Congratulations, we have now managed to be just like 1930’s Germany and America will continue to be even more divided now than ever as he’ll work to squash and ridicule even more anyone who opposes him now that he knows he can do virtually everything and take credit for everything he didn’t actually do. And yet still there are those who cheer him on!
Amazing how on Monday morning Iowa was the DNC darling. CNN and MSNBC anchors could not say enough good things about the caucus and the people of Iowa. On Tuesday we got hear how racist and horrible they are. How They should be left out of the process because “the state is 90% white”. How does that make America feel? Time will tell. Has the DNC forgotten that most state populations are mostly white? As much as the media tells us that it is even, minorities still only make up 17.9%. And before you slam me, I am part of that minority count.
(Just to underline the point, it took the GOP from 1/3 to 1/18/2012 to determine the results of their caucus.
Maybe it’s Iowa….)

Santorum declared Iowa winner
On the eve of the South Carolina primary, Iowa Republicans dealt Mitt Romney’s campaign a blow by formally declaring Rick Santorum the winner of their Jan. 3 caucuses.“In order to clarify conflicting reports and to affirm the results released January 18 by the Republican Party of Iowa, Chairman Matthew Strawn and the State Central Committee declared Senator Rick Santorum the winner of the 2012 Iowa Caucus,” the state GOP’s statement read.
The news that Romney — who for two weeks celebrated what he jokingly called a ‘landslide’ eight-vote victory in Iowa, only to see it reversed this week when the state GOP certified Santorum the leader by 34 votes — officially lost the first contest muddies his narrative, especially as Newt Gingrich surges in the polls in South Carolina.
Just a side note for John and Scott: the word “flack” means a publicity agent. The correct term is “flak”, meaning severe criticism, and which is derived from the World War 2 term for antiaircraft fire.
That explains a lot. I wondered if the developers ever heard of load testing, etc. Now I know. Iowa’s organizers hired MMM, who definitely believe the saying, “I don’t always test my code, but when I do, I do it in prod.”

I need to take a reading comprehension class. In my haste the first time through, I read “untie” the country rather than “unite.”
