Robert Capozzi: just more proof that loads of IPR ‘contributors’ are not serious ’bout taking on the Establishment after they screwed over our parents and grand parents and are setting up our grand children and their children! Where’s the out rage? Where’s the serious thought?

Real Politics, not Kindergarten antics. Screw ’sense of humor’ [save it for an appropriate setting] ………..

ms, I said what should have been taken in jest that you’d be more inclined to join with Dondero than the increasingly popular R King Caucus. That means you’d do neither, since you seem to have contempt for both.

Sorry that wasn’t clear.

Rodney Dangerfield’s Grandmother Caucus -

Me, who despises the GOP and all it stands for, join with Dondero?

Carpozzi, you really are insane if you think that. That’s so pathetic it’d be funny if it weren’t so sadly indicative of your mental breakdown.

I wouldn’t join Dondero for anything, even if my life depended on it.

But what to expect from a “Reform” caucus member who doesn’t have any clue what’s going on?

@ 90 George I just finshed reading your article.

Question # 1. What the hell do all these consultants do for their money?

Question # 2. How the hell do I get in on the scam?

Disclaimer # 1. I know one of those “consultants” and the person has never done an honest days work in his life.

It is an illusion to contend that limited government is possible without negatively affecting a portion of society. That portion is generally the middle and lower socio-economic levels of society who are affected most negatively by the redistribution of wealth. Even with impressive care and concern over the protection of inalienable rights within the U.S. Constitution, it has been slowly usurped year after year to a point where now we have so much government with so few rights that it will be impossible to ever pay for it and therefore the majority is now essentially bankrupt under fascist rule. What has been shown is that it is most likely impossible to limit police power when control is placed in the hands of political oligarchs whom will always collude for power. Even a small level of the redistribution of wealth granted by political means appears to have been utilized to further expand those powers. The Citizens have never been able to diminish or stop the further increases of the redistribution of wealth and in this author’s opinion, it is impossible without significantly harming a vast number of people and l will not condone or advance such actions or its philosophy.

Fave Dangerfield from the one where he joins his son in college. Dangerfield asks his professor on a date. She says no, she has class. RD: “call me some time when you have no class”. Awesome!

Bryan, actually you are right, I did say that. It was not meant as an insult in any way. The reason why I did not think I had said that was that in #72 I thought I was responding to Erik Geib. My mistake.

Paulie @72…

Your actual phrase was something like…seem to be a constituionalist rather than a small l libertarian.

Without posting all kinds of crap up here, it was 3/23 at post #99 (OK I admit it… I am seriously bored with writers block, so yeah…I looked it up…shoot me.)

To be honest though, I kind of like the label…It lets me “keep it real”

po, let a thousand flowers bloom. While Dangerfield was hilarious, the sentiment that King evoked with his “can we all just get along?” press conference is exactly what’s needed at this point in time. We need to break the cycle of infighting and really begin to promote a more peaceful civil order, sooner rather than later.

How about the Rodney Dangerfield Caucus? The LP gets no respect.
