   I would give the Republicans a pass on this if it wasn’t for the fact the firm they hired had a history of voter fraud(in 2004 they basically signed people up and trashed any registrations that the person checked Democrat)

   @Mark, this election will leave a horrible scar on the Republican Party for decades, and be remembered in history for their efforts to suppress voters, their war on Women, Hispanics, Gays, and blatant attempts to raid seniors and the poor and middle class. I could go on, but you get he point…….

   What does “looking like a hippie” is supposed to mean? This type of statement has the potential of backfiring big time. If I were a hippie and thinking like a hippie, I would not appreciate being in the company of Bachman, however the context. I like Bachman, by the way, and I’m not a hippie. Now playing: an endless loop of ‘In-a-Gadda-da-Vida’, full version.

   @AppleStinx

   I think “hippie” is slang for somebody who is far to the left, so saying Akin makes Bachmann look like a hippie means as far right as Bachmann is, she even looks to the extreme left compared to Akin

   It’s a basic debating tactic if you want to point out how extreme somebody is, you find somebody else who is considered extreme the same way and say they make them look normal in comparison

    @1966, checked it out, Wow lots of conflicting stories on his death. What do you think? Reading the family statements and other factors, suicide is hard to 100% swallow. Calling 911to say you are gonna kill yourself is F’ed up!

    Dave I don’t believe you said you know a lot of Republicans that are racist and no Democrats that are. I don’t know where you live or what TV channels you watch, but every democrat that i know are racist, and every one on the liberal media is. Chris Matthews, Lawrence O’Donald, Anderson Cooper, David Gregory, Al Sharpton, want me to go on. See i am black I recognized these racist wolves in sheep clothing. They are the first to cry out that something is racist, that’s quite insulting to me.

    I actually used to loop the 17 min version on some long trips (car trips). That self-induced semi-catatonic state while still 100% aware worked wonders toward reducing fatigue and stress; no accidents ever.

    I know a lot of Republicans and a lot of them are not racist,but a lot of them are.I don’t know any Democrats who are racist.
    Nathan Bedford Forrest began the KKK.Forrest was maybe the best general in the Confederate army.He ask the KKK to disband after they became violent.General Forrest is part of my heritage and he was a racist.See the battle at Fort Pillows.
    The former Southern Dem’s. who were racist became Republicans in the 1960s.
    ********************************

    Are you kidding? Democrats are the ones who are all upset if you say the word WELFARE, because democrats ASSUME you have to be black to be on welfare…Republicans KNOW many more whites are on welfare than blacks…when a republican talks about someone, he talks about the person. When a democrat talks about someone, he talks about what race he is.

    A few notes ago Bill-O said he had like 5 million viewers, anyone know how he found that did he combine the 8&11 o clock views or include radio listeners?

    ***********************************
    No idea…I heard him say it, but I was busy and didn’t get the explanation…the only time I saw his tv show get 5 million was during the RNC convention; however, i do not believe he was talking about that…I could be wrong…

    @Letmethink

    As a percentage of their audience 18 and older (2012)

    A18-49
    CNN: 54%
    FNC: 46%
    MSNBC: 41%

    A50+
    MSNBC: 57%
    FNC: 53%
    CNN: 43%

    (A18-49 + A50+ may not add up to 100% due to rounding in the subsets)

    **************************
    57% of MSNBC’s audience is over 50? so that’s where all the southern democrats go to die?
