Keith and Richard Wolffe discuss how the ramping up of the hate and fearmongering at the Klu Klux Klan rallies Tea Parties and Town Halls attended by the ignorant, disinformed, racist Brown Shirts Republican base have done more harm than good for the Republican party and that this could very well lead them into splitting in two.

ETA I'm loving Fixed News' new graphics!

3. Independent Party coming - then the GOP will hijack it back after it forms

they don't have anything to offer so they'll take over the nests that other people have built. Like the DoDo Bird does. Consider it the new GOP mascot.

5. Yes, but I'm betting all this talk about "centrists" in the media lately is an
attempt to repeat Raygun's "Big Tent" bullshit. It will give the ruling elite the numbers they need to maintain the status quo. They'll toss out a few crumbs - sort of like they did in the Clinton years to appease the masses.

Then again, I'm a cynic....

6. I have been so sick of the old saying which is
still being said:

"The country is Center Right"


Bullshit!!


The country is Center Left!!

I dont understand why the media lets people get away with saying that and they will even say it at times. Drives me crazy.

9. nit-pick alert...
They need to have a proof-reader check the chyron or whatever the text-crawl thingy is at the bottom of the screen.

It's 'guards', not gaurds...:blush:

Just for shitzngiggles, I checked the online dicitonary to see if 'gaurd' was a word...
it suggested I recheck my spelling and gave me a whole list of other words that I 'might have meant'.

In other words...NOPE. :yoiks:

10. Notice the map that shows where the Tea Party Xpress goes...
It's rural west, heartland and deep south. Mostly towns with populations around 10-20,000 people. We're talking Sarah Palin country, her "real America". These are the counties that voted more Republican in 2008 than ever before. This is not a majority building operation. I just hope this movement doesn't spawn some crazy violent kooks. Only takes a few to cause a lot of damage.
