Making Chicken Salad Out Of Chickens--t.

[Supsalemgr]

Make no bones about it, I am very disappointed with the outcome of the presidential election. I am encouraged that NC continues to move toward more GOP influence. That being said, I heard an interview with Art Laffer that gave me some encouragement. I understand much damage will be done by executive order going forward, but I am hopeful the House of representaives can prevent any major legislative damage by the Obama administration. Mt. Laffer said he was very encouraged as the Obama administration will do so much damage to the economy that the 2014 mid-terms will be a disaster for the dems and by the 2016 the folks will be so fed up they will turn the them out.

As we've just witnessed.. .. . you guys really suck at making predictions.. .

Perhaps if you made friends with reality. ..

You're encouraged that North Carolina is moving to be more like South Carolina?

I thought you guys considered South Carolina beneath you. Far, far beneath you.

You mean like he has so far?





We just had an election that proved you guys shouldn't keep listening to ignorant partisan hacks and chugging Kool Aid because you end up shocked and looking extremely foolish, and here you are, right back into the Kool Aid.

Flattest learning curves in the universe.

Why in the world would you be encouraged if the United States does worse?



Partisan hacks.

Partisan hacks.

Those true conservative über-patriots, the sole possessors of the full and secret information concerning what it really means and what it really takes to be true, by-God Amer'can here in Amer'ca, the truly chosen and valid flag-wavers (as opposed to the mere pretenders), are rooting against the U.S. of A. again?

Who woulda thunk it?

I had hoped the America haters would sort of just, uh, shut up or slink off into an abyss.....oh, well.

Please show me where I have ever posted anything disparaging about SC.

Our resolve will not be deterred.

That, in and of itself is not a bad thing but resolve is no substitute for reality.. ..

The rightwing extremist's aversion to facts has cost them dearly.. .. .

Thank you Cheesus.. . . .

Cooincidentally, this topic's title is also the title of a helpful advice memo sent to Romney campaign staffers who were relying on government placements in the Romney administration, only to have their Romney cards cancelled on election night.

I may have, from time to time, been less than complimentary about the fair state immediately south. At least about its politics and politicians. There are some nice people live there, and some fun places to visit, but they do seem to have more than their share of people who go to family reunions to get dates. Super-S, on the other hand, has defended the great state of Mississippi, which I refer to as "third-world," so probably he hasn't had much disparaging to say about SC.

Well I guess the Mittman will go back to the thing he does best--organizing search
parties for 14 year old girls who attend raves and wind up in an adjacent state. It's
a rather circumscribed job, but somebody's got to do it.

How about clueing us in on all the executive orders waiting to head down the pike, or are they still secret?

[Supsalemgr]

Obama does not normally consult with me on his actions, so I cannot give you specifics. It is my observation based on his past. Would Neo like to go record he will NOT issue a number of EO's in order to bypass Congress?

[neoplacebo]

Yes.

[Supsalemgr]

Yes.

We shall see.

[Supsalemgr]

Yes.

We shall see.

[neoplacebo]

I don't think he'll need to. I tend to think the GOP is finally coming around.....once this shock of reality makes the full circle. And, besides, we have the sequester pendulum swinging over our heads. Yeah, we'll see what we'll see, all right. We will see if the GOP still wants to stand in the way or not.

[O Really]

Props to Super-S for showing up. Seriously. If I'd blown as much smoke as he and had been so far off, I probably wouldn't have had much appetite to come back with a "wait til next year" attitude. Good man.
