The Planet’s Worst Nightmare: A Republican White House (super barf alert)
The New Republic ^ | 23 Nov, 2015 | REBECCA LEBER

Posted on 11/24/2015 3:35:49 PM PST by MtnClimber

In the second Democratic debate, Hillary Clinton deflected a question about her electability with an observation that could apply to pretty much any issue in the presidential race. She noted "there are some differences among" the Democratic candidates, but those differences "pale compared to what’s happening on the Republican side." Climate change was one of the fundamental divides that she cited. In an exclusive interview last month, Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta told me, "Politics is largely about friction. And I view this as a place of high friction with the Republican candidates today."

If Democrats succeed in making climate a vital issue that helps them win in 2016, Republicans will be forced to contend with some awkward arguments they’d much rather continue to ignore.

Their greatest fear is the terror of a Ted Cruz presidency.

They just know that under his iron theocratic fist the oceans will rise the temperatures will soar, people will drive bigger cars, solar energy will be outlawed and windmills will stop spinning, polar bears will die, penguins will perish, homosexuals will be shot on sight and Muslims will tortured with bacon, Mexicans will leave the country, forcing college professors to become migrant farm workers, hotel maids and landscapers. The EPA, and IRS will be abolished and planned parenthood will shut down, women will lose the right to choose to kill their baby or to cry rape after they change their mind or to divorce and receive cash and prizes. Black lives will not matter except for the good ones and the Europeans will think America is puritanical and public schools will not have common core, but math, civics and Latin, the teacher's unions will be abolished and good teachers will have to become strippers just to make ends meet, and the homeless will swept away to live in shelters, and there will be a war with Isis and micro aggression will be encouraged. ....

“I’m convinced these lunatics will not be satisfied until we all are submitting to Sharia law or suffering through an endless nuclear winter.”

They are never satisfied. One of their trademarks is no matter how much chaos they cause, how much suffering, they will always be able to blame it on someone else.

Remember the killing fields of the Kymer Rouge in Campodia?

The left blamed it on the U.S. Certainly you remember that.

No matter how much evil the left is able to perpetrate, they can always do more.

I don’t know what this idiot author is whining about. We had a republic WH before and the country is still standing. (I am talking bout Reagan, BTW, not RINOBush

Rebecca Leber is not long out of college. She probably remembers as far back as Clinton, with Bush 43 being the guy she was taught to hate by the media that she decided to join. The poor, dim-bulb child wouldn't know what to make of Reagan.
