This Is Why Congress Criminalized Heroin In 1920

Here Comes the Landslide
By Dick Morris - October 31, 2012


Voters have figured out that President Obama has no message, no agenda and not even much of an explanation for what he has done over the past four years. His campaign is based entirely on persuading people that Mitt Romney is a uniquely bad man, entirely dedicated to the rich, ignorant of the problems of the average person. As long as he could run his negative ads, the campaign at least kept voters away from the Romney bandwagon. But once we all met Mitt Romney for three 90-minute debates, we got to know him — and to like him. He was not the monster Obama depicted, but a reasonable person for whom we could vote. As we stripped away Obama’s yearlong campaign of vilification, all the president offered us was more servings of negative ads — ads we had already dismissed as not credible. He kept doing the same thing even as it stopped working.

The result was that the presidential race reached a tipping point. Reasonable voters saw that the voice of hope and optimism and positivism was Romney while the president was only a nitpicking, quarrelsome, negative figure. The contrast does not work in Obama’s favor.

4. realclearbullshit

[ProudProgressiveNow]

5. I just don't know what to say....

even Faux News would call him delusional, and that would be coming from other delusional people.

[octoberlib]

6. I don't know. This looks more like LSD to me. n/t

[Warpy]

9. Nah, people had useful revelations on LSD, which was a lot of fun

even if all you did was giggle over the absurdity of life for eight hours.

Junkies are nothing if not peaceful unless their connection got busted and they're getting sick. Happy junkies just snooze in the corner, rousing occasionally to remark about how wasted they are and then drift back off.

I would really like to know what drugs the GOPers are on because I'd like to avoid them. PCP comes to mind, as do meth, alcohol and bath salts.

Republicans are on something much, much worse. We need to identify it and find an antidote.

7. All I did was switch the name President Obama with Mitt Romney and it made perfect sense!

Deflection, thy name is Republican piece of shit.

Sorry OP but I just can't make myself click the link for more.........

10. My guess is that he gets paid

11. Therin lies the rub

If you go out and sell corporate friendly/ power structure friendly ideas, you will be greatly rewarded.
Challenge those in power, financially or politically and you will have a a shit storm of ridicule thrown at you.
How many times has Morris been right about anything in the last 15 years? So why should anyone listen to his prognostications?
Why would any media or news outlet even care what he has to say?
My response to Morris or any one that publishes his view ends with the phrase "and the horse you rode in on"
NO intent or action that will harm any horse is intended in the previous statement.

12. Meth is a hell of a drug...

It drove a former Democrat to become a fucktoy for the Koch brothers...

[Iceberg Louie]

13. Bath salts still remain legal in most states

If Morris was on heroin, surely he would be just as delusional, but his prose would be likely more flowery and colorful.

Something like this:

The vox populi has proclaimed our eminent President a mute; the tocata of his tongue devolved into the cacophony of the populist mime. Whereas his quest to've slain the dragon 'tis Mitt Romney, his scabbard shone to be no more than an alloy of pomp costumery and legerdemain, with a blind eye to the woes begotten of the fiefdom o'er where he does lord. The jester Obama lain victim to his own vainglory, learned all but too the later that the medium indeed is not the message. Tho' whence the body politic become to the acquaint of Messr. Romney for the span of thrice the occasion of import, the choice laid upon the feet of the commonwealth only that to endear to all from seaside to seaside. Nary the visage of a two-headed serpentine money-changer the High Jester would foist upon his serfs! As the inevitable juggernaut of this mortal coil presses forthwith, his Highness ambles through the same chasm of dearth and despondence, lest this very cordwainer who laid waste at his royal feet continue the same ploy.

14. He hasn't ever gotten one thing right that he's predicted

has he?
