I saw a really good example of Herman Cain's foreign policy experience. Yeah, he makes sarah palin look good.

Yeah, if you can't even remember how much your worth within a million or so, you've got some accounting issues that should preclude you from holding any office.

So Newt is the new flavor of the month. I like what was stated upthread; the "anti-Romney." Newt's rise will be medioric but his fall will be spectacular. You just don't get away with being that much of a skeeve unscathed.

I agree with a comment upthread. I wonder how the cleaning staff didn't find the camera. I wonder if they weren't bribed to leave the cameras there. Either that, or the cleaning staff did a really poor job. Eww.

I don't think an equus fetish counts as horseplay.
This sounds horrific.
A friend of mine from Philly wrote a post on Facebook, titled "Say it ain't so, Joe."
He is really, like a lot of us, having a hard time, seeing JoePa in this new light. Joe was an educator of young men. He wasn't just a coach, he was a molder of men. He was a good Catholic. He was humble, up until a few years ago, he walked across campus to home games from his home. He was a real role model.
Real role models don't turn a blind eye. When they report something, they don't just kick the problem upstairs, they follow through, because they are the molder's of men and the molder's of men lead by example..
It was really detailed. I didn't do it justice. He's really sick over this. Torn between wanting to believe something versus accepting the truth.
I think a lot of people in Pennsylvania and throughout the country, if you liked college football, are going through those conflicting emotions regarding Joe Paterno.

What? No William Ayers reference. You are slipping. Why back in the good ol' days, you would have thrown in a William Ayers reference AND a tie pin notice to boot. What's happening to you? I think your obsession with the president is starting to wear you down. You are a shell of your former self.

Europe. They get his jokes better. Unlike your dear leader who Ms. Merckel obviosly was repulsed by.
The truth is your dear leader took our country's reputation and ran it into the dirt. He turned us into bullies. Now you, being a weak neo-con, see this as a good thing. It's your first chance to associate yourself with something strong. You don't see past your own pathetic little ego gratification that it is bad for our country to be portrayed as a bully.
Obama has gone a long way to alleviate that. We are on far better terms with countries across the planet. The only countries that liked bush are the ones he donated heavily to the AIDS cause to. That's it. Every other country on the planet either sided with him but feared him or hated him.

Actually, there aren't. They all went to Dhubai with the Halliburton Headquarters. That patriotic neo-con run company.

So let me get this straight. Herman who has never held a political office, somehow has more presidential experience than our current sitting president. THAT'S what your saying?
yokohamarider, I'm laughing at you. Not with. At. That was funny.

If there is a bright side for Herman in all this, it's that the sexual harassment allegations have completely distracted the press from his campaign finance issues.

You couldn't tie William Ayers in there too? What? No Rev. Wright? You are really off you're game. Weak. Why don't you go back to stalking. That was almost funner.

Mitt Romney's religion should have no bearing on this presidential race. Mitt Romney's inability to stick to a position is what should be brought to bear in this presidential race.

I don't think the Marines are going to have a hard time finding volunteers to go to Australia. The Navy sure doesn't.

This should really energize the economy of Darwin, which if memory serves, could use it. As was stated upthread, Darwin doesn't have the greatest of nightlife. The infusion of the Marines will change that and the local housing economy should really benefit as well as Uncle Sam always pays premium rent.

While I'm not 3 reallys worth, I wanted to see Eddie host too.
An interesting conversation came up about Eddie Murphy a few months ago on ESPN. He's the only Murphy you can think of that doesn't go by "Murph."

Wait a minute here. I just tried to give Sioux Chief a thumbs up, Good. No matter how I tried, I couldn't. But when I tried to give him a thumb's down, it gave him TWO thumbs down.
What kind of Mickey Mouse B.S. is that?
This kind of thing never happened under the ownership of he shall not be named (rhymes with mevlin).
