OMG these guys are soooooo short-sighted and ignorant to boot. Depressing.
You know- the more I see the more I’m convinced the neo-cons are nuts. This part of the world cannot deal with democracy. The reasons are myriad.
It seems Mubarack and Qadaffi knew that.
Someone posted a link yesterday to Sultan Knish’s very recent article about the Republican Party. It was the best I’ve ever read. In fact I was going to post it on FR today, but I can’t find it. Here’s his blog, if you can find it, could you let me know? He describes EXACTLY what is wrong with the R party. And it’s deep.

Bingo! You are so right..... And the sooner they lose influence over conservative politicians and policy makers, the better.
I use to think that they served a purpose in protecting our alley Israel’s national security, but now, even Israel is siding with Egyptian military to crush the MB!! It makes no sense!!
Aha, I found it, the whole article is on FR, I meant to ping you to the article.

A Schizophrenic Elephant
The Republican Party’s biggest problem is mental illness. The big elephant party is suffering from a severe case of split personality disorder. It’s an old problem that has only gotten worse over the years.
It can be hard to remember sometimes while swimming in the media bubble that depicts the
Republican Party as some offshoot of the John Birch Society, the KKK and the Confederacy, that it’s the exact opposite. All of the organizations mentioned got their start opposing the Republican Party. The Republican Party might have been considered radical before the Civil War, but by the time it was over, it had become the ultimate big government party. It was the oversized elephant tying together big government and big industry.
