In the past, in order to continue as a candidate, a serious candidate, you had to be in the top three finishes in iowa. you had to be in the top two out of new hampshire. all our presidents elected in the past half-century finished either first or second in new hampshire and in the top three in iowa. that changed with the citizens united, when we gave unlimited amounts of money.

More From Mark Shields

To walk in money through the night crowd, protected by money, lulled by money, dulled by money, the crowd itself a money, the breath money, no least single object anywhere that is not money. money, money everywhere and still not enough! and then no money, or a little money, or less money, or more money but money always money. and if you have money, or you don't have money, it is the money that counts, and money makes money, but what makes money make money?
Money Night Crowds
Given that the nineteenth century was the century of socialism, of liberalism, and of democracy, it does not necessarily follow that the twentieth century must also be a century of socialism, liberalism and democracy: political doctrines pass, but humanity remains, and it may rather be expected that this will be a century of authority ... a century of fascism. for if the nineteenth century was a century of individualism it may be expected that this will be the century of collectivism and hence the century of the state.

Now, everybody knows the basic erogenous zones. you got one, two, three, four, five, six, and seven. ... ok, now most guys will hit one, two, three and then go to seven and set up camp. ... you want to hit 'em all and you wanna mix 'em up. you gotta keep 'em on their toes. ... you could start out with a little one. a two. a one, two, three. a three. a five. a four. a three, two. two. a two, four, six. two, four, six. four. two. two. four, seven! five, seven! six, seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven!

The first commandment for every good explorer is that an expedition has two points: the point of departure and the point of arrival. if your intention is to make the second theoretical point coincide with the actual point of arrival, don't think about the means -- because the journey is a virtual space that finishes when it finishes, and there are as many means as there are different ways of 'finishing.' that is to say, the means are endless.
Mean Journey Thinking
What do americans know about morality? they don't want their presidents to have penises but they don't mind if their presidents covertly arrange to support the nicaraguan rebel forces after congress has restricted such aid; they don't want their presidents to deceive their wives but they don't mind if their presidents deceive congress- lie to the people and violate the people's constitution!

And a charge of lying against someone whom you have always found truthful is a very serious thing; a very serious thing indeed.

Let's put one lie to rest for all time: the lie that men are oppressed, too, by sexism-the lie that there can be such a thing as men's liberation groups.

'liar' is just as ugly a word as 'thief,' because it implies the presence of just as ugly a sin in one case as in the other. if a man lies under oath or procures the lie of another under oath, if he perjures himself or suborns perjury, he is guilty under the statute law.
Liars Lying Men
When a woman is frozen of feeling, when she can no longer feel herself, when her blood, her passion, no longer reach the extremities of her psyche, when she is desperate; then a fantasy life is far more pleasurable than anything else she can set her sights upon. her little match lights, because they have no wood to burn, instead burn up the psyche as though it were a big dry log. the psyche begins to play tricks on itself; it lives now in the fantasy fire of all yearning fulfilled. this kind of fantasizing is like a lie: if you tell it often enough, you begin to believe it.
