    But this is no ordinary winter.

    This is a “Global Warming” winter.

    Polar Vortex winter. That’s what they came up with when folks started realizing its friggin cold out there and they were told that by now we’d all be cinders.

    Good morning Hamsters. Currently 35 and darned cold, even windless. Mayhap that’s because of the moisture load in the atmosphere today and the freezing precip weather watch. Not supposed to be much precip, but ice is ice, and a little in the wrong places makes you slide a long way. Be careful out there, as the high is to be only in the 30s.
    Kin from Madison set to arrive tomorrow, all depending on whether O’Hare is mostly functioning. Or wherever their plane is coming from is functioning. Chicago forecast is for 80% chance of snow, 1-3 inch accumulation. In anticipation they will make it, today will be busy preparing. 🙂
    God’s sense of humor continues to be evident.

    Good morning, Couch Critters. It’s supposed to make it to mid-40s in my part of town. I’m getting cabin fever from avoiding going out in the cold, so I’m gonna bundle up and head for Krogers after breakfast.

    #7 TT: Unfortunately the Ds have no concept of absolute morality, absolute law, or any notion whatsoever of right and wrong; only what is good for our party today and tomorrow it may be different. Even worse, the Rs are mostly a bunch of sniveling whiners afraid of their own shadow. There are lots of Ds and members of the current occupant of the White House admin (LIKE ERIC HOLDER) that need to go to prison for high crimes. Until the Ds who are guilty of blatant abuse of office are imprisoned, this garbage will continue until our country is flowing down the sewer pipe.

    IN keeping with the O/C theme Joe The Dip$#it Biden is still considering a run for the presidency in 2016.

    A decision on whether to seek the Democratic presidential nomination will come next summer, Vice President Joe Biden told CNN Friday.
    “There may be reasons I don’t run, but there’s no obvious reason for me why I think I should not run,” he said on CNN’s “New Day.”

    The moron (with apologies to the mentally impaired from birth) has been wrong on every issue in the last 30 years and that is no reason not to run? Please, oh please run just for the comedy of it and maybe the next Casper Milquetoast R candidate can win this time. . . .

    Don’t waste your money on comedy and satire. Just take a look around the world on any given day.

    In the murky realm of industrial music, pioneering Canadian band Skinny Puppy has long been revered among the scene’s patron saints. But if you’re going to use their music for torture, you’re going to have to pay up.
    It was revealed today (Feb. 6) that the band, which paved the way for acts like Marilyn Manson and Nine Inch Nails, has sent a bill in the devilish amount of $666,000 to the Pentagon after learning that its music is being used as a form of torture during interrogations at Guantanamo Bay.

    Naked Zombie Art

    “This is a person who is an outsider, he’s displaced,” said artist Tony Matelli. “So I thought the reaction would be empathy.”
    But the reaction on Wellesley’s campus is mixed.
    “I don’t know if it’s exactly appropriate for a college campus,” one student told WBZ-TV. “I would rather the statue of like Washington or Abraham Lincoln you know something more formal.”
    Some students say the sculpture makes them uncomfortable and conjures images of sexual assault.

    Legalized Child Abuse

    A six-year-old boy who went to school with a bag of Mini Cheddars in his packed lunch has been suspended for four days after teachers said it contravened its healthy eating policy.
    Riley Pearson, from Colnbrook, near Slough, was excluded from Colnbrook C of E Primary School after teachers discovered the snack and called in his parents.

    I think so. I think he is positioning himself for that run right now. Tell me how many governors go to the land of the lost to publicly woo the industries in those states? Every time he makes a move for a gun manufacturer or whatever it gets national attention and he gets his 30 second policy soundbyte advertised around the country. Good move actually because of the short attention spans in the country most folks will only remember the latest moves and forget his goofy act in the debates.

    Do you think that Texas moving the pres primary into March with winner take all will make a positive difference and if yes, by how much?

    This all depends on who wins whether it is positive or not… how much also depends on the who part. IMO having the Texas primary moved to March will negate some of that east coast nonsense. What is more bothersome to me is that if Texas moves to March the other states are going to move to March also. More likely we are going to see a Mega Super Tuesday early in the process. I do think it will weed out the also rans much more quickly and the front runners will be determined within a matter of weeks rather than months.

    I think this is a good thing and needs to be coupled with moving the convention up to June or even May. This gives the Rs more of a chance to answer the voluminous charges fabricated by the D controlled mediots. Having Texas vote early will definitely bolster the more conservative side of the ticket and this will definitely help get more conservatives elected.

