Just before President Obama was inaugurated, hate radio host Rush Limbaugh declared, “I hope he fails.” Though some Republicans have distanced themselves from Limbaugh’s sentiment, conservatives at CPAC have fully embraced it.
In an interview with ThinkProgress today, radio host Mark Levin and former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA) added their voices to the chorus of conservatives hoping for Obama’s failure:
TP: What do you think about what Rush said about, I mean, do you hope, should we hope that President Obama fails?
LEVIN: Yes.
TP: Yes?
SANTORUM: If…absolutely we hope that his policies fail.
“I believe his policies will fail, I don’t know, but I hope they fail,” added Santorum. Watch it:
On his radio show yesterday, Limbaugh announced that its is a “dirty little secret” that “every Republican in this country wants Obama to fail, but none of them have the guts to say so.” “I am willing to say it,” added Limbaugh.
At CPAC at least, more and more conservatives are “willing to say it.” Appropriately, Limbaugh will be the closing speaker at the conference tonight.
Transcript:
THINK PROGRESS: What do you think about what Rush said about, I mean, do you hope? Should we hope that President Obama fails?LEVIN: Yes.
TP: Yes?
SANTORUM: If…absolutely we hope that his policies fail.
TP: Ok.
SANTORUM: Because, well, we, I believe his policies will fail, I don’t know, but I hope they fail, I don’t know. But I believe they will fail.
How long before the first troll is scheduled to interpret for us what they really meant?

February 28th, 2009 at 11:39 amWell of course the reich wing of the American Taliban hopes President Obama’s policies fail, because it will remind them how wrong they were and how their policies hurt America/Americans under their Fuhrer, George Bush!

They both looked a bit ‘abashed’ ? uneasy- embarrassed?
Go ahead, speak out- you all sound like the little kid on the playground who hopes I fall off the swing set, ’cause, ’cause, they din’t gimme your last piece of candy.

Anyone ever see Star Trek?
Anyone ever see members of the crew hope Kirk failed?

February 28th, 2009 at 11:44 amHOW FROTHY!
IF SANTORUM KNOWS ANYTHING….IT’S FAILURE.
February 28th, 2009 at 11:44 amSen. Susan Collins of Maine wholeheartedly supported Ricky Santorum in the 2006 race:

Nice.
February 28th, 2009 at 11:48 amI will never forget, as long as I live, the awful feeling I got when George W. Bush took office illegally in 2001. Never. Ever.
But never did I ever wish he would fail. On the contrary, I wished fervently that the term would pass as uneventfully as possible, like his dad’s did–sort of. Except for Gulf War I. And the recession. And the CIA spook links. And Dick Cheney as SecDef.
Never mind.
February 28th, 2009 at 11:48 amI’d be interested in pulling the thread on what they mean by ‘hoping he fails’. What do they think success would look like? The stimulus works, and the economy begins to recover? And that’s what they are hoping doesn’t happen? It’s one thing to say “I know this stimulus package will fail to meet it’s objectives”, but another thing entirely, to say you hope it won’t meet it’s objectives. That puts you in asshole territory, because it implies you would rather throw the country under the bus rather than see your worldview invalidated.
February 28th, 2009 at 11:49 amPerhaps that is the heart and soul of conservatism.
If Obama succeeds, that will be a double whammy to the republicans; the democrats will succeed where they failed miserably, and a black man will succeed where a bunch of butt-kissing, corrupt, blithering white yes-men will have been a complete catastrophe.
It’s the republican’s only hope and their solemn credo: Don’t create a better product, create a mediocre, half-@ssed product and block progress on better products. If a better product does somehow get through, hope it fails and start rumors to discredit its achievements. Republicans cannot operate on a level playing field.
It’s the republican way; like bush, they are underachievers who want to appear superior without all the hassle of actually working fairly for it.
February 28th, 2009 at 11:49 amSantorum the Saddlebacker!

February 28th, 2009 at 11:50 amA reminder, we still can’t fix stupid…Blessings
February 28th, 2009 at 11:50 amToo bad someone doesn’t point out the Budget wouldn’t have to be so big if infrastructure, FDA, EPA hadn’t been underfunded for 8 years and now it is catch up, if we can. Wouldn’t you like to try and point out to these loons facts and see what they would say ? Like the deficit bush has left which has to be paid for in the next few years along with the Stimulus ?
February 28th, 2009 at 11:51 amI doubt many will backpedal initially, because Limbaugh gives them cover. Thinking they answer to him rather than their constituents will be their undoing.
Look at the poll numbers. Obama was up among even Republicans in Kos’s latest tracking poll. If the MSM reports every time a Republican “hopes Obama fails,” I have a feeling it won’t resonate too well.
February 28th, 2009 at 11:51 amRicky “man on dog” Santorum. Need I say more.
February 28th, 2009 at 11:52 am“I believe his policies will fail, I don’t know, but I hope they fail,” added Santorum.
What ever happened to conservative certitude? For the past eight years, they were absolutely sure about EVERYTHING. Now that it’s all imploded, they fall back on, well we hope his policies fail. By saying they hope he fails, they are announcing they don’t know anything.
It’s going to be awfully hard to regain that certitude, now that we have confirmation that they’re ignorant.
February 28th, 2009 at 11:53 amhanshiro, you’ve hit a nail on the head.
The Republicans and their base–the richest of the rich, the CEO class–had a business plan. It was: To loot the Treasury with no-bid contracts, endless war, fearmongering, a new McCarthyism, etc.
The business plan had a shelf life. It was never meant to be permanent; most criminal activities are not sustainable.
And now their party is over, and we’re footing the bill. As much as they’re whining right now, they have proven one thing: Crime DOES pay.
February 28th, 2009 at 11:53 amRepublicans, conservatives have one thing in common if you know them, it is fear that the big bad boogy man is coming to get them and only a strong dad will save them.
February 28th, 2009 at 11:53 amWell there have been boogymen from day one and you need to save yourself not depend on someone else. They are such cowards.
I never wished W Bush would fail but he did by doing all the things that president Obama is trying to do differently. Go figure. Wingnuts just are no that smart. Face it.
February 28th, 2009 at 11:54 am8. Max-1 Says: Anyone ever see Star Trek? Anyone ever see members of the crew hope Kirk failed?
Only once, off the top ‘o me head, and that was the episode with Ben Finney, where Kirk was framed for murder.
My geek side emerges…
February 28th, 2009 at 11:55 am…and of course, Ben Finney was out of his fcuking mind…
February 28th, 2009 at 11:59 amI’m not sure I understand how this is different from… well, anybody else in the world. We all hope our opposition fails. That’s what it means to oppose them. We all do that.
Don’t fault Santorum for wanting Obama’s policies to fail. Fault him for having bad policies himself.
February 28th, 2009 at 11:59 amAT&T and Google are only big corporate sponsors for CPAC.
http://www.cpac.org/sponsors.html
I find this ironic as both groups are in a position to spy on people. Recall how revolutionary protesters at the RNC meeting were treated? Police in riot gear and canes.
CPAC speakers inciting revolution eat cake. Welcome to America, the land of the bizarre.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:01 pmOptimize a system for one part, the whole is suboptimized.
Optimize a company for CEO executive pay, the firm is suboptimized.
Optimize a country for a political party, the whole is suboptimized.
America has abysmal leadership in corporate board rooms and our hallowed halls of government.
60-80% of people want business or the government to cover more health care. This isn’t new, it was that way for years under George W. Bush. Yet the current political will stands to be watered down by K Street lobbyists. A pox on the house of Santorum and all tribal leaders.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:05 pmthis is actually good for us… the more these idiotic Repugs and right-wingers spew out this “we want him to fail” message the worse off they will be politically, I think.. they seem to not be thinking about this too much.. but well, these guys have never been known to be very keen thinkers now, have they?? what a bunch of sore losers, I swear…
February 28th, 2009 at 12:05 pmI hope they continue down this path of anti-Obamaism because it is driving thinking people away from the GOOP in droves.
I was out getting petition sigs last night (off-year judges election here in PA) and carried along voter regs for new/change registrations. Normally, I only canvas Dem voters, but with judges, we need to get both Dem and Rep signatures to get on the ballot.
Each time I went to a GOPer door and they were willing to sign (mind you, this is just to get on the ballot, not a vote) I also asked if they needed to make any changes to their current registration and used address, phone# and party affiliation as examples.
By just visiting around 30 household, both D’s and R’s, I reregistered two R’s to Independents. I’ll take it, because it’s a first step and is the strongest indication that R’s are not happy with their party.
PEACE
February 28th, 2009 at 12:06 pmSocialism has never worked? Socialize the losses, privatize the profits seems to be doing just fine. It started under George W./Hank Paulson and is gaining steam.
The question is how long the losses will go on?
February 28th, 2009 at 12:08 pmI thought it was unpatriotic to criticize the president during wartime. At least that’s what these CPackers said for the last eight years.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:08 pmIf Obama’s policies fail, will we all be speaking Islamism?
February 28th, 2009 at 12:09 pmThe Architect Says: Socialism has never worked.
So, you don’t support the troops then? The US military is socialized. Deal with it…
February 28th, 2009 at 12:09 pmSocialism has never worked

