that lawsuit and a similar one filed over flooding from a navigation channel in St. Bernard Parish. It was unclear how many claims could still move forward.
