Huck ♥'s Porkers
Crossin' that Bridge to Nowhere.
Huck PAC, created by former Arkansas Governor and Republican Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee, has officially endorsed Congressman Don Young in his re-election bid for Alaska's seat in the House of Representatives.The endorsement was unpopular enough to force Huckabee to respond on his website. Looks like Young got this endorsement based on his "pro-family" votes and pure cronyism. Awesome.
Young is a terrible choice, and not just because he was the sponsor of the "bridge to nowhere." He's also been tied to the disgraced Jack Abramoff, inserted an earmark that would have benefited a campaign donor, and may be the focus of a criminal investigation for illegally editing a bill after a vote. But hey...he supported Huckabee's presidential bid and is "pro-family" so he's good to go.
Judging from his weak-tea defense of Young, Huckabee doesn't understand how badly he's harmed his brand with this one. This endorsement also displays a rather profound ignorance of why Congressional Republicans are so unpopular. Hint: it's not a lack of social conservatism, it's an almost complete absence of fiscal discipline.
Maybe asking a porker like Huck to understand that is unfair, though.
I am so glad evangelicals in numerous states decided to put identity politics above conservative principles during the primary, making this doofus a top-tier candidate and political force in the GOP. Nice work, guys.

Boa noite amigos, com certeza um torpedo gratuito está cada vez mais difícil devido a restrição das operadoras de celular. Há ainda os serviços que prometem entregar meu torpedo mas quase nunca chegam ao usuário final. Alguns como o Mundo oi e o Oi Torpedo funcionam mas e para as outras operadoras? E os que prometem que mandam e nada chega. Para onde está indo as as minhas menssagens? E para a Tim, Vivo? Alguma Idéia? Ou significa ter de desembolsar?. Desculpem, realmente está difícil achar serviços para mandar torpedos gratuito.

Bom dia pessoal, provavelmente possuir um veículo é difícil devido ao da verdadeira pilantragem de algumas empresas como as de vendas de usados. Estas nem sempre cumprem ao contrato feito ou tem embutidas em letras pequenas deveres que dão prejuízo ao consumidor do veículo. O Código do Consumidor muitas vezes não protege todas as artimanhas do comprador. Estava lendo umas experiências no http://www.carrousado.org sobre todos os cuidados para a aquisição sem ter dor de cabeça depois. Foi mal, realmente está difícil fazer bons negócios.

Bom dia galera, realmente mandar um SMS gratuito está cada vez mais difícil devido a restrição das operadoras móveis. Há ainda os serviços que prometem entregar meu SMS mas nem sempre chegam destinatário final. Alguns como o Mundo oi e o Oi Torpedo funcionam mas e para as outras operadoras? E os que prometem que enviam e nada chega. Para onde está indo as meus SMS? E para a Tim, Vivo? Alguma Idéia? Ou significa ter de comprar?. Foi mal, realmente está difícil achar serviços para enviar SMS barato.