Santorum has earned a free ticket on the ship soon leaving for Retard Planet.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:11 pm@27 the architect And we also know now that capitalism does not work. What are you a communist? What’s else is left?
Actually, I live in Europe for the nonce, and I think socialism does work. Its a matter of degrees.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:11 pmAdd that foamy mixture of semen and fecal matter to the list of traitors!
February 28th, 2009 at 12:11 pmI don’t know anyone who “hoped for failure” in Iraq. That is stupid.
You hope for the failure of an opponent in a zero sum game — whatever they fail to achieve falls to you.
That’s not the case here. Electorally speaking, yes. But we’re talking about policies failing, not electoral campaigns. Our nation faces an economic crisis, thought by most experts to be unprecedented in the last sixty years. Obama is the man whose policies will be employed to try to stem and even reverse the damage. If he fails, WE ALL FAIL AS A NATION.
That is what Republicans are publicly hoping for and trying to achieve. The failure of the nation. Way to go, guys.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:12 pmThe Architect Says: Really? So, 47-67% of the people oppose Obamas policies?
No. Just you and your ignorant redneck friends.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:13 pmwho let the mouth breathing asshat with no authority in? oh yeah. the other asshats with no authority.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:13 pmAt least he is honest about his willingness to push the whole country under the bus for political gain.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:13 pmThe Architect Says:
Wulf Says:
These fringe lefties have short term memory when it comes to things like hoping for failure in Iraq. That was ok, though.
Liar. us fringe lefties wanted our troops out of Iraq because we didn’t want them to die for your fringe fascist lies. And it’s instructive that your link to the halfwit hayseed song on YouTube has as its related videos naked brittany spears clips….wanker.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:13 pmMath’s not one of your stronger subjects, is it?
February 28th, 2009 at 12:13 pmThe Architect Says:
60-80% of people want business or the government to cover more health care.
Really? So, 47-67% of the people oppose Obamas policies?
First of all, for an architect, you’re not so with numbers. it would be 40 to 20%…idiot. But in responding to your piyash Jindal like point, the last president to have 667% of the people oppose his policies was, uhhhh bush?
February 28th, 2009 at 12:16 pmThis statement has the same “ring of truth” as Michael Steele’s pronouncement that
February 28th, 2009 at 12:17 pm“not in the history of mankind has government ever created a job”.
Being a republican must be a sorry existence these days.
Watching the CPAC conference is like watching a display at Madame Toussards House of Wax.
Old white men pontificating about socialism. That worked so well for them during the campaign against Obama.
Perhaps that failed strategy might work now.
What’s that satirical definition of insanity again?
It’s equally sad that the most articulate expostulator of the republican philosophy is a sweet faced 13-year old boy.
I, for one, am glad that we finally have an unabashedly progressive voice in the White House.
Instead of redistributing wealth upwards, it’s being spread downwards.
Thirty years of economic inequality is coming to an end.
Tear down this MYTH————>Ronald Reagan
February 28th, 2009 at 12:18 pmOh how its wonderful that the gop has so embraced limbaugh. The hater of americans near and far, a traitor to his own country that he wishes to see fall to its knees. The same traitor who screamed not supporting the war in Iraq as un-american and hateful toward the troops. So what if americans are suffering, its their own fault, right? This once great nation is being dragged down by the very people who claim to be its’ true representatives. We should all burn a flag in limbaughs’ honor, take to the streets and show your support!!! The name Benedict Arnold does ring a bell, but what the hell, viva la limbaugh!!!! Let hate rule america once again, let the our country fall to the waste-side, after all we have no shame nor dignity. And all while we make a few million to pad our wallets as we trample upon the backs of our own.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:18 pm“Nobody said this”?
So if I could find a single person who said this, your tissue-paper argument falls to pieces, right?
You really think overheated hyperbole is the way to go?
Ah, well, I guess if you’ve got nothing else…
February 28th, 2009 at 12:19 pmI was always against the invasion of Iraq. I am a Vietnam Veteran and I have never wished the military would fail. Being against a careless, unnecessary, immoral invasion is not wishing it would fail, it is facing realiity. Wishing the new predident failure after the policies of the CPAC retards over the past twelve years of trying them, is stupidity. When you dig yourself into a hole, stop digging. The conservative ways did not work. They failed. We elected someone who promised to do something different. Live with it, retards.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:20 pmThe Architect Says: Nobody said this during the heighth of the war. How come? Oh, Bush is an (R). My bad.
Failure in Iraq would not have destroyed the US. Not the same thing. And none of us wanted failure – we wanted NO WAR.
By the way, the word is height.

Do you dispute its central truth?
February 28th, 2009 at 12:20 pmHey architect, don’t run away yet. tell us about that skank in your you tube song. Are you the doofus on guitar? Or is the singer your mom and the guitar is this week’s “uncle”?
February 28th, 2009 at 12:21 pmTo those of us who watched bush take a surplus in Texas, create more pollution and use the incompetent buddy system we were shocked he/Supreme Court put him in the highest office. But we hoped for the best only to see him flush America down the toilet.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:22 pmBut the outright meanness, ugly rhetoric coming from the right’s mouth while President Obama is trying to get America back on track is just appalling.
Either shut up and get out of the way or start helping !!!
If he fails, WE ALL FAIL AS A NATION.

That idiot Bozell that makes a living pissing and moaning about what’s on tv, claimed the nation had failed a long time ago. I am not too worried…

That’s right, it’s your bad for supporting your (R) even though he lied us into that war and got real patriots killed.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:23 pmSANTORUM: Because, well, we, I believe his policies will fail, I don’t know, but I hope they fail, I don’t know. But I believe they will fail.
Barfly was on to a good point. A few days ago, conservatives were positive our country was headed into the crapper because of Obama’s economic policies. Now, they “don’t know”? Why don’t they know? I thought everything they were saying about the results of Obama’s plans were bad things, and now, what, they think it’s possible it just might work? It might work, but they hope it doesn’t? Well, if it might work, then what possible reason could they have to hope it doesn’t work?
TP, please have your people press them more closely on this issue. WHY do they hope Obama fails? (Or that his policies fail?) Have them spell it out, not simply infer it would be good for them. Make them come out and say exactly why they hope Obama’s policies fail. You’ve got cameras there filming them. And they’ve demonstrated in the past they have no idea what a camera does. (They must not know; they keep denying they said things that are on videotape, so they must know what a camera does.)
February 28th, 2009 at 12:24 pmThere is a reason the wingers are not in the majority….they failed when given a chance. Now we have to listen to their whining and lies.

Architect – you along with us will be paying for the wounded from bush’s lies for a long, long time. Think about that when you are hoping for failure for our country.
And so what do you call bailing out the airlines and the Carylyle Group when bush did it back in May of 2008 ? Are you aware of who has major shares in the Carlyle Group ?

February 28th, 2009 at 12:33 pmralph the wonder llama Says:
You hope for the failure of an opponent in a zero sum game — whatever they fail to achieve falls to you.
But it’s not just that. An opponent’s success in one arena is usually interpreted as overall capability, leadership, intelligence, etc. It’s a matter of large governing philosophies.
The GOP is stuck now with the fact that they have to blame the last 8 years on either a) bad governing philosophy, or b) poor adherence to it. Are they wrong, or were they hypocrites? If Obama does well, GOP is seen as inherently wrong and can’t recover as easily. But if he does poorly, Conservativism itself can be vindicated while most Bush and some other individual GOP politicians can take the blame.
Which should Santorum be hoping for?
February 28th, 2009 at 12:33 pmThe Architect Says: I’m not begging for a handout like most of you folks are. I’m just fine.
You folks are always whining about paying taxes and begging for tax cuts – that’s a hand out. It’s unAmerican not to pay your taxes – it’s how we pay our socialized troops, after all…
February 28th, 2009 at 12:34 pmIt appears The Architect (is he trying to make us think he’s Karl Rove?) is long on mindless comments, short on defending them intelligently.
No progressives said this during the heighth of the war. How come? Oh, Bush is an (R). My bad.
What point is this nonsense supposed to be making?
February 28th, 2009 at 12:34 pmThe Architect Says:
——————————————————————————–
The why aren’t you paying for your war?
It’s our war.
===========================================================
And that is why we were against going in. Why pay for something that is unnecessary? Iraq was not our problem. The (R)s are so ignorant when it comes to this. The sad thing is that the vast majority of the chickenhawks have never served themselves including the drunken AWOL W and his five deferment VP. We are paying for that war for so long and it was completely unnecessary.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:35 pmI made the point that if Obama fails, we all fail as a nation.
The Architect (like George Costanza’s an architect, no doubt — must be our old pal Tracy__5) offered the rejoinder that “nobody said this at the height of the Iraq war”.
One might presume from this that The Architect recognizes the truth of collective impact and thus, if a national effort fails, the nation as a whole fails.
Thus, one might further presume that The Architect recognizes the anti-Americanism of wishing for the failure of the President’s policies in a crisis.
Welcome to the Good side, Tracist!

President Obama and the First Lady each earned their own way and believe in encouraging those standards. I have not heard about anyone getting a free handout. If you want to discuss EIC look to who signed the original Bill, that would be Gerald Ford.
You don’t like it, write your Congressman.
America needs good schools, our education standard all the way to college is way behind other countries. We have an infant mortality rate like a third world country.
February 28th, 2009 at 12:41 pmSo, your republican policies haven’t done much, now have they ? But I totally get, a republican’s mindset, all for me and to heck with my neighbor.
The conservatives really do have nothing. They claim they “hope” Obama’s policies fail. Well, if they know what words mean, then they are admitting the possibility that Obama’s policies just might be a rousing success. (But they “hope” they are not.)
Now, when we try to point out that the conservative policies of the past eight years are what led us into this mess, they quickly shoot back that Bush wasn’t “conservative”. (Then why did they all vote for him?)
They are convinced, without any evidence, that conservative policies will work better. They “hope” that what they are calling “Socialist” policies don’t work, but they claim that conservative policies have never really been implemented in this country. So how can they be so sure that their policies will work?
Every time we criticize conservative policies (tax cuts for the rich, and for big corporations), they claim the policies weren’t really conservative. (They even claim Reagan’s policies weren’t, at times, conservative enough.) Yet they still insist that a more conservative economic policy is what we need.
What the conservatives fail to understand is that every time we moved toward what they want (even if we didn’t get there entirely), the country just kept getting worse and worse economically. The economic inequality in this country kept rising. I don’t have to “hope” conservatism fails; it’s already proven to me that it will fail.

