Losing power seems to make Republican politicians smarter.
Tom Ridge is queasy about the Arizona law, and Bill Frist pretty much likes the Access to Care Act.
It seems that out-of-office Republicans are much smarter than Republicans still in office.
That gives us all a chance to improve some Republican IQs this November.

Asal mula web Judi Poker Online Mengelokkan dipercaya di Dunia.
Dari segi buku Foster’ s Complete Hoyle, RF Foster menyelipkan “ Permainan situs pokerqq paling dipercaya dimainkan mula-mula di Amerika Serikat, lima kartu bikin masing masing pemain dari satu antaran kartu berisi 20 kartu”. Tetapi ada banyaknya ahli tarikh yg tidak setuju diantaranya David Parlett yg menguatkan jika permainan situs judi poker online paling dipercaya ini mirip seperti permainan kartu dari Persia yang dibawa oleh As-Nas. Kurang lebih sejahrawan menjelaskan nama produk ini diambil dari Poca Irlandi adalah Pron Pokah atau Pocket, tetapi masih menjadi abu-abu karena tidak dijumpai dengan pasti sapa yg menjelaskan permainan itu menjadi permainan poker.
Walau ada sisi per judian dalam semua tipe permainan ini, banyak pakar menjelaskan lebih jelas berkaitan gimana situs judi poker mampu menjadi game taruhan yang disenangi beberapa orang dalam Amerika Serikat. Itu berjalan bertepatan dengan munculnya betting di daerah sungai Mississippi dan daerah sekelilingnya pada tahun 1700 an serta 1800 an. Pada saat itu mungkin serius tampil terdapatnya keserupaan antara poker masa lalu dengan modern poker online tidak hanya pada trick berspekulasi tetapi sampai ke pikiran di tempat. Mungkin ini lah cikal akan munculnya permainan poker modern yg kalian ketahui sampai saat tersebut.
Riwayat awal timbulnya situs judi poker paling dipercaya Di dalam graha judi, salon sampai kapal-kapal yg siapkan arena betting yg ada didaerah setengah Mississippi, mereka terkadang bermain cukup hanya manfaatkan 1 dek yg beberapa 20 kartu (seperti permainan as-nas). Game itu terkadang dimainkan langsung tidak dengan diundi, langsung menang, punya putaran taruhan, dapat meningkatkan perhitungan taruhan seperi game as-nas.
Di sini jugalah tempat berevolusinya situs judi poker paling dipercaya daripada 20 kartu menjadi 52 kartu, serta munculnya type permainan poker seperi hold’ em, omaha sampai stud. Herannya orang melihat bila poker stud jadi poker pertama dan classic yang telah dimainkan lebih daripada 200 tahun.
Diakhir tahun 1800 an sajian Poker Online mulai disematkan lagi ketentuan baru diantaranya straight dan flush serta beberapa type tipe yang lain lain seperti tipe poker low ball, wild cards, community cards of one mode dan lainnya.
Are you sure it's out-of-office Republicans who are smarter, or not-seeking-office Republicans? Because I'm leaning toward the latter.
And let’s not forget that Duncan Hunter wants to deport children born in the US of undocumented parents. Wanting to evade the 4th Amendment is one thing; wanting to overturn the 14th is another.
This isn't even about any amendments: it's about the citizenship-by-birth that (iirc) precedes any amendments.
Well, Dred Scott was not a citizen in 1857, when there were only 12 amendments. It took The Late Unpleasantness from 1861-1865 to settle the issue of who is a citizen.
No, you're quite right, I was wrong – citizenship-by-birth is in the fourteenth amendment. I'd thought it was in the original Constitution. Well, I guess this makes Andrew Jackson a bit less of a hypocrite than I'd thought – no less of a monster, but less of a hypocrite. I just did some quick searches, rather than actually reading, but I'm not sure that the unamended Constitution defined citizenship.
Mind you, this means that all those people who want to restrict rights like Habeas to citizens are even a bit more crazy …
"It seems that out-of-office Republicans are much smarter than Republicans still in office"…so, Mark Kleiman admits that Sarah Palin is smart.
Hmmm, an IQ out-of-office link among politicians, is it causal, correlational or non-existent…sounds like a new chapter in the next Freakonomics book
Of course, "smarter than Republicans still in office" sets a pretty low bar.
Which reminds me: when Sarah Palin speaks, there should be people carrying a large banner reading: So how's that "Drill Baby Drill" thingy workin' out for ya'?
Has this happened yet?
I don't think it's a question of intelligence, so much, as the general inclination of politicians who are still actively seeking a constituency's votes to lie to them, and sometimes to even stop lying to them once they're done seeking those votes. It's not exactly a secret on the 'right' side of the spectrum that a lot of 'conservatives' in office aren't really very conservative, they just play conservatives on the campaign trail. I would assume there's some awareness on the 'left' of the same thing going on in your camp?
Now, this IS going to look like politicians getting smarter when they stop running for office, if, and only if, you're looking at politicians who happened to agree with you about something, and were lying to somebody else. "He's finally smartened up and disagreed with me!" not being a sentiment most people would think to utter, no matter where they're situated on the political spectrum…
There's an obvious alternative explanation in the case of Lincoln Diaz-Balart, Marco Rubio, & Jeb Bush. (All either in office or arguably still nursing ambition.) Normal people will not be eager to support a law that could adversely affect their own wives & children this way.
Not to step on a passable joke, but this isn't a case of Frist & Ridge being more honest because they're out of office. Ridge had a moderate (by contemporary Republican standards) position on immigration. (He voted for IRCA in the House & had awkward relations w/ the anti-immigration fringe as governor & DHS secretary.) Frist, well, you know.
