Posted on 10/20/12 at 09:36 pm in response to Catholic PAC has poured $1.2 million into pro-marriage amendment fight

I cannot speak to Minneapolis but my children had very nice exposures to the SPCO via school and personal visits. I wonder if there is not a slightly better way for them to settle. The local arts have suffered from the drop in funding from all sources. Don't know which box they might be able to think outside of, but he they can.
Maybe they will just have to repost the jobs at new salary levels and allow new competition. It is always hard to cut an expected salary.

Posted on 10/19/12 at 12:54 pm in response to Monday’s debate: Watch for what Romney says about Europe

Bush had a tough time getting European support for his Iraq follies after he and Rumsfeld insulted Europe. Romney's comments about the Olympics were ill thought out and that is exactly something you look for in a President? Wars have started over misunderstandings, many times in history. What you say on other countries counts, when you aspire to the biggest stage in the world.

Posted on 10/17/12 at 10:35 pm in response to Brodkorb: Turnout, not values, is aim of marriage amendment

Anyone who uses real facts in an argument. Unlike TS. Just as any vote cast for a Democrat is de facto fraudulent vote.
Next?

Posted on 10/17/12 at 09:11 pm in response to A solid debate ‘win’ for Obama

Listening to both sides spin this is fruitless, just another part of the endless partisan drone.
I would propose we look at some facts.
The dow was 8852 the close of 10/13. Today it closed at 13557
Gas was 3.54 a gallon in 2008, 3.74 today
Median home price was 180.200, today 181,500

So explain to me, my conservative troll friends, how bad a job Obama has done again? The market cratered in the high 6000's, gas dropped to under 2.00 and housing median prices...

Posted on 10/15/12 at 07:09 pm in response to Milwaukee archdiocese, abuse victims can't reach mediated agreement

Time to crank up more anti-gay hysteria to deflect the stories away from themselves.

Posted on 10/15/12 at 03:13 pm in response to Brodkorb goes public and claims power grab in state Senate

This is a ridiculous assertion. Republicans hired him, fired him and now have hung him out to dry. Your continual victim hood is as pathetic as this case. Man up.

Posted on 10/01/12 at 08:51 pm in response to Why did the Star Tribune let Matt Birk talk while ignoring Chris Kluwe?

Is entitled to his opinion, but I am not Catholic and do not care for him imposing his views on my family. As to his tax comments, funny how they like playing in taxpayer subsidized stadiums and seem to not let that bother them. Papers should let the paid seals bark in their own pools, about something they have expertise in.

Posted on 09/20/12 at 09:33 pm in response to T-Paw's high-paying gig with Wall Street lobby draws reaction

Is not exactly a private sector job, more sucking up to the trough there Mr. T-Paw.

Posted on 09/19/12 at 03:19 pm in response to Commenters, MinnPost wants your views -- respectfully

Arguing about arguing.

Posted on 09/19/12 at 09:58 pm in response to Questions for Mitt Romney after his explanation of what he meant to say

Lee Atwater was quoted as saying that instead of using words that become "verboten", like the N word, you change the focus and the direction to a proxy. That is what is going on here. They cannot attack Obama for his race, but hey can attack everything he does with code words, like socialist, anti-colonial, Kenyan. Obama cannot respond because the Right would play that up, so the focus changes to another proxy code word. And his supporters? Don't mention their race, mock their financial...
