Apparently you are the one who can't read. To wit, Perry asked for aid and got what he asked for. What part of this is not clear??? The world wonders.... Seneca

“Lady Nancy Astor: Winston, if you were my husband, I'd poison your tea. Churchill: Nancy, if I were your husband, I'd drink it.”

Classic Texas politics of distraction, While Texas wallows in about a $25 billion shortfall, the politicians pass stuff like this. BTW-they also granted tax BREAKS to chewin' tobacco, big yachts, bee keepers, and well as some others. Oh, and they gave $25 million per year to billionaire Red...

These claims by Perry and others are at best misleading. FEMA is providing Tx with lots of grants, equal to what Perry asked for. Perry did not need to ask Obama as FEMA had the authority to grant Perry's requests and did so. From the Ft Worth paper: ""This administration, through...

Rick "Goodhair" Perry's prayer for rain did not work. On Tuesday, 5/10, a local weather guy along with about 20 people who apparently have no life, got together on the San Antonio Riverwalk and did a rain dance. Two days later, San Antonio got an inch of rain...

You have too hard a head when you ignore what the leaders said. RE> abolition, to what do you refer? Congress offered it in the form of the the Corwin Amendment: ""No Amendment shall be made to the Constitution which will authorize or give to Congress the power to abolish or interfere...

No question Lincoln thought of deportation . However, when do plan to acknowledge that the leaders of the CSA state slavery was the prime causus belli?

Then how come the leaders of the CSA, the declarations of the states, and a Major General all say otherwise.?

I'm not sure which offer to avert war you refer to. Is it Crittenden Compromise, the Peace Conference, Clay's Compromise of 1850 or another one? It was illegal for Lincoln to emancipate slaves in the United Sates as Art 4 of the Constitution was in effect; it was repealed by the 13th...

The songs sung by the grunts tell us a lot. I've already posted one of the songs sung by the "Wide Awakes". The "anthem" of the northern army was the famous "Battle Hymn of the Republic"by Julia Ward Howe. It's first verse is known by almost everyone: "Mine eyes have seen the glory of...

Wrong!!! Simply put, Obama ran the greatest scam in history. See, I've seen solid evidence on some secret websites where the true LFBC is posted. Turns out our commie loving, Muslim President was only 34 years old when elected. All this fuss over his BC, blowing up fellow Muslims, killing...

Using your logic leads to the conclusion that the Constitution, Dec of Ind.,etc are not really true. The WMD thing was an admitted error in intelligence not the declared intent of a new nation as were the documents I posted. Where are the docs from the southern leaders declaring going to...

fwiw, RCP publishes an average of polls and IMO, this is the best measure. It shows Obama having a51.7% favorable rating and a 42.4% unfavorable. No doubt, getting bin Laden helped as did the Dems meme that the GOP was destroying Medicare. I have no idea how AP could have rigged their...

Sorry that I cut it off; here it is: " Do you consider yourself a Democrat, a Republican, an Independent, or none of these? [IF “DEMOCRAT,” ASK:] Do you consider yourself a strong or moderate Democrat? [IF “REPUBLICAN,” ASK:] Do you consider yourself a strong or moderate...

My favorite by the VP of the CSA, Alexander H. Stephens given 3/21/1861 " But not to be tedious in enumerating the numerous changes for the better, allow me to allude to one other-though last, not least: the new Constitution has put at rest forever all the agitating questions relating to...

It's even funnier to claim it wasn't about slavery when you read the primary documents such as the following: "A Declaration of the Immediate Causes which Induce and Justify the Secession of the State of Mississippi from the Federal Union. In the momentous step which our State has taken of...

Wasn't my hypotheses; it belongs to the paper's author from Utah.. My hypothesis is only we should not shy away from studying the relationship between genetics and intelligence and I cited the Utah paper as an example. God help anyone who does this research in our PC environment. I have no...

I thought the discussion was about the AP poll. My opinion which is formed by looking at all the data is that about half the country like the job Obama is doing. I did not know we were talking about direction of the country too. Here is the raw data from AP that I think contradicts Morris:

Here is what I see when looking at the AP data re. party ID: Oct 2010: 48% Republican 42% Democrat May 2011: 29% Rep. 46% Dem. So, AP is noting a down trend in the people who say they are Republican. Other polls have it closer to an even...

Yes. BTW-what is it you don't like about the AP-GfK poll? I hope you are not mixing the observed results vs what you think they ought to be. The Gallup poll sheds some more light on the current trend: Republicans have shifted to favor Obama. Of course, we Americans are a fickle...
