Is the Republican Party Dead or Dying? Part II

Have crack attorneys for the RNP filed lawsuits challenging the vote in every precinct with >95% of the vote or where a candidate (e.g. Obama) got an impossible 99% of the vote?

Nope. The leadership is too busy doing backroom deals - give us a tax exclusion zone for drug manufacturers that made buggy whips 150 years ago in Redondo Beach and we will let that guy take his seat (extracting the appropriate contribution to the party for providing the service).

Its a win for everybody except the tax-payers. And there's Boehner offering to get rid of tax havens - which is great except that it turns out the big one that "they" all want to get rid of is the home mortgage deduction, which will go nowhere because the entirety of DC will be chisled off, drenched in tar and feathers and floated out to sea. [It's ok. Go ahead - I live here, but I am a good swimmer].

America died in 2008

It died when Bush and his neo-con cronies decided to whoop in up and have a little party in Iraq that they did not properly prepare for. Sure we stomped them good and sure it was no contest. We just could not afford the little adventure. The Athenian empire collapsed when they engaged in the Sicilian campaign, the paradigm for strategic over-reach.

In reference to my quotation from Herman West, you said Nothing "whacky" about it.

I did not refer to it as "wacky" and agreed with it. I did say it needs to be fleshed out, and it does. That's among the things I tried to do.

They ignored the real issues and failed miserably by NOT ATTACKING Obama for his Marxist-communist agenda.

The Washingtonians stick together, these elections are just to see which faction (communist or blue blood country club banker) gets to control the money they extort under penalty of imprisonment from us working chumps outside of the Beltway.

People still looking to DC to do anything other than raise taxes and take away more freedom no matter which faction is in charge are seriously demented.

Thanks to the imposition of Universal Suffrage via Constitutional Amendment and a media that serves as the Washingtonian propaganda machine, there is no electoral solution to the Washingtonian problem.

Unless the terrorists do us a favor and take it out (unlikely, since even they know the political class in DC make them look like the Salvation Army), the Washingtonians will be there until they steal our last dime.

Then the collapse and reset will begin.

Dead to me for sure.

[Enough is ENOUGH]

“A democracy is always temporary in nature: it simple cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority will always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, (which is) always followed by a dictatorship.”

“...Let us not forget that during the 2004 presidential election, the candidates collectively amassed a war chest of over $2 billion. We know that the individuals, carpetbaggers, organizations and corporations don’t make these donations out of the goodness in their hearts. That’s when we, the citizens, get to take it on the chin in the form of government contracts and special legislation/bills that are decreed to reward these people for their excessive contributions.”
