Politics makes me nuts and ads like this make me even nuttier. Romney, who I dont care for, is no different, no worse in what has become common business practices in a post-deregulation economic society. Romney is no different than Cheney was at Halliburton or half of Obama's cabinent was at Goldman Sacks.

What makes me twitch, is when someone, like Newt, ( who, btw, reminds me of a south park character) who was an big part the republican machine that set up this "new" business environment, trying to distance themselves from that which they created and trying to indict those who took full advantage of their creation as being "bad" people.

You created it. Others took full advantage of it. To me, if you refuse to take responsibility for what you created, you have no right to condemn those used it to their own advantage.

I am going to be bald before this election is over.

Bill Maher cracks me up.

Maher: Santorum thinks about gay sex more than a dildo salesman

Bill Maher on Thursday said that there was a connection between Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum’s sexual frustration and his desire to bomb Iran.

In an interview with Chelsea Handler, Maher explained that former candidate Herman Cain was scheduled to appear on an upcoming episode of his HBO show.

“I like Herman Cain,” Maher admitted. “You know, I said to him, I said, “Look, I don’t like hate your fucking guts like I hate Newt Gingrich.’ I mean, I really don’t like him.”

“No, I hate Newt Gingrich,” Handler agreed. “And everyone watching also hates them, OK?”

Mayer said, however, that former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum was the most ridiculous candidate because of his views on gay rights.

“He wears a sweater vest everywhere, which is proof that he does not have one gay friend,” Maher noted. “This guy thinks about gay sex more than any gay man in America. There’s a guy down in West Hollywood working at Dorothy’s and Dildos who does not think about gay sex as much as Rick Santorum.”

“Also, [he] wants to bomb Iran,” the comedian continued. “And I think people who are sexually frustrated want to bomb other countries. I really think there’s a connection there. I think this guy is more backed up than [Interstate] 405.”

So funny.

I just watched tonight's Real Time and Bill didn't disappoint.
He brought up something that Santorum said within the past few days about Mitt Romney:

[Santorum] said the party can win back the White House only by offering a “clear contrast” with President Obama. “We need contrasts,” Mr. Santorum said, “not just a paler shade of what we have.”

Classy.