If you can’t answer my question now that I explained how, maybe you respond to one of my other questions…like who is the skank in the video you link to on YouTube, or why people who watch that video also like to look at videos of britnany spears naked?
February 28th, 2009 at 12:52 pmThe Architect Says:
No progressives said this during the heighth of the war. How come? Oh, Bush is an (R). My bad.
I said:
What point is this nonsense supposed to be making?
The Architect Says:
Pointing out the liberals sudden patriotism makes perfect sense, to me.
You’re still not making sense. What exactly are you claiming shows “the liberals sudden patriotism”? And what did any of this have to do with the Iraq War? Please make sense. Otherwise, you’re just being evasive (like your slimy namesake, Karl Rove.)
February 28th, 2009 at 12:54 pmAn earlier poster, (Rich H?) observing the idioti of the bush-suck posts, opined:
“I wonder what it would be like to just go to a site like TP and post absolutely the stupidest sh¡t I could think of.”
Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you, “the architect.”
Socialism has never worked.
These fringe lefties have short term memory when it comes to things like hoping for failure in Iraq. That was ok, though.
Really? So, 47-67% of the people oppose Obamas policies?
Why can’t you make your own money?
This is America….
Time for your nap.
Pointing out the liberals sudden patriotism makes perfect sense, to me.
The subtotal of his “wisdom” is exactly that, “say the stupidest sh¡t you can think of.” No followup, no defense, no debate, no sources, just move on to the next ignorant talking point. This is what’s known as a time-sucker/energy vampire.
Anyone who still believes the crap that he’s posting doesn’t get that the public overwhelmingly rejected the republian party’s incompetence and wants them out. “Out, damned snot! Out I say…Yet who would have thought the GOP to have had so much crud in them?”
February 28th, 2009 at 12:57 pmLiving proof that ‘misery loves company’ is Santorum, the total screw-up and failure, whose only success was producing children (God help them and preserve them from getting bitten by the same idiot bug that got their father). He who is the poster child for failure calling for someone else to fail would be funny, except it is so sad.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:02 pmThe architect’s comments are so ann coulter, who said the “surplus” Clinton left was just on paper, but the deficit President Obama is doing is real. Just once I would like a real answer on anything from a republican/conservative.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:04 pmWhich War?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:06 pmEinstein, you’re not.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:07 pm–
Good one. I almost lol’ed….
Y’all hit that dumb-assed troll outta the park!!! Well done!
February 28th, 2009 at 1:07 pmI agree with Spencers mom let the repubs spew their ugly garbage so the public can see who they really are and perhaps wake up. Alexander Pelosi’s documentary was an eye opener and frightening to think some people really think as they do.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:08 pmOh well, I guess he got replenished with talking points.
Carry on.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:08 pmEh, troll, if there were no such thing as history, your pivoting talking points may have some footing.
But this is reality. Not a dime-a-dozen conservabook.
Look! A new PS3 title, Call of Duty: Chickenhawk Bloodletting
!!
February 28th, 2009 at 1:09 pmSay architect, did you sign up and serve in the war ? Afganistan or Iraq ? Or are you a young republican who has other priorities. So many who cheer for war are absent when called.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:09 pmdbadass, I think he means the War on Christmas.
Or maybe the War on Traditional Marriage?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:09 pmRemeber President Obama was right on voting against war with Iraq….maybe he should be given some time to see if he is right on the policy for our country.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:11 pmThe ‘architect’ wants reaction. He will never defend a stand, he just wants reaction. He will try to keep a ‘proactive’ position, getting others to always react to his stupidity, never reacting to a cogent counterpoint, never sourcing a substantive point to further dialogue.
He will not engage, only annoy.
Like all his republican brethren. Whiny, dumb as sh¡t and screaming for attention.
I’m gauging his actual age around…13 and using daddy’s talking points. That’s being charitable.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:11 pmIs the troll trying to say that Democrats started the War in Iraq?
The only thing that would keep such a suggestion from being the stupidest thing ever posted here, is the earlier body of work of the same troll.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:11 pmSO VERY CONSERVATIVE…
…that no one at CPAC will even talk to him, so he’d off in a corner, tapping at his laptop, smirking for himself.
Happy Saturday Tpeeps.
We didn’t even have to wish for Ricky Santorum to FAIL – he did it all by his little self.
If these Righties had any class AT ALL, they’d let nature take its course, and draw conclusions from results.
Mr. Architect – tell Mr. Vandelay I said “hey”.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:11 pmWatch the architect amp up and bring the stupid!
February 28th, 2009 at 1:11 pmI suppose in the War on Poverty, the imaginary welfare queens are the terrorist freedom haters…
February 28th, 2009 at 1:12 pmHey, Architect,
Are you actually going to point to the vote for the Iraq War by Democrats as evidence that they supported illegally invading a country that had nothing to do with 9/11 just to enact regime change?
Are you aware that the Bush Administration lied not only to Democrats but to Republicans, too? They called Dick Armey into their office and told him that Saddam had suitcase nukes ready to hand off to al Qaeda. It was a total bullshit lie, but since they wanted that invasion come hell or high water, they felt that lying was justified to get it.
Tell us, Architect. Do you have <em?any respect for the truth?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:13 pmEnding the Christmas party for the rich (circa 2001) is “class warfare” if you get all of your info from the networks.
You know, stupid troll, if you actually worked for a living or otherwise worked hard at something in your life, you’d be more conducive to the data that wealth really has trickled up from the poor to the rich.

February 28th, 2009 at 1:16 pmIt would be way off topic but I would like to make fun of the Architect’s totally absurd YouTube link. F’ucking hillbillies are always a riot

February 28th, 2009 at 1:18 pmI quote recently passed Lt. Gen. Victor H. Krulak (son Gen. Charles Krulak was 31st CMC), “I never got enthusiasm out of war, and I’m convinced that the true pacifists are the professional soldiers who have actually seen it.”
February 28th, 2009 at 1:19 pmThe Architect Says:
“[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq’s refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs.” — From a letter signed by Joe Lieberman, Dianne Feinstein, Barbara A. Milulski, Tom Daschle, & John Kerry among others on October 9, 1998
February 28th, 2009 at 1:17 pm
That means BushCo was supposed to find out FIRST, dingleberry.
You really want to go this way, huh?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:19 pmOf course every member of the GOP hopes Obama fails. It is their only hope of ever regaing the White House and Congress, which they deem more important than helping save our country. Just goes to show the lack of nobility in these jokers — and definitely a lack of ideas and solutions to our major problems. Hate, lie, bash and terrorize. That’s all they know to do. Working together for the good of Americans? They won’t do it.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:19 pmThe GOP said it was unAmerican to criticize Bush in any way after 9/11, but says it’s OK to bash Obama now. Hypocrites. Other Pennsylvanians finally joined with me in recognizing Santorum for what he is and voted him out of office.
…to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq’s refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs.
A threat that existed only in the Bush Administration’s mind.
You do understand, don’t you, that this was all a lie? That Saddam did not have WMD? That the sanctions were working (even Sec Powell said this)? You do understand all that, don’t you?
Do you believe that the United States should have a foreign policy based on preventive war?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:20 pmI’m going to stay out of any buildings designed by this “architect”.
If they’re as well-designed as his arguments, they won’t survive a decent rainstorm.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:21 pmArchie, you really are a jughead aren’t you. Congress voted based on falsified intel from your deserter in chief. But so what. You still won’t explain why you won’t pay for the bill for this war. If it was justified, then there’s even more of a reason why we should pay for it. Maybe you missed that part because you were cruising the rest rooms at CPAC looking for larry craig.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:22 pmThe sore winners quickly became the sore losers and now the former Senator is hoping things get worse. Of course now the false accusation becomes claiming everyone against the policies of the past eight years was hoping for failure when the reality was hoping to be wrong but constantly being proven right.
I hoped to be wrong eight years ago thinking we’re headed for disaster, but I had no idea of such colossal failure on so many issues.
Sadly, the constituents that support these traitors will find vindication no matter what degree of success is acheived. They can’t see that their policies are what got us in this mess, so why would facts and reality change their minds in the future?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:23 pmArchie seems to be under the impression that the Clinton administration invaded Iraq. What ’s matter Archie, aren’t you proud of Bush’s war anymore.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:23 pmHey folks, I’ve got bette things to do, so I’m going to leave archie in your more than capable hands. Please make it cry.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:24 pm127. Wayne A. Schneider Says: I think Architect is trying to make next week’s edition of “The Weak in Review” on Rachel Maddow’s show. All his “arguments” are just that – weak.
It’s worse than that. Republicans have a routine, consistent pattern of trotting out debunked crap every few months to re-introduce it to those who don’t know they’re full of crap.
It’s a cheesy ploy and one that probably contributed to their being unceremoniously booted from office. It’s an old tactic to get people to react and see if they remember why the crap was debunked.
Next up: Clinton’s fault for 9-11, or something similar.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:24 pmDo you really want to play that deck of cards, troll, that we have walked in lockstep with the dems who voted for this disaster?
You do know that once the commander-in-chief is handed the authority to proceed with war, he/she has the authority to STOP the war?
After the massive blood-shedding, no timetable, no coherent strategy, Bush refused to order the troops home.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:24 pmWell, we have no idea to whom Santorum was referring.
SANTORUM: If…absolutely we hope that his policies fail.
See, Ricky used a pronoun. He could have been talking about anybody’s policies. There is just no way to know.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:26 pmArchitect,
None of the people you are quoting had first hand evidence that Saddam had any WMD, or any active WMD programs. Former generals whop went on TV were being told by the Pentagon what to say. (Fact.) Most Members of Congress (from either party and in both Houses) did not read the full, classified report on pre-war intel. Most based their public comments (the ones you are quoting) on falsified reports that exaggerated the danger for Iraq. Intel that suggested Saddam “might” be trying to do certain things was changed to Saddam “is” doing certain things. The intel they released was a bunch of lies and distortions, so any public comments (or votes for war) ased on those lies and distortions cannot be used as a sound argument that the invasion was justified.
But you refuse to believe that, so what’s the point in anyone listening to you?
Like I said, “weak”.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:26 pmHook us up with some clips from “The Path to 9/11″, Mr. Architect??
February 28th, 2009 at 1:27 pmThe Architect Says:
But so what.
bob waives white flag……:)
I was going to go but this is too funny to pass on. First of all, when someone “waives” something, they pass, or forego it. So yes, I am “waiving the white flag” in that I am indeed forgoing the ‘waving” of said flag.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:27 pmDo you feel powerful when you pretend-win arguments on blogs, Mr. Architect?
Really?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:28 pmI can’t decide if it’s cute or just sad that the troll thinks it’s taunting us.
:-D
February 28th, 2009 at 1:29 pmKind of Exley-ish m.o., imho.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:29 pmArchie, perhaps you could point to some place on the thread where you actually, rebutted a point. (And to save you some time, rebutting doesn’t mean replacing a butt).
February 28th, 2009 at 1:29 pmBill Cohen is a Republican. What do you expect from him? He was even more fooled by Bush’s lies than most. Again, Archie where did you get the idea that the Clinton administration invaded Iraq? I remember 1998 very well, and I’m pretty sure there was no invasion.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:29 pmrhf – you think it’s muckdog?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:30 pmTracist the “architect” thinks he handed someone’s ass to him?
That’s almost as funny as his claim that Democrats started the Iraq War.
But at least he recognizes that Republicans who hope for Obama’s failure are traitors to their country.
If he takes away that little bit of progressive wisdom today, we can let him have his other delusions.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:30 pmSeems I am on the architect’s ignore list…
February 28th, 2009 at 1:30 pmBummer…
Architect,
You haven’t handed anybody’s ass to them. You haven’t intelligently proven a single thing you’ve said. All you’ve proven is that Members of Congress were sufficiently duped by Bush to support his illegal invasion of Iraq. And even when they did give him the authority, he was supposed to do certain things before the invasion which he refused to do.
The War in Iraq was illegal. Period. It was also completely unjustified. Period.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:31 pmselectively clipping quotes proves what?
nice parlor trick, if you run with a slow enough crowd, i suppose.

