this has got to be the lamest excuse going: "oh, the chimperor isn't one of US! wherever did you get THAT impression?"

[hsher]

1. Unbelievable

They're like a squirming, greased earthworm, these people. There is no way to nail them down to the truth. They slime out from under it every time.

[HaggardsMethDealer]

2. It's the hip new fashion!!

Also getting a lot of "Well, I was always more of a Libertarian anyway." (as they are furiously peeling off their Bush/Cheney bumper stickers.

Idiots.

Sucks that we have to share a country with these imbeciles.

[LetsGoMurphys]

[rusty charly]

[rusty charly]

10. Dumping him faster than

an SUV driver with $4/gal. gas.

[kentuck]

9. I thought he got 60million votes in 2004?

How many more Republicans are there??

[Straight Shooter]

11. Democrats always stood by Bill Clinton and the party he represents.

We disagreed with Bill, we all suffered the ridicule when the Blue Dress Debacle was the one and only show on the media, but we never distanced ourselves from him. Well, Joe Lieberman being the exception.

Just goes to show, Repubs are fair weather friends.

Hey, george, sorry about your buddies deserting you. :nopity:

12. Ideology Has Consequences

I was like 'John in the forest' telling them that their party had been hijacked.....but none listened

Straussian, Christian Fundamentalism and Texas Gunslinging Republican ideologies are a dangerous, dangerous mix

back in 2001-2004

They thought I was some kind of nut




American Conservative Magazine

Ideology Has Consequences



Bush rejects the politics of prudence.

by Jeffrey Hart

Many Republicans must feel like that legendary man at the bar on the Titanic. Watching the iceberg slide by outside a porthole, he remarked, “I asked for ice. But this is too much.” Republicans voted for a Republican and got George W. Bush, but his Republican Party is unrecognizable as the party we have known.

snip

The post-2000 conservative movement has abandoned all that to back Bush and has followed him over the cliff into our calamity in Iraq. On top of all that, the Bush presidency has been fueled by the moral authoritarianism of the current third evangelical awakening.

snip

Before long, students may be allowed to take entire history courses in the expanding library of books analyzing Bush’s Iraq calamity and other failures of his administration, which also derive from his tendency to privilege ideology over realism. Supply-side ideology led to large tax cuts and mountainous deficits. Privatization ideology led to an incomprehensible and unnecessarily expensive prescription-drug plan. No previous administration has produced such an outpouring.

13. The republican party picked Dubya twice, how does the GOP

...explain that?

[badgerpup]

18. So...Diebold DID flip your votes then?

Strange. Why do I remember all these gloats of "Bush..or OUR GUY...won! Get over it!" :sarcasm:

[salin]

26. and the GOP in Congress granted his every whim. So are they, too,

not representative of the Republican party? Than just who does represent the republican party, and why weren't they elected to office? So what party is it that now has the minority in congress?

[rusty charly]

14. here's an example:

15. Who the hell voted for him, then?

If he doesn't represent the Republican Party, who do these fools say they voted for? Who do they think voted for Chimp? Sheesh, these people are pathetic.

[TechBear_Seattle]

16. Isn't the president ALWAYS the de facto head of his party?

That means that Bush is the personification of the Republican Party. :rofl:

[noahmijo]

17. What was it something like 89% of Republicans voted for Bush in 04?

facts don't lie assholes and we don't forgive or forget.

[Zambero]

19. Just how many GOP-ers voted for Kerry?

Maybe 5%? Like the Chimp says, if you're not with us (me), you're against us (me). So anyone who voted for him, is with him!

[radfringe]

20. can't say I didn't warn them 6/15/05

[Rageneau]

21. All conservatives aren't Klansmen, but all Klansmen ARE conservatives.

[caledesi]

22. These are said by neo-cons. They think * is too liberal. LOL!

The freepers have said this a long time. Nothing new. They call themselves "real conservatives," they are really neo-cons. This is the big excuse they have been using for the Republican Party losing. Why don't they start their own party, if they think most Americans think their way...they are clueless.

[seabeyond]

23. then why did they support him twice. why did they tell us he was

placed there by god. why did they call us everything in the book because we saw he was a failure, and they deny it.

[Toots]

24. But he represents America and that is why the world hates America now.

Most people don't really hate America, they hate the current government in America of which Bush* is the head..He is the focal point of their hatred. Republicans put him there so must accept the blame. Of course they will not accept responsibility. They never do...

[oc2002]

25. I think they are just full of shit. GOP + BUSH = X-eme CONSERVATIVES

There is no question that Bush is a prime example of the GOP conservative agenda, tax cuts, debt, increase military spending, and start a war.

Those are the very foundations of conservatives.

case closed.

[Hosnon]

27. He may not be the head of Conservatism but he is definitely the head of the Republican

Party...as it is known today.
