Santorum Comeback

This election's Hail Mary pass? Angry Albanians. Smart Frenchmen. Clownish Virginians. Plus more.

(Page 6 of 10)

Peter Skurkiss br> Stow, Ohio /p>

Now now Mr. Tyrrell, having had the insight to correctly categorize Bill Clinton as a sociopath, why are you now surprised that he has finally shown his true colors as a rancid raving racist bigot? Aren't all sociopaths completely devoid of any scruples whatsoever?

Your putative surprise at Clinton's recent antics surprises me. I would have thought that an eminence of your caliber would have known that eventually Clinton wouldn't be able to restrain his baser instincts and you would be lurking in the weeds, biding your time waiting to pounce. Instead, I get this sober sided assessment of Clinton and Carter that is quite accurate but lacks the usual biting wit and sarcasm of your polemics. Is it that the Clintons and Carter are so reprehensible that words fail to express your disdain adequately -- if so I can hardly blame you as they fail me also?

By the way, in the future please don't equate these two mendacious poltroons with us good old boy rednecks. We rednecks who have earned our place in the sun by the fruits of our honest labor take umbrage at the very thought that these two are even remotely associated with us. Do not assume that by accident of their southern birth they are one of us -- they both lack the basic strength of character (and many other fundamental attributes) required to be defined as southerners let alone rednecks.

p>Anyway keep up the good work, I always look forward to devouring your enlightening, erudite and witty polemics. br> -- M.J. Casey br> North Miami Beach, Florida /p>

For me, former President Clinton has always been easy to understand. Once I decided he was a narcissist, I knew that on every issue I pondered wherein he was playing a role others would suffer if they needed to.

Ole southern Bill would use race in a heartbeat! Color would become a tool to push others where Bill wanted them to be. Think of Bill in the military, where do you think he would fight?

That's right, from the rear: For Bill it has always been the role of others to die for him.

The real problem with Obama is going to be highlighted in the forthcoming race when he has to confront Hillary.