February 28th, 2009 at 1:32 pmThe Architect Says:
“I am absolutely convinced that there are weapons…I saw evidence back in 1998 when we would see the inspectors being barred from gaining entry into a warehouse for three hours with trucks rolling up and then moving those trucks out.” — Clinton’s Secretary of Defense William Cohen in April of 2003
Kapow! :)
So absence of evidence = evidence?
That one missed, Archie.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:32 pmThe Architect Says:

February 28th, 2009 at 1:34 pmWell I can’t rotate my right foot in a clockwise direction while writing an imaginery 6 in the air but still I can mess with your head if I want to…
So now it’s John Kerry and Ted Kennedy who invaded Iraq. I thought it was the Clinton administration. Archie, you’ve got to stop shifting responsibility for the invasion of Iraq between all of these Democrats. You are getting everyone confused.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:34 pmTrifecta!
On evidence provided to them by Bush. Strike two…
February 28th, 2009 at 1:34 pm“messenger” is a bit of a stretch, for someone delivering years-old recycled news.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:35 pmArchie still won’t explain why he’s a deadbeat who won’t pay his bills, regardless of whether the war was justified or not, or who supported the war or not, we’re paying for bush’s choices now and archie isn’t man enough to man up.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:35 pmIf he’s not going argue rationally the least he could do is provide us with more malaprops.
Kapow! :)
That would be the thumping sound of your remaining brain cell, “HELP! Let me out of here!”
February 28th, 2009 at 1:36 pmWishing President Obama to fail is a wish for the failure of America.
How obvious is the hatred for America going to get from these righty whack jobs?
They just continue to give the dems more campaign material for election ‘10 and ‘12 with this wish for failure.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:36 pmNot to many people refer to Rove as the Architect, now that his party has been marginalized. His last prediction failed horribly – didn’t he plan on voters rejecting permanent war?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:37 pmArchie’s argument fails to reflect the lies upon which the Democrat’s lucid and thoughtful responses were based.
Again, I hope there is a full investigation into awarding the contract for the 28 Marine One helicopters from BushCo to an Italian firm. Payback for the forged Niger/yellowcake documents?
PEACE
February 28th, 2009 at 1:37 pmSo much for “Country First”.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:37 pmThe Architect Says:

You’ve been completely ignoring those of us who attacked your message. You just keep trotting out old quotes that only prove Bush successfully lied to Congress. You’ve proven nothing.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:38 pmThe Republican “base” is the evangelical Christian voter – those who vote for any candidate as long as the person is anti-abortion and anti-gay.
How is it that so many who profess to be Christian are so filled with hate?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:39 pmNot to avoid wasting time on a troll, or anything, but:
Reading Charles Krauthammer is generally a great purgative. Like a blind squirrel, he finally managed to find a nut yesterday and wrote a column that didn’t require him to froth and bay at the moon.
Of course, Krauthammer isn’t happy about any of this, but I think he presents a remarkably clear-headed view of President Obama’s agenda. And I like it.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:40 pmRepublicans define “country” as GOP.

Thanks for saying this so well Wayne. And when we all grow bored with Archie he will claim victory. Kind of like how the house republicans claimed victory when they voted in such a partisan fashion against the stimulus bill.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:42 pmI’ve been reading all the posts and have a question for the troll. Archie, with all your BS about who said what when, I ask you… Were are the WMD? What happened? Did they all just disappear into thin air? It was bush and his necon thugs who said they were there what happened? Why was your fearless leader so full of shit? I’ll wait for your answer.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:43 pmWayne A. Schneider Says:
Don’t you have to have quotes from three different people in order for it to be a “trifecta”?
This one doesn’t have a solid grasp on logic, or language, or math for that matter. In his favor however, he can spell better than most of his ilk…
February 28th, 2009 at 1:43 pmThis is a perfect example of how these right-wingers operate. Archie is blaming the Iraq War on the Democrats who were lied to, while absolving the liars in the Bush administration.
Now, they are blaming the homeowners who were taken advantage of by predatory lenders, and whose jobs were shipped overseas by greedy CEOs, while granting a pass to the corrupt a-holes who pocketed trillions of dollars from their ponzi schemes.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:45 pmOh, Architect… just post the link to the page you’re pulling these posts from.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:45 pmFor eight, long, bloody, torture-wracked, impoverished years, I wished with every fivber of my being that The Chimp would fail, could be blocked, frustrated, obstructed in his plans for the Country.
Literally every time I aw him speak, I waited in hopes that a dime-sized hole would appear in his forehead, just over the left eye.
I wanted (and still want) the GOPuke caucus to be struck with mortal paralysis.
Does that make ME a traitor?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:46 pmAnd when we all grow bored with Archie he will claim victory.
Which would prove, Bobwurst, that trying to intelligently persuade us that he was right and we were wrong was never his “goal”. He’s just trying to drive us away. Sadly, he will succeed, because after a while, it just gets boring constantly proving him wrong. That’s his measure of “victory” – not in being right, but in being wrong enough to make people get sick of arguing with him. It’s a form of mental illness, and I hope he gets the help he so desperately needs soon.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:47 pmThe good news out of all this is that with the Rusher in charge of the Repug party, dittoheads like Archie will be the minority party for decades to come.

Where is Osama bin Laden?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:49 pmWhat? It wasn’t Bush’s war! Bush had nothing to do with the invasion of Iraq. I heard it was Ted Kennedy and John Kerry who did the Shock and Awe thing.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:51 pmThe GOP has no idea what it stands for, and their leadership is totally devoid of fresh ideas to present to the American public. So instead they use the “shotgun” approach to politics–randomly attack Democrats and their policies, juvenilely call Obama names (”Socialist!!!”) in a feeble attempt to stir fear and hatred among the masses, desperately hoping to hit something, anything.
So far, they’ve mostly just hit air.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:51 pmZooey, He’s down on the ranch with his buddy George.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:51 pmalpuz3,
Thanks for providing the link that “Architect” was too cowardly to provide. The author’s argument proves nothing. If all those people quoted had done their own independent investigations and came to the conclusions they publicly stated, then there might be validity to the argument that “everyone thought Saddam had WMD”. But they didn’t, because they couldn’t. They relied on “evidence” provided by the Bush Administration, and that “evidence” was not objective. It was constructed for the purpose of duping people into believing that invading Iraq was necessary (even though it wasn’t.)
February 28th, 2009 at 1:51 pmSo how do we balance trying to engage someone in a thoughtful way with not feeding the trolls? Seriously. I started out trying to have an adult conversation, and kept trying. But at some point I turned to whack a troll for some comic relief (which says something about my own maturity level..).

Mebbe, mebbe not.
It the economic conditions get significantly worse–and they not only can, but predictably will–the Pukes will come to power again blaming Obama & the Dims, Satan, Homos, Hippies, Atheists, and Al Gore for all of it…
and the sheeple–the ones enraptured by American Idol and MMA–will fearfully rise to follow the “man on the horse”, especially if wrapped in the flag and waving a crucifix.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:54 pmGood ole Ricky! Can you beleive that moron was my senator? Isn’t there a Terri Shivo or a some cutural misgiving that Rick can fixate on? By the way, who gives a crap what a washed up politician thinks, Santorum, DeLay, Gingrigh? Is this all the Repugs have to offer? Jeez!
February 28th, 2009 at 1:54 pmAll the people on the trolls list, all thought that the inspectors should be allowed to finish their job before numb nuts took any action, which didn’t happen.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:55 pmGetting back to Santuroum, did he have the pickled fetus in a jar with him?
February 28th, 2009 at 1:56 pmIt’s “pro-America” if you don’t speak out against tinkering in another country’s affairs uninvited.
But it’s in no way “anti-America” if you oppose the necessary domestic spending (and increases) to keep the people inside America educated, healthy, civilized, and politically and culturally aware. Apply any buzz word, “income redistribution”, “socialism”, “stealing from our kids”.
Pardon me, but I thought that domestic spending had in it list of priorities investment in our kids.
The GOP is the largest definition of catch-22 I will ever witness in my lifetime. Their policies have squeezed millions like a turnip to benefit the benefited few.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:56 pmThis year’s CPAC theme?

February 28th, 2009 at 1:58 pmI see Archie ran out of talking points that Rush provided, so he had to go away and leave us.
February 28th, 2009 at 1:59 pmNo, I’m sure that bin Laden is still a big proponent of the Iraq War. Archie doesn’t like the war any longer, as he is trying to find someone to blame for it.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:00 pmExcellent point rhf. All these republicans are on the same side as bin laden now. And we’re the traitors…

February 28th, 2009 at 2:05 pmSo the repugs at CPAC have trotted out all the up and coming leaders of the Party of NO. Bachman, Rush, Jindal, Steele, Ann(I’m a man) Coulter, Kantor, Malkin and Joe the plumber. Now I ask you, would you buy a used car from any of these clowns?
February 28th, 2009 at 2:11 pmThe more of these clowns, the better. People need to be reminded constantly who are the bad guys here.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:11 pmTonight, in the climactic moment, Rush will bid them don their black tracksuits and adidas tennies, swig the juice of freedom, and lie down to await the Mothership, piloted by St. Ronald, to wisk them away to planet Dystopia, where they will amass and plot their revenge against the wicked, wayward Earthmen (Libtard Moonbats).

Don’t ban the trolls. I would hate to see this site become like the Puma sites were everyone has the hive mind. From what I’ve seen in my short time here, the trolls are put in their place.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:14 pmSince watching CPAC on and off the last few days, I think they should take their show on the road and hit all the comedy clubs. This has been better then SNL.

