New Pawlenty Web Video “History is on Our Side.”  This is the Tim Pawlenty I know.  The video features cameos of candidates that Pawlenty is already supporting including Pat Toomey, Sean Duffy, Michele Bachmann, and Nikki Haley.

Fast fact.  The photo of President Reagan featured in the video was taken in Minnesota.

   Should come as no surprise. Emmer wrote the DWI legislation at the request of two DWI defense attorneys, who occasionally contracted as prosecutors, but mainly they tried to get people out of their DWI’s. Also big surprise, one of the DWI defense attorney’s was an Emmer supporter/donator.

   Why do you guys hate the original intent American School of Economics that brought us from nothing to the greatest economic power on earth? Reagan through the American Economics School philosophy out the window. It made a few people very rich and powerful, but that wasn’t the founder’s intent. The tenents of the American Economic Philosophy were thus:

   It consisted of these three core policies:

   1. protecting industry through selective high tariffs and subsidies
   2. government investments in infrastructure creating targeted improvements
   3. a national bank with policies that promote growth

   Seriously, it worked to make us the greatest country on the planet. Why throw it away so we could return to economic royalists?

   I suppose it is not a surprise that Luke is endorsing and championing Roy Blunt over the TEa Bag candidate. Blunt is the kind of corrupt insider the Republicans love, and the authentic Baggers hate. Blunt was listed by CREW as the most corrupt congress person out there. CREW bags democrats too, so it is a non-partisan honor to be #1 out of 535. Anyway, authentic reformers and baggers are rightly repulsed by Blunt, even though he is ultra conservative. It is not surprising the MNGOP mouthpiece is in love with this corrupt Republican.
