Joe made a good point. If you want to talk religion, have a bible study. If you want to
be president, talk jobs, economy...

I think Rickie is in trouble. At some point even hard core RWingers have to realize this guy is too much.

A bunch of people who are unqualified to do their own jobs bitching and moaning about how people can come out of nowhere ( i.e. Obama) and be President in this day and age. Hey, or even TV show hosts, Joe and Mika. A total absence of self-awareness.

11. A bravuro performance by Joe! I've never heard him yell so loud and for so long!

I knew he'd come back pissed as hell at what is happening in his own party. Then the Dow broke 13,000 yesterday, which it hasn't done since 2008 before the wheels really came off the economy.

So Joe Schmo is screaming in February...what's he gonna do when fall comes? Hope he doesn't have a stroke in the meantime...

of socially liberal, fiscally conservatives who are wondering what to do. Hope

15. I used to think that way. My next door neighbor is a republican and he is a nice guy.

He and his wife (also a lifelong republican) have helped us out in our time of need, when my husband was sick. Their kids are sweet, very nice and always polite and helpful. In 2010, she supported the Dem candidate for Senate, Dick Blumenthal because she said "he deserved to be Senator." But her husband supported that horrible Linda McMahon, even tho he and Blumenthal were on the same side in several consumer issues. That told me something. I would have thought, that as the father of a girl, he would have been repulsed by McMahon's exploitation of her own daughter. But he made up a BS reason not to vote for Dick.

Now I just realize that many of these republicans just "can't help themselves."

Seems his women-folk were scolding him for not backing up the conservative agenda enough, and that was his response.

Pigs flying some?
