At first I thought you were Dick Cheney, but then I saw your mention of military service. And pardon me but this article is about science---with only the most oblique references to politics. Your notion that the deforestation and devastation of our country happened in the short space of three years is a blatant evolutionary myth, a disgrace to science, and anathema to a religious person such as myself.

Before you terminate, and to get the full effect of the left wing rubbish on this site, will you take a moment and read any blog on this site written by Dick Day.

And I have noted "clear ulterior"---very good.

This one is easy. Obama is clearly a Starling; a non-native parasite that consumes the bounty of this great land to the detriment of the native species. This article is filled with so much left wing rubbish, that I am really surprised that the editors of this web site allowed it to be posted. I will not go into the litany of reasons why this country is in the situation it is, but you can thank Obama, plain and simple. As a lifelong birder, with significant military and civilian government service under my belt, I find that the posting of this article in the first place exposes this site for what it is, and its clear ulterior motives, which is sad. I will terminating my subscription to this site immediately.

I wouldn't want to be Cain

I wouldn't want to be Cain when he gets home tonight for that fireside chat with his wife. (But it's not all that hard to imagine.)

You know, a conspiratorial mind could conceive of a plot to position a guy in this Republican primary process who would turn out to be such an outrageous philanderer that Gingrich would look good by comparison.

In fact, a plot where all the contenders were so flawed that Gingrich eventually looks like the best one of the bunch.

Being a conspiratorial sort I can't get out of my mind that that CNN debate, with all the neocons there staged to ask questions was not a premeditated arrangement to re-launch Gingrich. It's another "War Time President" strategy. He said we could take out the Iranian government inside of a year.

From your mouth to God's ears. I heard a couple of soundbytes from him yesterday that made me cringe. Truly, he's got a horribly self-serving and self-aggrandizing personality. Quite a turn off. I don't care if you're a R or a D, if you're a dick, you don't need to be president. Whatever I may say about Bush, he did at least come off kind of 'folksy'. Misinformed and basically Dick Cheney's puppet, but still, I never thought: "That guy is just a dick."

Newt is decidedly a dick*.

Sorry for the three penile references, but Newt brings it out in me.

I agree with everything but Newt. He's getting quite long in the tooth. He's currently 68, but looks much older. He'll be 69 by November of 2012 and 73 by November of 2016. This is his last chance, and I think he knows it.

In reply to Right, VA, we are definitely

I think calling the Republican primary “a flawed evolutionary process” is the kindest and most accurate way I’ve heard it described yet.

Great discussion, glad I read it - and all the comments that ranged from funny “let’s split the difference and call him Jon” and “moves like Jagger” to enlightening. This, particularly hadn’t occurred to me, but I think you’re absolutely right!

My take on Huntsman is that he is running for 2016. I think he has a great deal more horsepower than he is exhibiting.

Yeah, whatever happens this year, I think we'll be seeing Huntsman again. And if history bears repeating, and unfortunately it does, I doubt we've seen the last of Mitt and/or Newt in the very same position a few years from now. It appears both of them are in Presidential primary syndication.

Great picture, the facial hair definitely ameliorates his jowls.

Newt is weaving a complicated web. Setting himself up as an authority on black history whereas a Kenyan like Obama, with the stigma of affirmative action, couldn't possibly understand the subject. This guy is devious.
