Alas poor Rorick.......They will never learn. When they have a chance to rule they fuck it up so badly and act like such douchebags that they lose. Republicans only lose when there has been a major scandal or when the market has to correct itself or when they act too much like the left.

That being said, I think they have major inroads in making the american population lazy and stupid as dirt.

9 You laugh, but Democrats in 2008 sound no different to me than Republicans in 2004.  Remember all that talk about "permanent Republican majority"?

The worm turns.  As much as I'm gonna enjoy this election (and hopefully the one in 2012), I've been around long enough to know the Trent Lotts and Denny Hasterts will eventually get control again and mess everything up.

The republicans are not out to destroy the country and provide reparations for the world. They have no desire to create a one world marxist government and, through environmental regulations, take us back to the 15th century. They may contain arrogant douchebags but I'm somewhat heartened by thinking that public school educated non-reading public might realize that people like Pelosi and Obama are out to control them, not out to provide them with a utopia.

 I also think this "racist" crap has about run it's course. They elected Obama because they thought it would heal the wound, but instead he has made it fester and pus, dripping its acrid stench into every tile of the public square. Excising it and its putrid purveyors is obviously the only answer and I hope it happens soon before the hawkers of this consumptive disease sell it to another generation.

The thing that gives me hope is that the next generation of young people has more kids from conservative families than from liberal ones.  Let's face it - the Left has pretty much guaranteed their "power" demise simply by virtue of the fact that more of them either abort their babies and/or have fewer children than those of us on the Right.

They still haven't figured out that you have to keep reproducing in large enough numbers to replenish your stock.  Also, one of their "core" constituencies - blacks - have such high numbers of abortions that they have pretty much guaranteed themselves a permanent minority status.  There are a LOT of black conservatives who have several kids per family that they are raising up to be conservative as well.

And what the Left REALLY doesn't understand is that if they allow a lot of illegal aliens to come here and take up residence, pretty soon their progressive agenda is going to be co-opted into a Hispanic agenda, because there will be more of them in the Democrat party than any other ethnic group - whites included.

A LOT of Hispanics are conservative, which is good for our side as well.  All around, I'd say that the Progressive agenda is going to die a well-deserved death over the next couple of decades.....

Tell that to the roughly 75% who voted for Obama and routinely vote Democrat.

There is a reason the Dems push for amnesty all the time.

26 I'll always remember that Obama lost his shine the minute "the police obviously acted stupidly" crossed his lips. Those were not the words of anyone who is anything more than a racist and it hit the moderate white middle class like a ton of bricks. Add Holder and you have a clear picture of who is running the show and what their goals are.

27 Remember those whiney assed losers with the 'we apologize for America' signs and photos? i sure hope to see more of those come november. accompanied by the head tilt of compassion and the weak assed fist-in-the-air attempt at black power salutes. God those photos made me feel good, and made me hate lefties all the more. Good times.

OK, no one is confirming the Laredo story, except the link at Big Peace to the Examiner says that a source in the Laredo Police Department just confirmed anonymously that they have asked the federal government for help.

If this is true, holy shit, American soil has just been invaded. I can't imagine it is going to end well for anybody.

I'm assuming they seized the ranches because they need them for their drug smuggling route or something?

Anyway, I guess I hope this is false. I assume it is, can't imagine they could maintain a huge news blackout about it. Someone would've leaked more now, right?

I think the left does protest too much. I mean they got health care, blown up baseline domestic spending (and deficits) as far as the eye can see thanks to a useless 'stimulus' plan and grabbed a boat load of power through "Wall Street Reform". They are also making inroads on Don't Ask, Don't Tell, ending our involvement in Iraq and while they didn't get Cap and Trade, they can now move on to EPA regulations which will likely be worse than what Congress would have passed. Oh and don't forget two unimpressive but reliably liberal Supreme Court Justices.

Agreed. However the left is chronically unhappy and miserable.  They can never be satisfied.  They want what they can't and will never have...utopia.

 

32

And, on topic, what I am finding amusing is the people in my area who are suddenly back pedaling over whether they even voted for Obama in the first place. Apparently, despite his sweeping victory here in western Washington, almost no one voted for him. Heh.

I also love all the "O" stickers that have been removed from cars, look liberals, if you remove the bumper sticker, wash the car so that it isn't so obvious. The "O" stickers leave quite the distinctive mark on your bumper.

33 The hispanics don't appear to hate work or dispise the "american dream". They might be lefty voters for a generation but I'm guessing they might not be in the long run.

