or as one columnist headlined: Come for the Crazy, Stay for the Party.

The best

Perhaps the oddest moment of the convention so far was when the Senate minority leader, who is facing a tough reelection fight in his home state of Kentucky, brought a rifle onstage as Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer" blared from the P.A. system. The gun was a gift for retiring Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) as a lifetime achievement award from the National Rifle Association. Yes, this happened.



pish . . you call that a rifle?

No, assault weapon

No bayonet lug or pistol grip. It's cool.

But that lil powder stuffer could double as baton !!!

Here is an even deadlier one.

You could pike an eye out with that thing !!!

The rifle MUST be an assault rifle...it uses black powder. We all know that anything with the color black on it MUST be bad, right?

I too am absolutely NOT a fan of Rick Perry. Wouldn't give you fifteen cents for him. His speech at the CPAC, however, was OUTSTANDING. Proves that even a blind squirrel finds a pecan every once in awhile.

It's about principles. The principles he encouraged were EXACTLY correct. Basically he pointed out that the government should not be in the education business or the healthcare business. These comments are exactly correct.

Correct principles are correct principles, no matter who is voicing them.

Another great speech at the CPAC was Dr. Ben Carson. He talked about some solid principles, proposing that control be put back in the hands of the people instead of the government. It is obvious that it is now in the hands of a few self serving idiots that would sell their momma on a street corner for one vote.

He will probably get beat this time. He has been in office for like 100 years or so. Here in town, the theme is to get rid of them.

Clk's Ebay Stuff BUY SOMETHING NOW!!!

Where shall we start? No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, signed into law by President Bush on Jan. 8, 2002, v what you said "Basically he pointed out that the government should not be in the education business " So he is anti Bush?

I sure hope for the southern youth that the government doesn't get out of education.... poor slobs are disadvantaged enough already without db's like Perry gutting their education to line their pockets. Not to mention that they would start teaching even more religious claptrap.
I think our country has a compelling reason to stay on top of education.
You decry the slipping position our country holds in the world, and then argue against one of the few things we can do to restore our position.

Correct principles are not really correct principles when they are merely window dressing designed to buy your vote.
Kind of like that worthless mouthpiece Carson. He should have his MD revoked, as he has clearly decided that he would rather forget all that he knows about being a doctor and instead be a career politician.
Have you donated to his campaign yet? He is expecting the check soon.

So does no one know that it was a Kentucky rifle and be is from Kentucky? Furthermore
Have people not realized that the
Second
Amendment is supported by conservatives?

Of course for liberals it is
Typical to ridicule opinions that do not agree with their own.

It was a very good gesture.

Preach to the deaf brother.

The only good good amendment to a liberal progressive is the fifth.
