Gingrich in Mississippi Today: Like A Pig In ****

Hey, hey! I am from Georgia. Back it up or be quiet. You seem to be guilty of what you accuse others to be. Think about it.

I am too... Sayin "Georgia" like he did was a bit of a stretch. But North Georgia above Atlanta... not so much of a stretch.

You are asking how a bigot got elected in Georgia? You must be kidding right?

Or how a black race baiter got elected in Chicago right? Oh wait, thats different...
Speaking of outrage, do I get to take outrage for how many times various liberals made fun of Arnold? Cause it was a lot. If you werent pissed off when libs were doing it, you have no right getting mad when Gingrich does it. Single standard please.

Im not saying its right in the first place.

*cough* Gray Davis, his opponent doing exactly that : State Senate demands Davis apologize for remark / Comment made on Austrian accent of Schwarzenegger

Seems like you still don't know about those electrical problems California had. You seriously trying to tie to to Gray Davis? it was Enron. And they pleaded guilty to it. All this corruption in California's energy market was made available the moment they deregulated their grid. Then Enron came in a ****ed you guys up. Enron traders (traitors) then sold the energy to outside California and also worked with energy production companies to slow production to drive up prices. So much for blaming it on the Dems in your state.


Enron 'Mastermind' Pleads Guilty

Timothy Belden, the former head of trading in Enron's Portland, Ore., office, admitted to one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and promised to cooperate with state and federal prosecutors as well as any non-criminal effort to investigate the energy industry.

"I did it because I was trying to maximize profit for Enron," Belden told U.S. District Judge Martin Jenkins.

"These charges answer the question that has long troubled California consumers: whether the energy crisis was spurred in part by criminal activity. The answer is a resounding yes," Ryan said.

Belden was "the mastermind behind the strategies described" in memos that spelled out how Enron manipulated the California market, said Chris Schreiber, an attorney working with California's Senate Select Committee to Investigate Price Manipulation of the Wholesale Energy Market.​


If you want to see a good piece on it and Enron in general, watch the documentary "The Smartest Guys in the Room."

Gee, then how did he hold office?
Just because you think something dont make it true. Present some evidence instead of this vitriolic ad hom bull****. Let alone cant fix stupid, thats so old and pitiful its an insult to yourself to use it, get some new material.

I like the Gotti thing, thats a strong strawman. Not even close to what I said though. Try presenting some cogent thoughts about why he "isn't fit to hold office" and stop insulting me.

In as few words as possible:

NO. "Link or it didn't happen" is a bull**** stance regarding Gingrinch.

But you are correct, I did insult you personally. I know that's impermissible here, and I will endeavor to follow the TOS more closely in future.

Well, thanks for a post that will contribute only to the decline of yet another DP thread. I really appreciate threads on which those of us with differing opinions can respect these. And then along comes somebody with a blanket generalization or insult....

I mean, when your point is that Gingrich is a pig, not much honorable discourse will result.

Honorable discourse about Gingrinch is not possible. Not my fault.

Gingrich is still technically very much in this race... but he needs a couple of hail mary's... so, yeah, he is throwing the bombs to the endzone. Last I recall, telling a state it is fat stupid and poor isn't a winning combo. So of course he is talking up a state he desperately needs to win. Liberals are acting like Gingrich is playing a poor strategy when in fact it is his only real strategy. I predicted he would be in it until mathematically eliminated or that the ST was so hard on him it wasn't worth staying in/ Georgia while yes his home state was the biggest delegate prize of the night and he won it. His strategy is to pick up the southern states and then be competitive in Texas. Its the only stategy he's got and if it wasn't for what he knows is the weakness of enthusiasm of Romney, he wouldn't stand any chance. Slim and none are still world's apart.

I agree, but it makes me feel as if I am in bizarre-o land. The whole GOP slate gives me this feeling.

I actually liked Arnold until the news broke about his love child. He allowed his own kid to live in poverty for ten years?

That was it for me...I no longer have any respect for him.

You people have given us Pelosi. AGAIN. I have no fondness for California voters anymore AT ALL.
 
Oh, and "cheesy grits" is about the same thing as a cheesy presidential candidate! LOL!

Cheese grits can be very good. Shrimp and grits are excellent. To be honest, if you don't just like grits, just regular old grits, with maybe some streak o' lean and cat head biscuits then you shouldn't be talking about them.

The good people in Mississippi know what I am talking about. And there's a lot of good people in Mississippi.

Can I get a witness?

I'm "hongry".

Actually it is possible.

Gingrich would definitely make a better president than Obama.

Baggage is Gingrich's problem. Newt has too much baggage to win a national election.

Gingrich needs to get out of the way so Santorum can have a chance.

I think some foods, you have to learn to love as a child. Grits gross me out...badly.

But I'll bet $5 you've never had a white hot dog and think Genessee Ale tastes like piss.

I think it's about what you learned to love early in life, Ricky.

But I do miss...O God, how I miss...fresh ocean fish.

They all need to get out of the race, and reincarnate Eisenhower.

Link is dead, but Gringrich is a tool. Most rational people know that, and the reason why he's doing so poorly.

Must be the same reason Obama is losing in the polls.

What would you call it? Single mother, no benefits, no child support.....seems fairly clear to me.

Surely you are not going to define his abandonment of his own child?

Even if there was money, Schwarzenegger denied his own son, and no amount can compensate for that loss. Now that it's out in the open, I wonder if he has a relationship with this son.

"Defend", not "define". Sowwy.

Polls? As in more than one? Your statement implies most or the preponderance of polls, when in reality its only two polls out of more than 20 major poll results released in the last sixty days. You have taken a lesson from the books of Sean Hannity of how to create misleading statements based on selective mining of the facts.

RealClearPolitics - Election 2012 - General Election: Romney vs. Obama

.... of course, the real meaning of any of these polls, at this time, is yet another discussion.
 
It is possible to win any election in Mississippi by just promising everyone a free gun.

O, how I admire bigotry. Please, do go on, Solletica.

*Sarcastic tone*

What else do you delude yourself into believing is both despicable and yet unique solely to the Deep South?

Where you at, BTW? Some lovely, corruption-free, northern city?

(IMO, such places only exist in Canada.)
