This is a guy who compares homosexuality to a guy fucking a dog

Toast 01-04-2012 01:47 AM

WTF Iowa!?!

TuralyonW3 01-04-2012 01:49 AM

Romney is such a fake penis. He's standing up there breaking down the verses to America the beautiful

Ha Matthews calls him a merchandiser selling product. "he's out of the hall of presidents, he doesn't even have a heart"

Sanatorium defending sodomy laws:

Quote:

"If the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual sex within your home, then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery. You have the right to anything."

"Whether it's polygamy, whether it's adultery, whether it's sodomy, all of those things, are antithetical to a healthy, stable, traditional family."

I've disconnected a bit from politics, but it couldnt have been enough that either of these are close to being accurate.

Future Boy 01-04-2012 02:25 AM

Also, lucky for santorum he hit his notromney peak at the right time.

exactly

my god this is fucking ridiculous

Eulogy 01-04-2012 02:33 AM

did i mention that i hate everyone

Eulogy 01-04-2012 02:35 AM

rick santorum

and apparently gingrich is devoting his campaign to attacking romney now. 'cause i guess he's real bitter.

there's no way santorum beats romney in new hampshire... but south carolina? why not? then what happens?

OUR POLITICAL SYSTEM IS TOTALLY FUCKED.

Future Boy 01-04-2012 02:35 AM

i dont see why you're so upset about this

i just can't understand it

i know iowa is not representative of the country but the fact that 25% of caucus-goers decided that rick santorum was their guy is mildly upsetting, isn't it?

rick santorum?? really??

Future Boy 01-04-2012 02:37 AM

its not like ron paul won

TuralyonW3 01-04-2012 02:37 AM

ONE VOTE separation at 99% lol

what i meant was if romney bombed iowa it would loosen his grounding in south carolina and florida, which are flimsy to begin with.

TuralyonW3 01-04-2012 03:26 AM

Looks like Romney wins by 14 votes

Edit: make that 8 votes

TuralyonW3 01-04-2012 03:41 AM

Mitt Romney in Iowa:

2008: 30,021 votes
2012: 30,015 votes

After spending millions and millions. Lol

Future Boy 01-04-2012 04:18 AM

2008: 2nd
2012: 1st

I'm looking for the lol. Did he run against the same people? He spent way less this time around so...

Was he expected to win this in a walk? I thought up until the last week he was expected to come in 2nd.

TuralyonW3 01-04-2012 04:49 AM

The lol is the gops carousel succession of anyone but Romney candidates. Perry, Cain, Gingrich, Paul and Santorum all spiked and fell in that order (Santorum fall pending)

Future Boy 01-04-2012 05:17 AM

oh so completely unrelated to the rest of the post. k

His speech last night was the most classless I've ever heard by a campaigning politician. He is a disgusting person that will torpedo anyone who attempts to bypass him or kick his ass in a race.

reprise85 01-04-2012 10:58 AM

Oh yeah, after I posted that I watched about five minutes of his speech. So surreal that it's all serious.

Tchocky 01-04-2012 06:28 PM

Bachmann has suspended her campaign. Another batshit crazy one bites the dust.

Rick Santorum...LOL. The fundies are really gonna prop up this douchbag just to spite Romney, huh. Have fun getting your ass handed to you in the general, Republicans.

duovamp 01-04-2012 08:40 PM

Just keep in mind Huckabee won 4 years ago and let that explain this entire thing. Iowa republicans are Bible-butt-fucking retards.

Money doesn't get you what it used to.

Oh and Newt Gingrich is a piece of shit.

only 5% of Iowans voted in the GOP primary. think about that for a minute. 122,000 overwhelmingly white, conservative, christian, rural people got to decide who the top couple of GOP primary campaigners will be for the rest of the nation (which is made up of 300,000,000 racially diverse, mostly urban/suburban citizens. So by the time New York, California, etc. get to vote in primaries, most of the republican candidates will be out of the race.


Perry and Romney's financial backers spent $164 per voter! That got Perry ziltch and all Romney got out of it was the same percentage of voter that he got 4 years ago in Iowa (when Walnuts McCain won).

what a fucking stupid spectacle. all narrated by a conservative mainstream media that supports and promotes the fiction of democracy in Iowa and New Hampshire.


the entire electoral system, from the primaries to the Electoral College is a giant god damn fucking joke. The system is rigged to pick status quo conservative candidates in both parties.


The republican primary is over. Romney will be the candidate for the General election. The next half of a year is nothing but a big show to make all the plebes think there's nobody behind the curtain.

:rolleyes:

MyOneAndOnly 01-05-2012 01:52 PM

Oh, and Ron Paul is fucking crazy.

:hanging:
