Here are exciting if raw and anonymous assertions via a PN egroup:

Judge rejects GOP candidates’ request to be added to Virginia ballot [49 Delegates up for grabs]

A federal judge has ruled that Rick Perry and three other Republican presidential candidates will not be added to Virginia’s primary ballot.

District Court Judge John Gibney Jr. rejected their requests, arguing that they filed their challenges to Virginia’s stringent ballot requirements too late.

“They played the game, they lost, and then they complained about the rules,” he said.

The decision means — for now, anyway — that Perry, Rick Santorum, Jon Huntsman and Newt Gingrich will be left off the March 6 ballot after failing to meet a state requirement to collect 10,000 signatures in support of their respective campaigns.

"They played the game, they lost, and then they complained about the rules," he said.

The decision means -- for now, anyway -- that Perry, Rick Santorum, Jon Huntsman and Newt Gingrich will be left off the March 6 ballot after failing to meet a state requirement to collect 10,000 signatures in support of their respective campaigns.

The judge said the campaigns had from July to mid-December to obtain the signatures, and could have challenged the requirement during that period. "The plaintiffs knew the rules months ago," he said.

Gibney said that if the challenge had been filed earlier, he would have ordered the signature requirement be thrown out.

After the hearing, Perry campaign attorney Joe Nixon said he will need to talk to his client to determine whether to appeal.

Asked about the accusation that the candidates complained only after they lost, Nixon said: "The ultimate rule is the Constitution of the United States."

In a separate statement, Nixon said: "We are disappointed with this result that disenfranchises Virginia voters. The judge confirmed that the statute is unconstitutional, but did not remedy that situation. I commend Gov. Perry for his courage and tenacity in pursuing this case, and seeking to protect the rights of Virginia voters."

The candidates have argued that the rules were too strict. Only Mitt Romney and Ron Paul qualified for Virginia's ballot.

Wow. That is just,,,,,AWESOME!!! I mean, Romney and Paul managed to get on yet the rest couldn’t find the time. What does that say about your competence if you can’t get on the ballot in your own home state, Newt? The rest of you?


.......Here's a hot subject:

There's a freakishly gross pattern in most conservative dialectics: even many of our good commentators and comrades-in-arms show themselves incapable of asserting any strong moral position without invoking slavery in the old South or the "civil rights movement". Whether the right to life, the fight against gambling or any other great gauntlet being thrown down, there is virtually always a comparison to the above "struggles" as the commies behind them call them. It's as if either the speaker is afraid people won't take his cause seriously or won't consider him fully human or something without these nods to hothouse PC dogma.

Of course, liberals equate conservatism with "racism", so maybe these are simply grandiose declarations in so many words that "I'M NOT RACIST EVEN THOUGH THAT'S WHAT THE THOUGHT POLICE ARE READY TO CALL ME IF I DON'T THROW THIS IN". Worst of all, I fear that lots of people actually believe the monstrous lie that the "civil war" and "civil rights" were in fact the topmost pinnacles of moral achievement in all human history. The System is forcing this cultism on other countries too now!

I have this same conversation with the smartest people I know. It came up again today as I had lunch with a regular at PN meetings. I swear I didn't bring it up -- he did, in reference to the blovations and posturings of Newt or some other insufferable neocon jerk. Yeah, yeah, we have to vote for New or Rock or Mitt because they're the true heirs NOT to the moral progress chronicled in the Bible, not to the liberating strictures of the Constitution, but to the fact that Yankee lawyers came South 50 years ago to shred the Bill of Rights in the name of what the call "equality".

And now, checking email in my heatless home office this evening, my blood is put on boil that the same pattern recurring in the high places of liberaldom (above news link).

At the same time I'm glad that liberals show their true colors at times like this -- red for communism, pink for pinko, yellow for intellectual cowardice, and red again for all the people they kill in fulfilling their loving, altruistic delusions. I just hope the masses are getting the real message -- this fake show of concern for equality and the forced apotheosis of it have been systematically used to eclipse all the true heroism of the ages. It's all that the Insiders and their useless idiot frontpersons know!

I would feel sorry for them, but they're eating my country out from under me.
