Mr. Treese

I guess I got deleted because of the d-word.

Sorry about that. It doesn't offend me personally, and I thought I'd seen it used frequently enough at the Bigs and that it was fair game (in moderation, at least). However, I admit to not having read any guidelines.

I look forward to showing greater respect to you and the rest of the Bigs community in the future; and thank you for allowing me to voice my thoughts here.

"Thank you", Andrew Breitbart, for leading and inspiring; and "thank you" to the team that will continue his effort.
Not that I could have seen this coming, but I sure wouldn't have thought it would feel like this. I guess that means it was a good thing.

Maybe folks are running out of ideas for movies. It was going to happen sooner or later.

It's amazing what people are willing to tolerate when its THEIR politician. How, exactly, do you brush these things to the side around the same kids you're trying to raise and be kind, trustworthy, and respectful adults?

Is it any wonder that the youth don't respect adults (generally speaking)? When you couple up these double standards with the scant quality time that parents spend with their kids, you begin to realize that we're courting national and societal callapse.

Libs do this stuff more (it seems; maybe I'm biased), but the problem is substantial in every group. Anybody reading this should be able to think of a few examples where they saw fellow conservatives (or themselves) brushing poor and irresponsible political behavior under the rug. Its not inconsequential.

If Obama asks you run as his vice presidential replacement for Biden, would you accept?

I understand why Arizonans want to feel safe and everything, but you can't just deny folks their rights cause they're colored different than you are. If you don't like brown people, then why would you live in a state that borders Mexico? And if we let Arizonans do this to Mexicans, what will they do to African Americans next? Most of them are even browner than Mexicans.

As a conservative who is not entirely on board with the Bigs, I still find myself thinking that this is a well deserved victory lap that Nolte is taking with this article.

I know, in the bottom of my heart, that I'm a nut and a prick. But for whatever its worth, thank you John and the rest of the team for bringing down this nuissance. I've never done so much for my country or community as you have here.

I do have SOME hope for the mainstream media (misguided, maybe). I was noticing early in the movement that folks on CNN were looking on timidly at they were seeing. Its almost as if New Media literally took Old Media by the hair and shoved their nose in the poop. The disgust was all over their faces, but I can't be 100% sure of what that disgust was about. I just don't think that an Anderson Cooper, for example, really liked the footage he was seeing. Normally, they would have chosen not to see; but they couldn't. But I might be projecting wishful thinking. Seeing what I hoped to see.

So much of it is senseless to me, still.

To be open or "transparent" to you, I went ahead and made a conscious decision NOT to consider the Cain campaign anymore about 3 or 4 weeks ago. At the VERY LEAST, what I was seeing was campaign disarray (did I spell "disarray" right? that doesn't look right) and an uncomfortable knowledge base on foreign policy. Combined with red flags going off in my mind, I had to let him go--though hoping the best for him, personally. I have no doubt that he is, or at least can be, a great American and an inspiration.

BUT, I do overlook details at times, and you're making a good point. Thank you for replying and helping me think.

Wasn't this over 3 or 4 weeks ago? Raise your hand if you kinda knew the Cain campaign was nonsense--but you kept trying to make it work in your head because you liked the IDEA of Herman Cain?

You guys should have been listening more to your women on this one. Women might not reason straight, but they're pretty damn intuitive. Such as, when one's looking at you like you're bad news or the plague; she's right, aint she?

Just playing. I don't know how they think, either. I just noticed that their bull-s**t detectors were flying off the charts as the Cain affair stuff was happening. It must have felt nice to them to be able to move on past this guy.

Hey Feral. Just a couple of comments.

Your whole comment made sense, but I think your best point came in the 3rd paragraph. Amen! Way too linear.

As far as questionable women with questionable pasts and connections, I don't have a rebuttle, either. Actually, just something to consider: If Cain really was involved with the ladies as is reported, then these are probably the types of women he's involved with. Most stable people, men or women, trying to build a meaningful life tend to take the risk of an affair a lot less frequently than others. Its not just doing it secretly and not getting caught; you kind of have to be used to living a patchwork lifestyle. The good ones are exactly the ones who can't pull this off.
