She compared herself to Lincoln in her concession speech. Maybe we should send her some theater tickets.

Tonight, the nation marks the end of the Republican Party

They say this like it's a bad thing. I've been a conservative republican all my life and I am not shedding a tear for the end of the assistant democRATS who infest the party.

If the Republican Party they wanted was dead, we should celebrate!

I prefer to use “Americans” versus “Anti-Americans.” It’s intuitive, concise, and clearly describes the deadly seriousness of the irreconcilable divide that we now face. The Left and their RINO co-conspirators have crafted their false narrative of “insurrection” by “white supremacists” in order to “other” normal, decent Americans who simply refuse to go along with their immoral and destructive agenda. They’re trying to portray us as outsiders to the country who shouldn’t even be listened to because we’re not a valid part of the “society” and “culture.” they think they’ve concocted.

Of course, reality is exactly the opposite of their claims. THEY are the alien invaders who refuse to accept American traditions, culture, and morality. Time to fight fire with fire and turn the tables on them. American vs. anti-American.

A glorious plan. I am including a set of tickets to the Lincoln theater in the box with a dozen dildos. She can pick one and go the the theater to announce her run as the first peniled woman candidate. Well, first Pubbie anyway.

That vulnerability would have to be exposed by a clever opponent. Does such an opponent exist?

And her chicken-hawking Lincoln Project buddies. This should be the end of their time as a supposedly Republican organization. If Trumpians were so authoritarian, they’d have been gone long ago. But this is the very last straw.

Remember when Democrats sang a different tune on Dick Cheney?

Bill Press: Dick Cheney is the perfect choice — for Democrats
By Bill Press/CNN

July 27, 2000
Web posted at: 4:00 p.m. EDT (2000 GMT)

WASHINGTON (CNN) — What a difference one appointment can make.

After months of complaining by down-in-the-mouth Democrats - frustrated by Gore’s lackluster campaign and Bush’s seemingly well-oiled machine, the tide and tenor have suddenly improved dramatically.

“Hey, we’re really excited with this Cheney appointment,” a labor leader called to tell me. “For us, this is money in the bank!” And, indeed, for Democrats, it is. Aside from Strom Thurmond of South Carolina or North Carolina’s Jesse Helms, Dick Cheney is the best choice George Bush could have made.

Strategically, it’s hard to fathom what prompted Bush to pick Cheney. He already had Texas and Wyoming. No help needed from Cheney. He already had the conservative base locked up. No need to pick someone even more conservative than he is. He already had a wealth of energetic and colorful choices: from Arizona’s John McCain to Chuck Hagel of Nebraska to Ohio Rep. John Kasich. No need to go for the dullest of all.

I have yet to hear any Bushie explain what Cheney brings to the ticket, other than the experience and gravitas that Bush himself so clearly lacks. Or is Bush so cocky about winning that he doesn’t think he needs any help?

But if Cheney brings nothing to the Republican ticket, he is a gold mine to the Democratic ticket: giving Gore and Democrats a great opportunity and a delicious target.

For Gore, it’s the opportunity, by contrast, to pick a more dynamic running mate. That won’t be hard. Today’s John Kerry of Massachusetts, Florida’s Bob Graham, Evan Bayh of Indiana, House Secretary Andrew Cuomo and Dick Durbin of Illinois are all younger and more exciting than yesterday’s Dick Cheney.

For Democrats, it’s the opportunity to paint both Bush and Cheney as too far right and too far out of the mainstream for most Americans. Indeed, Cheney’s not just a conservative, he’s an extreme, right-wing conservative.

In his 12 years in Congress, Cheney voted against the ERA; against funding for Head Start; against refunding for the Clean Water Act; against creation of the Department of Education; against funding for Superfund; against the Older Americans Act, providing food and support for poor senior citizens; against a resolution asking the South African government to release Nelson Mandela from prison. Cheney makes Newt Gingrich look like a liberal.

And this is the man Bush has selected as his “partner in a vision to renew America’s purpose”? Whatever happened to the compassion in compassionate conservative?

What’s funny now is hearing the howls of protest from the Bush camp over reaction to Cheney’s appointment. First, they accuse reporters of “distorting” Cheney’s record, which is utter nonsense. His votes are all recorded in the Congressional Record. And the Congressional Record does not lie.

Second, they argue it’s not fair holding someone responsible for his actions 15 or 20 years ago. That’s strange. Hasn’t the Bush campaign attacked Al Gore for his misguided votes in Congress, 20 years ago, against federal funding for abortion? And isn’t Ken Starr’s office still conducting a Republican-led investigation into a failed real estate deal in Arkansas — remember Whitewater — that happened exactly 15 years ago?

If truth be told, the real reason the Bush campaign doesn’t want anybody raising questions about what happened 20 years ago is because they don’t want George W. Bush to have to answer still-lingering questions about possible cocaine use in his “wild years.”

It is curious, isn’t it? Twenty-five years ago, Dick Cheney was President Ford’s Chief of Staff. What was G. W. doing 25 years ago, and why won’t he tell us?

Bottom line. Dick Cheney’s the best vice-presidential nominee since Dan Quayle. His selection is the first flat tire for the Bush campaign. It’s not exactly like handing Al Gore the keys to the White House, but it does give Gore an excellent opening to pull ahead.

We’ll know soon if the vice-president takes advantage of it.

When Lincoln log pedos and takei are her only fans then she’s officially graduated to becoming a fag hag. Not much of a career move unless you’re trying to get a gig as a judge on The Masked Singer.

I wish our RINOs switch parties officially and join the Democrat Party and try to pull make towards the middle.

‘If Liz Cheney runs against Trump in the Republican primaries, she’ll be able to say what others won’t dare say: that Trump lost the 2020 election, lied to the nation about it, incited an insurrection, and is a continuing threat to our national security,’ Takei wrote. ‘I’m here for it.’

Good grief ya arsehole, she has been able and has been saying that along with her RAT buddies for years now. Nothing shuts up that sour mouf.

If she runs for POTUS it will be great to see her sorry azz get kicked to the curb all over again,
