Pointy-Headed Intellectuals Crying Themselves To Sleep On Their Huge Pillows

Rep. Stacey Campfield rubs his Thursday primary victory in the faces of his detractors just a little bit:

I know it is killing many on the left that I won. Some of the comments from them and from even some people in the media it is obvious they are just bitter, bitter, bitter. Even on election night they didn’t want to cut me or my people any slack. You could tell they are eager to but a dagger in the heart of the conservative movement.

It was a lot of attacks and spin in an attempt to minimize what we did but we still got the double digit win despite being outspent two to one. As a friend of mine said on election night “Haters….go cry yourself to sleep!”

Nuff said.

Coop For Strongman

Sean Braisted, after listening to a presentation given by Congressman Jim Cooper, notes the correlation between our system of government and our economic problems:

Perhaps this is a problem inherent within a democratic republic. Politicians are making decisions based on the ‘feelings’ of their constituents rather than hard-headed statistical data. As an example, China wouldn’t dare think about mothballing a multi-billion dollar project like Yucca Mountain because a few local residents had irrational fears…yet in our system of government if enough people have irrational fears, they are then justified by political leaders who put re-election above the good of our nation as a whole.
