Considering Ron Paul is an Alex Jones follower and 9-11 Truther, his designation of Santorum as a conspiracy theorist is, well, kinda silly…

I know it’s going to be a sure pick-up for the Democrats, however, she did untold damage to the image and moral of the Republican Party for years.  Only one person voted with Democrats more than Snowe last year.  That was Susan Collins.

(RawStory)…Sen. Olympia Snowe, a moderate Republican from Maine, announced Tuesday that she would not seek re-election in 2012 because of the increasing polarization in Washington.

“After an extraordinary amount of reflection and consideration, I am announcing today that I will not be a candidate for re-election to the United States Senate,” she said in a prepared statement.    (more…)

Neal Cavuto just spoke to Mitt Romney, and Cavuto put him on the spot regarding whether or not he and Paul are working in cahoots.    Watch and listen to Mitt’s nervous laughter and stammered reply.  Convincing much?

(NewYorkTimes) Last Wednesday in the White House briefing room, the administration’s press secretary, Jay Carney, opened on a somber note, citing the deaths of Marie Colvin and Anthony Shadid, two reporters who had died “in order to bring truth” while reporting in Syria.

Jake Tapper, the White House correspondent for ABC News, pointed out that the administration had lauded brave reporting in distant lands more than once and then asked, “How does that square with the fact that this administration has been so aggressively trying to stop aggressive journalism in the United States by using the Espionage Act to take whistle-blowers to court?” (more…)

NEWARK, NJ – An airplane made an emergency landing at Newark Liberty International Airport Monday evening because of a nose gear problem, and passengers were forced to exit the plane on emergency chutes, according to authorities.

The pilot on United Airlines’ Shuttle America flight 5124 from Atlanta to Newark radioed in an issue with its front wheel shortly before its scheduled touchdown at Newark Airport, according to FAA spokeswoman Arlene Salac. An indicator light had gone off in the cockpit of the Embraer 170 airplane, pointing to unsafe gear. (more…)

We’ll watch with interest how the Michigan and Arizona primary race shapes up tonight and we’ll post a thread later on the election results to follow and share.

Mittens is incredibly detached from the everyday common sense principles, concerns and considerations of the general public.  So far detached from real people that if light were  eminating from where us regular people live it could never catch up to him.   He is so incredibly disconnected that even when he knows his words are going to be strenuously critiqued for elitist tonnation he just can’t help himself because it is, in its purest sense, who he is; and you just can’t change that.

*Note Disclaimer* I don’t know the political affiliation of the commentator in the video, but regardless of his ideology the point he makes is absolutely correct.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †
