The Goat Pen

Only to laugh at your tiny pecker.

Johnathan Winters was one funny SOB off the cuff. I have to say Robin
Williams is second.

Ron Paul's people are totally fucking up Romney's shit right now with these caucuses. Nevada is about to get the boot because the Ron Paul people slipped in and took over the delegate slots.

Delegates aren't binding to the majority vote.

Fascinating

Forget The Nomination: Ron Paul’s “Revolution” Is Taking Over The Republican Party

But perhaps more important and far-reaching in its implications for the future of national politics in the US, is not Ron Paul’s delegate count, but the fact that his supporters are successfully taking over the Republican Party district by district, county by county, state by state.

In Iowa, it is no exaggeration to say that Ron Paul’s people have taken over the GOP. After a stunning coup on April 21st, the new Iowa GOP state central committee now has six members who have publicly expressed support for Ron Paul’s candidacy– and that includes the new state chair of the Iowa Republican Party, A. J. Spiker, the former vice chairman for Ron Paul’s Iowa campaign! Think about that. This is major news. It signals a sea change in the Republican Party. We are now living in a world where the head of the Republican Party of Iowa is a Ron Paul supporter.

And it’s not just Iowa, though Iowa is especially significant because of its prominent role in the national primary process. Ron Paul’s supporters are taking over the Republican Party everywhere. This weekend during the April 28th district conventions, Ron Paul supporters also took over the GOP in Louisiana, with not a bare majority, but a whopping 74% of the delegates to Louisiana’s state convention in June. You can bet they’ll show up and you can bet they’ll elect their own to positions of leadership in the state GOP.

Whether media commentators consider this change a good or bad thing for the Republican Party and for the future of American politics, they have an obligation to report it to their audiences and acknowledge just how significant this change is. We are witnessing no less than a political revolution in the country and a major shift in the GOP’s internal composition. For two election cycles now, Paul’s supporters were an outside minority that had to make their case to the party establishment. It looks like in 2014 and 2016, Republican candidates will have to make their case to Ron Paul supporters in many places.

Rand just got so wet...

That dispatch about Ron Paul reminded me of the "news" items that klaatu used to post about Lyndon Larouche and how him and his people were in on basically every major decision in world politics....

You could mosey on over to civilforums.net for another dose.

At least 911 got those assholes out of the airports. Silver lining, silver lining.

Delegates aren't binding to the majority vote.

In Nevada and most states, the delegates are bound for the 1st ballot. So the question is whether Romney will reach the necessary amount on the first ballot. Even more importantly though, they will be able to vote what they want on the platform

BREAKING NEWS: Obama has already won.

Please spare me the next 6 months of nausea.

You've made it 3 1/2 yrs....6 more mos is fair.

Our faith in institutions have fallen...

So let me get this straight. In NC gay marriage is not ok but fucking farm animals is?

Yeah, but as long as you don't marry your farm animal...

that amendment is going to hurt unmarried hetero couples more than gay wannabe marrieds. whatever happened to less gov't in the lives of its citizens?

those laws are going to hurt Hedge Hogge the most, especially if that part brooklyn said is true about not being able to marry farm animals...

DS knows the rules. Keep them fed, take them to bed, but never wed.

In North Carolina, he can marry his cousin, just not his gay cousin.

Politics has become like pro wrestling. A bunch of yapping and slapping when the cameras are rolling, and then the "enemies" go off and have dinner and drinks and laugh at the rubes who think it's really real and that they really hate each other...