February 28th, 2009 at 2:24 pmEndgame: From PNAC September 2000
This bush wet-dream war had been percolating for some time.
Kinda makes them previous quotes moot…
February 28th, 2009 at 2:25 pmFrom now on whenever a Republican states an opposition to one of President Obama’s plans or policies, the FIRST question which should be put to that Republican is: “Are you opposing the President to make him fail?”
Bobwurst Says:
So how do we balance trying to engage someone in a thoughtful way with not feeding the trolls?
I like (but often fail to follow) a “three strikes and you’re out” guideline: a troll gets two comments that are nonsense, baiting, attention seeking and after the third I switch from debate to whack-a-troll and/or talking about rather than to the troll. I do not want trolls banned however if they are giving us the opportunity to put forth our arguments.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:28 pmI can dialogue with y’all on topics just fine, even if I have to kick an anklebiter occasionally to do it. Kinda spices thing up, keeps the snarkfin sharp.
Face it – with their limited reading and comprehension skills, it’s easy to stay 3-4 posts ahead of them, and still pay attention to the contributions of substance that are made.
(parentheses work well, too – it’s a signal that the comment is directed at the goodly posters and not the troll (and I think it means they can’t hear me, too)) aggravates them particularly, to know a back has been turned to them.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:31 pmGive me a break will ya. Have you tried posting an opposing view point on any Puma site? I find most of them no different then rightwing sites, which was my point. It seems like everyone had good fun with Archie, seeing as half this thread was responding to him, so I don’t get your point.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:32 pmFrom James Wolcott:
Chewing the Kud
O, pray, let this be so.
At Contentions, a little birdie poops into Jennifer Rubin’s ear:
Here at CPAC a well placed source with knowledge of the Republican Senate Committee plans tells me that Larry Kudlow is “considering” a Senate run against embattled Connecticut Senator Chris Dodd.
Yes, the same Larry Kudlow who natters about “mustard seeds” nightly on CNBC and was the chief evangelist for the Goldilocks economy (a.k.a., “the greatest story never told”), and who, in 2007, following the Capitol Hill testimony of then-rookie Fed chairman Ben Bernanke, hyperventilated:
Senate Democrats like Christopher Dodd and Chuck Schumer kept harping about income inequality and wage stagnation, trying to change the subject from the excellent economic news and to pave the way for a tax hike on the top, most successful American earners. But wages are booming. And the rest of the inequality story is so much statistical illusion and faux arithmetic. (Just ask Washington economics scholar Alan Reynolds).
[snip]
America’s bull market economy stands at the epicenter of the newly-capitalist world market economy. Therefore, it is no surprise that America’s stock rise is being emulated around the world. This is called economic leadership.
The reality is that non-inflationary growth and rising living standards are occurring all around the globe. For this, thank the spread of American-style, free-market capitalism. Some call it cowboy capitalism, but I prefer to think of it as prosperity capitalism.
Record wealth is now being created among a hundred million plus investors in the U.S., including union and public employee pension fund holders who are 60 percent invested in the Bernanke bull market. This, even though they rail against stock market wealth and business in general, and still don’t get it that their retirement wealth bread is being buttered by the fabulous expansion of the portfolio value of the ownership society.
Stocks are the best barometer of future business and economic health. They are signaling that the wealth of the nation currently and prospectively looks excellent.
[snip]
The recessionists are wrong. The bears are wrong. The pessimists are wrong. The doom and gloom crowd is wrong.
We are witnessing the Bush/Bernanke boom. It is still the greatest story never told.
Let’s start a “draft Larry” campaign. If the RNC was actually stupid enough to support him financially, his loss would drain RNC coffers, and perhaps cause another repub candidate to fail, from lack of aid.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:32 pmIs there any wonder why Pennsylvanians decided to cut Rick Santorum loose. Conservatism really does screw up one’s head.

February 28th, 2009 at 2:38 pmahhh yes, thanks for the years of laughs at your expense attendees of cpac
Seems like the first word-of-response to blogging trolls or real-live-reactionaries who wish the president’s policies fail should be a simple retort:
“Treason.”
Nothing more. Repeat the word enough and others will begin to see the truth of their hatred.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:38 pmPatty, I agree, repugs have always put party first country second. It is more important to them that they gain control of congress then the country falling farther into the abyss.

Personally, I think it’s the other way around. I think being screwed up in the head causes one to become a Conservative.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:42 pmA little troll post mortem, if you will:
Interesting evolution of the troll’s argument. He first complained that “Socialism has never worked”.
When that was demolished, he moved on to try to attack the notion that Republicans were unpatriotic for hoping for failure. He did this in a fateful way: by claiming that progressives all wished for the Iraq war to fail.
This wasn’t very effective, in that it indicted his own side and essentially acknowledged that Republicans who hoped for Obama’s failure were, in fact, hoping for the failure of us all. But he was committed to it.
Nevertheless, his next move was rather odd. Cleverly challenged on Republican willingness to wage war yet unwillingness to raise taxes to pay for it, our friend began producing cut-and-paste comments from prominent Democrats seeming to support taking action against Saddam.
The troll failed to note that these statements completely undercut his earlier assertion that the Left wanted the Iraq war to fail.
So let’s review:
the troll went on the attack but soon inadvertently admitted that a) Republicans are traitors and b) liberals did not “all wish for Bush to fail”, while at the same time making no ground on any front, and posting one of the Top Five lamest troll responses of all time.
Quite a morning for our friend.
(This analysis will be published in the April edition of Troll Psychology Journal.)

So you’re arguing that it’s a matter of biology, and not a matter of choice?
February 28th, 2009 at 2:46 pmIf you can’t debate, conflate – right Mr. Vandelay?
February 28th, 2009 at 2:51 pmI hope Obama fails as well. I want the America designed by the Founding Fathers. What Obama puts forth for policy will bankrupt the country. I want freedom – not dependency on the US Government. Someday…someday…you will see that your freedoms have been taken away and you will have only yourselves to blame.
Remember: The government that gives you everything you want…is the government that will take everything you have!
February 28th, 2009 at 2:51 pmralph the wonder llama, excellent summary and I trust you were wearing an anti-motion sickness patch when you did the analysis (I’m glad I can use that word now!).
February 28th, 2009 at 2:51 pmCPAC. Traitors all. Their greatest fear is that Obama succeeds and further marginalizes the Rethugs more than they already are.

So you’re arguing that it’s a matter of biology, and not a matter of choice?
Well, physiology, yes. I don’t think it’s “biology” in the sense of it being necessarily genetic. (Not necessarily.) I think it’s more like somewhere along the line, their fears took over their minds and they refused to stop, calm down, take a deep breath, and think. Every single one of their justifications for doing what they think we should do is based on an unsubstantiated fear that something that disgusts them might happen if we don’t do what they say. Some conservatives are, I believe, born with a predisposition toward letting their fears rule their thinking, but I think the rest are probably just bitter and hateful towards liberals. (Many of the more rabid right wing “thinkers” are former lefties, and they seem to have the most hate-filled rhetoric. Think David Horowitz and his ilk.)
Something went horribly wrong (as in anti-social, or psychotic) in their heads, and they started believing in Conservatism.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:54 pmSo Archie you are back. Maybe you could go back up to #203 and answer my question or is that to hard for you.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:54 pmAbsolutely no one is surprised at Limbaugh’s or Santorium’s statements.
These self-important, self-absorbed conservative butts would rather that 90% of Americans suffer, than have their own delusions shattered.
The CPAC folks live in a non-reality. These neocons project their own bad faith actions upon everyone else.
As their own philosophy failed during the last 12 years, they are afraid that a different approach will succeed.
You can only describe these neocon Republicans as pitiful, sad and dangerous in the sense of a rabid dog.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:54 pmI want the America designed by the Founding Fathers.
Another southern loser who dreams of owning slaves…
February 28th, 2009 at 2:54 pmOf course they hope Obama fails, that’s their credo..government doesn’t work so it’s every man for himself. The GOP has become the party of failure, pure & simple. It amazes me that any American would want to be affiliated with them.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:55 pmMr. Vandelay, what exactly in my “screed” was false?
I’d like to make sure it doesn’t contain any errors before publication.
Thanks.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:56 pmSeriously – They’ve got 6 rhetorical parlor tricks (those that young Rove stole from Atwater’s fil-a-fax)
false choice
false moral equivalency
conflation
strawman
red herring
ad hominem
couldn’t pass COM101 on that skillset guys.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:57 pmSomething went horribly wrong (as in anti-social, or psychotic) in their heads, and they started believing in Conservatism.
So you’re actually arguing the opposite, that environmental factors (childhood beatings, ingesting paint chips, being dropped on one’s head as an infant) are the dominant factor?
February 28th, 2009 at 2:58 pmhad enough,
It was a great address. I loved the part where he said, “So am I.” The right wing is scared out of their panties, because they know he will put up a fight. And they also know that with a near-80% approval rating, they won’t get the support of the American people to fight Obama. That just leaves lying and cheating. I guess it’s lucky for them they’ve been honing the arts of Lying and Cheating to where they can do them in their sleep.
February 28th, 2009 at 2:58 pmI will repeat, look at their leaders. Rush, Malkin, Steele, Kantor, Jindal Bachman, Ann(I’m a man)Coulter and Joe the plumber. Would you buy a used car from anyone of them?
February 28th, 2009 at 2:58 pmLimbaugh should probably be worrying about his heart failing
February 28th, 2009 at 2:58 pmBut, this is funny, Limbaugh doesnt have the guts to say that Jindals speech was a failure.
I know Limbaugh has plenty of guts, but where are they on Jindals speech?
February 28th, 2009 at 3:00 pmEven with the irritableness of walking in trash (trolls) to unearth fresh roses (progdemlibs), posters like ralph the great @ 256 explain the undying inferior troll complex and polish our side, one thread at a time.
Kudos, ralph!
February 28th, 2009 at 3:01 pmI love how wingnuts dream of this idyllic past when “The Founding Fathers” had all the answers and a unified vision for America.
Which Founding Fathers did you mean, Reaganmummy?
Did you mean the America designed by Thomas Jefferson, who believed in liberal ideals of equality but also owned slaves and supported states’ rights in order to preserve the right to own slaves?
Or did you mean the America designed by John Adams, who supported a strong federal government and abhorred slavery, but who signed the Alien and Sedition Acts?
Which America did you mean?

Isn’t that what some shiftless loser would do to get a handout?
Grab your bootstraps, friend – you’ll be ok.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:03 pmNot quite, barfly. I believe that there is no “one size fits all” explanation for why people become conservative. Some are born with a genetic pre-disposition to let their fears rule their thinking, and some started thinking that way because of something traumatic in their lives (physically or emotionally).
Whether they were born that way, or came to be that way later in life, there is something wrong with them. Either way, they are letting their fears do their rationalizing for them, and that’s why they are always wrong. And that’s why Hope will win in the end.

February 28th, 2009 at 3:05 pmI’m just using the gay arguments Wayne. Lame joke, but oh, well…
February 28th, 2009 at 3:07 pmYou only say you “hope” something fails if you are afraid that it won’t fail. This language demonstrates that A) They care more about ideology than the success of America and B) They actually KNOW that their ideology and the policies that result from it don’t work and the KNOW that progressive policies do work and that they are about to be exposed as failures themselves.
Therefore, they hopeObama’s policies fail so that their conservative ideology/policies aren’t proven to be inept and wrong for America.

But those crabs he special deliveried to her are no joke…
February 28th, 2009 at 3:09 pmArchie, can’t you answer my question I posted #203? I’m sure Rush has given you a talking point you can refer to, so you can sound like you know what you’re talking about, or did your guy leave you speechless.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:10 pmI’m pretty sure rhf was fed up with your odious presence Mr. Vandelay.

February 28th, 2009 at 3:16 pmThese Republicans. Just think about how little they care if the country goes under. Just as long as a black, democrat does not pull us out of the depression. What must it be like to care so little about their own country and their own fellow citizens.
And yet they still have middle class Republicans that will continue to vote for them. And you have to wonder why.

