This has been a strange presser, but with some good humor.
The hard fact is, this seems to be somewhat of a white flag being raised. I don't know how or when Republicans are going to realize that working with democrats can't be done. The current group of activist morons that make up the majority of the upcoming congress could be our downfall in 2008 and after.
I believe democrats will sit on their agenda and will mobilize even more for 2008. If they get a democrat in the White House, we are screwed as a country.
They will then control the judicial, legislative and administrative branches, yep, all of them. They will ram a socialist government down our throats. The media will be even more bias than Al Jazeera (and they are evenly bias now), and as a middle to upper class citizen in this country, you will now change from the driving force of this economy, to the main supplier of income for the lazy do nothings.
The looming Social Security disaster will kill any resemblence of a strong economy and drive tax rates in upwards of 50%-65%. We have been warned about this coming disaster, but again have refused to listen.
Illegals will become a new strong voting base for the democrats, leaving another ignorant group of people who are completely uninterested in educating themselves on facts vulnerable to the elitist leftists once again. Just another slave vote for the liberals. Blacks in this country as a whole have ruined themselves due to this same factor, and now Spanish speaking only illegals will take over as the majority minority.
We will turn our backs on another group of soldiers during a time of war. The difference this time, is that these kids voluntarily signed up to go, and continue to sign up in record numbers to return, yet we still refuse to listen to them and support them in their endevours and beliefs in Iraq. But of course, those troops are just stupid and stuck.
We let this happen. We as Republicans have chosen leaders who we thought were tough, competent and conservative, only to realize that their spines were removed upon their D.C arrival by Dr. Congressional Power. Where is our Newt!? Where are our Hawks!?
If we have any chance of surviving, people that are not life time millionares, not lawyers and certainly not life time government employees have to begin a political revolution of sorts. Run for office people!!!!! Do not sit back and wait for a good talker in a suit only to be double crossed again. If we do not do it right now, we might as well give up.
No Romney, no Guilianni, no Allen (no chance now anyway), no McCcain. I do not want another guy who has been inside Washington too long.
We are the backbone of this country, it is about time we controlled its movements.
TAKE THIS COUNTRY BACK NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If that press conference Bush just had doesn't shut up the Bush bots around here then nothing will...bush was never a Conservative
Good thing our Republican Party has worked so hard and diligently to stem the overwhelming deluge of illegals entering the U.S.
Go COCKS!
Well, the last time she had them, she attempted her Health Care Power Grab and as a result she handed the House and Senate to the Republicans for 12 years.
Maybe now the Republicans will remember why they got put in charge in the first place, and maybe so will the voters.
You're being melodramatic...
Stop it..
Dems got a majority in the house, that's all..
Maybe they'll get a majority in the senate..
So What??
That doesn't guarantee the passage of any laws, unless the republicans cooperate and vote with them..
Even if the Dems pass a bill with a simple majority, of say, one or two votes, it means nothing...
President Bush can veto it..
Then they will need a 2/3 majority to override the veto..
If they can manage to get enough republicans to vote with them to override a presidential veto, then I'll start to worry..
Then again, if Bush doesn't veto it, I'll be worried too..
If that were the case, I would say we misunderestimated him.. badly...
I know. Heath Schuler? WTF?
I did my duty. I voted against Harold Ford Jr.
And I salute you. That damn cracka, oops, I mean Harold Ford Joonya is a joke.
I saw the vacillating, the spinelessness, the midnight pay raises, the ineffectiveness...
I looked in the tea cup and saw the future..
I am however, a pragmatist..
The republicans did better as a minority party..
They never got used to the idea of being the majority, and in power..
They never got used to the idea that they could "hammer" through legislation..
They let the democrats run the show, and became corrupted..
We'll get new leadership, maybe a new, revitalized agenda..
Hopefully, the republicans, as the underdog, can get their spine back, and some morals...
Maybe a new, third party will come forth with some principles...
I said in 2000 that there was no real difference between Gore and Bush..
Except, with Bush, the sleigh ride to hell would be a little slower...
My prediction has held true..
That was a fine sentiment for Monday. It's Wednesday. Too late, son; the traitorous American public has, once again, stabbed its warriors in the back.
