Japanese crows are tiny.
When I lived in England, the crows that attacked rubbish bags on Saturday mornings wre enormous.

Laguna - "After all, what on earth is it they see in Gingrich that makes him preferable to Romney?"
Gingrich has been unfaithful to his first, and second wives, which sits just fine with conservatives' fake religious conservatism.
This is going from disastrous to catastrophic for GOP/TP chances.

Gingrich has years of baggage and flip flops that the Dems will aim at.
But Romney's different because he has years of baggage and flip flops that the Dems will aim at...hey!... ?? .

Went there on Sunday - crowded as heck!
Beautiful trees though.
That building down the end isn't what you think it is. :-)

What the heck was a U.S. airplane doing in Iranian airspace?
Unless they had permission, I agree with NeverSubmit - it's clearly a violation of international law.

Romney, is he really American?
‘Romney’ sounds distinctly European …….very suspicious.
Perhaps a Democrat PAC should follow the GOP’s example and launch a Birther Movement against ‘Romney’ to get him to front up with his real birth certificate (if he has one). Because let’s face it – John McCain was born in Panama so there’s likely other GOP candidates who also weren’t born in America.
This tactic worked pretty well for the GOP as a way to distract the American people from the real issue of creating jobs and keeping American’s minds off how competently the GOP destroyed the economy and pandered to their elite 1% paymasters.
Would any of the contenders on 'Republican Idol' care to comment?

Which non-electable flip-flopping conservative clown is leading now?
There were so many of them, it was getting difficult to remember, so a big thanks to all the others for bombing out and going down in flames so quickly so we could have some much needed clarity on the issue!

Yabits - "It is too bad, however, that conservatives will not admit their culpability in the fiasco, humble themselves a bit, and set an example of how to work together with a president elected by a wide majority of the American people to try to fix those problems."
Impossible. For conservatives, it's ALWAYS someone else's fault - even when the conservative is holding the bloodied knife.
Because in ConservativeWorld, "responsibility" means "anyone but me takes the fall."

Pretty funny how when conservative candidates’ campaigns implode through their own doing, conservatives start screaming it’s a “liberal” or “media” “plot”, which does nothing except successfully highlight their ongoing issues with reality and making themselves be subjected to yet another bunch of non-Americans having to waste time straightening out their warped opinions.
But the upside of this – and the conservatives’ choice of candidates – is it shows that conservatives still have a sense of humor. :-)
DS - " Look for President Romney"
Not going to happen. He'll be brought to his knees by the people he wants to vote for him.
Happens every time.
You see, the conservative establishment has about as much of a plan to win as Saddam Hussein had WMD. Conservatives have circled the wagons and are shooting at each other.
While President Obama and his team – and millions of libs – sit back and laugh ourselves silly.
Really, since when has self destruction ever been a “strategy”?
It’s not and never will be, but conservative candidates and their surrogates are going at it full tilt.
Only last week, conservatives HateMeister-in-Chief, Rush Limburgh came out in support of Cain. And look what happened.
Glug glug glug……..ditto for conservative presidential attempts in this election cycle.

While Cain “suspends” (read: quits) his campaign, libs everywhere suspend belief that any sensible American could actually support any players in this Republican Idol show.

Amazing how Cain just invented enemies at every turn instead of doing what any man of integrity would have done and blamed himself.
His past and his twisting and turning makes him responsible for his own defeat.
But looking back on his failed campaign, conservatives everywhere can hold their heads high that Cain upheld their proud tradition of failure, truth-twisting and hypocrisy.
That said, keep an eye out for his new book: "Herman Cain: How I successfully fooled conservatives.”
**What is a modern day conservative? **
It's supporting spreading freedom on one hand while supporting legislation to strip freedoms from women regarding their ability to decide what to do with their own bodies on the other.
It's about proclaiming their Christian-ness while not being bothered to follow Christian principles.
It's about ignoring and turning a blind eye to injustices, lies, deception and downright idiotic statements and claims made by people who represent you.
It's about claiming to be 'pro-life' while vocally supporting murder and wars in foreign lands.
No wonder the GOP is in a death spial.

