t was with bewildered amusement that I watched Republican commentators attempt to soften the blow of an election that was a complete blowout victory for the Democrats. Not being much of a fan of political parties in the first place, I am nevertheless tempted to offer some simple advice to the wounded Elephant. Some blamed prima-donna Palin for the loss, while others saw it as a clear indication that the great masses just wanted Mommy Party to put a big red, white, and blue band-aid on the country while Daddy Party went back to the bar for some smokes and a whiskey. But really, the Republicans have only themselves to blame. No matter how easy it was to make fun of the Wasilla hillbilly and John McCain's rapidly shrinking fan-base, it was the GOP's mishandling of the national trust for eight years that put them on the ropes. Waking up with one hell of a headache November 5th, conservatives found themselves once again swindled by revival-tent rabble rousers preaching fear, and 21st Century snake oil salesmen out to make a quick buck on the rhetoric of patriotism. It was absolutely astonishing to hear one pundit say that the Republican Party needed to get back to its roots and find its principles. This, after a Republican primary season that saw a genuine Republican, Ron Paul, marginalized by his own party as a dangerous extremist for not pandering to the plutocracy or the Religious Right. And he still managed to set a new record for millions raised in a single day. As Paul quickly becomes an underground reference (don't be surprised if you see his face on some vintage-style tees at Urban or something), The Republicans are left wondering, what now? After the election, the State Republican Chair so insightfully noted that the "big tent" party has recently been less than welcoming, especially to the GLBT community. Since the Nixon years, the Republican Party has become the bastion of, to put it bluntly, "Whitey". No matter how many Condi Rices or Alberto Gonzales' the Bush administration could pull out of its magic hat, we all tacitly understood that these appointments were public relation motivated, and that the main base of the party would continue to be white males between 22-50 who really like NASCAR, Budweiser, and AC/DC. Either that, or they are making more than $100-200,000 annually. To reverse its current situation, The GOP could, if it wanted to, compromise on hot-button issues that ultimately do not affect national concerns like the economy or wars in distant lands. They could start with Same-Sex Marriage, for example. Let the States do what they want, and keep the Supreme Court or a Constitutional Amendment out of it. How about that word that rhymes with Shmishshmorshion? If your high school buddy just got blown up in Iraq and your parents have defaulted on their mortgage, you've got bigger things to worry about than Molly Jones at the clinic. The Republicans could be smart and limit their activity to blocking attempts by the Democrats to pass more convoluted federal legislation. If the GOP did things like that and pushed for drug legalization, they'd have more than a few new faces at the polls for them. Judging by McCain's selection of Sarah Palin as a running-mate, however, the Republican Party still foolishly chooses to believe there are more Bible-beatin' Christians than both potheads and gays. It's a curious move for the one-time party of intellectualism: throw an ex-beauty queen whose passions in life are hunting, shopping, and Jesus into the national arena. Oh, and that's not pandering to the Religious Right AND your core audience of white guys at the same time? There's even Sarah Palin porn. With the Republicans still trying to find the one scrap of dignity they left in the bathroom, the Democrats are set to sit on the stinkiest of stink that Bush and Co. left in the stall. Good luck flushing that one. If you ever wanted to start a band or are thinking about staying in school for a Master's Degree, now is the time to do it because it's going to get worse before it gets better.

Potheads, fags, and wetbacks will save the party? Ridiculous. All they need to win crushing victories is the white vote at the rate asians and hispanics vote democrat. The christian right only matters because of israel; if the author is creeped out by Jesus, he should recommend ditching Jews instead.
All they need to win crushing victories is the white vote at the rate (blacks, commies), asians and hispanics vote democrat. The christian right only matters because of israel; if the author is creeped out by Jesus, he should recommend ditching Jews instead. Perfect analysis ! The country would still be in trouble since the Repubs aren't any better than the Dems. They're all corrupt and socialist.
Poop. The message of small government is DOA thanks to both wings of the National Party and their love affair with illegal aliens. Adios GOP'ers. I knew you folks were losers way back in '92 when you rejected Buchanan's recommendation for a border fence (Houston convention speech), and Perot's call for fiscal sanity.
yes, the author assumes that Christian principles are the GOP socialist or neocon ones, which is false. Likening Christianity to the republican leadership and it's failures of the last 8 years is not only absurd, it seems like a purposely contrived & purposely misleading viewpoint. furthermore we all know the bush's arent Christians,.. they themselves are fag devil worshippers and literal murderers. Does anyone who post here not know that, really?
Glory to God in the highest, and Peace to His people on Earth. The Republicans were INTENTIONALLY set up to lose and McCain was the designated loser. Notice the repetition of the meme on Sarah Palin "the Hillbilly from Wasilla". McCain was broke and about to be forced out of the race when on one weekend 6 major Noozepapers came out endorsing him. That did not occur by accident people. Ron Paul, had he been allowed to gain the nomination, would have buried Oh'bummer and that was a real fear among the controllers. The reason the Republicans lost was because they INTENTIONALLY threw the match. Oh'bummer was catapulted past Hitlery by fraud and PsyOps hype in the media. It is really that simple. It was a set-up and McCain "taking a dive" from the get-go. I think the only reason they waited so long to select McCain was that they wanted to ensure they picked someone who could not possibly win. Sarah Palin was a mistake, whatever may be said about her, as she insisted upon thinking for herself and being her own woman. That is the "why" for all of the continued attacks on her.

