Good to see there are some dems who are not gobblers, like the above.....I believe this is the Grimes chick, Ky.

"I'm not Barack Obama," she says, "I disagree with him on guns, coal and the EPA.




Still looking for evidence of any senator running on Obammercare.

Tesla Motors (TSLA) stock dropped Monday after Morgan Stanley suggested that its shares had risen for the wrong reasons.

Shares in the electric car maker fell more than 9 percent by Monday afternoon, after Morgan Stanley researchers posited that they "do not expect the stock to appreciate so consistently and one-directionally from here."

One of the major concerns that the analysts noted is the failure of other electric vehicles across the developed world, which could lead to the industry to lobby for a "substantial revision" of air quality regulations "to slow down the pace of milestones they have little hope of achieving (besides Tesla)."

"It ranks just behind Spain and Italy, of all economic humiliations. America did beat Portugal and France, which is currently run by an avowed socialist"

Did they mean France, Portugal, or America that is run by an avowed socialist?

The paradox of the United States tax code - high rates offset with a bounty of subsidies, shelters and special breaks - has made American multinationals "world leaders in tax avoidance," according to Edward Kleinbard, a professor at USC who was head of the Congressional Joint Committee on taxes.

C'mon sardis, that tax rate ranking is bogus. Our number is like a hotel rack rate...you ever pay one of those, ever?

[sardis]

If you were right, we wouldn't be having this exodus would we.

I wish you were leading an exodus to hell...

You believe in hell?

I feel like I experience it every time I come in here...

Top Arizona Republican Official Resigns After Forced Sterilization Remarks http://news.msn.com/us/top-arizona-repu ... on-remarks

So it's HIS radio show, and HIS voice: "You put me in charge of Medicaid, the first thing I'd do is get a woman Norplant, birth-control implants, or tubal ligations," Pearce said. "Then we'll test recipients for drugs and alcohol and nicotine" and if women want to reproduce or use drugs or alcohol, "then get a job."

So later he says his remarks were written by someone else whom he failed to attribute and "this mistake has been taken by the media and the left and used to hurt our Republican candidates."

Nevertheless...being totally innocent didn't prevent him from quitting. heh

[hedge]

I wish I knew what was preventing Toe from quitting, so I could eliminate it...
