    Interesting what happens when THE PEOPLE have a voice in deciding about raising taxes, even when it’s “for the children”.

    Colorado voters have rejected an attempt to raise state income and sales taxes to fund education, The Denver Post has declared.

    With 61 percent of precincts reporting, Proposition 103 was going down in flames across the state, with 35 percent in favor to 65 percent against.

    That was also true in Denver. With 86,978 ballots counted through 8:30 p.m., the measure was failing 45.3 percent to 54.7 percent.

    Even in liberal Boulder County — home to the measure’s chief supporter — the measure was struggling. Most recent results showed it was winning there, but just by 1,804 votes.

    So the MSM is still aghast over the “possible” inappropriate sexual advances towards a couple of women on behalf of Herman Cain, correct? They certainly do spend a lot of time on it, especially MSNBC and the rodeo clowns employed over there that operate under the guise of “political commentators”, who are convinced that these “alleged” lapses of judgement disqualify him for consideration for POTUS.

    What’s ironic, is that they continue to worship at the alter of Bill Clinton, so just to refresh their memory – I submit the following:

    The affair continued after Lewinsky became a paid White House employee and would last a total of 18 months. During their affair, the President and Ms. Lewinsky had ten sexual encounters in the Oval Office suite, including one instance in which the President, while engaged in sex, spoke to a Republican member of Congress on the telephone regarding sending U.S. troops to Bosnia.

    And another not so flattering account of liberals favorite President:

    But Broaddrick could not remember the date, even the month, of the alleged 1978 incident. And NBC’s Lisa Myers reported that Broaddrick, a volunteer in Clinton’s first gubernatorial campaign, attended a Clinton fund-raiser three weeks later. “I think I was still in denial,” Broaddrick said. “I still felt very guilty at that time, that it was my fault. By letting him come to the room, I had given him the wrong idea.”

    Asked about Broaddrick’s allegation at a news conference earlier in the day, President Clinton said: “Well, my counsel has made a statement about the . . . issue, and I have nothing to add to it.” Attorney David E. Kendall’s statement called the charge “absolutely false.”

    The nursing home operator, previously known as Jane Doe No. 5, told Myers that she felt “violated” but finally stopped resisting Clinton’s sexual advances because “it was a real panicky situation.” She said that “he was just a vicious, awful person.”

    Pressed by Myers as to whether she was raped, Broaddrick said she had been. “It was not consensual,” she insisted. As for her feelings now toward the president, Broaddrick said: “My hatred for him is overwhelming.”

      So the MSM is still aghast over the “possible” inappropriate sexual advances towards a couple of women on behalf of Herman Cain, correct?

      There have been numerous news reports that Cain’s alleged physical gestures were not overtly sexual. Howie Carr at the Boston Herald has a humorous take on it.

      I don’t know what Herman Cain did or didn’t do at the National Restaurant Association, and neither do you.

      But I can quote you some of what the journalistic common nightwalkers of Politico said in their alleged blockbuster: “There were also descriptions of physical gestures that were not overtly sexual but that made women who experienced or witnessed them uncomfortable.”

      Not overtly sexual? That could mean anything. Please pass the salt. Get me Joe on the phone. How ’bout them Steelers?

      • dvindice November 2, 2011 at 7:47 pm #

        If this is such a hot issue why did they wait until now to bring out this story instead of hauling it out when Mr. Cain first starting running for the oval office?

  3. RetiredSpook November 2, 2011 at 12:20 pm #

    A week or two ago, one of our resident Lefties posted a link to a MarketWatch article that was very complimentary of OWS. How quickly things change.

    NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — Here’s how the media are viewing the once-hottest news story: Occupy Wall Street is 99% dead.

  4. Cluster November 2, 2011 at 12:39 pm #

    The OWS fire just isn’t burning as bright as it did, despite of the SEIU funding – what a shame.

    On another hypocrisy note – why isn’t rodeo clown Ed Schultz leading the charge against the draconian, anti union policies of Gov. Jerry Brown???

    http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/2011/1027/Retirement-revised-Jerry-Brown-proposes-pension-reform-in-California

    • David November 2, 2011 at 7:28 pm #

      Because Jerry Brown’s proposal doesn’t include stripping significant collective bargaining rights, which was the main cause of mass hysteria in Wisconsin. When you disguise union busting as “pension reform,” then people tend to not like your pension reforms.

      • Cluster November 2, 2011 at 8:08 pm #

        So you’re saying that eliminating collective bargaining rights on benefits only (they still have bargaining rights on wages), and generous benefits to boot, was the cause of the mayhem and drama queen moments? That’s a sad statement.

        Incidentally, I support FDR’s position on public unions, the questions is, why don’t liberals?

      • David November 3, 2011 at 2:32 am #

        The bill restricts wage negotiation as well. It just doesn’t eliminate it outright.

        Saying that they don’t need bargaining rights because they already have good benefits is fallacious because without the bargaining rights the benefits can be reduced with far less pushback from workers.

