When conservatives called us Bush haters, they nailed it!
We really hated Bush. There were lots of reasons to hate him, and we all know them.
But they were all distractions.
There’s only one reason for smart people to have opposed George W. Bush: he advocated conservative ideas, and conservative ideas are crap.
The reason why conservatism is still [...]

Conservatives revere Ronald Reagan for bringing them out of the wilderness.
They’re mistaken, of course. The wilderness is conservatives’ natural abode. They draw a kind of strength from alfalfa and Jesus.

I don’t get it about the Tea Party movement. After eight years of of a super right wing administration destroying jobs and what social safety net there was, “the people” have suddenly decided: “Now that I’m
unemployed, I think I’ll form a grassroots movement to destroy my health care too.” – Joe Bageant.
Go [...]

I’m taking a few giant steps back to regroup and stop being so driven by politics and tragedy and the intrusiveness of what’s coming through the firehose on TV and the net.
Yes, I now this song is “Naima,” not “Giant Steps,” but it felt more like what I need to get [...]

To paraphrase the Gautama Buddha, losing is inevitable; being a loser is optional.
Losing is especially inevitable when you have a crappy candidate like Coakley, a Senate that’s bought and paid for, and a President who thinks triangulation is audacious.
The way to victory is bending the political parties toward our agenda of progressive change.
Mind you, [...]

Wonkette : It’s ‘Contract For America’ Time, Like In The 90s Except NOW.
Remember that Green River record you bought before you figured out they were just another crappy metal band? You have to listen to it again.

The Bush mechanisms for wiretapping, reading your email, and sniffing your pr0n are still in place. So are the secret prisons. And the FEMA camps and black helicopters you kept talking about? They’re still there too. As far as you know. You’re the guys who say there’s nothing wrong with torture.
But now it isn’t Bush [...]

We tried the light side. Come over to the dark side. The music is better. — K Ackermann
No more moderation. No more Mr. or Ms Nice Lefty.
They aren’t southern conservatives, they’re White trash. Don’t say trailer trash. It insults people who live in manufactured housing, who are often really cool people who don’t deserve to [...]

[I]f there is one thing [Ayn] Rand’s life shows, it is the power, and peril, of unjustified self-esteem.- Adam Kirsch
And don’t forget the humor!
Republicans, conservatives, teabaggers, bouncing Limbaughs, bawling Becks, oh-so-serious Foxies, outraged GOP politicians, preachers, anything-phobes, and think tanker conservatives for hire are the funniest clowns in America.
When they [...]

A little late, but screw it.
Republicans will run on their legislative achievements.
Democrats will also run on Republicans’ legislative achievements.
Jim DeMint will be appointed Chairman of the Homeland Security Committee.
Parker Griffith will discover that nobody actually voted for him. We voted against that scumbag Wayne Parker who ran against him.
Sarah Palin will tap Carrie Prejean [...]