Yes, but they have the schools to inculcate the young. My son just spent a year in "Advance Placement" American history, with Howard Zinn's book as one of the texts, and his teacher, a Naval Academy grad, very much the obnoxious leftist.

Remember how often Bush rolled the Reid/Pelosi gang for two years?

No.

38 I believe that the "conservative hispanic" myth is based on the original Cuban immigrants to South Florida.  That original group is quite conservative, and a big part of Jeb Bush's support in his gubernatorial races.

The more recent influx from Cuba and South/Latin America is a VERY different story, and we all know the deal with immigration from across our own southern border.

39 They have no idea what hateful people they are. The language and tone they use when they write about breaking backbones and putting heads through windows. Just read what they write! These are not people participating in a democracy trying to win public debates for what they think is best policy. These are people who get a thrill in DEFEATING and having physical and emotion power over others. It's unnerving.

40 a bloody leadership battle between the neocons, theocons, and corporate cons

I think that will happen, if (a big if) we make any gains in Congress.  I wish we had a crop of Republicans who could lead, instead of snipe.  And to echo another commentor, very few of the Republicans running seem like idea people. 

Basically most of them seem to have one advantage this November:  I hate the Democrats more.

How "progressivism" came to be:

With the decline of clerical power in the 18th century, a new

kind of mentor emerged to fill the vacuum and capture the ear

of society. The secular intellectual might be deist, sceptic or

atheist. But he was just as ready as any pontiff or presbyter

to tell mankind how to conduct its affairs. He proclaimed, from

the start, a special devotion to the interests of humanity and an

evangelical duty to advance them by his teaching. He brought

to this self-appointed task a far more radical approach than his

clerical predecessors. He felt himself bound by no corpus of

revealed religion. The collective wisdom of the past, the legacy of

tradition, the prescriptive codes of ancestral experience existed to

be selectively followed or wholly rejected entirely as his own good

sense might decide. For the first time in human history, and with

growing confidence and audacity, men arose to assert that they

could diagnose the ills of society and cure them with their own

unaided intellects: more, that they could devise formulae whereby

not merely the structure of society but the fundamental habits of

human beings could be transformed for the better. Unlike their

sacerdotal predecessors, they were not servants and interpreters

of the gods but substitutes. Their hero was Prometheus, who stole

the celestial fire and brought it to earth.

Paul Johnson,

Intellectuals, 1988.

 

43 Yes, but they have the schools to inculcate the young. My son just spent a year in "Advance Placement" American history, with Howard Zinn's book as one of the texts,

If my kid came home with that Howard Zinn history book I would be parked at the school board the next day.

The goal of politics is to enact a vision. The left wing vision is a boot to the face, forever.

50

It's going to take more than two or three elections to roll this crap back. It will take a generation to try to restore the country to where it SHOULD be, and that's if we are lucky.

Losing a couple of electoral cycles will not fundamentally change the Democratic party.  It will take years in the wilderness, and an objective media, for them to gain some introspection and for some kind of respectability return to their party. They have ruled the Congress for most of the last 78 years (since 1932).  Even when there were periods when the Republicans gained control of the Senate (a couple of times) and the House (in '94), they did not have a strong enough majority (and a President, in '94)  that was willing to roll up the sleeves and undo the entitlements and socialism/statism that is part of the present Federal Government.

 

Face it, people loves them entitlements. The people are going to have to totally rethink the nature of the Government before we can make any real progress.

51 Social cons maybe but not conservative when it comes to fiscal policy or entitlements. Most will vote Dem every time.

Vic, I was at Borders last week and they have a bookshelf devoted to "fall required reading for area schools" and the Zinn book was prominently featured right on the top shelf. Along with a veritable cornucopia of other progressive greatest hits.

I fear my blood pressure is going to be rather high when my son is in high school. I just hope that I'm giving him a good grounding now in conservative ideas and in questioning everything, so that by the time he gets ot high school he won't be swayed.

Of course I have this year's 3rd grade social studies curriculum ahead of me, which could cause me to finally "out" myself fully at the school if it goes as poorly as I fear it is going to. (They'll be learning about how people can change communities--Cesear Chavez is one of the case studies. Also learning about global trade and the effects on other countries.)

57

There is an excelled AP history book called "the American Experience". I couldn't find too much wrong with it.

I moved my son from an english class taught by a vet who had graduated from the citidel-------he said his favorite book was "Native Son" and that's all it took. Can't trust the biographies on some of these people----gotta wait to see what comes out of their mouths

58 Someone mentioned this earlier up thread about hoping that the new crop of young uns has conservative beliefs.  well, I know my kid does.  Bless her little heart.  She's a lesbian but she knows THAT battle is for another day and she is firmly behind the tea party movement.  She has spent countles shours working for Jacob Turk, who is running against Cleaver. Lots of her young friends feel the same way.  There is hope folks.

