2. Cannibalism
They threw Buckley's son out, Powell went of his own accord, pretty soon, there won't be a GOP. Now, wouldn't that be nice, er...a pity?

After all, where would all the mentally disturbed go?

3. I don't see why the Freepers would
have such a problem with that. They never really liked John McCain anyway.

9. David Frum BELONGS under the bus.
That mealy-mouthed, blood-soaked fucking war criminal should NEVER be forgiven. I don't care how many times he does the right thing from now on.

FUCK Davind Frum in the eye socket.

10. My favorite quote:
"In these last days before the vote, Republicans need to face some strategic realities. Our resources are limited, and our message is failing."

Your message has been failing for over 50 years, sir.

12. MSNBC's evening line up. Matthews, KO and Rachel
"Second, the political culture of the Democratic Party has changed over the past decade. There's a fierce new anger among many liberal Democrats, a more militant style and an angry intolerance of dissent and criticism. This is the culture of the left-wing blogosphere and MSNBC's evening line-up -- and soon, it will be the culture of important political institutions in Washington".

And this...I certainly hope so.

"Unchecked, this angry new wing of the Democratic Party will seek to stifle opposition by changing the rules of the political game. Some will want to silence conservative talk radio by tightening regulation of the airwaves via the misleadingly named "fairness doctrine"; others may seek to police the activities of right-leaning think tanks by a stricter interpretation of what is tax-deductible and what is not".

14. The problem is the disturbed are the ones with the numbers
and they're unhinged enough to actually want a Phailin/Sammi Jo The Stooge ticket in 2012. The brains in the Republiscum party will have a tough time getting their numbers to follow them, this will be interesting as the willfully ignorant masses attempt to purge the intellectuals and big money people. I'm thinking many of the neocons will ride it out with mouthbreathers to present a completely insane party in 2010-2012, the nutjob masses are more than willing to flex some muscle, so they may continue to be the vehicle for warmongers to have a national voice.

We will have to push back extremely hard because should this new mix take control that may be it for modern civilization.

16. Discounting the possibility that Frum is a precognitive psychic . . .
. . . the only basis he has for saying what will happen two years from now in a full Democratic sweep is what he has observed with the present administration.

I would respond to Frum by pointing out that, although transparency is a prudent measure under even the most ideal circumstances, it does not follow from the fact that his side consists of rotten motherfuckers that our side must as well.
