As tiresome as Reality TV.
Let them: "rather be right(in own minds) then president", they will never win another election
No, they always felt that way. They're just angry that the "little guy", many of whom I suspect are our military and aren't so "little," figured out who was on whose side.
***Jihad? For goodness sake, all Bush voters want is to be left alone on religious matters. Leave the Pledge of Allegiance alone and don't mess with marriage.***
THANK you, Sir. That needed to be said.
Excellent article.
(Man, those farmers are smart. According to Mr. Hunt's bio, he makes greenhouses grow. Who knew you could do that?)
“Republican feelings of superiority.”
Yeah! DUH! Reread the comments by Smiley, Dowd, Krugman, Ferraro, O'Donnell and let's not forget to include the likes of Ivans and Franken and Moore.
It's hardnot to feel superior!
They whine and moan about the oppression that is coming, yet they remain free to whine and moan and decry the people who are supposedly coming to take them away. They decry the intolerance of the opposition, and build their platform on a justification for their own jihad against them. Sounds like the dangerous lunacy of the loser.
It's going to be fun to watch the democrats heap scorn on the equally far left hillary for her disingenuous and calculated "centrist" and "third way" positions as she tries to repeat bubba's triangulated victories of the 90s.
The leftists sure do paint with a broad brush.
If they could only focus their white hot light of analysis on themselves and their own selfish party for a change, they might get a clue.
But of course, that's asking way too much of such brainwashed partisans.
In the last days ther will be very difficult times. For people will love only themselves and money. they will be boastfu and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control; they will be cruel and have no interest in what is good. They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. they will act as if they are religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. You must stay away from people like that.
They are the kind who work their way into people's homes and win the confidence of vulnerable women who are burdened with the guilt of sin and controlled by many disires. Such women are forever following new teachings, but they never understand the truth. And these teachers fight the truth just as Jannes and Jambers fought against Moses. Their minds are depraved, and their faith counterfeit. But they won't get away with this for long. Someday everyone will recognize what fools they are, just as happened with Jannes and Jambres.
2 Timothy 3:1-9 (NLT)
Message to the Left: Take out the black vote and you would have lost 70% to 30%.
On this I must disagree with Mr. Hurst. If it is not broken now it soon will be because leaders of the party on the left no longer touch the center. They can not even see it.
When one side can see the middle and the other can not there can be no compromise reached.
bump!
excellent arguments in his article.
read later
It is a sign of how things have changed that the left has moved from standing up for the little guy to calling him a stupid, bigoted, religious nut.
They're just finally saying what they have always thought.
Actually, there is plenty of "talent" (i.e., smart people) in the red states. Here's how I know. I lot of them know how to do something most others can't. That is, raise not only enough food for themselves and their families, but the rest of the world as well. I know I can't do that, at least, not right now, even though I'm in a red state. I know I can do without Dior fashions or Gucci shoes or Broadway shows or The West Wing, but I can't do without grains and vegetables and meats. The blue states need the red states more than they think. O'Donnell, like a typical leftie, has it exactly backwards, and is 180 degrees wrong.
If the blue states are so confident of their intellect, talent, and the strength of their arguments, then they shouldn't fear a democratic solution to a problem that would lend itself to a compromise.
I suspect they aren't all that confident of their self-proclaimed intellectual and moral superiority. They front that illusion as just another mask they put on. When I've engaged liberals in serious debates, it lasts about five minutes, they sense they are losing on logic and facts, and inevitably lapse into name-calling, head-shaking, or eye-rolling. Leftists beat their chests and strut like peacocks when proclaiming they are "smart" and "superior", but it's all bluster and show. When called to task, they fold.
It has worked pretty well; I've seen no indication that it's broken.
Me neither. These people have lost an election, that's all. The army is still in it's barracks. Nobody has gone to jail. Nobody has been exiled or assassinated. But because the liberals are now completely out of power, at least for the next two years, they can't deal with it.
They could learn a lesson from the experience of those they denigrate as not being as smart as they are. We lost everything in 1992. The 'Rats ran it all. They had a near filibuster-proof margin in the Senate. Republicans had to pick up the pieces from the Bush 41 debacle, build a record of constructive opposition (using the ammunition Clinton and the 'Rats handed us), and in two years we had the House back for the first time in 40 years, and the Senate. Clinton then had to deal with our agenda (which he skillfully co-opted and claimed as his own and the media gave him credit for, but that's what skilled political manipulators do). If they waste their time whining, they'll lose even more in 2006 (one can only hope they do).