59 I believe that the "conservative hispanic" myth is based on the original Cuban immigrants to South Florida.

I thought it came from the large percentage of Hispanics with blue & white robed Virgin Mary statues in their landscaping.

60 And I'll be honest with you -- I want them to hurt as much as we did. I want their spirits crushed, their backs broken.

Nice to know.

Don't mind me while I scoot out of the way of your back-breaking machine.

61
It appears to me that Obama and the left have succeeded in implementing large portions of the progressive agenda. And I have little confidence in the GOP's ability to reverse their gains. Republican Party politicians by and large lack the courage and the will and the intellect to do what needs to be done. They are weasels, most of them. Even if they gain control of Congress in November they'll probably blow it, just like they always do. Just watch. Repeal ObamaCare? Yeah, sure. I'll believe it when I see it.

62 Losing this electoral cycle at the state level will have an lasting effect.

Obama carried about 3/4 of the "Hispanic" vote, and when you back the Cuban immigrant community out of that equation and just count Mexicans and Central Americans, you hit a number that is slightly over 90%.

One of the fundamental problems we face is that a conservative politician is something of an oxymoron.

Liberalism is about power - so it makes sense that liberals will be attracted to public office. And for those with a bit more slick then business sense, the corruptocrat route also works well. But why would someone who disdains government power want to really work hard to acquire...to then minimize it?

68 Oh I should also say that part of my fear is because both 3rd grade teachers are very openly liberal--one still had her Obama/Biden sticker on her car at the end of the school year. So, whichever teacher my son gets, I'm pretty much guaranteed a liberal slant.

That's why the Tea Party is so important.  It's a real social movement that has the potential to get people thinking about that "nature of government."

74 Liberals explained: They HATE themselves...seriously...and therefore they hate everybody else.
It's human nature...if you are not happy with yourself it shows in your attitudes towards others. "I'm worthless...and SO ARE YOU!"

75 Appropriate to the weekend on which the movie Salt premieres, Kos and Co. do their best imitation of Veruca Salt.  Despite all the goodies they got from their filibuster-proof Senate and their Progressive majority in the House, they focus instead on those items on their wish list that didn't get delivered.

This is their recipe for snatching defeat from the jaws of victory: rather than use their crushing majorities to crush their enemies' will even further, they did as Leftist movements always do and turned their anger inward against "splitters," "cowards" and "squishes."  Of course, all of this could have been avoided if Obama's and Pelosi's policies actually worked -- which is to say that this disaster for the nutroots was inevitable.

I told my daughter it was a pack of lies and to not believe a word of it. Of course she went back to school and told the teacher. The teacher said they would not be covering that chapter and to let me know that.

Barb, I'm divorced and share custody with my ex. We have talked about home schooling a couple of times. But, we can't figure out how it would work in our situation.

Our solution is to be involved in the classroom as much as possible so that we know what is going on. My ex has changed from being a conservative to a liberal enviro health nut though in the last 2 years, so our priorities are kind of different now.

Not so unusual.  He may be trying to prove to himself that his recent life choices -- for example, divorce and remarriage -- were correct and proper and just the best possible choices he could have made.  He may therefore be trying to reinforce those choices by deciding that all of his old beliefs and values must have been wrong, and that he has to change all of those as well.

I've watched a few of my personal acquaintances go through that process recently.  They tend to leave a trail of grief and anger and heartbreak in their wake.

If my kid came home with that Howard Zinn history book I would be parked at the school board the next day - Vic

I thought about this a long time. And later I found out I was not alone in thinking this.  But I read parts of the book along with my son, and we had a lot of talks about what the book was about (leftist revisionism), rather than "true history".  I've read enough history to realize that there is more than one point of view, and sometimes shades of gray, but I decided to use this to teach my son a different lesson.

I had some success, but he is still young (just 16) and impressionable. Like most kids of his generation, he is going to be exposed to this crap for most of his young adult life, and he has to learn how to handle it, and learn for himself why it is a pack of lies, why it is destructive.  What it means to be an "American", and not just a member of the "lumpenproletariat" to be manipulated by others.  This is  a tough lesson we are all going to have to work to impart on our children if we are to take back our country. At some point, they are going to have to pick up the fight.

  I do know that he ended the school year with a rather low opinion of his AP History teacher.  That, in itself, was a minor victory for reality. And yes, I do have a copy of Johnson's "Modern Times" on my bookshelf.  I am going to get him to read it someday soon, along with a few other history books I've got.

