Yi calls me Rasberry sometimes.  Occasionally I'll call him Rev, cause Reverend Moon is the only famous Korean I can think of.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Do I have a fun nickname?  I'm sure I do, but I forget.

Dump Truck and Outhouse.  I think you had a third which I forgot.

I am so sick of seeing Donald Trump being trotted out for opinion, or his "threats" to run again, or his foolishness on hosting a debate, or for his political viewpoints especially. I would have hoped we'd seen enough of him pretty quickly when he first jumped in the race. But man, he keeps coming back, or getting interviews on some cable station or another.

Bmo made some good posts. Some of them were garbled if you chose to read them uncharitably, but almost everything he posted made sense.
True, but once you got past those two posts, it was all shit mangled into something close enough to shinola that Languish just bought it without looking.

I'm glad he's history.  He added nothing here.

No. Yi nicknames do not sound like WWF (fuck the WWE) artistnames.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

They often only make sense to him.

Ron Paul has the lead in the latest two Iowa polls:

Paul 23, Romney 20, Gingrich 14, Perry 10, Bachmann 10, Santorum 10, Huntsman 4

Paul 24, Romney 18, Gingrich 13, Perry 16, Bachmann 10, Santorum 3, Huntsman 4

I wonder if Paul is going to get negative attacks? I wonder if Romney is going to bother attacking Ron Paul- if Paul's numbers drop, the likely beneficiary would probably be Perry or Gingrich. It's probably in Romney's best interest to let Ron Paul win and shot for second. In any event, as long as Romney gets third or better, he probably will pass the expectations test, which is the big reason why Iowa and NH are important.
