I think everyone with even the least amount of intelligence realizes that this is a true problem. Many states (primarily in the south) are useless and full of uneducated and incompetent people. The next step is to solve the problem.

She didn't characterize Dubya's intellect, but I think that she implied it with that statement.

I agree that we don't need dynasties in this country, no matter what the family name might be.

She also said that she does not want Jeb to run and that the country needs to fresh mind from a new family.

why is that a problem for us? we live in nj. how did this thread turn into some weird poke at the south fest? I don't care about the south. you guys think we spend too much money helping the south, then cut Medicaid.

my tea party is joining with a bunch of other tea parties to basically say that if another McCain or Romney is nominated, they wont support the republican candidate. im on board. if Christie gets nominated, I wont be voting for him. ill vote libertarian.

We could... or we can actually find a solution to the problem. Short-term thinkers, like yourself, that push for band-aid solutions are not having a positive impact on the nation... as much as you would like to think that you are.

I didn't say anything about parties. Why are you bringing political affiliation into a response to my post? There's a politics forums if you want to discuss that.

oh wise njbest, mr long term thinker with his brilliant "we need solutions to the problem" declaration. that's really insightful. who would think that solutions would be needed? you want to add absolutely nothing to the conversation and pretend to be adding all this brilliant insight. hey, maybe you should insult the residents of the south a little more because that is really helpful. its funny how empty of any thought your posts are. so you say my short term band aid solutions aren't helpful, what exactly are my short term band aid solutions? you don't even know what you are talking about, you just wanted to insult me because when low information people don't know anything, they insult other people.

I don't care if you are or aren't talking about parties. this line of discussion started with an attack on the tea party and im bringing it back to that. you don't like that? too bad. chris chrstie is governor of nj and he plans to run for president, this thread is political whether you like it or not.

I didn't insult the south. I stated facts and concerns about the south. It is interesting that you have now turned to personal insults. I guess you ran out of real substance to talk about?

Talk about hypocrisy. Just earlier today you had concerns about EBWick's remarks and told them to discuss it in another forum. But when I say the same thing to do, you go all offensive. This is very telling of the kind of person you are. Your hyprocrisy is not an admirable trait.

Tin foil hat vs rabid blindness and deep devotion.

Rant? really? Your comments qualify as a rant; no refuting theory or facts and full of exagerated emotion.
Hurl an insult and your spent.

Your fear that you would end up in the Bergen pines is probably a childhood fear of reading and comnprehension. Hope you don't play with your ipad and drive. Best to take the train.

Inattention to the supression of political opposition by federal agencies under Obama will ensure you end up someplace far more sinister than the Bergen Pines.

Cmon admit it. You only got this political when a Kenyan socialist with a fake Hawaiian birth certificate became the boss. As Bush was running up trillions in debt and spying on us, you were wrapped up in American Idol.

you insulted the south and you insulted me. you are also saying back to me exactly what I said to you. that's an interesting tactic but it doesn't change the fact that you are the one insulting and offering nothing to the conversation.

I don't really see why you would take part in a conversation like this. you just want to talk to people who think exactly like you do so that you can insult groups of people and never offer intelligent thoughts of your own. "oh you don't agree with me, that's because you are a short term thinker" "oh the south is full of useless, incompetent and uneducated people" so I guess we shouldn't listen to any of them right njbest? I guess it makes you feel better to insult an entire region of our country and then pretend you are being helpful because you said "we need solutions."

Must be sad, so very sad to live in darkness and fear and in the past...... and rely on prejudice to make judgements.

Soooo.... how about that DOJ sepnding more time and money investigating a lane closure in NJ just to knock CC out of the presidential race?

Hey, EB, who is spying on us now in a way GWB could never have imagined....but i digress.
