					<description><![CDATA[Scott Adams makes a very strong case that the fellow that scammed the Iowa caucuses was Rubio.

Rubio&#039;s camp did MORE to spread the &quot;Carson&#039;s dropped out&quot; meme than ANYBODY.

Then, Hillary style, they swept their tweet trail -- but too late.

Dang that Internet and it&#039;s digital vaults.

Rubio&#039;s camp rigged the final debate -- with the avid cooperation of Fox and the GOPe. 

Adams contends that the GOPe is going to surge Rubio in New Hampshire... as much to block Cruz as to block Trump.

As Cruz points out, at many levels, Rubio is a repeat of Romney. 

The top issue in 2012 was 0-care. Romney was unable to create ANY daylight between his Romneycare and 0-care.

The top issue in 2016 is immigration. Rubio will not be able to create ANY daylight between himself, Trump, Hillary, Sanders, or Jeb!

For when you parse their positions and utterances -- they ALL have &quot;paths to citizenship&quot; built in to their CORE positions.

The only outlier is Ted Cruz.

Who Rubio is smearing as being equivalent to himself.

Barry Soetoro is BOMBING our polity with anti-American &#039;imports.&#039;

For NONE of the Muslim invaders is here bound to carry the torch of freedom.

As for Barry&#039;s inner soul, the first time he could speak without covering icons - was at a mosque.

What a surprise.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;i&gt;If Iowans knew that story, they probably wouldn’t have voted for Trump. But it never got publicized, and I’ll never understand why.&lt;/i&gt;

Lots of pig farms in Iowa, and probably state-of-the-art clean. For a pig farm, that is. So maybe an ad showing Trump saying the Scottish farmer lived like a pig would resonate differently there?

Just found this &lt;a href=&quot;https://pkbelly.com/content/detail/glossary_of_pork_terms&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;website&lt;/a&gt; of an Iowa company called Pork Belly Ventures, whose slogan is &quot;Live Like a Pig&quot;:

&quot;A PBV team slogan that encourages Porkers to be content with their circumstances, Think Gravy, find joy in the moment, regardless of sweat and other minor discomforts, acknowledge that shift happens, and roll with it. It is not uncommon to hear virtuous Porkers praised in hushed tones: &#039;Wow. The guy really knows how to Live Like a Pig&#039;.&quot;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;On campaigning&quot;, on lying, potatoe, potahto: the paradox asks us to believe a self-professed liar (Epimenides, a Cretan, says &quot;All Cretans are liars&quot;). Our difficulty is as simple as: why should we? He may well be lying now, or lying again, as it were. This would not be an occasion to take him at his word. 

In more concrete terms, Rove may have an agenda to promote against Cruz, so your citation of him comes already suspect as to truthfulness. It is perfectly reasonable to suspect Rove of hidden aims. Therefore, his testimony isn&#039;t worth the breath expended to make it.]]></description>
