Ding Dong, the Pugs are Dead! Which Old Pugs? The Grand Old Pugs!

One thing that I am really, really happy about about the outcome of this election is that the Republican Party of recent years -- well, he party of most of my adult lifetime, actually -- the race-baiting, imperialist, anti-modern, the party of capital and christ and letting our public space atrophy -- is all but dead and gone. I really truly didn't originally believe that Obama could be the final instrument to do that party in. That was why I was for Hillary for early on, in fact. I thought that she would pummel them at every turn. But he surprised me and did really, really well.

We will eventually see a "new" republican party. Wouldn't be surprised if the formed their own version of the DLC to try to retake the sensible center. But they are a LONG way from being able to do that anytime soon. Meanwhile, we dems get to make hay while the repugnants wander in the wilderness trying to find a new voice and vision.

Politics just got fun again.

I posted about this twice already since early October. So I won't repeat myself in detail. But just to remind you of my prescient wisdom -- ha ha :-)

1. At 3:00PM EST, searchers announced they had located the Republican Party, where it came to rest

in a high snowbound mountain pass of Colorado's Rocky Mountains...


Although foul play was abundantly evident, all indications from the site was that the deceased had done himself in through recklessness and malice. Some reports even mention the possibility-and we do not believe this to be a typo-of cannibalism.
