Charles P. Pierce opines on the Florida primary so I don’t have to:
“(I)t was how Romney delivered the speech that was so revelatory. This is a rich kid who likes flogging The Help. There were just enough shit-eating, country-club grins as he delivered his rancid material to show you what the guy must have been like in those golden moments when he realized that there was more dough in wrecking a company than in investing in it.”
More in the morning.

“The important thing is to get the Muslim Kenyan Usurper Negro out of the White House, so this is the horse we have to ride.”
THIS is the key point from that piece to me – I’ve said this before and here it is again, the TEA Party is little more than a cleaner version of the KKK. Uncle Mitty inserts enough key phrases into his rhetoric to act as the dog whistle – his fat-cat business backers don’t here it while the masses who’ll act against their own self-interest and vote for him hear it loud and clear. What this means to me is I’m going to have to cough up more dough than I’d like to Obama’s campaign to counteract the bazillions of greenbacks the 1% will pour in once Romney’s secured the nomination. Will the 99% THINK before they vote in November? I hope so.
HEAR it, not here it. Sorry for that typo.
Face it, our country is on the ropes big time now. We can still fight back to win but we’ve taken a bad bruising. We got lazy and made stupid mistakes by hiring Nixon (not once but twice!) and it’s been downhill ever since.
Truly, I despair for our country and believe we are living at a time similar to pre-WWII Germany. Eventually there will be hell to pay if we can’t figure a way out of this quickly.