    Doesn’t matter really. Have you ever been to a political rally and heard the stump speeches? They are nothing more than a compilation of the soundbytes in their ads. Anyway the media is going to do what they do no matter how much time is available to them. Politics has degenerated into a game of NIGYSOB and we, the electorate, never really hear comprehensive explanations of policies. Rather we get treated to cow pie throwing contests and hear all the gory details about strapping a dog to the top of the car.
    One could also argue that it gives the Republicans more time to step on their own………… idealism (yeah that is a good word…idealism) and they will

    Yeah, I know he ain’t. He may be dumb but he ain’t stupid. But the fact that he’s leading the pack at this snapshot in time confirms to me that the electorate has pretty much lost their collective minds.

    Actually, it gets worse than that.
    Here’s the thing guys—
    If we’re going to end this crap, we’re going to have to accept the radically different.
    That means Rand Paul or Ted Cruz. (and I would love a Paul/Cruz or Cruz/Paul ticket).
    Or we can compromise on Scott Walker and hope that he doesn’t turn into a Marco Rubio.

    Seriously can people get any more petty. “Someone” got offended at “Computers On Wheels” so the company renamed them “Workstations On Wheels”. ……….. Note the strategic placement of the caps.

    I agree with your choices. The first thing someone needs to do is kidnap Karl Rove and sequester him away in some remote missile silo in Montana with a box of bonbons and reruns of him and Hannity.

    These are desperate times and people will do desperate things. The electorate is suffering from shock that they actively supported or passively stood by as the nation re-elected the most disastrous man to occupy the office in post-war America.

  24. squawkbox Avatar

    I think the Romney poll is contrived and bunk. Sure the mediots are going to toss different names in there. I think the poll is more of a gauge of who is disliked rather than some indication of front ruiner status. There are plenty of examples out there where unnamed candidates (other) out poll different people.

  25. squawkbox Avatar

    BTW desperation is the byword now days. How many times have we seen “conservatives” glom onto the latest and greatest new guy on the block because he sounded so good. Rubio should be an object lesson to those pitfalls. However, people are lazy and want a quick fix and do not wish to take the time to vet much less wait for someone to show their metal.

    RE: Romney
    I think Mitt is refurbishing his public image as an elder statesman and wise man (to those who will admit he was right about all the negative things he said about Obama) so that his endorsement will carry enough weight he might be able to extract some policy promises out of a candidate he would publicly support.
    If I were in his shoes, that is what I would do.

  27. squawkbox Avatar

    I think Hamous and Texpat should run. I think they stand for everything I agree with
    1. When one light turns red they all should be red
    2. No one younger than the three of us should be allowed to drive (how old are you Hamous?)
    3. The only form of political correctness allowed will be Meatless Fridays for Catholics
    /Everything else will be voluntary
    4. All pants will be pulled up and suspended with either a belt or suspenders.

    The righteous moonbats at Google don’t approve of Putin not being on board with the homosexual agenda. Here’s what the homepage looks like now that the Olympics are underway in Sochi…

    Link here.

    It’s not enough to politicize absolutely everything. Moonbats have to homosexualize absolutely everything. They won’t rest until there is no longer a single corner of reality that doesn’t make you queasy.

    It has to be Cruz/Paul. Much as I’ve liked lots of what Rand Paul has done, he’s got a screw loose — but not as bad as his Pappy — and can’t be trusted on some issues. e.g. open borders. But I’d take him as VP.

    #40 Within one month after inauguration day the unemployment will skyrocket as we eliminate several cabinet-level departments:
    Agriculture
    Commerce
    Education
    HUD
    Energy
    and probably a couple of others, along with all the associated onerous regulations. Once the dust settles everyone will be asking “Why did we need those?”

    The problem with that is the Pubbies have to spend money here in TX they could have spent elsewhere although, given the way she’s running her campaign, they may be able to cut loose of a couple hundred thousand that they figured they might need and won’t now.
    It would be cool of her primary opponent won.

    Got the guest room almost ready for kinfolk tomorrow, with much of the fall and Christmas
    decoration items smothering the bed put in boxes and trundled into the bedroom/hobby room, and a few put away. I’ll worry about them tomorrow or later. Not a good idea to walk into the hobby room in the dark, however, since the additional stuff on the floor is in the usual pathway. Serious need to sort it and fill boxes for donation pickup.