Uphill all the way.

130 Liberals explained: They HATE themselves...seriously...and therefore they hate everybody else.
It's human nature...if you are not happy with yourself it shows in your attitudes towards others. "I'm worthless...and SO ARE YOU!"

Posted by: truth at July 24, 2010 08:54 PM (XSD4n)

Consider an alternative explanation.  Liberals regard themselves highly and they especially are convinced that they are right about how the world ought to work.  In the aftermath of the 2008 elections, they naturally assumed that the economy would be fixed instantly, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan would end immediately, Gitmo would be shut down promptly, and they would be lauded as heroes of the working man and woman for bringing them the bounty of free health care.

What actually happened was pretty much the exact opposite of all that.  And not only are they faced with the fact that their favored policies have failed to fix the economy or end the wars or even shut Gitmo, they are faced with the fact that the voters are crapping all over the wonderful health care gift the Liberals got for them.

So what's a Liberal to do?  He can't admit that the conservatives are right.  And he certainly can't admit that he was and is wrong.  So the only thing left to do is to blame the people he elected for being incompetent and not doing the Liberal agenda right -- because no other explanation makes sense to them.

And keep blaming conservatives for influencing the brainless masses into turning on their agenda.

True leftwing utopianism has never really been tried to them.  Something or someone always gets in the way of their good intentions.

135 Thomas Sowell talks about the rejection of religion and history and the acceptance of the social planner in "Visions of the Annointed". It's interesting to note that Thomas Aquinas partly gave rise to the enlightenment by attempting to prove that man could find truth using his God given reason. That concept had previously been lacking in a complete subjugation to revelation. With the rediscovery of the classical works during the crusades and the advent of european philosophers, the social engineer was born. Those that rejected history and sought responsibility free utopias led to the greatest blood baths in history, Those that accepted history and responsibility created something once great. I've always noted that the "-isms" which dismiss the individual for the sake of the collective believe in man's intrinsic barbarism while those that protect the individual believe in man's intrinsic worth. The barbarian must be controlled by the state and the worthy individual can live in liberty. Interestingly, individual leftists are amoral barbarians, fucktards, murderers, and assholes.

The important thing is that when he says that, he's not talking about "the Chicago Way" of retaliating against a political opponent who's wronged him.  He's talking about standing up to a political bully who's wronged the voters and taxpayers.  That makes his course of action noble.

We have some tough choices to make, and I'd like a guy who can do the right thing in an upbeat, optimistic and unthreatening way.  If not he will probably fail.  Think Newt for example.

I think he demonstrates those qualities better than anyone in the current known crop.  We shall see.

My son is 13 and for most of his 'tween years through now, he has been hit with a wall of liberal crap at school.  We're in SC, so I don't think it's quite as rapid a indoctrination as some other parts of the country though.  But the saving grace for our kids is going to be us.  My son is decidedly conservative, has a view of liberals that rivals Mark Levin and his red flag goes up at school all the time.  He knows bullshit when he hears it.  He's not quite at the stage to "argue" with his teachers, but I'm hoping he'll hone his skills as the years go by.  I firmly believe that if we reach our kids at home with those conservative ideals we hold dear, they will have the armor necessary to repel that crap when it is spewed in the classroom.

Spot on back at you.  The Liberals will cling to "I blame Bush" like my college-graduating daughter clings to the stuffed bunny she got on the day after she was born, and for the same reason: they need the security.  But the rest of the electorate, people whose very identity isn't bound up in the rightness of Liberalism, are already wondering when the vaunted Obama magic is going to kick in.  Using Obama's preferred metaphor, the voters are way past caring who drove the economy into the ditch: they called for a tow truck back in November 2008, and it hasn't shown up yet.

153

Don't be mislead : Mexicans are family oriented and most (first generation) are aligned with the Catholic church or a Pentecostal church, but that does not mean that their politics are conservative, far from it.

The experience of Cuban's political orientation in Florida cannot be compared to Mexicans (or Guatemalans or Colombians) in California. Apples and oranges.

154 I know I'm late to the party, but on the subject of history texts, does anyone remember the Liberal dream movie Good Will Hunting and "you read the wrong books?"

155 For someone whose mom was a whore, Obama has gone pretty far. Whore is incorrect. The term implies that she screwed for money in a quid pro quo transaction. Her promiscuity definitely had a largely non-financial orientation. However, the terms slutty hippy hose-monster would certainly apply.

156 Every generation needs a Jimmy Carter. Its my hope that there are alot of 30 something voters who will go the rest of their lives remembering the Obama years.
Just like my parents never voted democrat after Carter.

