She said masturbation is selfish... She wants us to spread our love and not waste good semen... I agree!
Unless I missed it, I'd be curious to know what our resident tea partier thumbs thinks about this candidate for the US Senate. Does this represent the kind of change and candidate the tea party people have in mind? Really?
I was actually pulling for Mike Castle since more liberal to moderate Republicans are needed. Few on this board have any clue as to how many moderates and liberals (but fiscal conservatives nonetheless) there are in the tea parties, and I no longer really care since the movement is alive, well and growing. However, that said, I think the media is having too much fun with a statement from about 15 years ago when O'Donnell was about 20. I'm very glad facebook, youtube, etc. was not around when I was 20 doing stupid stuff. BTW, if you weren't doing and saying stupid stuff in your youth, you weren't alive.
so, which is crazier- to believe it's wrong to stimulate yourself, or to spend $1T to "stimulate" the economy. although you get screwed in the latter instance, you can't say you enjoyed it.
Tea parties, not Tea Party -- some backed different candidates. For example, Tea Party Advocates championed Tarkanian over Angle in Nevada because he was the more moderate and had a better chance of winning. As I said, currently there are not enough moderate and liberal Republicans around. The two Maine senators would have been good example, but Snowe lost a lot of support when she defected on the health care vote.
speaking of Snowe -- Snowe sounds off Few Republican lawmakers were as stung by Rep. Mike Castle's surprising loss to his conservative GOP opponent as Maine Republican Sen. Olympia Snowe. In a hallway just off the Senate floor Thursday afternoon, she sounded off about her place as a moderate in the GOP, and voter anger she says she understands. Visibly sad, Snowe called Castle "an outstanding public servant who was committed to the common good of his state and country." The longer Snowe talked about the state of the GOP and the Tea Party movement, the more riled up she got. "Understand, there are a lot of issues that, for example, in the Tea Party that they raise that are legitimate issues. Did we abandon our basic principles of fiscal responsibility? Absolutely. I was arguing those points during the Bush administration," Snowe said emphatically, "I made those very arguments." "Congress isn't working right and it's not working well, and I share that frustration and anger. They're angry? So am I," Snowe said as her voice got louder, "I'm angry, because I work here ever day and I want things to be different. I'm here to solve problems to make people happy, not to make them sad and angry," Snowe insisted. And what does Castle's loss tell Snowe about whether there's a place for moderates like her in the GOP? "Well there are fewer of us so that goes without saying," Snowe said, but then immediately argued that "we can't be endangered if you want to be a majority party." "It doesn't stand to reason that the Republican Party would want to exclude moderate Republicans if they want to be a majority party. Those are mutually exclusive propositions," Snowe said. At times, as the Maine Republican talked about this issue, she became exasperated. "Ideological purity at 100 percent is a utopian world and I don't know who lives in utopia. I've never lived in utopia," said Snowe. I asked about the argument her GOP colleague Sen. Jim DeMint made to me a day earlier in his office, that Americans no longer want what he called "mushy" lawmakers in the middle. ---------------- How you plan to win national elections by purifying the party is beyond me.
Sounds to me like you are saying the Tea Party is just the fringe right without the moderates. Slander!
