46030. judithathome - 10/1/2015 9:50:49 PM And here we ARE...Boehner seems like Einstein compared to THIS yahoo: Kevin, We Hardly Knew Ya! 46031. arkymalarky - 10/2/2015 12:33:10 AM Obama is great. We will look back on that fact with regret at the opportunity we took in voting for him and then threw away by not electing legislators worthy of his leadership and intelligence. That blown opportunity won't come again. 46032. judithathome - 10/2/2015 6:43:59 PM No kidding...not with the crop(s) of yahoos we seem content to elect these days.
On another note, re: Kevin McCarthy: much as I loathed Newt Gingrich at the time, when he made pronouncements as Speaker of the House, he was at least literate and well-versed in history, grammar, etc...he didn't sound like Balki from Perfect Strangers. 46033. judithathome - 10/2/2015 6:46:44 PM oops! 46034. judithathome - 10/3/2015 5:25:08 PM Boy, those Republicans! I told y'all the other day that one day, we'd be longing for the return of John Boehner!
Now Jason Chaffetz is going to run against "hopeful MisSpeaker of the House" Kevin McCarthy. Chaffetz is the guy who led the charge against Cecile Richards in the hearings recently and made a fool of himself therein by pointing to a chart he claimed was from HER organization. She corrected him by pointing out that the name of the organization which actually produced the (faulty) chart was in clear view at the bottom of said chart.
Meanwhile, future MisSpeaker McCarthy has bragged about visiting "Hungaria" and other foreign "-ias" recently...one can only pray he kept his malapropisms to himself while there but at least he could claim unfamiliarity with the language.
Here's Rachel Maddow's Take On Mr. Malaprop 46035. judithathome - 10/20/2015 9:10:26 PM This is a great video about Canadian (and now, American) politics...please note the guy introducing it.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Vice President Joe Biden will not run for president in 2016, he said Wednesday, ending a months-long flirtation with a third White House campaign and setting him on a glide path toward the end of his decades-long political career. 46037. judithathome - 10/21/2015 7:54:35 PM I agree...this move just shows he DOES have common sense. 46038. judithathome - 10/21/2015 8:36:41 PM Saw a clip from Wolf Bitzer playing "mean girl" to Lincoln Chaffee in an interview...Wolf was absolutely brutal to the man.
I already cringe when I see the poor guy...why beat him down even further? It just broke my heart.
I blame Chaffee's family for not committing him to a "home" when he walked in and told them he was going to run for President... 46039. judithathome - 10/21/2015 8:38:14 PM I'll see if I can find it...it played last night on
The Daily Show...
Here It Is 46040. judithathome - 10/22/2015 10:31:42 PM All these many months I've watched Investigation Discovery channel for crime shows...I could have seen the same thing by watching C-SPAN...and the Benghazi hearings. 46041. arkymalarky - 10/23/2015 6:26:02 AM So nice of the House GOP to provide Hilary an 11 hour infomercial. 46042. iiibbb - 10/23/2015 4:32:20 PM Too bad Biden bowing out is the most demonstrative thing he could do to show that he really did have the chops to be President.
I literally don't care.... none of the Republicans are qualified.... period. 46043. Ms. No - 10/23/2015 8:41:07 PM And that terrifies me. What is it, like 80% of the time or more that Democratic administrations are followed by Republican ones?
Here's to hoping we're in the 20% this time around. 46044. judithathome - 10/23/2015 9:41:14 PM Seriously, is there ANY Republican running that any of you could see voting for? (I mean if suddenly, there were NO Democrats running?)
If there were ONLY Republicans to choose from...who would it be?
For me, it would be Kasich...if someone held a gun to my head. 46045. judithathome - 10/23/2015 9:44:11 PM Breaking News that has been expected since he declared his plans to run: Lincoln Chaffee has quit the race.
I am so happy he has faced reality...I cringed every single time he was on TV....as we say in the South: bless his heart. 46046. arkymalarky - 10/23/2015 10:08:48 PM I think rubio will be the nominee. But who knows with the prejudice in the GOP base. 46047. arkymalarky - 10/23/2015 10:14:09 PM Hilary is so much more comfortable in her own skin than in '08 and if people remember the disaster that was gwb, we have a good shot at bucking that trend. Especially if the House GOP Freedom Caucus keeps helping the Dems. 46048. judithathome - 10/23/2015 10:51:09 PM I think if Rubio is the nominee, the Republicans can hang it up...I mean....seriously???? 46049. arkymalarky - 10/23/2015 10:59:12 PM Gotta go with who's running, and he's the only one on the board with above 5% who's not coming off to the general population as totally nuts.