"Mr. Ambivalent" Poppy Bush threw the match after his 1st term as well in the opinion of many. Law Enforcement Against Prohibition Countries Without a Draft circa 2001 (You'll need this soon if you have kids) RUN SILENT, RUN DEEP With the clarity of 20-20 hindsight I would agree. Poppy had already served 2 1/2 terms (dating from when Reagan was shot but did not have the good grace to die as planned) and was ready to hand it over to another operative to take things in new directions i.e., Kosovo, Waco, and OKC. No, none of that was an accident.

It is.
Yes. McCain became the front runner for the loss of the quarterback position overnight. Behold the power of the Zio-media. TA-DAH!

Yes. McCain became the front runner for the loss of the quarterback position overnight. Behold the power of the Zio-media. TA-DAH! While the media is very influential don't overestimate their power. The endorsements were simply cover for the fraud that was to follow, but it gave the fraud a "fig leaf" of plausibility. The Primaries McSlime won immediately after that had obvious elements of fraud.

I must strongly disagree with this part..it was not by Fraud, but by design.. Hillary would have lost to McCain.. her internal negs even in her own party, were just that bad. By allowing O to win, the Dems get Hillary in a top spot and win the race.

By allowing O to win, the Dems get Hillary in a top spot and win the race. I agree that it was by design (the fraud of which I speak is vote fraud used to help Oh'bummer), but Hitlery would have won the Democrat Nomination without vote fraud to help Oh'bummer win enough primaries early on. While I agree Hitlery is very much not popular with some segments of the population, like moi, it is not a foregone conclusion that she would have lost to McNutz. Likely but not certain. That is probably what the Polling was showing the people who actually run the show - that Hitlery was a possible loser because of the negatives and that it would be too hard to steal enough votes and not be obvious. However, more importantly from the point of view of pushing the Bankster/Globalist Totalitarian agenda is that Hitlery's negatives would have made it very difficult to forward the agenda without major opposition so a psychological blow was delivered to defuse the reaction. And whereas Hitlery would have had trouble pushing the agenda items with the Obamessiah the Sucker Class will clamor for the Obamessiah to save them, trade their liberty for an illusory security, from the catastrophe his masters have created.

Any and all "fictions" must be shunned, especially "legal fictions". These are frauds that distort reality and lead to the place where we are today. We live in a false paradigm where corporations and foundations run things without conscience, our fiat (fake money) currency keeps us enslaved and we ourselves are deprived of our natural rights because we have become unnatural entities through the fraud of socialist security. Accept one fraud because it's convenient to you and you have to accept them all because they're convenient to others.
sort of related, i came across this gem today and thought it was very interesting , regarding the fbi meddling and media. the fbi docs will show they wrote that actress Jean Seberg "should be neutralized". this actress ended up committting suicide. mission accomplished! Glory to God in the highest, and Peace to His people on Earth. You Marxist-Stalinist-Fabian Socialist-Che Obamalamadingdongs crack me up. Still stuck on stupid, all of you Globalist Partisan Constitution haters.
4um Traitor Interesting link. I never heard of her. But I heard of cointelpro. Lying FBI assholes. They lied and murdered then, and they lie and murder now. .
Click for Privacy and Preparedness files Nehemiah 4:14 And I looked and arose and said to the nobles and to the officials and to the rest of the people, “Do not be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your homes.”
More than likely he was just throwing us some "red meat". I doubt very seriously that he's an O'bot.
