Shellings from the Peanut Gallery

There are times when one can no longer remain confined.
It matters not that one agrees or disagrees.
It matters only that the shell that binds be cracked and thrown off.

The Wrong One Bites the Dust



4-17-12

Yikes! There I was spending Easter with family believing the world just might survive without my careful and close observation, only to return and find the world had indeed turned upside down.

What happened to Rick Santorum? Why in the world did he quit now ... before NY, PA, TX and CA?

Seriously?!?! He was the only one close to Romney and the only one to keep him from hitting that magic 1100+ number. If those morons at GOP-E central think for a minute that most of Santorum's supporters will flock to old GREENrich they are sadly mistaken! Of course I can only speak for myself, but I'll not be switching to anyone else. Enough!

Santorum was NOT the one to drop out. Old selfish, egotistical Newt and that crazy uncle from the attic Ron Paul are the ones who should have dropped out ... a couple of months ago actually.

Every time I read anything about this so-called election I get those déjà vu chills up and down my spine. Far too much of the rhetoric, the actions and the manufactured polls are comparable to the 2008 election and should scare the bejabbers out of everyone.

After quick perusals of my favorite sites I find nothing about the removal of that ineligible usurper from the ballot. What that tells me is that the GOP-E are lining up once again to ensure the illegal, ineligible, America hating usurper "wins" the phony "election" so he can become king of America for life. Please excuse me now as I am about to be very, very sick.

A. B. O.

When they say Anybody But Obama they really mean Anybody But Obama or Mitt Romney. Now, I don’t disagree with that sentiment in the least … however … NEWT???

Really people, have we learned nothing? Let’s refresh shall we? Do these names sound familiar to you? GEORGE H.W. BUSH - BOB DOLE - JOHN MCCAIN

When you keep doing what you’ve always done, you will always get what you’ve always got!

Of all the republicans that actually declared their candidacy there are only a couple worth discussing.

Herman Cain, while falling into the “old men” category, was vivacious and alive with new ideas presented with a fresh twist. He took no guff from the dreaded enemedia and had a unique way of putting them in their place … until they took him down of course … all with the help of the power brokers in the GOP. The other exceptions for Cain are he is not white nor is he a career politician.

Michele Bachmann of course was in unchartered territory. First, she is a woman, which apparently freaked out more than a few in the Good Old Boys Club. Second, she is unashamedly very conservative and had no problem articulating her conservatism. Third, she is young and full of energy. Last, but certainly not least, she is not a career politician. She has actually had a life outside of the government largess.

Rick Santorum is the last conservative standing, but the big guns and knives are coming out for him in a big way. While I like Rick just fine, he would not have been my first choice for this, the most important election of our time. However, after Cain and Bachmann turned tail and ran, Rick is the only one I would consider voting for although he is not as conservative as I would prefer. Admittedly, I arrived at this decision when all the alleged conservatives were screaming for him to get out of the race to make room for the gigantic ego that is Newt.

What is most curious is that these mouth pieces were insisting he withdraw even though he won in Iowa while Newt came in at a very distant fourth place. The screams continued after Rick beat Newt in New Hampshire – albeit in fourth place -- which I will never understand. But I guess it is true what they say … the media chooses our candidates and that includes the so-called “conservative” media.

The Newt Blitz has been formidable and finally propelled Newt to his very first win in South Carolina. Now the cat calls for Santorum to quit have reached decibels that I no longer hear. Hopefully Rick can’t hear them either. It should now be clear for all to see at this point that the fix is in – AGAIN!

RICK SANTORUM WINS IN IOWA!


Friday 1-19-12

I just don’t get it. Well, maybe I do, but am simply not ready to admit the calamitous plan the so-called conservatives and establishment republicans have on the table behind those closed doors in that smoke-filled back room where they make all their deals.

It is stupefying to hear alleged conservative leaders calling on candidates to drop out of the race for the presidency while advising those who have yet to vote in their primaries – which is 98% of the country – to vote for someone who has managed to place in a distant 4th place and a virtual tie 4/5th place in the only two primaries held thus far.

Billed as the “premier conservative web site” FreeRepublic.com has now officially endorsed the Newt. Many on the thread are now calling for Rick Santorum to pull a Rick Perry and quit the race and endorse Newt. You all know Rick Santorum…he is the one who actually won the Iowa Caucus to Newt’s distant 4th place showing and trailed Newt in New Hampshire by 16 votes, if that count is to be believed, to virtually tie for 4th place. I remember well how FreeRepublic endorsed that McCain stalking horse, Fred Thompson in 2008. Perhaps there are some out there who remember that disgusting primary and are reeling that it is happening again.


UPDATE: As it turns out the New Hampshire count could not be believed. SANTORUM beat Newt for a 4th place finish to Newt’s 5th place. Yet the calls continue for Santorum to quit. Go figure!

WHEN IS A WIN JUST A TIE?


Thursday 1-19-12


When the GOP says it is, you peons! Now shut the hell up and vote so we can perpetuate this fraud we call democratic, free and fair elections.

Back on January 3rd, there was a farce called the Iowa Primary. At the end of the day, Mitt was declared the winner as he was credited with 8 votes more than the nearest challenger, Rick Santorum. Of course we had to wait a couple of days as the hunt was on for more ballots, but eventually they were able to produce the 8 votes that allegedly put Mitt over the top.

Good old Mitt took his victory lap and Santorum gave his concession speech and life went on. Never mind the fact there were questions even back then as to the actual vote count. We were told in all likelihood there would be changes to the actual vote once everything was calculated for certification in a couple of weeks.

There were no headlines screaming “It’s a Tie” back then. No…no, Mitt had a BIG win which lead him to the “historical” win in New Hampshire a week later. Yeah, Mitt “won” both Iowa and New Hampshire so the other candidates might as well quit and allow Mitt to be crowned as the “Republican” nominee for President. This was an absolute “historical” moment in American politics -- if you care to believe the lying, communist Enemedia -- and by God no one was going to steal it from them! All this clamor after only 121,000 in Iowa and 248,000 in New Hampshire have had an opportunity to cast their vote. We the People have been excoriated and candidates have been “urged” to drop out and face the writing on the wall … Mitt Romney WILL BE the Republican candidate for president in 2012 and all you little people will NOT stop us.

Uh-oh…what have we here? Back the truck up! After two weeks of recounts -- with eight missing precincts never to be seen again -- the official vote count being submitted for certification shows Rick Santorum actually won the Iowa Caucus Primary by more than four times the number of votes Mitt had at the time … which sent the GOP Establishment and the Enemedia into euphoric fits of ecstasy for the past two plus weeks.

Now I want to see 100s of headlines touting the fantastic win by underdog Rick
Santorum! I want to see Mitt come out and give his Iowa concession speech and congratulate Rick Santorum on his fine win. I want to hear the GOP establishment say … never mind … I want the GOP Elitists to simply shut the hell up!!!