157 You know how I know that Kos is a douchebag? In that 2008 post, he took 8 long paragraphs to answer the simple question "What Is Best In Life".

Not true.

Honestly and respectfully challenging a youngish teacher on the facts of a case in Geology class can result in red faces and two weeks in detention for "disrespect" but the reward is sooo worth it.

I got a rep as a rebel.

Still remember "Caroline" patting my back to apologize for her bad treatment of me a year and a half ago, on the bench of a Softball Game.

Remember also how much the "cool kids" noted it.

161 Why is Daily Kos so concered about voting? He and his ilk do not even want two parties in govt, or voting for that matter.  It is not progressive thinking.  The all want a Socialist gov. with Comrad Hussein Ohbumer in charge for life.

162 ...and that idiot is an ex-army slacker.  I just want the men he was under the comand of, to tell us what a charlie foxtrot he was/is.  The stories should be funny as hell.

163 Still, at some point, the Republicans are going to have to layout a more positive agenda of what they will do if given another chance.

Having Steele at the helm doesn't inspire a lot of confidence.

166

Just watched Franken on youtube.  These bastards are out of control. So the narrative now is reform the rules becuase of the republicans. This is tyranny.  Al Franken is in the senate because 341 ex cons put him over the top. 

167 Listen up. If the Dems do hold on, then it will be nasty, but 2012 will be guanranteed...plus we can kick out some of the RINOs. Personally, I want a VAT. Then the GOP can cut other taxes and keep the VAT.

168 The RNC and the GOP leadership better get their act together.  Steele needs to go and Paul Ryan and Jim Demint need to move into leadrship roles. 

169 The VAT is a nasty tax that encumbers industry and empowers the liberal bureaucrats. Taxes will never be reduced with a VAT in place.  It will never happen.  

170

I can't let myself get hopeful about the elections.  Remember, these are Democrats we're up against, the people who invented machine politics and patronage and electoral fraud.  They will lie, cheat, intimidate, assault and kill if they think they need to in order to keep their filthy hands on the levers.

It's easy enough to laugh at wannabe Field Marshals like Kos and fumble mouthed buffoons like the Metrosexual Mugabe Obama, but they're not going to sit idly and just let a clean election happen.  Icepicks in tires will be the least of it.

And we have to be all over that like a wet t-shirt.

If you have any spare time, get involved with local elections. Don't be pushy, just make sure it's fair. Volunteer to help, don't make a big presence of yourself, just keep your ears open.

Also, if you can do things like, when they have their local Craigslist "help elect 5 billion commies" ads, and they have orientation meetings, go find out what's going on there. Maybe just listen real attentively and say you may not have enough time but you'll get back to them.

If it turns out to be the Organization Formerly Known As ACORN, they have an awful habit of running their mouths about their plans, maybe something you can have the proper authorities follow up on.

Speaking of proper authorities, it would be a good time to find out who they are and start pestering them about cases we've already heard about that nothing has been done about, and get ready to pester them about new cases.

You're dead on, they WILL cheat, they always do, we just need to make them accountable.

175 Spent the last 2 evenings arguing with one of my favorite "progressives" (quotes because he won't admit his affiliation and genuinely does have some heresies that would cut him out of that herd).

Per what he had to say on what went down in a local conference, they be hugely pissed at the Dali - he has not delivered.

I figure he's losing 20% of his base, all the independents and 90% of the white voters (not because we started the race war, but we will god-damned end it - as we've done before - Google 1865).

Ever notice why Detroit is in the can but all the car compinees move down south for new car plants.  Everyone from Toyota to BMW.

True, but Bush actually had a clue when it came to the game. Obama? The man falls apart everytime he's confronted and criticized. If the man has to put up with a Speaker Bohner and/or a Senate Majority Leader McConnell, he will be an even worse crybaby than the last two years.

183 You see there is only one constant. One universal. It is the only real truth. Causality. Action, reaction. Cause and effect.

Watch the nick, watch the nick!

PS for trivia I started using the nickname "Merovign" on FidoNet and then Usenet in about 1990-1991 - LONG before the Matrix. I had a few others but they were often rejected by newer systems (short / unusual characters) so this one "stuck."

It doesn't have any deep meaning, I just use it for consistency.

Merovign, I really like Bourbon.  So does an old friend.  One of our favorite things is to get together and drink Bourbon.  When we want to demonstrate how literate and witty we are (which is all the time) I refer to the golden nectar as Carolingian, he calls it Merovingian.

Yep, a couple of well lubiricated and well read bastards we are, you bet.
