Mike Huckabee thinks he can beat Obama in a presidential election, even if he thinks winning the primary would be tough:

“Here’s the reality: I think he can be beat,” said Huckabee, who has just written a book titled “A Simple Government.” “I frankly think that I would be in a very good position to do it, because I believe that standing head-to-head with him, articulating the very clear decisive difference between our positions, would be a great contrast.”

Tim Pawlenty loves unions, he just…uh…hates collective bargaining?

Collective bargaining in the public sector creates the “most protected coddled employees in the country,” since unhappy unions can essentially kick out management through the election process.

And failed Senator Santorum spreads some nasty thoughts about unions, calling them drug addicts:

“What these folks are in Washington is no better than a drug dealer,” he said. And the Wisconsin unions? “They are acting like their drug is being taken away from them.”

Republicans really have completely lost the momentum of the 2010 midterm elections. Instead of standing for the common man, it’s taken them less than two months to officially become enemies of unions and vaginas.

  1. I hope you’re right. But these out-of-control GOP’ers are just a diversionary tactic.

    The real candidate is still Mitt Ronmey. (Once he’s done with his fudge fact-finding mission.)

    Mitt’s money backers are the exact same rich brothers propping up media crazies like Palin and Walker. Mitt’s been told to keep it low pro until we get closer to the election. Then he’ll come on like a soothing salve in contrast to the teapartiers and their ilk.

    And middle America? They’ll probably buy it.

    Mitt. Comes. On. Like a soothing salve.

    Mmm. (You’re welcome.)

  2. To say here that we are “Republicans” exclusively is a little naive. But to say we don’t know the value of the vagina is outrageous! Everything has a price, including “your” city council and their body parts…

    Hopefully, the Portland City Council is ready to give up this charade of pretending to stand for “freedom” and “liberty”, and surrender itself to the will of our new Fascist-corporate government; a government that arrogantly punishes those who oppose its practices with malice, which the states have always done to persons who can’t defend themselves. It’s the American way! What times the pow wow?

    Make no mistake the FBI, the local U.S. Attorney, and all those entities and their ex-military soldiers/law enforcement officers which operate under the Department of Justice are well rewarded for their roles in the slow deterioration under phase II of “your” civil rights and “your” civil liberties; John Kroger and Karen Immergut’s current lofty positions demonstrate.

    And why wouldn’t you swallow the promises of Oregon’s latest and greatest U.S. Attorney (our corporate operative) Dwight Holton, who said two weeks ago, ‘we know the bi-annual polygraphs ($200 each!) that all “registered sex offenders” are required to take are meaningless’. Of course, this is just more of the same effective rhetoric that we’ve been using for many, many years. Should we throw in a few colorful beeds, Randy? The fact is, it’s been tested, and it works on a misinformed populis- It’s been devised by our think tanks and a tightly controlled federal government that exploits the world for us billionaire handlers. And remember, before you vote on Thursday Randy and Sam, we always ruthlessly punish our political adversaries both here and abroad. How’s Bradly doing? Really, it’s for your own safety stupid!

    I say the members of the Portland City Council need to stand up and show the community their true colors, and the kind of government they support and vote to approve the JTTF. After all, it’s “really, really” for our own “good” to quote the former U.S. Attorney, Mr. Kroger.

    And think about it, “you’s people” really don’t deserve better”-

    So tough up everybody! And get a ‘little bit strong’! What we all really need now is to join johnny blue and take the Paulson money, give up on the vagina, and get a ‘Handy Bob Job’ instead!

    And most importantly Ducksters, be sure to blindly worship your “Team” and the “Alpha Dopes’, and don’t worry about what we got planned politically for 2012- It’s a real HOOT!!!

  5. Yes, and my drug is a living wage and a reasonable shot at a decent life.
    Hate me if you want for it, Santorum, but you couldn’t survive on what I make, pig!

  6. Oh, you can’t scare me,
    I’m sticking to the vagina,
    I’m sticking to the vagina,
    I’m sticking to the vagina.
    Oh, you can’t scare me, I’m sticking to the vagina,
    I’m sticking to the vagina ’til the day I die.