    Private sector employment in the U.S. grew by 110,000 in October, but if that trend continues, given present population growth, the number of unemployed will increase from the current 14 million to 27 million by 2020.

      Oh, in case you didn’t get it from my previous response, your extrapolation is just plain stupid. Only roughly 50% of our population is actually part of the workforce, with the rest being stay at home parents, retirees, or children. If you compare job growth to expansion of the workforce and not the total population, you’ll find that at current rates, by 2020 the unemployment figure will be roughly… (wait for it) 14 million.

      If you’d pay attention to any halfway real news source even occasionally, you’d have heard economists say the same thing. Quit getting your data from retarded political commentators.

        US census states:
        There are 38 million black people
        11.4 million of them are on welfare, or 30%.
        (11.4 million / 38 million = .3 or 30%)

        There are 229 million white people, (hispanics counted as white)
        11.6 million of them are on welfare, or 5%.
        (11.6 / 229 = .05 or 5%)

        30% of black people are on welfare
        5% of white people are on welfare

    Who do you think leaked the sexual harassment scandal to Politico? My guess is Karl Rove. He wants Mitt to be the nominee for the Republican party.

    • tiredoflibbs November 2, 2011 at 7:36 pm #

      Nah, it was the Democrats.

      They are SCARED TO DEATH of a strong conservative black candidate. Cain goes against all the narratives the Democrats have about the black population.

      You can already see it in the news. You have the liberal media talking heads and the liberal politicians telling how “Herman Cain is a black person that knows his place.”, “Hermain Cain needs to put down the symbolic crack pipe.”, etc. etc. I even heard a caller on a local radio show complaining how “Herman Cain will dilute the black vote.”

      They are scared to death of Cain and are trying to stop him at all costs.

      Search the internet if you dare for more comments about Cain….

      …we know you won’t.

      • Cory November 2, 2011 at 7:54 pm #

        I’m scared to death of Cain, but it has nothing to do with his skin color. The guy’s big platform is a tax plan that punishes the poor and rewards the rich so thoroughly that it doesn’t even meet current income levels. What is there not to be scared about?

      • tiredoflibbs November 2, 2011 at 9:23 pm #

        Sorry cory, the liberal mantra is that if you are scared of the obAMATEUR, it is because he is black. This has been the theme since day one and has been regurgitated all over the leftist blogoshpere.

        You can’t run away from liberal tactics.

        BTW, I see bodie, jeffy, wally has chimed in with his usual poop flinging hoping something will stick. Sadly, for him his screed does not have the desired effect he wants.

        Liberals hate it when their own tactics are used against them!

        The attacks on Cain are coming from the Right as well, Tired. Are they scared to death of him, too?

        Looking at the current crop of Republican clowns in the running, the President will have no problem at all in crushing whomever is unlucky enough to win the nomination. Surely, there must be someone of merit that the GOP can russell up to make it a fair contest.

    Doesn’t Cain’s 100% pro-life but its a choice answer to abortion cause you any qualms?

    • doug November 3, 2011 at 10:57 am #

      It is the only legally correct answer that any President of the United States could make. I am 100% pro-life, however, I have no power under God to prevent individual people from murdering others. If there comes a time that God gives me foresight to know that someone is going to murder another and then asks of me to kill that potential murderer before they do, then I will have that power.

      Even our Emperor Obama with all of his edicts does not have that power. He can order you to buy health insurance, but you don’t have to. If you don’t buy the health insurance He can order you to pay a fine to the IRS, but you can still refuse. If Obama knew ahead of time that you would refuse, He could send his goons to your house and kill you before you actually refuse, so that he could say he has the power to force you to do his will.

  13. Jeremiah November 2, 2011 at 11:29 pm #

    6206j,

    Of course not!

    All Mr. Cain is saying is that – you have the choice to murder your child; but the government is not going to back your choice, or support your choice in the form of governmental funding. And there will be no such procedures procured within the confines of the United States of America.

    You will have to go elsewhere to do so.

        …You know, like you do every day.

        Poor pathetic drone doesn’t know the definition of “talking points”. I hate to break it to you drone, but those posted responses have been sourced here time and again.

        Your responses, however, the equivalent of rebuttal to them (your responses – just so you won’t get confused) are to scrape them off the bottom of our shoes.

      • tiredoflibbs November 3, 2011 at 10:11 pm #

        Gee, wally/monty/bodie/jeffy, again you cannot comprehend simple sentences.

        I was talking about your claim that the others posted talking points when those statements that they made were referenced here before and was not commenting your initial post. It is easy to copy and paste a news link. It is something else to do research in order to make a logical argument – something that is completely foreign to you.

        Of course, posting a “source” ONCE every fifty responses does not negate the other times you regurgitate your self-proclaimed statements and try to pass them off as facts.

        Wow, again you make a fool of yourself under this Wally alias – time to get a new one. Try elmo, or peter or barney or pick another and keep it. Well that would be a problem, eventually you would get banned because you will eventually resort to nothing but personal attacks (something you are close to doing now) since you cannot make sound, logical arguments or you would just not be able to stand the embarrassment of the poor reputation you would build up under it.

