What a sad day for Free Republic, when the supporters of John McCain and registering illegal immigrants so they can stay here and work, are no longer considered mainstream Conservatives.
I’ve always wondered what Elmer Gantry and other well know hucksters from the past were all about. Now I know. When you’re on their level you can endorse a lot of people, and then claim you did or didn’t really get them elected depending on the general consensus of real Conservatives.
For instance, you could endorse John McCain, help get him elected and then state that you really weren’t the reason he got re-elected. You could also endorse others and claim that in those instances, you really were the person who go them elected. Then later if anyone complained, you could flip and say, well, you know, I didn’t really get them elected. At first I thought I did, and then it became real clear to me that I didn’t.
I’ve never aspired to be, or to support someone who was the Jean Dixon (famous seer from the sixties) of political endorsements. That’s a person who doesn’t make literally hundreds of predictions for the future and then claim special status because one of them did come true. It’s a person who endorses a number of candidates, and then claims the endorsements only helped the ones who won that were conservative.
The ones that didn’t win, the ones that were poor examples of Conservatism... let’s not talk about that. Move along. Move along... books to sell, appearances to make. Caution: Potential sucker crossing just ahead...
She’s the head of the Tea Party. She wasn’t elected, appointed, or gifted with any Tea Party position whatsoever, but don’t let that slow you down. Shhhhh, she’s a queen of something. She’s the champion of the mouth, of the mouth, for the mouth, and by the mouth, screeching her way into the history books, one sucker at a time.
Go, go, go..., gosh this feels good. Come on Jean, tell us another story... Tell us about how you saved a state, or conquered an oil company, or transformed a political badger into a lamb, so you could return it to Washington. Oh please...
Sigh, bliss, oh the colors, so many colors... Oooooooooooooooo...
