Chris Christie On Obama's Super Committee Involvement: 'What The Hell Are We Paying You For?'

Someone asked if I "know for sure that he doesn't have a medical condition?­" No, I don't, but I should; we all should - because it's important. Surely Christie must know that all of his messages about 'responsib­ility' are tainted until he tells us all - especially our kids - why the heck they should listen to him about being 'responsib­le'.

The Numpty

Mitt Romney's Awkward Exchanges With Humans

"When Romney entered the 2008 presidential race, he released a 13-minute video of his family aimed at humanizing him. The video, titled 'The Decision,' went viral, but not for the reasons Romney wanted. The short film is narrated mostly by his wife Anne Romney, who comes across as charming, personable and engaging, while the rest of the scene gives off a cloying whiff of privilege, cloister and artificiality.

Mitt sits down with his family to discuss the pros and cons of running for president, although Anne had already admitted that the decision had basically been made earlier, undermining the conceit of the filmed family gathering. Mitt, apparently unable to behave informally even with his family, whips out a white legal pad to take notes on his family's discussion. 'Let me ask: How do you minimize the downsides?' the business executive asks his sons and daughters.

Tagg Romney, who suggests he runs, has one warning for his pop: 'The country may think of you as a laughing stock.'"

Mitt Romney is an apparition from an American future without inheritance taxes - where the clueless wives and idiot children of the uber-wealthy will control vast tracts of the political landscape and most of the nation's cash. Horrendous.

Don Imus: Newt Gingrich Is 'Disgusting' And 'A Fat Repulsive Pig'

I'm a flaming progressiv­e, yet one of my favorite vices was watching 'Imus in the Morning' during its last 2 years on MSNBC. His passionate championin­g of the things he was passionate­ly interested in was relentless­. He loved of the books that moved him, and he was near rapture with the music that thrilled him, and he was totally unable to be reasonable about the things that really bothered him. He could rarely resist any chance to let the hot words fly out of his throat and singe those he considered phony - the worst sin in the Imus universe, so I am not at all surprised that Gingrich is a special target for the Imus venom... Newt will never catch a break with a master crap detector like Imus.

Newt Gingrich Unveils Alternative To Social Security In New Hampshire

The key benefit to the American way of life that Social Security offers is the 'security' that enables people to feel safe and optimistic enough to buy goods in our consumer society. Remove the 'security' and you alter, and maybe even lose, the economy of America.
