GEE.....A Republican that lies (quoting Norquist).....A Shocker!!
This has always been his pledge, vote for a raise in taxes if you promise to vote for a cut at some point. Unfortunately, this is how the republicans do business. Fear = position, principal and best interest of country be damned.
His first name is not Mitt it is Williard; please in the future use Williard; why is it only the Revernd Al has picked up on it? Norquist is finished; ignore him and he will go away. Rush Linburger is the bigest blowhard I have ever seen in my life; what a phoney; he sells hate that is his job; that is the devil's work! Remember Williard not Mitt or Williard Mitt and then his last name of the vulture capitalist; draft avoiding; country club, never got his hands dirty; rich guy who doesn't give a dame about the average American! Williard damn it! Use it.
Norquist is bat poop goofy.
"Bat crap" crazy! I love it! By the way, please have your staff check on the correct spelling of "judgment". It was "judgement" in your piece. Unless, of course, you intended to use middle ages English usage. Thanks!
Norquist is a very bad actor who is damaging this country. please ignore him.
Nothing is more cowardly than the gop when it comes to individuals. They're the Brown Shirts of the twenty-first century.
The actions of people in the 1% group are never questioned and they are
not required to explain themselves. They are used to dictating,
stealing, offending, and corrupting whoever and whatever they want. So
when one (mitt) is questioned about anything he has no way of responding
as he is being asked questions he has never had to explain and answer
before. He feels his taxes and everything else about him are his
business and he very much resents allowing anyone in the 99% group to
learn anything about them and him. The 99% are there to be used not to
be acknowledged in any other way. It's the little people who pay the
taxes and go to jail for breaking laws. The 1% create and write the laws
for the 99% and are themselves exempt. So, you see, the mitt only cares
about your vote, the reason for your vote is unimportant and will be
forgotten anyway. Suffice it to say, on any given day whatever the mitt
says is the truth and nothing but the truth on that day.
Grover Norquist is just another "bloatiating ignoramus" (please disregard my spelling - that is if there is a correct way to spell that one)
Anyone else notice the increasing demonic look to Larry O'Donnell's smile and his eyes lately? I mean, look at that picture above on this posting. There is a look of madness there, I believe.
It's all the crazies in the GOP!! Like the rest of us Dems & Liberals trying to figure out what they will do next!!!
Love you Lawrence & all the rest on MSNBC! Keeping it real!!!
Am I missing something, or is there a way to caption these videos? We hearing-impaired people like to follow the news too!
Got to have an "OFF THE CLIFF" pin, bumper sticker or something---this is a great idea!!!!!