Maybe I should have just done a little crack like Obama??? I could perhaps see that utopian run government you all do.
Till then, I will keep my money, guns and bible in safekeeping till you try to take them.
Oh and by the way…I am a 29 yr. old Conservative (not a thawed out 50 year old)- the son of an alcoholic father – payed for my education through military service and waiting tables – worked my ass off and now am in the tax bracket that Obama calls rich.
I personally wouldn’t piss on you liberals if you were on fire.
I despise all that you stand for that much. Conservatism is not perfect – but it is a far cry better than being dependent on the governments Tit for their livelihood.

I can answer your question when I return from taking my children to dinner. Not that you are worth my effort…
February 28th, 2009 at 3:28 pmRaygunman, Take your time, you won’t be missed.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:29 pmConservatism is not perfect – but it is a far cry better than being dependent on the governments Tit for their livelihood.
Why do you hate Cheney and Halliburton?
Why do you hate wall street?
February 28th, 2009 at 3:29 pmI’d piss on you Reaganboy – fire or no.
That’s what makes me nice, and you a ho.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:30 pmWhat I don’t understand is, this CAPC meeting was a gathering of a collection of some of America’s must notorious criminals in one place. Why didn’t the FBI raid it and make arrests like they did the Mafia in upstate New York years ago.
I guess their intel computer was down.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:31 pmIs Raygunman and Archie the same person?
February 28th, 2009 at 3:31 pmReaganman sounds like he was in one of the circular firing squads the republicans are now famous for and took a grazing shot to the temple.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:31 pmHey Archie, I tried engaging you in an actual discussion and you refused. See post 69.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:31 pmI loved torquing off you liberal idiots. GO to the mailbox and wait for your checks…
February 28th, 2009 at 3:32 pmMaybe Reaganmummy’s determination of “fear” is just one more instance of a conservative manifesting classic psychological projection.

February 28th, 2009 at 3:33 pmHey Runnyraygunman do you remember in 2005 when the GOP porked 24 billion with some 6376 earmarks?
Seems to me privatization IS sucking off the public teet.

February 28th, 2009 at 3:33 pmRaygunman, you failed. All you’ve done is give all of us a good laugh.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:34 pmAnd archie, there’s a difference between a typo and not knowing what a single-syllable word means…
February 28th, 2009 at 3:34 pmThey’re just a little raw, about being betrayed by their “big thinkers,” like Kudlow, who led them down a garden path, and right over an economic cliff.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:34 pmReaganboy – If your Dad pissed away his time in the service getting drunk – we want our money back – that’s not what we pay the military for.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:34 pmArchie, still don’t have the balls or brains to answer my question from #203. Being brainless must be a terrible thing.

Let me just add, BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Anyone surprised?…anyone?….
February 28th, 2009 at 3:38 pmTo Reaganman:
Treason.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:39 pm370 Reaganman
Sounds like a terrorist
February 28th, 2009 at 3:39 pmIS a domestic terrorist.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:40 pmRaygunman, I live in Minneapolis, come and visit. I’m a biker who would love to see you come and visit.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:40 pmThe closing words of Lincoln’s Gettysburg address: “…and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”
Fast forward to July 27, 1988, when Ronald Reagan, addressing the Future Farmers of America, remarked, “The ten most dangerous words in the English language are ‘Hi, I’m from the government, and I’m here to help.’”
So, we are to be afraid of a government which is “of the people, by the people and for the people”? And at the same time, we are told to have no fear of megacorporations whose only concern is maximizing profits, regardless of the cost to others?
A government that is “of the people, by the people, and for the people” is only considered dangerous by those whose interests are diametrically opposed to those of the people. The anti-people crowd were duly recognized during George W. Bush’s comments on October 20, 2000, about the “the haves and the have mores. Some people call you the elite. I call you my base.” For a refresher, go to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mn4daYJzyls
Food for thought:
“Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty.” — Thomas Jefferson
“The shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep’s throat, for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as his liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act as the destroyer of liberty.” — Abraham Lincoln
Translation for the latter quote: “The shepherd (i.e., those who truly represent the people who elected them) drives the wolf (i.e., the elite, whether they are wealthy individuals, corporations and/or goverment officials using their position to enrich the other two) from the sheep’s (i.e., the people’s) throat, for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as his liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act as the destroyer of liberty.”
February 28th, 2009 at 3:41 pmGeezus, it’s downright scary!
And you can’t refute one single point!
I fileted those an hour ago. They’re over on the counter, but the flies have been picking at them…
February 28th, 2009 at 3:41 pmReaganman Says:

First of all, prove they’re your kids…
February 28th, 2009 at 3:42 pmSecond of all, threatening someone on the internet show how big a puss you are.
Third of all, I thought you were taking your “kids” out to dinner, what happened, did they decide they would rather not get into the car with you?
Reaganman,
What’s it like to be so consumed by hate? Do you feel empathy for anyone who is suffering? Do you believe that it was your conservative beliefs, and your conservative beliefs alone, that allowed you to get to the point where you earn more than $250,000 per year? Because if that’s true, there are some cold hard facts about Liberal America that you would need to learn.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:42 pmRaygunman said: I loved torquing off you liberal idiots. GO to the mailbox and wait for your checks…
You have about as much chance of ‘torquing’ me off thru name calling and silly projectionism, as Limbaugh does at being relevant.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:42 pmBobwurst, you hit a sore spot, Reaganman must have to pay child support….couldn’t keep the old sacntimony of marrige thing going I guess.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:43 pm(he’s got that blood-fever ragin’ now. thinly-veiled threats of violence, temples pounding, knee pumping frantically against the underside of the desk, pleading with his portrait of Reagan(actually a vintage movie poster of “Bonzo goes to the Casbah) to give him the strength to cling to the myth just one more day…)

Uh..yeah, that’s it. I’m bloody terrified…
February 28th, 2009 at 3:44 pmNice try Archie, If your ever in Minneapolis, come up to the red and white building on Washington Ave and ask for JJ.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:44 pmAngels 81,
That’s perfect, Reaganman will meet you in the third stall of the men’s bathroom at the airport, He’s very familiar with it.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:44 pmThe wingnuts talk about tradition and following the constitution and its very apparent they are being duped into putting government power into the hands of the banksters.
Thats not conservatism..
February 28th, 2009 at 3:45 pmYou mean like those checks Geo.W. Dummy sent everyone? Twice?
February 28th, 2009 at 3:46 pmsimpletons should stick to the sports page.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:47 pmbobwrust, I’m not threatening anybody. Don’t overreact. I always like to meet new friends.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:47 pmReaganman Says:
Mention my kids again and I will find you…
Anyone who’d take Reagan as a handle isn’t much of a worry.
He sold weapons to terrorists, while claiming he didn’t, so Reagangroupie isn’t much of a threat. If he shows up with a bible-shaped cake, and tries to sell you TOW missiles, don’t worry: it’s all part of a larger plan.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:47 pm395.The Architect Says: I say “no” to drugs. No thanks.

February 28th, 2009 at 3:48 pmI think it’s daddy issues. Most people who call themselves “conservatives” these days are really just authoritarians. Their fathers messed them up, so now they can’t think for themselves.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:49 pmRaygunman Said: GO to the mailbox and wait for your checks…
I waited and waited and waited…no checks.
Maybe your pajamas media check was misrouted?
February 28th, 2009 at 3:50 pmI think you are jumping to conclusions. Some people are stupid even when they are sober.

bobwrust, I’m not threatening anybody. Don’t overreact. I always like to meet new friends.
I didn’t think you were threatening him, I assumed you were calling his bluff. You’ll notice he has disappeared. I’d be wiling to bet the closest reaganman ever came to the military was playing xbox.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:51 pmThe insanity of the wingnuttery gallery, hoping the policies of the new president fail, reveals that they care nothing for the country or the citizens.
If the president’s policies fail it means that the reichwingnut philosophy put our country and our economy in such peril it could not be saved.
Way to go wingnuts.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:52 pm395.The Architect Says: I say “no” to drugs. No thanks.
I recall that Limbaugh used to say something along those lines as well. No, apparently, means ‘Yes’ in doublespeak.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:53 pmArchie, everyone here already know you have comprehension issues.