        Wow, I see that you cannot recognize the concept of irony, also.

        again, wally, since you cannot learn from previous failures…

        You keep repeating the same thing over and over and expect a different result.

        YOu have been caught in a lie again. No matter how many times you repeat yourself it won’t become true.

        I have explained it before and it is not my fault that you cannot understand simple sentences with your own statements as proof. It is like you don’t understand what you even write (or copy and paste).

        Pathetic.

        SO you finally admit to lying and using distraction as a tactic when you are caught at lying!

        A break-through!!!

        But then,again, you are set-back by posting a personal attack when you can’t spin your way out of your original lie.

        Also notice, you repeat the same action expecting a different result.

        Give it up, wally/bodie/monty/jeffy, you can’t escape from yourself.

        What is this new rant about me supposedly supporting Romney? For a while, a while back, I thought he looked like a pretty good choice. I was influenced enough by GMB to recognize his weaknesses and it has been a long long time since I said anything even remotely supportive of him.

        I was just commenting on the nonstop ranting and raving about him, the RDS we keep seeing here.

        And when you guys “respond” to things that were never said, you just sound like the RRL trolls who infest this blog and do the same thing.

        Mitt is not “my guy” and as for dolf’s silliness, well, it’s just dolf’s silliness. I guess that crystal ball of his is getting quite a workout, what with him having such insights into what does and does not matter to whom, and why. “I will blame the Amys and Clusters and Counts in the GOP who have real world experience, but ultimately just don’t care because their lives are only remotely impacted by the economy being a disaster.” is pretty funny, but nothing compared to “I won’t blame the Matts and Marks in the GOP, they don’t even have kids so their real world experience is practically nil.”

        Perhaps the little college in the desert doesn’t have anything but the Leftist Compendium of Infinitely Variable Definitions for dolf to look to, to figure out the meaning of things like “real world experience”. His fantasy world seems to be quite extensive, but quite creepy.

I’d like to see anyone of those fellows runnin’ for the republican nomination win. A lot of them I don’t agree with some of their views, but one thing I know, is that any one of them would be better than what we have in office right now…and not because they have an R after their name, but because of what they represent, and that’s a government of the people, by the people and for the people.

    Green – you rely on everybody knowing exactly what “scoamf” means, even to the point of posting a link, just to make it really clear. But you don’t type it out, because actually SAYING what you mean is censored here. Well hey – I typed it out, since I figure if it’s in your heart you may as well be up front about it.

    Of course we see where that goes. Apparently nobody reads the Gospels here – what’s in your heart is what actually matters. This is the blog of scribes and Pharisees, where righteousness is measured by appearances, not by actual intents and purposes.

    You can have it, my friend – if you can’t be plain spoken and have to resort to that kind of artifice then you’re in pretty sad shape here.

      Dennis, I think you’re painting with just a little bit too broad a brush, and some of the paint is getting stuck where it’s not supposed to.

      In my opinion, most of those who post here that are liberals do not only not adhere to the gospels, but that outright detest its teachings, much less “adhere” to them.

      I mean to coin atheism is to fight the hand that instructs and sustains every living creature upon the face of this earth.

      So take you brush, take it back to the store you bought it from and tell them you need the correct size, you made a mistake and got the wrong one.

      Oh I have typed it out. Only to have the post disappear. Sadly the post was needed to make the point I had intended.

      It’s nice to know that you know whats in my heart. Why don’t yopu go preach your nonesense somewhere else. You and Thomas and Wallace can all get together and talk about what a horrible person I am. i will even send you guys a cardboard likeness of my self so you can have something to throw darts at.

    Green, my point is that you and others here frequently lay claim to Christianity as part of your political package. By contrast your opponents are characterized as godless enemies of Christianity.

    Meanwhile you and others here resort to name-calling, often of a base kind that requires codes or acronyms to get past the censors, to characterize opponents both on this blog and our national leaders. Consequently it should neither surprise nor offend you that your religion is not taken seriously by your opponents. Your brand suffers from poor representation.

      Resort to name calling? Now that is biggest LOLzer of all. You want a list of names my side has been called without provocation?

      I’ll just start off with “Tea Bagger” I do hope you tender heart knows what that means. I’ll lrt you do the rest of research.

      You have sown it now you are reaping it.

        Ah, the “He started it!” defense that I used when I fought with my brothers when I was 9. Very clever! Only I’ve been repeatedly called names since the second I came to this blog, so it’s actually “Some people who have relatively similar ideologies as his started it!” I apparently reap what other people sow.

        Pretty lame Cory. That pretty much sums it up. Lame. You don’t want your precious president called names, maybe you should have your side lead by example.

        If seeing bams being called names offends you, I suggest you stay away from conservative blogs. If you feel you are not wanted here why not go with that feeling and quit posting here?

        None of us will miss you.
