"This to us is something that we're not going to give up on, because we're not going to give up on destroying the health care system for the American people."
That would explain why, after 33 unsuccessful attempts to kill Obamacare in Congress and getting his ass handed to him by the voters when he and Mitt Romney ran on that, Paul Ryan is now saying the 35th time is the charm.
Oddly enough, Charlie Sykes, radio squawker and the "power" behind White Wisconsin, loves to refer to the Albert Einstein quote, "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results," yet praised Ryan for this tilting at windmills. Can you say, "Hypocrisy?"
SANTORUM: I actually read the Freeh Report. I don’t know if you did or not, but I did. And, my
concern with the Freeh report, a lot of the conclusions in the Freeh
report aren’t matched by the evidence that they presented and
so I’ve been talking to a lot of folks at Penn State and they say,
‘you’re just gonna have to wait for the criminal trial of these two guys
at Penn State.’ I think there is going to be a whole new line set on
what really went on there. So I’m sort of sitting back and waiting for
the facts to come out as opposed to at least I’m being told is a version
of the facts. … Let’s get the truth. So I think we’re going to see some things come up a little different in the next six months. I just want to make sure we get it right.
I actually voted for Rick Santorum in the presidential primary. Not because I felt he was the best person, but because I see the republican party as insane these days(and I am not alone). The problem with primaries is only the true believers pay attention and many have no idea how extreme this party is. I felt that putting Rick Santorum(understanding I only had one vote) on the national stage would help to show their true colors to the vast majority of independents in this country.
I now realize I was wrong, because(as we see with the support of Mitt) that if Santorum would have been the candidate it would not matter how crazy he is, many people would vote for him anyway. Is he that much worse than Mitt? Is it better to swim with crocodiles or alligators?
The question is, was I wrong for voting for Santorum? Do people even care that the republican party has become so extreme? is there anything that would make the republicans NOT vote for the candidate with the R after their name? While I have admitted the error of my ways, what about the people who actually voted for Santorum as a real candidate? or Newt? DO not forget Rick Santorum was American for Prosperity's Poverty's candidate of choice!
"I think it’s pretty clear that you have two very different worlds in this state. You have a world driven by Madison and a world driven by everybody else in the state of Wisconsin," Walker said.
In other words, or to be more accurate, this is the way that Scott Walker sees Wisconsin:
In addition, Walker is apparently trying to change the name of de Wisconsin River to De Nial, Walker game up with doozy of a quote:
Walker said that the results said nothing about looming recall elections of state senators stemming from the controversy over his recent union bargaining measure.
"Those Senate recall elections both on the Democrat and Republican side are not being held in Madison and not being held in Milwaukee. They’re being held in other parts of the state," Walker said.
Either Walker is the best liar in the state or he has gone utterly, stark-raving mad.
