A Return to Triangulation (libertarion vs social right)
National Review Online ^ | 10/25/06 | David Boaz & David Kirby

Posted on 10/25/2006 11:10:46 AM PDT by Blackirish

As the Republican base fragments and Christian conservatives consider a “fast” from politics, the polling data point to a mid-term Republican thumping. Less than two weeks from now, Republicans will begin their post-mortem soul searching. And as the corpses of their House and Senate majorities grow cold, so should Karl Rove’s 2006 campaign strategy.

Ms. Coulter destroyed her credibility with her idiotic statements about science (yes, evolution is a study within the science of biology). I no longer feel confident quoting any claims from her previous books unless I have researched them myself. I seriously doubt I will ever buy another one of her books.

I'm certain that she will miss the income. And the study of polywater was within the science of chemistry.

I think you Creator deniers are forgetting where you are. This is NOT Darwin Central. Keep your insults to yourself.

Anyone who is not an evofundie who has spent even a minimal amount of time on the evo/crevo threads will know that the evofundies delight in the worst excesses of loathesome speech, specializing in the lowest insults towards any religious believers.

I've seen stuff I would never have believed if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes. That's why I pretty much stay off those threads.

"The Republican Party can still be reformed from within, the Democrats have passed the point of no return."

Since the early 90s, I have regarded the Democrats as a quasi-criminal enterprise, akin to the Mafia. Just look at the conduct of most of their members. To be fair, the Democrats weren't always so. Zell Miller, Patrick Moynihan, and some others were the last of a breed that gave respectibility to the Democrat party.

The scary part is with respect to the attempt of the Rockefeller Republicans to turn the Republican party into a caricature of what it was once regarded--a bunch of chubby dudes in suits smoking cigars in a backroom looking to stick it to the average person.
I would not be surprised, as some others have noted, if a populist party does raise in the US--nature abhors a vacuum.
Side note: re: my post 168 with respect to the conduct of certain individuals and the intervening posts. Your honor, the evidence is overwhelming. I rest my case.

What makes you think they were surprised? Disappointed, maybe, but surprised? Seems unlikely.

"Buncha people just got tossed over the side of the FR boat. Now they're venting a bit. Are you surprised? I'm not."

Unlike some other instances in the past, I think its more like what would have happened if the passengers of the Achille Lauro deciding that they've had enough of the hijackers and their demands, and threw them over the side instead of being polite and watching Leon Klinghoffer getting thrown over.

Dissembling behavior is unbecoming, BTW.

"Science is political. It doesn't have a choice."
--- Stanley Aronowitz, Marxist academic.

"All science is political."
--- Anne Norton, leftist pomo academic. University of Pennsylvania.

"Science is political. No scientist, however pure his or her research may appear to be, can escape the political setting in which science operates - or its political power in setting public agendas."
--- Nicholas Hildyard, left-wing environmentalist.
"All knowledge, including science, is political."
--- Sandra Harding, leftist feminist.

And here's one more to add...

"There's nothing more political than science. Any science, at any level."
-- Jim Robinson, ????

Who is the Marxist tool again?

No doubt, but then again, I don't care what you think.
