The Republican Party will go as far as it has to get rid of the Tea Party. The problem is not that the Republican Party is getting rid of the Tea Party. The problem is that the Tea Party won’t get rid of the Republican Party.

“What does any of that have to do with the topic at hand?”

I can’t believe you actually asked that question. Just trying to be irrationally argumentative or just really that stupid?

I just have to wonder, you bash on Levin all the time, now you are going after Rush. What is your agenda? Seriously, I haven’t heard you on the radio, haven’t come across your writings in the national papers, so I guess having the answers in your own mind should be shared. Do it, share them far and wide and I can discern if you have the answers to our current troubles. Thanks in advance.

OK,
I had a freeper come on this thread at link and was critical just because I explained exactly how the shutdown fiasco would end, which it did very close in details. Said it was defeatist to share that with others.

Boehner's Shutdown End-game play (you won't like it) SOL of course | 10/15/2013 |

When propaganda is worshiped then Truth is the enemy.

I will admit that way more Republicans voted for it than I expected.

The GOP in Iowa is floating a plank of the party position that supports gay marriage, amnesty, and gun control.

They (the GOP) really wants to be the Dems.

Hispanics.

They have the demographic data, and know that they have to dump the perception of being the party of white men.

If Rush wants to be relevant again; if he really thinks this country is doomed, he needs to put his money where his mouth is and run for office.

Tell you what, since you seem to think you are the arbiter of relevance, why don't you put YOUR money where your mouth is and run for, lets say, congress.....Not up to it? Then get yourself your own syndicated radio show.

As for your snarky comments regarding his books and tea, sounds like nothing more than class envy and petty jealousy. If you were smart, you'd direct us to your website so maybe we could buy YOUR book........

Of course being an armchair political analyst is always easier from your recliner isn't it, especially when you can run to the fridge for another beer during commercials.......

As a side note, with his contractual salary, Rush doesn't need to sell tea to be rich. The creation of Two if by Tea's primary goal was to create a revenue source for the Marine Corps - Law Enforcement Foundation (MC-LEF) and other cheritable organizations and has donated over $1 million dollars since its creation in June of 2011.........

And do I need to mention Rush's annual Leukemia Radio-thon where he ultimately matches every dollar pledged during the drive?

Your baseless criticism of Rush is unwarranted just as your ignorance of his Two if by Tea.............

That’s priceless. They’ll get 1 hispanic vote for every 2 the democrats get. Some “new base”!

And by getting rid of the existing base, the GOP is done.

Yet that is the plan. It will give a lot of cheap labor to their big donors though, so the GOPe will be taken care of.

They think it will materialize from Independents joining up with the RINOs.

Hmm, I don’t think trading more than 50% of your base for a potential gain of 10% of the electorate is a smart move, but what do I know? I didn’t go to an Ivy League school :(

Agreed, but I’m pretty sure that’s what they are thinking.
