Rep. Tom Davis (R-VA), who is retiring this year, tells the Washington Post: “You have a very unhappy electorate, which is no surprise, with oil at $108 a barrel, stocks down a few thousand points, a war in Iraq with no end in sight and a president who is still very, very unpopular. He’s just killed the Republican brand.”

************************************************************

Gee, Davis — YA THINK?!?!?

And guys like you helped him do it, Davis, because you could always have at least tried to do something to rein him in and you chose not to — so you can’t just blame Bush. You also have to blame yourselves.

Yeah, but he didn’t do it all by himself. Bush had a LOT of help.

You have to be a corporation or brain dead to like either party.

The Republican “brand” and thousands upon thousands of Iraqis. Which is the greater tragedy Rep. Davis? Your “brand” or untold human suffering?

I have a suggestion that could improve the Republican brand image. Impeach Bush/Cheney. If you can’t do that, you’re just as responsible for trashing yourselves, and our country.

The Republican party has become more like a cult than a political party.
Their playbook resembles something out of the old Soviet Union or one of the old Fascist parties with it’s win at all costs cult of personality, media control and propaganda, inability to admit mistakes,appointments relying on party loyalty rather than competence, condoning of torture, glorification of war and accusing political opponents of being traitors, unpatriotic or enemies of the state.

Maybe if Tom Davis had not been a Bush rubber stamp for the last 7 years he wouldn’t be saying these things today about the Republican brand. There often are unintended consequences when people don’t do their own thinking and simply follow along. Tom Davis, you got what you bargined for, like it on not. You share a great deal of responsibility for not speaking up during these last 7 years. Yes, you got what you deserved. Now live with it.

“He’s just killed the Republican brand.”

Sorry, Mr. Davis, but the Republicans did that. You could have stopped him a long time ago, but you let him do whatever he wanted with your total support. Blame yourselves, too.

The GOP cannot place all the blame on Bush.
They’ve created this monster.
And he did not singlehandedly destroy the Republican party.
He got plenty of help from Drunken Fool Dick Cheney, Jack Abramoff, Denny Hastert, Tom Foley, Larry Craig, Duke Cunningham, Heckuva job Brownie, Bob Ney, Karl Rove, Lyin’ Scooter Libby and a host of other buffoons, perverts, charlatans, liars, thieves, scam-artists and nut cases too numerous to list.

“Bush has killed the Republican” interesting moment of honesty from a Republican.
But what’s behind that statement, how did he kill it?
His actions are doing unbelievable damage to the American economy.
He and his people are incredibly dishonest they lie, spin, cherry-pick and distort every time they open their mouths. their lies will eventually cost the taxpayers trillions of dollars and have brought death and misery to millions.
He and the people around him have also shown a mind-boggling level of incompetency.

I think the answer may be IOKIYAR.

BTW, Obama’s church minister today said that the former pastor preached 300,000 minutes on the record in 20 years, and the media took three 30-second sound bites to assassinate him and the church.