Wow, a winger circle-jerk…
February 28th, 2009 at 3:53 pmAnyone else think that reaganman, after spewing his hatred, passing judgement, painting all who disagree with his narrow view with the same broad brush, will show up at church tomorrow morning feeling all righteous and holier than thou?
Okay, that’s just a sucker bet.
PECE
February 28th, 2009 at 3:53 pmArchitect,
Empuje por favor uno para el inglés
archiebald, note the word uno, it means one….para means for and inglés, well, you get the idea.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:54 pmOh, for the self-assured, gloats who used to show up in ‘04, and ‘05. Now there was some quality trolling.
These guys?
Bah. Strictly high-school.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:55 pmNow that’s funny!
February 28th, 2009 at 3:55 pmReaganman? Where are you? I hope you’re not out driving around running every prius you see into the ditch or something.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:55 pmloosly translated.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:55 pmThe Architect Says:
——————————————————————————–
reveals that they care nothing for the country or the citizens
Quite the opposite.
How so genius? The peril we face after the past free market, deregulation debacle has us in uncharted waters. How can more failure be good for anyone? If you hope for failure of this president, any president, you hope for failure of the country and it’s citizens.
Have you ever served in the military?
February 28th, 2009 at 3:57 pmArchitect Said: Quite the opposite.
Yes, its why they want the economy to morph into a full blown depression, why Roberston wants San Fran blown up, why a nuke hitting chicago would be funny, why Coulter talks about poison in judges creme brulee, why Bolton want the top ten floors knocked off the UN, why McCain wants to bomb bomb bomb
February 28th, 2009 at 3:57 pmI don’t believe that the web gives you the right to threaten people because nobody knows who you really are. I responded to raygunman to let him know where he could find me if he really meant what he said. Saying he would hunt someone down for a comment on a web page, well he can always find me if he is so inclined.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:58 pmNow archie has been reduced to cutting and pasting random posts like some sort of a wingnut exquisite corpse.
February 28th, 2009 at 3:59 pmbut responding to a thread and telling the person exactly where to find you…..not the same. see how that works. Try again
February 28th, 2009 at 4:00 pmHey angels, you didn’t threaten reaganboy, you called his bluff. That archie is too stupid to see that just means that archie is stupid.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:00 pmbut responding to a thread and telling the person exactly where to find you…..not the same. see how that works. Try again.
btw standing on the side trying to egg on the fight, well, my little sister used to do that…..that would be you.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:01 pmEven as much as I was against the Iraq War, I never hoped that it would be such a debacle that our country would lose thousands of lives and trillions of dollars. I could see it coming.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:02 pmQuite the opposite.
It’s the big bad daddy, the stern authoritarian, they crave.
The poor must be punished (conservatives think), for daring to believe in the American dream.
In their eyes, the poor are fodder units, nothing more.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:04 pmAnd I agree with whoever noted the lack of quality trolls since conservatives have been roundly repudiated in the last two election cycles.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:05 pmNow, even gutless warmongers like Archie understand what I knew before the invasion. So, he is trying to find someone other than Bush to blame for the disaster.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:06 pmArchie is just one typo away from the “I know you are but what am I” argument. I’ve yet to see a coherent thought in any of its posts and now I can’t even follow the “huh, thought so” and “what’s your point” and “geezus it’s scary” broken synapses.
PEACE
February 28th, 2009 at 4:07 pmI will call someones bluff. When I post something I tell the truth as I see it. Just because someone uses some handle to post hate and threats on the web gives him some kind of pass I don’t except. My motto is, put up or shut up. I will stand up for what I believe, and I won’t stand behind not being known as a excuse.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:07 pmThe dirty little secret is that Limbaugh wants a depression where retired people will lose what they saved, where employment goes into double digits, where people lose their homes and businesses shutter.
Limbaugh wants to see Americans out on the streets selling apples, camped in their cars, holding up signs on street corners begging for work.
Limbaugh wants to see children go hungry.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:08 pmspencers mom Says:
Archie is just one typo away from the “I know you are but what am I” argument.
Actually,,,I believe he tried a variation of that one when he tried to claim that we wanted bush to fail in Iraq….
February 28th, 2009 at 4:09 pmReaganman: The next “Internet Tough Guy!”
February 28th, 2009 at 4:09 pmThe Criminal Bush admitted he condoned torture, a traitor and war criminal; now the RepubliCons admit they are a party of traitors. Serious investigations must begin! Time to start passing out jail terms.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:10 pmLimbaugh is doing Osama Bin Ladens work, carrying his water, hoping that America fails.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:11 pmThese guys are still in 1984 mode.
“WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.”
So maybe FAILURE IS SUCCESS….???
At least it has been the last 8 years…
February 28th, 2009 at 4:15 pmIf one thing has become clear in the evolution of on-line political debate, and that is the first person to threaten other posters with physical violence, automatically loses the debate. Given the near-impossible chance two posters will meet in daily life, it is absurd to engage in such toothless posturing. Now, suggesting someone is cartoonish, and as such, should be wary of other cartoon characters who might have contracted a PTSD in sexual commerce with said fictional creation, well, that’s just a public service announcement.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:17 pmWell sure. If things get bad enough, Rush won’t have to go to Dominica in order to find boy prostitutes.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:17 pmRight on Barfly, and the idea of someone getting PTSD from having sex with a conservative is a wonderful image!
February 28th, 2009 at 4:19 pmArchitect fail.
Oh, the irony…
February 28th, 2009 at 4:19 pmOops; sorry for the lack of editing.
Please don’t beat on me, Archie. It won’t happen again, I promise.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:20 pmXisithrus Says:
Limbaugh wants to see children go hungry.
Means more food left for Rush.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:21 pmTo tell the truth, I really not that worried about reaganman, if he wants to find me he can just come over to his ex wife’s house. I’m attached to the p3nis in her mouth.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:21 pmDman, these trolls don’t have the staying power anymore. One crack about the kids and it’s all wanting to get up in your grill.
They’s real defensive about their farm animals out yonder in red state kontry…
February 28th, 2009 at 4:34 pmSo blogging on the web rally means nothing. Anyone can say anything, but because nobody knows who is who it really doesn’t matter. Everybody can be a blowhard and because nobody calls them on their BS its OK. I just don’t buy that shit. If someone threatens someone I will let them know were they can resolve that issue. I have no problem letting people know where they can find me if they really want to make good on their threats. When I come to sites like this I expect people to be honest about their opinions. If people say they will come after someone I take them at their word. All I’m saying is, if you want to come after someone I’ll tell you were to find me.
February 28th, 2009 at 4:34 pmArchie, you really are a sorry troll. We are now at post 446 and you still can’t answer my question from # 203. Are you dumb or what?
February 28th, 2009 at 4:37 pmThe republicans hope Obama’s stimulus plan fails. And just what do they think will happen if they get their wish? That all the people that will lose their jobs, retirement, savings, homes, etc. will all of a sudden clamour for more massive tax cuts for the rich and vote for republican candidates? That seems to be their only plan for anything. If their is a reasonable republican on this thread, I’d like to hear your point of view for what the republicans’ vision for our country really is. Because I’ve heard nothing of substance from any republican mouthpiece or representative except lies, distortions and name-calling.

This is a bad philosophy on so many levels. You don’t know how crazy a great many people are. Second, that nutcase may not be the only one who shows; I remember when FOX broadcast some guy’s home address, it was vandalized doubtless out of ideological revenge for whatever issue compelled them to do so idiotic a thing to begin with.
Taking on the entire world via the internet is not a ‘prudent investment.’ Anyone who threatens people over the web has already arrived at a mindset by ignoring a plethora of social and temperamental conduct.
Not the kind of torqued lizard brain you want knowing your whereabouts and identity.

February 28th, 2009 at 4:55 pmSo when you said you wanted to drown President Obama and when you cheered on the notion of dropping a nuclear bomb on Chicago to murder millions of your fellow American citizens, you meant “quite the opposite,” did you, Olbermannn-obsessed troll? What a hate-filled, pathetic little assclown you are.

February 28th, 2009 at 4:59 pmYou are irrevelant Santorum. A despicable has been that helped create this mess we are in along with the other GOP scumbags. And now you want Obama to fail, this country to fail. You should all be tried for treason you pieces of crap.
Every time I see your face or hear you speak I’m reminded of why i worked so hard with Moveon to get you the hell out of office.

February 28th, 2009 at 5:27 pmI remember Santorum passing out envelopes full of campaign “contributions” to his fellow gangsters on the senate floor.
February 28th, 2009 at 5:40 pmIt’s all Limbaugh has left. The Clinton bashing is worn out and out of date. He must keep his show rolling and bring in listeners to pay for his habits. It’s all about entertainment. Really folks, do you ever take that guy seriously . . . and those that do (Santorum for instance) should ask themselves what in heck they are doing to help our country. I could never believe it when Dick Cheney gave Limbaugh status by coming on his foolish show!!
February 28th, 2009 at 5:44 pmIt took you 446 posts to figure that out?
February 28th, 2009 at 5:48 pmThe only status Limbaugh gained was amongst evil galactic emperors.
February 28th, 2009 at 5:52 pmWell, if obama does fail, what will be a severe recession will turn into the second great depression.
The economic hardship on masses of people will be unimaginable.
Let me try this, let me try to use republican logic.
Rick Santorum, i hope you wake up tomorrow with brain cancer.
Rush, i hope you wake up tomorrow with lung cancer
Anne Cuntface, i hope you wake up tomorrow with ovarian cancer.
Arent my wishes better? After all if mine come true we only see 3 people suffer. If theres comes true we see millions suffer.
What unimaginable unamerican folks we have on the far right.
February 28th, 2009 at 5:54 pmI believe these neo-cons should face a firing squad for treason……btw google santorum, just santorum and read the third hit down the list.

If you can’t answer the question, at least be man enough to admit it.
February 28th, 2009 at 6:13 pmSo many Dicks, so little time…
February 28th, 2009 at 6:16 pmI distinctly recall standing in front of the television and watching the first bombs fall in Iraq. I believed and continue to believe that this was in unnecessary, ill-advised war. At the time, the President and his administration led the nation to believe that American troops would be wecomed as liberators (reminiscent of the end of WWII), the fighting would be brief, and that putting Iraq to rights would result in commercial activity (mostly sales of oil) so bountiful that Iraq would have money to spare and would be able to repay the US for the expense of liberating their nation. Predictably (but sadly), things didn’t quite turn out this way.
February 28th, 2009 at 6:17 pmAs the first bombs fell, Mr. Architect, I prayed that Mr. Bush and his advisors had information and wisdom I lacked, that some good would come of the war, and that our country would continue to live up to our hoped-for image of promoting and defending liberty within our borders as in the world. As much as I believed and still believe this war was the wrong choice, I hoped for success. Why would I do this? Because failure would hurt my country. And it has.

The biggest white supremacist group in America? republicans. Just watch their barely concealed hatred when the name of Obama comes up. Dangerous and delusional, like their just kicked out boss. If they could see beyond their terribly short view, they’d be ashamed of themselves. Shamelessness is their hallmark.

February 28th, 2009 at 6:32 pmBack in the depression when people were starving, some of them were going through the garbage of restaurants. A few conservatives suggested that these people be made to work for the right to do so. Down deep conservatives are nice people, especially Rush Flemball. But unfortunately HELL won’t take them.

One would think that when a coward would make such a claim they would have some proof. Typical liberal troll.
February 28th, 2009 at 6:41 pm
You , an undying supporter of the biggest chickenshits ever crapped out , want to talk smack about “cowards” ?
Zip it , putz …….You have no game…….
February 28th, 2009 at 6:50 pmNo, Archie, when a coward like you makes claims, whether about fact or about others, we don’t expect you to back it up with proof.
It’s never happened before, and since we are members of the Reality-Based Community, we tend to make our judgments based on empirical evidence. Thus, we don’t expect a coward like you to provide proof of anything you say.
February 28th, 2009 at 6:52 pmThe Repulicans from the right, middle and left have not offered any alternative that addresses our needs. Only the need of their party and idealogy are of interest to them. Not what is best for America.
To hope someone fails, while offering no other alternative is just plain stupid, UNAMERICAN, and potentially very treacherous for their party’ viability.
If they have a better plan, present it and fight for it. Who knows, perhaps with the proper vetting, it just may be a better plan.
But enough of this idealogical crap when all you have to say is “I Hope He Fails” and offer nothing else that is reasonable, intelligent, and appropriate for the situation our country is in.

February 28th, 2009 at 7:12 pmYour qiote in 353 is this in Deusche:
Der Architekt hat ein Haus vom Stroh gebaut.
Sometimes I forget that we are all Americans, but when I listen to these haters, the likes of Bill O’Reilly,that fat-assed, pill-popping Rush Limbaugh, lil’ Annie Coulter, Pat Robertson and now Chuck Dobson, a most dangerous bigot that hides behind the Bible, I understand that America is not “for the people”, at least not all of us. And some rich lid-or delusional, brainwashed punk, asks why Dick Cheney is hated. Why are the greedy bastards on Wall Street (how about Thain and Lewis) hated and why did we sing “Na-na-na-na, hey, hey…good-bye” as Bush rode off into the sunset back under his rock in Texas. We, those that pay most of what America means, are sick of the absolute GREED displayed. How much richer can you get?! ASk Cheney if the extra millions really make a difference in his life style. Ask Bush. Well, I suppose carving up America helps when you’re rich. These “New Age” Republicans, these heartless people that proclaim a belief in a loving God, will one day stand alone. Maybe that time has come-let’s bury these self-serving little p*****!

