Yes. Hadn't you noticed?
I find it hard to accept, too, Mona, but no matter how "engaging and amiable" a leftist seems to be on the surface, he's almost certainly a Stalin or Mugabe at heart.
When was it ever? When you were a girl Mona?
Post election is time for gloating if you won and pointing fingers and whining if you lost.
Guess what? Nothing unites us with marxist swine. Nothing. Time to stop pretending.
“small government, right to life, states’ rights, free markets, right to work, judicial restraint, family values.”
Gee, I thought these were some of the things that made America great and set us apart from the rest of the world.
I have relatives I refuse to speak to because they voted for Obama.
I am not looking to be friendly with people who are brain dead.
The Nazi democrat party and their flop-eared Leninst god have declared war against America. Let’s see if enough people can figure that out and get organized enough to field the leadership and manpower to fight back. I have my doubts. About 10% will be involved and engaged, just like in 1776.
As Twain said, History doesn’t repeat itself but it sure rhymes.
Everything is just a lot of talk. The media keeps talking and Obama is still President. They want him to keep his addiction to spending, blaming and telling lies.
Yes, Ken, tell us how we'd support this Marxist/Islamofascist if he were white.
Descend? Really?
It’s hardly a 'descent' if you have been a careful observer of his work.
There has never been any doubt in my mind about the steel core of his single-minded and unalloyed Socialism. It has driven his entire work product... and is apparent in everything he says and does, unless you permit yourself to be caught up in the smooth and seamless delivery!
This, “False accusations of racism are an attempt to delegitimize those who disagree with you.” needs to be bumper sticker.
Uh, The Civil War was pretty much Shelby Foote's movie, and I don't think Mr. Foote had any illusions about race relations in this country. Burns merely edited a book to video.
Oooh, I can. Check Bush v. Gore and the minority (Left) dissent: Souter, Breyer, and Stevens!
The goal of the Democrats isn’t to beat their opposition, the goal is to crush them. That should be obvious to anyone who has come into contact with these creatures on the internet.
Do you think we'd even have Obama "if this president wasn't African-American?"

What now, conservatives? Relax, we’re winning the war

Not too long ago I wrote a column about how dynamic and vigorous the conservative movement in this country was and how quickly it was morphing into the most potent American political force of the young century.
The conservative wave of the future, I called it.
At first blush, looking at last Tuesday’s election results, it looks as if my prognosis was just a hair off, having missed the mark by about a century. On Wednesday, the conservative movement lay seemingly battered on the shore, looking less like a tidal wave than a wrecked ship run aground by a tsunami.
That’s exactly what the mainstream media called it in the wake of President Obama’s re-election. The president’s expansive electoral army of 2008, they intoned, was not a one-time deal after all but a durable coalition capable of dominating American politics for a generation or more.
To hear the tale, the Republican Party has lost everyone in the country except old, white men. Minorities, women, the young, environmentalists, urban liberals – this is the alliance of victory and of the future.
I beg to differ. The election results notwithstanding, this analysis is deeply blinkered. Indeed, a close look at the returns indicates big trouble looming for the Democratic Party, not for the GOP.
No, I am not out in Colorado smoking newly legal weed. Consider this: Mr. Obama’s durable coalition was considerably weaker this time around. As of Nov. 8, for example, the president had received about nine-million fewer votes than he did in 2008. Not all the ballots had been counted, and that number will shrink, but he clearly will receive substantially fewer votes than his remarkable 2008 total.
On the other side of the coin, the Democrats have their own growing racial problem – their inability to attract white voters. Winning only 39 percent of 72 percent of the electorate gives the opposition 42 percent of the total vote from the get-go. That should give Democratic Party leaders pause because, given population trend lines, the proportion of white voters is likely to remain above 60 percent for at least the next 20 years.
None of this is to say the GOP doesn’t have a minority conundrum. Any time you get less than 25 percent of the nonwhite vote, it’s a problem, and a growing one if the GOP can’t make inroads into those constituencies.
So both parties have voting-bloc impediments beyond their respective foundations, but this begs the question, which is more likely to hold and enlarge its base?
That quite clearly would be the Republican Party. Let’s take a look at why the mainstream media consensus is biased.
First, the voting blocs are mischaracterized. The Republican base is defined as a mass of old, white voters, while the Democratic Party is depicted as a broad and sweeping coalition. On Election night, for example, after exit polls were reviewed, ABC News blared out: “Obama’s winning coalition of women and nonwhites.”
Look again, though, and there is no ‘and’ in the mix. Mr. Obama’s base is nonwhite voters and, as a practical matter, nonwhite voters only. Sure, radical white feminists, white urban liberals, young white college students and white environmentalists are there, but those activist pods represent a miniscule share of the voting population.

That is what happens when way too many Republicans, esp ones in congress,+Romney enthusiasts live in a fantasy world where most voters see things exactly the way they do. In that world all the polls are wrong, "they must be rigged because everyone agrees with me, I know it"
After all Rs in congress won 2010 didnt they? Wasnt that proof they would win 2012 without a fight? without convincing others (who are not Rush 24/7 members or loyal FNC watchers) needed to vote? Why figure out how to beat O when you know the voters agree with YOU already?
If Dems were so clueless and got beat in all those swing states after being sure they would win, like they did in 2004, we would certainly be gloating. Sadly some are still living in that imaginary world.
The question now is do they turn it around like Pelosi and CO did in GWB second term and make voters sorry they re-elected O? Or do Republicans show that that they are incapable of learning anything?
It doesn’t matter if they win or lose - the Left will never let up and until we get the same type rabid unity, they will continue to take us to the depths of ruin.
On a local Reno TV show this weekend, a man who I think is the head of the Democrat party in Washoe county said that Planned Parenthood does NOT do abortions and DOES do mammograms.
The woman who is the head of the Republican party in Washoe county tried to tell him the facts and all he did was snort at her. She finally laughed at him.
With that level of refusal to find out or know the facts is the level of Democrat leadership we have here in Nevada. That bleeds on down to the Democrat voters.
I cannot fix stupid—even on the level of County party chairman.
It’s going to be funny to watch. The folks in the cities are going to demand that the folks in the country keep paying for their lifestyle, their benefits, their social programs, etc.
This will breakdown to economics, ultimately.
However, the way it will deconstruct and decay will be along racial lines almost certainly. The system will fail, and it will fall to families to rely upon their own resources rather than the government’s.
The white and hispanic families in flyover country will have prepared themselves. Asian families too.
Broken families in the cities, of every color, will just dissolve into something very ugly indeed.
Races in the cities will start sticking together, and you’ll have race on race violence almost certainly.
All the resources are in flyover country. All the weapons and bases of any real merit are in flyover country (Fort Lewis being an exception).
The liberals will have a navy, and the rest will have the bases and the missile silos.
There is a reason why Quebec decided not to secede: they couldn’t afford to live outside of a country almost completely supported by Alberta.
Not bad from the likes of Mona Charen, who is an idiot when it comes to immigration.
