Thanks. #201 was one of my better analogies. It’s addresses one of those crazy ideas floating around here I have been dying to respond to. That “George Soro’s killed the world economy to make Bush look bad, or so Obama would win” , jeeze. Then why wouldnt Soro’s now jump start the economy to save O?
After 8 or more years of republicans creating a bad name, we dont need a majority of the wrong republicans again. We do need a revival of the party, with a new mission. 1993-1995 was such a hopeful time. The useless R party had suddenly been replaced with real conservatives wanting real reform, and reduction of government. Yes, they hit bumps in the road. But we still could feel that they were like us (especially the house.) And they accomplished some great stuff even with Clinton as president (which is why he looks good) .
If we cant get that in the near term, we need enough seats to block democrats.
While I'd have little doubt of Soros' complicity, he didn't act alone, either. You know that damned well too, or should.
"The useless R party had suddenly been replaced with real conservatives wanting real reform, and reduction of government. Yes, they hit bumps in the road."
Forget the 'bumps', what ultimately happened? :o)
"But we still could feel that they were like us (especially the house.)"
*Feel*, is where many went wrong. Or as Waylon once sang, "Be careful of something that's just what you want it to be."
"And they accomplished some great stuff even with Clinton as president (which is why he looks good)."
Shutting down Jellystone Park?
Enabling every damned special interest group of parasites under the sun & focusing 'em on every one of us?
LOL
"If we cant get that in the near term, we need enough seats to block democrats."
Given the state of the republic, that's about the best one could hope. Which would last just long enough for the quisling mediots to demonize the GOP all over again for yet another run at deja vu. LOL
I’m somewhat optimistic that events will ultimately push things in the right direction for conservatives. Palin has the potential to unite a lot of conservatives, some number of indies and perhaps even some Blue Dog dems. And she is demonstrating that she doesn’t need the GOP to be a player.
It will be interesting to see if the passion finally being shown by conservatives will sustain itself through the next presidential election. Happily, The Usurper, Onada, gives us reason to be enraged every day with the direction the country is going.
