Recently I've seen a lot of articles written by "conservatives" along the lines of "Bush has betrayed us..." "Bush isn't truly conservative" "The Deficit Spending of this President isn't truly conservative" blah blah blah, yak yak yak. They watch their president's approval numbers plummet like the Hindenburg, and they don't want to be on it anymore.
You know that if the public was still with Bush, they'd still be with him, too. If shrubs numbers were above fifty, you wouldn't be reading editorials from Newt or Geo Will critical of the presnit. No sirra, they'd be lockstep with whatever starry-eyed crapola he was schpewing.
And enough of this "we held our nose and voted for Bush, even though he din't have conservative bona-fides..."
Bulllllllsheeit.
They used to say of women, when they mistakenly married abusers, "you made your bed, lie in it." Well, we've become more advanced since them days, but the conservatives don't get to play battered victim here.
I will always keep in mind the fact that they wore purple band-aids to their convention. This is a party that jumped whole-hog on the Bush bandwagon, with complete enthusiasm. This was their chance to smash the "libruls", and they jumped on it with glee.
No sir, Mr. Newt. You don't get a pass on this one, neither does any other Republican politico anywhere. I read an article to the effect that 80 house seats were "up for grabs" in '06.
I say, nope. The whole house is up for grabs. There isn't a safe seat for a Republican in the entire country. They deserve nothing less than to be sent packing en masse, to fade into obscurity and the disrepute they so richly deserve.
The Republican Revolution is over. They lose.
