raj, you’re still worthy of debate.

Oh, so, let me understand. When you are faced with inconvenient facts, you wish to take your ball and go home.

Comical.

#19. Exactly. And the Andrew Sullivan utterance still escaped in the stream of talk. Again, how much projection can this screen take?

Just be grateful he didn’t work in the Log Cabin Republicans too. Mel has the Jews. GPW has Sully and the LCRs. We have GPW. Everybody needs somebody.

It’s interesting to note that voter turnout was low –about 9% of all eligible voters. So about 4.8% of all eligible voters narrowed the choice in November to Walberg and a no-name candidate in an unimpeachable GOP Congressional district. 4.8% –it makes me want to go back to the days of county conventions and congressional district caucus picking the nominees. Nawh, just kidding.

Walberg may be a friend to tax cutters and fiscal conservatives, but he’s no friend of gays.

Peter, of course the trump card in the “if we had only known” game is to posit if JimminyCricketCarter had only known that his turn-tail-and-run-from-the-Shah strategy…

Ah, the Shah again. Sure, he was a despot, but at least he was our despot.

And let’s ignore the fact that if the American CIA and the British MI6 had not restored him to power in Iran in 1953 against a democratically elected government, there might not have been a despot there at all in 1978-79 to be overthrown. Such selective memories some people have.

I don’t agree with Joe Schwarz on spending or earmarking or on the urgent need for fiscal restraint at the Federal level, but in Michigan, when he served on the Senate Approps Committee he got most things right, most of the time on spending –he wasn’t a pig or hog.

The Club4 growth is looking at his less than 2 year stint in the US House and indicting him from there. That’s just wrong.

He’s a moderate -which probably makes him a liberal in the GOP House Caucus these days. He favored the Prez’s tax cuts, liability reform, malpractice reform, is pro-choice and in favor of reasonable but tough environmental sanctions against producers –including cities and the state when appropriate.

The real reason Club4Growth has placed a target on Joe’s butt is because he didn’t get out of the 2002 race and let former Congressman Nick Smith’s son, Brad, take the nomination. Which is what Club4Growth wanted… How cheeky of Joe.

The Club4Growth is wrong on this one.

If Rev Walberg wins today –unlikely that he’ll even get 40% of the GOP vote in the primary– then it’s bad news for the 7th District ’cause that’s one seat the GOP could lose with enough money and the Rev out front.

I’d hate to ever build a grudge with the Club4Growth… those guys are smoking crack insane.

The Club for Growth has done a good job pointing out Schwarz’s record on fiscal issues — which is far from conservative.

That man deserves America’s eternal scorn and if history’s liberal apologists screw up the truth about Carter’s Presidency like they have Truman’s, God help the history books and the next generation.

When I see evidence that Haq, or John Salvi, or Buford Farrow or Eric Frank Rudolph or the Kolumbine Kids are part of various conspiracies involving a bunch of brownshirts, I’ll sit up and listen. No, why don’t you run along and find that evidence, instead of just sitting there tinkling the ivories of your keyboard?

Oh, and, by the say, before you go to sleep tonight, be sure and check under your bed. The boogey man might get you.
