"What Now" For The Republican Party?

by killfile | May 7, 2007 at 07:59 am | 761 views | 3 comments | 0 recommendations
Bush's approval ratings seem to have flattened out around 28%1. The Democratic Congress is trying to work out some sort of compromise so that Bush will actually pass a funding bill for his war; and all the while investigatory committees are trying to sort out who did what to whom and with what over the whole Justice Department "Attorneygate" scandal. Indeed, between Lewis Libby, Alberto Gonzales, Condi Rice's meetings with "terrorists" last week2 and a war that is rapidly turning into Political Plutonium, it's not much of a shock to see the Republican Party looking hopefully towards the 2008 election - if only to put someone else up as the titular head of this failed spiral of incompetence, nepotism, and outright insanity that Americans used to call the "Grand Old Party."

Reagan would weep.

"failed spiral of incompetence, nepotism, and outright insanity that Americans used to call the "Grand Old Party"  Why is this opinion, certainly not shared by everyone, called 'news'?

Because it's political analysis - though from an admittedly partisan persepctive. 

 Nowpublic needs qualification of content beyond "Opinion."  Opinion is more than a section, particularly when we're talking about original content.

the article->  " pass a funding bill for his war; "

 

If you look back you'll find that congress passed the vote to allow Bush to go to war on our behalf.  So I'm sure what was meant to be said was "Our war that Democrats in congress have now hung around Bushes neck, because they have no testicles and can't follow through with any decision that they make, if it means a possible loss of power "  The hate from this article is seething, every paragraph.

Clinton fired 96 Prossicutors, Bush 12, so what  - that's their job.

 

Meeting with terrorist? Lets talk Nancy Pelosi.

 

  The drivel in this article is useless hate speech, there ought to be a law against it, OH yeh - the Democrats just tried to pass one on that hate speech and bush vetoed it. Ha aha aha ahahahahah