Yabits - "That woman says that Cain is unfit to be president."
Seems to me that many conservatives on this site are unfit to be voters and have to be told - as usual - what is really happening by non-Americans. :-)

Talking Cain: Don't they always say, "Marriage is between 1 man and 1 woman"? Do conservatives even know what that means?
And Newt: He's made it clear he’s a liar, mean spirited and a complete opportunist. But at least he's unethical.
The only real choice for conservative voters in this presidential election is: which politician do you wish to be sold out by?

unreconstructed - I can feel your anger due to the fact that your conservative side basically - has no hope in heck of beating President Obama.
Maybe 2016.
Or 2020?
Good luck!?

Hilarious thing here is that these GOP/TP candidates are being taken down by their own side.
It’s like group suicide.
1/ They’re attacking each other: that’s conservatives attacking conservatives.
2/ They’re being taken down by the conservative media: every time Faux News talks about the latest conservative candidate’s scandal, it spreads bad news and HELPS people NOT to support these idiots.
3/ They’re are being taken down by the very fact that so many conservatives supported this pack of clowns in the first place. Let’s face it – if conservatives had supported candidates like Jon Huntsmans from the get go, they would have had a far better chance of beating President Obama.
As it stands, by putting up such a weak, pathetic bunch of fools, conservatives are kicking themselves in the head AND demolishing their own brand.
And that is something I just cannot for the life of me get my head around.
But it’s all due to the “Democratic Machine” and the “trumped-up accusations by the democrat activist media."
Ha ha ha, can’t stop laughing!! Sooooo funny. :-)

plasticmonkey - "The anti-intellectual wing of the GOP continues to field candidates who take pride in ignorance and simple-mindedness while deriding Obama and "liberals" for being elitist eggheads. The GOP has taken this tack because they know it appeals to a large segment of the American public who don't want to think too much. Some people, including me, are appalled by that strategy. That is the issue, not race."
Couldn't have said it better myself. This has nothing to do with race and eveything to do with ignorant, uninformed candidates propped up by people who really should know better.
To think that ANY thinking Amercan would consider ANY of these GOP/TP candidates bar Jon Huntsman to be a serious canidate for the world's most powerful job is just incredulous.
Absolutely a.m.a.z.i.n.g.
Don't conservatives have ANY pride for their country??

Amazingly, the more moral-free and ignorant the conservative candidate is, the more popular they become.
That's pretty funny. :-)
Only a couple more wheels left on the GOP/TP train wreck.

What a hypocrite. If Cain cared so much for his family, he wouldn’t have had these affairs in the first place.
Is this a Republican primary or a clown show? Only in today's GOP is a clown like this still a viable candidate. Who are/were his supporters?
A big winner here will be President Obama. Now that Cain has done a Sarah Palin and quit, the Republican field loses its only dose of racial diversity and leaves minority voters with a set of very white people to choose from.
Wow, with the GOP field stuck in a quicksand of its own scandals, flubs, and sheer mayhem, an otherwise vulnerable president seems to be getting a free pass from Republicans as they circle their wagons and commit suicide. Even with his own approval rating at a historically low 43 percent in the latest Gallup tracking poll, Obama still whips the generic Republican running against him.
When you look at it, the GOP/TP have done a great thing for America – and screwed themselves – by running sub-par candidates, almost all were never serious serious contenders for the POTUS job.
Cain and Bachmann were never never POTOS material, and neither are Perry or Gingrich, Santaurum or Paul. But now we’ve got Mr. 1%-flipflopping-Romney and Mr. Tiffany-admitted adulterer-ethically challenged Speaker-Gingrich.
I thought the Tea Party said they were going to "change things." Remember they were shouting that last year? They were going to "really shake things up" in Washington. But besides getting U.S. credit lowered for the first time in America’s history, trying to abolish Medicare, cut taxes even more for the wealthy and eliminate 2.1 American jobs・(all proposals in Ryan's budget),・who are their candidates for POTUS? It’s pretty clear – it’s the same old, same old Republicans: Gingrich and Romeny. Nothing new here. Nobody qualified here. I think we are looking at a possible demise of the GOP/TP – and it’s all their own fault and it’s all of their own doing – just look at the lineup of fools (not including Jon Huntsman) they put up.
Sayonara GOP/TP. It wasn't nice knowing you. Once you're gone, starting in 2012 and every election after that, the USA and Americans can move on into a much brighter, Democratic future.
If only there was an intellectual smart Commander-in-Chief who knows foreign policy, loves his first and only wife, and is a Christian... oh wait! Obama '12.
