How much is President Bush and Bushies to Blame for this Loss?

Hi ya, kstewskis!!!

I'm truly sorry to see JD Hayworth go, but that team of the democrats and MSM proved forceful. 365, 24/7 pounding of POTUS, Iraq and the GOP suckered too many voters.

Hey there onyx!

Ya, pretty effective on their part, sad to say. It'll be interesting to see what the GOP does from here. They need to regroup, rethink their mistakes, and get back on the horse.

I think the most frightening, terrifying words I've heard since the election was over, was by Pelosi. She screeched,

"WE ARE HERE TO GOVERN."

That alone, should send a bone chiling shiver through every living, breathing American.

She is one frightening hag. I just heard that she told Brit, that the war in Iraq is "not a war to be won but a situation to be solved."

[kstewskis]

ugh.

we're screwed.

[onyx]

I think so too. But POTUS has toppled tyrants so one ghastly hag shouldn't be that difficult. Voters don't like the way the war is going, but they'll hate a pull out and defeat ever more.

Good post, Brian. And what a thread! The uncritical, undiscerning Bushies now blaming the mild critics of the Bush regime, all of whom have voted Pubbie at least 3 times since 2000. Here's a Bushie quote that stands out (I don't remember who, it really doesn't matter):

WE are the Republican Party; we're made up of lots of people: (realistic) conservatives and moderates and some even liberal Republicans.

Let me speak what's implied above: "and even some crypto progressives!". In other words, vote Republican, no matter what, don't question, shuddup, principles, ideology don't matter, only the Party does even if it follows NK's Dear Leader! No, thanks, too much monkey business for me to get involved in...

Here's my favourite FReeper analysis today.

Amen! 

[kstewskis]

LOL "ghastly hag!"

SO TRUE!

I'm pretty certain of one thing, that the voters across the country did not mean a "vote for San Francisco values," although the "defecrats" (I took that from a Tucon paper, LOL) would like to think so.

She's already said that she's going to buck for a pull out. It's going to get rough.

[Revolting cat!]

Hurray for our team!

Now you're made your bed by continually trashing that man for six years.

The only true bar to the truth, is to think you alread have it. Howlin, you don;t have a clue.

This loss is to blame on only the republicans whom wanted to punish the gop by staying home or voting third party.

We used to call this Whistling in the dark, but now I call it pure B$