February 28th, 2009 at 7:58 pmA recurring nightmare! What would have happened to Social Security if Bush and the Republicans had gained control of it? Some nightmare!!
February 28th, 2009 at 8:09 pmDear Architect,
The sooner you realize that you and your ilk have become marginalized and irrelevant, the better. This conversation is for grown folks. Go back to the kiddies table.
February 28th, 2009 at 8:23 pmArchitect you ignorant punk why dont you just go back to blowing syphilitic lepers on the docks for pocketchange and let the adults.
February 28th, 2009 at 8:26 pmThats let the adults talk. How did that happen?
February 28th, 2009 at 8:27 pmArchitect: Your user name is deceiving because it implies intelligence and based on your comments, you have none. The countries that have the current highest standard of living are all socialist, you moron. But you are so ethnocentric that you refuse to do any research or study on what is working in other countries, you’ll live or die by laissez faire economics. You believe in a dog eat dog world and only look after number 1. The only reason that humans existed was because they learned to live and hunt in packs, communal living. Try going by yourself to hunt ans a saber tooth tiger bears down on you. Liberals founded this country and all conservatives do is slow down progress and research. If we had listened to conservatives, we would still think the world was flat and be subjects of a British monarchy. You people are such a drag on progress, take your monolithic thinking and go to Idaho or Alaska and let the rest of us continue to evolve.
February 28th, 2009 at 8:48 pmClassy, olmar. You’re proof that neanderthals are not yet extinct. You are an embarrassment to humans everywhere.
February 28th, 2009 at 8:51 pmThe audacity of some people! They actually want affordable education and health care (remember United Health’s CEO and his $450,000,000.00 bonus package?)? You mean these people have dreams and aspirations, ideas of a better life? Good grief, what have we done? Education must be a bad thing because it’s allowed people to learn ‘how’ to think, and not ‘what to think. Long live Democracy and all is stands for!
February 28th, 2009 at 8:58 pmWhy is this news?
February 28th, 2009 at 9:01 pmIt’s like asking Smokey Bear what he thinks about forest fires.

February 28th, 2009 at 9:24 pmJohn Callahan, You are right. It is not news. Over the last eight years we have grown accustomed to these bigots spouting hatred and contempt. The aforesaid bunch have done nothing to bring honor to themselves or to our country. I guess we respond because it galls us to hear it again when the United States is in such dire circumstances and when we are grasping for a bit of hope.
February 28th, 2009 at 9:28 pmdespite the vile from the left on this sight, I am hoping President Obama does what he said he intended to do during the campaign. Sideline the haters and teardowners of this country from both sides of the aisle. The middle from both parties should form a new constructive party with men like Mr. Obama at its head. I think the left are going to be surprised and disappointed and the right shocked.
February 28th, 2009 at 10:41 pmI voted for McCain and after the catastrophe of the chimp being elected, I will sit back and watch America collapse all around me. There is no way someone who spends more when we’re broke is ever going to be able to “fix” our economy. Obama has to be the dumbest graduate of Harvard ever. Too bad if he didn’t take any business or economy classes.

March 1st, 2009 at 12:56 amRush Limbaugh exemplifies the self-serving, Machiavellian mindset of the far right. Now we see the extent of their self-importance and self-righteousness.
Limbaugh and his ilk are ignoring the fundamental reality that, with respect to the U.S. economy and our standing in the world, when the President succeeds, we all share in his success. When the President fails, his failure reflects on all Americans.
Limbaugh, Maykin, and other right-wing extremists would wish to see countless additional Americans lose their jobs, their retirement savings, and their homes, or witness more innocent lives lost at the hands of political extremists, merely so that they could sit back and gloat and the GOP would have a better chance of winning seats in Congress in the next 2 election cycles.

Will C A or someone else from his ‘Ditto-head Party’ tell us when this will be? Also, when will the muslims and OBL take over? When will a communist dictatorship come about under Obama?
March 1st, 2009 at 1:02 amWe need them to give us a time frame on these events so we can start collecting for “ditto-head rapture robes” for them. Hmm,would they fly away NOW? …Idiots!!
Spending could help if the money was spent on meaningful programs that would actually create permanent jobs rather than create more welfare packages such as Obama and his clan is currently doing. If he had a lick of sense he would work hard on bringing back the jobs we lost to China and India…
I’ll be glad when he gets booted out of office in 2012. There’s no way this incompetent leftist will be re-elected.

They really have no purpose in this administration or the next.
March 1st, 2009 at 2:03 amSantorum is justified in hoping that Obama fails if Obama does not seek prosecution against George W. Bush for hate crimes.
George W. Bush committed hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism (indicated at http://andrewyu-jenwang.blogspot.com/2008/11/george-w-bush-is-loony.html “George W. Bush did in fact commit innumerable hate crimes”).
Bush was absolute evil.
Bush is now like a fugitive from justice.
Bush is a psychological prisoner.
Bush has a lot to worry about.
Bush can technically be prosecuted for hate crimes at any time.
In any case, Bush will go down in history in infamy.

March 1st, 2009 at 4:13 amPresident Obama’s policies on defense, economics, health care, taxation, international relations, and morality are so wrong, and the results, if his policies are enacted with a complicit Congress, will be so devastating, that in 40 years, it’s likely you will have difficulty finding anyone who admits to voting for him. Spew all the vitriol you want now; time will tell.
March 1st, 2009 at 4:37 amHey let’s not get to excited. This new Prez told you exactly what he was gonna do if elected “Bring Change.” And that is what he and the Dems are doing. Within a year the United States will be a Socialist country simular to what you see in Venezuela. Banks, Auto industry, Big Oil, all large processed food manufacturing and of course media will be nationalized. And by then the House and Senate will be pushing to reverse the Constitutional admendment concerning “term limits,” ala, Hugo Chavez. Soon, anyone who opposes or speaks out against this administration will find it harder and harder to hold a job, bye gas, allowed to have kids in school. Already the Obama adminstration has eliminated school vouchers funding for Wash DC kids which has allowed them to go to private schools. Obama said he would bring change. Well he is bringing change. Get use to it. You ain’t seen nothing yet.
March 1st, 2009 at 6:54 amThe “Rush Gush” will get old and fast.
Most of the party are middle class folks, like myself, who can recall when one working parent homes were sustainable. When the average family had the ability to vacation & save money to boot.
Not so today.
Many of us are awakening to the assault on the middle class under the Republican rule of the past 28 years.
The “Gushers” like this joker are the front line soldiers in the war on the middle class.

March 1st, 2009 at 12:05 pmAs usual coolade drinkers take everything out of context.
March 1st, 2009 at 12:39 pmThe context is, “we hope Obama fails in his push to socialism”. Who cares though, drink up.
GOP Plan A: Do everything possible to sabotage the stimulus, while vociferously crying how bad it is and hoping it fails. They will then ride in on their white horses, rescuing America from the evil Democrats, gaining for themselves a majority and dominance in Congress and control of the White House for all time.
GOP Plan B when the stimulus succeeds: Vociferously crying as they spend the next 40 years wandering the wilderness, wondering what happened.
March 1st, 2009 at 1:46 pmYou brainwashed dem’s are the worst hypocrits that ever existed! It was you and your news media cronies that sabotaged (often outright traitors), lied, conspired, and much much worse from the day your precious Gore LOSSSTTTT his bid to be president. And even in that election, there were an estimated 395,000 who voted for Gore that were either DEAD, voted twice or created fake ballots and fake HANGING CHADs. Talk about hypocrits being covered with slime and crap screaming about someone else who has a dirty shoe because they stepped in some of your s%%%!
March 1st, 2009 at 3:00 pmAnd who among you are soooo clean?? You idiots are too blind to understand that THE CONTEXT WAS THAT HE, AND ALL NON-SOCIALISTS, HOPE THAT OBAMA’S AND THE PELOSI-REID CAMP EFFORTS TO CONVERT THE U.S. ECONOMY AND GOVERNMENT TO 100% SOCIALISM WILL FAAAAIIIILLLL! Can that be made ANY CLEARER??
March 1st, 2009 at 3:06 pmIt’s amusing really, you’ve spent 8 years hoping bush failed, now suddenly it’s un american to disagree with the President’s policies? I’m not rich, I’m barely middle class, and I’m a Republican. Obama’s policies will fail, they must fail, or we will have taken the final steps toward socialism. The stimulus package isn’t going to stimulate anythng but a prolonged recession, it’s economics 101. The only way out unfortunately is to let the market bottom and regroup. We are simply throwing good money after bad right now. Health care? The government can’t run anything effeciently and health care is no different. Hell, look at Medicare and multiply by 100. Obama’s agenda is to take from the supposed rich and give to the poor. There’s a name for that isn’t there? and it’s not Democracy. Do I hope Obama fails? Hell ya. Do I hope America succeeds? Double hell ya!!!

1) Your all full of hate.
2) Your all scared.
We Conservatives aren’t going anywhere. The country will need us to repair the damage you Liberal morons are causing.
Deal with it.
March 1st, 2009 at 5:03 pmDoes anyone believe that the Obama Plan will work? Just because he says so? You need to dig deeper behind the media propaganda.Even the CBO Congressional Budget Office report from 1-1-09 says it is not a good idea. Do you really believe 3-4 million jobs will result?
March 1st, 2009 at 5:15 pmGo back a few years ago and did you also beliveve it was right to invade Iraq…did you believe there was weapons of mass destruction…I for one did not believe this and wrote to the newspapers and my elected officials.Any one who opposed the war was painted as un American…99% of our elected officials were spineless and did not oppose Bush. So now you believe Obama….Go ahead and drink the kool aid and keep watching ESPN….ZZZZZ
Bush did a horrible job with the economy but to now double our national debt is not the way to fix it. Markets will correct themselves in time. No amount of fed $$ will correct any faster.All of us and our kids are just going to pay for this down the road in 10 years and the situation will even be more dire.
The US government was not created to take take care of you and me financially.
Mollyrambo57, looks like you have been under the influence of kool aid for too long. It is not a matter of IF Nobama fails, it is just matter of when. You can go back to rocking in your chair and sucking your thumb now.

March 1st, 2009 at 5:30 pmI’m sickened and saddened that our tax payer funded and elected are so full of desire for failure for our country. I didn’t always agree with our corporation’s CEO and managers, but we were employed to support their initiatives or we ended up out on the street. Too bad these guys haven’t tasted the bread from a bread line yet…but they will
