Targets of Opportunityblog advertising is good for you Credo"Sign on, young man, and sail with me. The stature of our homeland is no more than the measure of ourselves. Our job is to keep her free. Our will is to keep the torch of freedom burning for all. To this solemn purpose we call on the young, the brave, the strong, and the free. Heed my call, Come to the sea. Come Sail with me." -- John Paul Jones "Pardon him, Theodotus; he is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature" --George Bernard Shaw, "Caesar and Cleopatra" "And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music."--Friedrich Nietzsche "A kind Providence has placed in our breasts a hatred of the unjust and cruel, in order that we may preserve ourselves from cruelty and injustice. They who bear cruelty, are accomplices in it. The pretended gentleness which excludes that charitable rancour, produces an indifference which is half an approbation. They never will love where they ought to love, who do not hate where they ought to hate."--Edmund Burke "Μολὼν λαβέ" -- Leonidas "Blogito Ergo Sum" -- Neptunus Lex For the Effort!Subscribe![]() Tagsafghanistan AGW army Blogging buffoonery china culture economy Flying Friday Musings geopol Gratuitous slap GWOT Headlines health care History iran iraq issues Media Memory Lane Military Navy norks Oz pakistan piracy politicians politics Politics and Culture pundits Russia science sea stories silliness Small Stuff SoCal sport Tech Lust technology UAVs UK usaf usmc weapons WP Cumulus Flash tag cloud by Roy Tanck and Luke Morton requires Flash Player 9 or better.

This evokes a picture of the taxpayer being held by the ankles while the politicians shake all the change out of his/her pockets.
LMAO, Jimmy!! So true!
It’s no surprise to me that they are all about “change” … as each of them, to varying degrees, is a chameleon in a suit.
And when they act as such, they make the Geico gecko look like a statesman.
“Change” is a cute buzzword. But I’d be happier hearing more of them say WHAT or HOW they would like to change.
I’m waiting to see who will be the first one to say “I will get the networks to make new TV shows!” I think that’s who I’ll bet on. . .
Not ready for prime time, preacher!

Ah, but how can the esteemed campaigns best manipulate the buzzwords into a slogan?
“Time for a Change”
“Experience for a Change”
“Change the Experience”
“Change Timely Experience”
“Experience the Change”
“Time for Experience”
“Changing the Experience”
“Change We can Believe in”
Face it. We’re all screwed. Eight years of HRH.
And, after many years on this blue marble, am continually confounded when the population continually thinks one person, even if they are the President can make a change…when they send, at the 95% rate, the incumbents back to the Congrss of these United States.
I blame the NEA for failing to provide an adequate civic course to educate our populace…
Note that Hillery is wearing David Bowie’s ’70′s hairstyle.
Hats off to the Maestro who put that together! Genius!
They say they’re for change in Washington? Fine. Let’s talk about the tax code, because Washington has three powers — one is to tax, and the other is to compel compliance under the rule of law, the last is to spend that money.
Go ahead, politician — we’re not giving up the power of law just yet, so tell us how you’ll change taxation or spending.
We’re listening.

Max, listen to Huckabee then. He’s the only candidate that has publicly spoken out, saying that if elected, his #1 priority will be to get the Fair Tax ammendment passed.
Byron,
How long have you been waiting for someone to totally revamp the tax code to something fair and across the board? We hear the same new “old ideas” every 4 years…
Well I hate to tell ya, it ain’t gonna happen in your, or my lifetime. Odds are not anyone reading this. Remember S. Forbes, remember P. Graham etc. etc.
Personally I’ve dropped Huckabee off my radar since he made that weird analogy about Saddams WMD. Like I said above- not ready for prime time. Managing the budget for the Arkansas national Guard is his glass ceiling. Not today..maybe 10-15 years from now.

If all they want is change, then I’ve got a roll of quarters for every last one of them, if they’ll shut up and go away.
Ummm… how about three rolls of quarters, encased in a sock, Fontessa?
Byron, I like Huckabee’s support of the Fair Tax, and have been disappointed in the conclusions reached by other candidates regarding it — they seem to think that changing the premise under which it is written is a legitimate criticism, rather like propping up a strawman only to knock him down.
But, as Badbob points out, with only three powers held by Washington what are the chances of them giving up one? Yea, like unto a snowflake in hell.
I’d settle for discussions about the upcoming social security crisis. It’s underfunded by double-digit trillions of dollars, and hoping for a plague that only affects retired folks is not only unlikely to happen, it’s probably not going to get the blue-hairs to vote for ya either.
