The Wrong Wing Blues
Wrong on "Compassionate Conservatism."

Wrong on the "Axis of Evil."

Wrong on WMDs.

Wrong on "You're either with us or against us."

Wrong on the "welcome" we'd receive in Iraq.

Wrong on "Bring it on."

Wrong on "Mission Accomplished."

Wrong on "We'll stand down when they stand up."

Wrong on "enemy combatants."

Wrong on Habeus Corpus.

Wrong on Wiretapping.

Wrong on Torture.

Wrong on sectarian violence.

Wrong on Plame.

Wrong on "A growing economy."

Wrong on Deregulation.

Wrong on Tax Cuts to the Rich.

Wrong on ignoring our "enemies."

Wrong on Climate Change.

Wrong on Science in General.

Wrong on the Wall of Separation of Church and State.

Wrong on the 1st Amendment.

Wrong on the "Drug War."

Wrong on Port Security.

Wrong on Immigration.

Wrong on Veterans and PTSD.

Wrong on the Constitution.


Time and again we see that everything they claimed about Iraq, the economy, foreign diplomacy, security issues, and the strategies for "winning the peace" are as ass-backward as it becomes ever more clear that they suffer from a terminal case of cranial rectosis.

In short, we allowed methane breathers to dominate our political landscape for far too long. Deprived of oxygen for too long, these head-up-their-ass Republicans are laying waste to everything that made America potentially great, blithely unaware of the way their stink clings to them like a case of perpetual halitosis.

George W. Bush is to the Republican Party what an engine block is to an Olympic swimmer. As much as they'd like to deny it, Chief 'Fraid-of-horses is the absolute pinnacle of Republican achievement. Bold, decisive, and in so far over his head that even standing on the shoulders of Run-all Rayguns and Papa Shrub he's drowning in the vast seas of his incompetence.

The most astonishing thing of all is that only the Republican Party could look at the failures of George W. Bush and decide to nominate the one possible candidate who might well be even MORE unsuited for the job than the last fellow.

Yes, that's right. Only the Republican Party would be so damned stupid as to nominate John McCain to follow Bush. Presumably their idea is that, given the opportunity, McCain might be able to break anything Bush hasn't already busted.

Ahhh. Republicanism. Where stupidity goes to die.

1. Crickets? Really?
Maybe I should've started another fucking Russert thread. Or whined about how our Democratic Party people aren't getting the job done. What was I thinking, mocking Republicans on Democratic Underground?

2. you gotta give people something to disagree with if you want a lively thread
Your list of wrongs is long enough though. There is much disagreement here about immigration, for example.

Heck, half the time there are DUers who make $70,000 a year who argue that they should get a tax cut since they are not rich.

Then too, I have been involved in an argument about separation of church and state. With me, apparently, on the wrong side.
