Romney is basically saying, "you're not a Yankees fan because you don't like Jeter"

alright, seriously this "floating cross" thing is so retarded. I thought it was a window, he says a book shelf. It's obviously not a cross. Fox had some subliminal message expert on this morning. This is getting pretty stupid.


And since this apparently is our political thread, did anybody catch Ron Paul on Glenn Beck last night? He was on for the full hour. He was pertty impressive. Too bad nobody probably watches that show. I'm so 90% behind the guy. I feel bad for him though, that all of the crazies have latched themselves onto him. Although I'm sure he doesn't mind their money, they really are makign him look bad.

I missed it. I'll have to try to find it on YouTube or Google Video sometime later today. I do love Drudge's spin on him right now. I laughed out loud at the headline versus what was actually said. Aside from the big "Money Bomb" news on Sunday, he also made big local news by collecting more signatures for the ballot in VA than any other candidate. I don't think the polls are anywhere close to right on him at the moment. The primaries will be interesting.

"Huckaboom boom boom"

Alright, Dudge is such a jerk. I'd love to work for this guy.

I think Drudge has a Huckabee vindetta!

The funny thing is, the more they attack Mike, the more he surges in the polls. Keep up the attacks it gets Mike more publicity.
Also, the more I see Ron Paul on TV, the more I dislike him.

Love Mike's response: "come on people it's a bookshelf."
Let's move on with the subliminal. And so what if it was a cross, he's a CHRISTIAN and we all know it.

Come on. What's a bookshelf doing next to a Christmas tree? If you don't think that was intentional, you're kidding yourself.

Our Family Christmas tree has set "next to" our book shelf all my life.

Sorry, should have been more specific. What's a bookshelf doing next to the Christmas tree in this commercial? They clearly wanted you to see the tree and there's clearly a light shining on the "bookshelf" right next to it.

That, in itself doesn't bother me. The Huckabee campaign being disingenuous about it does.

In my opinion, it still looks like a window

In stead of any response, I'll just say it is natural that you and I have different Huckabee views isn't it?
Who cares if the bookshelf or window or whatever looks like a cross. Do you think Mike consulted with the set designer or the lighting guy before taping? Give me a microscopic break. Get over it and move on.

Did you see the UFO flying by? It came through the shot right after Casper the friendly ghost.

Do I think his handlers did? Yes. Absolutely, unequivocally I do. I also don't care if they put a cross in the background or if they'd had a Buddha wearing a ballet skirt. They could have put dancing pigs in the background for all I care. Just don't try to pretend it's an accident.

A part of me thought it might have been there on purpose. Then I noticed the Christmas balls sitting on the shelf in upper left quadrant of the "cross".

That's when I said to myself: "Self, maybe they did do it on purpose. But, if they did, would they really put balls on it?"

I don't think they would. I think it's all just a big distraction. Unfortunately, big distractions seem to be all the races are about right now.

Christianity with balls. Who wouldn't vote for that?

Oh, wait, I forgot. Christians aren't supposed to have balls.
