Do you seriously think that having such a hard line on that subject will go over in a national election?

It's a litmus test.

Not a straw pole with a bunch of cow tippers.

Hey, speaking as an Iowan first and a Rhode Islander second I resent that remark. You have no idea how hard it is to actually tip a cow.

If Bachman made a statement like that i would at least respect her a bit since she has a VAGINA.

Seeing that word all in CAPS makes me think it would look good on the side of a ship.

And who needs the EPA. I love my mercury and PCB's they never hurt anyone. I am always looking at more ways to add just a little more smog on those hot as a bastard days when they issue health warnings to the old and people with breathing problems. But hey, if it makes corporations more profitable it must be a good idea. Lower their taxes, relax environmental protections, maybe we can have air like beijing.

On the environment, and im just thinking on fisherman's terms. Lets take away regulations on pesticides so farms can be more profitable. The runoff heads to the Chesapeake and screws up the water more than it is now. Even lower spawning success of our beloved stripers. That would equal more time on S-B in the political forum, a place a rarely visit.

Yes, corporations have a great track record of what's in the interest of the general population. Let them police themselves, hey shouldn't they more than anyone know what pollution looks like?

As for the EPA, let the states do it. With all these rivers, aquifers, wind currents crossing their borders etc... they're ideally positioned to regulate pollution, most of which I'D NOTE THAT YOU CAN'T EVEN SEE!

You can start with his background...the Constitution, Civil Rights, criminal justice etc...

It was interesting in the Woodward book (Obama's Wars) how the Generals and policy makers remarked how much a departure working with Obama was vs Bush. Bush was a listener while Obama is engaged, inquisitive and really challenges the substance of what's being presented to him on just about everything.

He's also reported to be a work-a-holic. I really doubt his vacations are all that relaxing...he still probably puts in an 8 hour day.

Bachmann just won the Iowa straw poll.

It's interesting...growing up in Iowa I never really knew many real Liberals and never knew anyone was bat#^&#^&#^&#^& crazy enough to vote for her.

The idea that it's either going to be Perry or Romney for the nomination is pretty depressing.

Does his "deep knowledge" of the Constitution inform him that what he seems to consider his mission is actually unconstitutional? He seems to have admitted as much when he lamented that the Constitution basically limits the government to certain negative liberties but does not say what it can "do for" the people. Does his "deep knowledge" of "Civil Rights" lead him to understand that his unconstitutional doing for the people deprives them of their civil right to do for themselves? Does his "deep knowledge" of criminal justice let him know that his unconstitutional usurpation of power is a crime of political malfeasance, even, dare I say, of treason against the Constitution he swore to defend? As for his deep knowledge of "etc.", he's undoubtedly very proficient at etcetera . . .etcetera . . . etcetera.

It was interesting in the Woodward book (Obama's Wars) how the Generals and policy makers remarked how much a departure working with Obama was vs Bush. Bush was a listener while Obama is engaged, inquisitive and really challenges the substance of what's being presented to him on just about everything.

And Woodward's opinion shows Obama's "deep knowledge" of what? Perhaps listening acquires more knowledge than challenging.

He's also reported to be a work-a-holic. I really doubt his vacations are all that relaxing...he still probably puts in an 8 hour day.

Is being a work-a-holic a sign of "deep knowledge"?
