bedsitter23It has been pretty busy around here, so we are a bit sporadic. This means I have read your comments and my Friends' page, but i have not been too active in commenting myself.
Anyway, this was never meant to be the definitive 2012 blog, but I feel like I should at least hit the big stuff, y'know for posterity's sake.
So, you've likely seen this. Not Rick Perry bad, but definitely not good.
Cain has went with the Bill Clinton/Shaggy defense- "it wasn't me".
Cain says he doesn't need to know about foreign policy and to be sure Obama, Dubya, and Clinton didn't have much foreign policy experience when they were sworn in either.
Still, Cain doesn't need this on top of his stand to prevent China from developing nuclear weapons and his comments on Ubeki-beki-beki-beki-stan-stan.
I'm not sure how much it hurts Cain. Americans like mavericks, and the Conservatives like a good "the lamestream media asks gotcha questions like "What newspapers do you read?"" story.
Newt Gingrich also is suffering some memory loss.
While his campaign has made a great leap forward, it has been revealed he was an advisor to that most-hated-by-the-GOP agency Freddie Mac.
Gingrich says he remembers it as he was paid $30,000 ('not that it matters' he adds) to act as a historian. Freddie Mac officials remember it as Gingrich got paid close to $1.8 Million to advocate in support of the group, and use his Republican ties to bring Congressional support.
Again, hard to say if this story will go away, but Michele Bachmann has been jumping all over it, so at least one person won't let it die.
