		<description>&#039;Well, Newt,

Bush policies and failures are just like incestuous child abuse occuring in a dysfunctional, alcoholic, republican family.  That is something we just don`t talk about.  

The neo-Con pattern of hysterical denial and dysfunction is hilarious.
To paraphrase Anne Wilson Schaeff - today`s neo-Cons are like
a self divinizing Julius Ceaser and Cleopatra.

Republican - neo-con Fooliush Wankers and CLIARPATRA`S, the kinds and queens of De NIAL.

The self righteous, dysfunctional wankers get more ridiculous every day.

May I end by citing a &quot;Perfect Prayer for Perfect People&quot; penned by Kent Doering and Frauke v. Buelow in Munich for people such as
U.S. neo-cons.

&quot;The Perfect Prayer for Perfect People&quot;

&quot;Oh Almighty, do accept,
we`re so perfect and adept.
henceforth let our names be praised,
otherwise all hell be raised.&quot;

After saying that together, program neo-cons can gather around holding hands, raising them up and down to_
&quot;So lie on your back.  It squirts if you jerk it.  So jerk it, you`re worth it.&quot;

Wonder what France&#039;s unemployment rate will be like when Sarkozy&#039;s approval ratings are at 28%.</description>

		<description>What Newt and the other conservative pundits either don&#039;t understand or refuse to acknowledge is that the GOP has enabled Bush to do all the damage he&#039;s done to our country!  They have provided political cover, made excuses, swift boated his critics and voted in his favor time and time again.

America is seething with anger and is PUNISHING the Republican party for being accessories to the criminal presidency of Bush/Cheney.</description>

		<description>So, If the repub&#039;s do not talk about those mentioned by Newty, They begin to lie about domestic issues. Try to get re-elected, Turn around, and crap all over the American public again!

It is going to be very sad if we cannot get a veto proof congress if they elect one of the white 10!</description>

		<description>I have an idea for the final Republican debate:

All the Republican candidates stand smiling, fawning and motionless at their podiums while Peggy Noonan reads aloud from one of her beautiful soliloquys about Ronald Reagan.

Cameras pan to each smiling candidate, occasional tears are seen.

Slow fade out.

Scary, but could they possibly offer anything more?</description>

		<description>this way conservatives return to their recent ways. talk about what you&#039;re &lt;em&gt;for&lt;/em&gt; (fiscal responsibility, smaller gov&#039;t, strong national security), talk even louder about what you&#039;re &lt;em&gt;against&lt;/em&gt; (abortion, gay marriage, flag burning, welfare)...

...and only deliver on the latter. they&#039;ve become the party that&#039;s defined not by what they&#039;re &lt;em&gt;for&lt;/em&gt;, but what they&#039;re &lt;em&gt;against&lt;/em&gt;.

but the larger point here, and something we should all realize, is that bush has been a godsend for progressives. i absolutely loathed the man until about 2004, then i realized, no, this could be a good thing -- he really knows no boundaries. he will screw things up so badly for republicans it will take them years to recover. of course i had to balance that against my fear that he was screwing things so badly it will take the entire country decades to recover, but i knew things had to get worse before they could get better. so don&#039;t get me wrong, i still desire a rapid end to this administration!

but the damage to the conservative brand is already done. and here you have it: a respected conservative like newt (yes, it boggles the mind) basically saying &quot;all the problems that are foremost on most americans&#039; minds, we can&#039;t even talk about.&quot;

conservatives embraced the holy rollers, the chickens have come home to roost, and now all they&#039;ve got left to talk about are hot button issues that only appeal to [perhaps less than] a third of the electorate (just witness last week&#039;s debate).

not exactly a winning formula.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>this way conservatives return to their recent ways. talk about what you&#8217;re <em>for</em> (fiscal responsibility, smaller gov&#8217;t, strong national security), talk even louder about what you&#8217;re <em>against</em> (abortion, gay marriage, flag burning, welfare)&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;and only deliver on the latter. they&#8217;ve become the party that&#8217;s defined not by what they&#8217;re <em>for</em>, but what they&#8217;re <em>against</em>.</p>
<p>but the larger point here, and something we should all realize, is that bush has been a godsend for progressives. i absolutely loathed the man until about 2004, then i realized, no, this could be a good thing &#8212; he really knows no boundaries. he will screw things up so badly for republicans it will take them years to recover. of course i had to balance that against my fear that he was screwing things so badly it will take the entire country decades to recover, but i knew things had to get worse before they could get better. so don&#8217;t get me wrong, i still desire a rapid end to this administration!</p>
<p>but the damage to the conservative brand is already done. and here you have it: a respected conservative like newt (yes, it boggles the mind) basically saying &#8220;all the problems that are foremost on most americans&#8217; minds, we can&#8217;t even talk about.&#8221;</p>
<p>conservatives embraced the holy rollers, the chickens have come home to roost, and now all they&#8217;ve got left to talk about are hot button issues that only appeal to [perhaps less than] a third of the electorate (just witness last week&#8217;s debate).</p>
<p>not exactly a winning formula.<a href="javascript:void(0)" title=""  onmouseover="window.status=''; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" onclick="ddrc_popup('http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/plugins/dd-report-comments/report.php?c=3789795', 400, 400)"></a></p>

		<description>I guess Greensburg, KS could be added to the Hush-hush list. If the equipment wasn&#039;t deployed in Iraq, they would have it there to help rescue-recovery efforts.</description>

		<description>#82 -  I couldn&#039;t agree more with your statement. It means nothing to me when candidtates say they are people of faith. So what, they behave just as badly as anyone else, maybe more so because they feel it excuses everything they do. Just consider the bush administration as an example.</description>

		<description>Problem?  Performance for the past six years of failed policy and the current state of the nation of which they are responsible.

Solution?  A broom, a bit of sweeping, and an unsuspecting rug to toss the debris under.</description>

		<description>The one topic above all I wish /all/ candidates, no matter what party, would avoid is &quot;faith.&quot; 

(The following is how I feel, not necessarily, a la Rush Lim-burger &quot;the way things ought to be&quot; ... unlike most &#039;cons I don&#039;t ineluctably feel the entire world MUST change to make /me/ more comfortable)

Faith. I hate it when GWB talks about it ... I hated it when Kerry felt compelled to mention it. I. Just. Don&#039;t. Care. Keep your bleeping &quot;faith&quot; to yourself. It should remain a personal thing, in my opinion, and I am sick of it being spread all over ALL discussions like some glowing magic peanut butter -- it feels like it only pops up for political reasons, to placate worried old folks in Iowa who believe a person&#039;s ability to lead is somehow connected with whether or not s/he is a good churchgoin&#039; Chrusch&#039;n. Ptui, I say. Treat me like an adult.</description>
