9. Hell, Ike would be considered a radical pinko
by the open-air lunatic asylum that is now the Repig party. They'd hound him out of public life and probably try to lock him up.

3. Could you name a single Republican that is not corrupt?
:shrug: I believe the more corrupt one is the higher honor gets placed upon them by Republicans..

4. Heh, I posted on Facebook About this yesterday
When Newt is being attacked from the right, we've seriously got a problem. There should be some sort of cliff there, where, if you're to the fiscal right of Newt Gingrich, that you can't be taken seriously.

7. Reality is exactly backwards..
If you're to the left of Newt you can't be taken seriously in the DC Village.

10. Not yet. Not complete until we look just like Chile during Pinochet's rule. Except
we would have English as our official language.

8. Our country has wrought people who don't spell-check their titles.
Not to nit-pick, but it does detract from your point, given its prominence.

11. LOL. Not laughing at the poster with a spelling error, since I make
tons of typos myself, but laughing because the poster pointing it out was clever and funny. :)

12. What is more frightening is that they consider him to be some sort of "Intellectual"
And it may be true that he's actually too smart for the average Republican.

15. I think the Rethug party of TV and radio land
isn't always the rethug party of its voters. I think their are a lot of moderate republicans that feel they have no party right now.
