Comments on: Is The Party Over For Republicans?

The Nation: In The Past Two Years, The GOP's Dream Of A Permanent Majority Has Become A Nightmare

[dgal878]

The Bush legacy will live on through this failure. I can''t believe our country must endure 4 more years of bad presidency, and I am dismayed that the people are going to put Obama in office. I hate every thing about OBAMA and predict that many from that side that don''t like him will go to the other side and vote for McCain. I just don''t know if it will be enough to make a difference.

Obama Seeks Red Cross Help On War Crime Charges Against Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld

By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers (Traduccisn al Espaqol abajo)

Russian Foreign Ministry reports to President Medvedev are stating today
that US Presidential candidate Barack Obama has sent one of his top aides
named Valerie Jarrett to meet with officials from the International
Committee of the Red Cross, in Geneva, Switzerland, to what is being
described in these reports as the %u2018preliminary stage%u2019 to begin actions in
the International Court of Justice charging the present United States
President, Vice President and former US Defense Secretary with war crimes.

As we had previously written about in our October 15, 2005 report, the
International Committee of the Red Cross opened in that year a War Crimes
Portfolio alleging that President Bush, Vice President Cheney and Defense
Secretary Rumsfeld, and other US Officials, were in violation of Articles 3
and 4 of the Geneva Convention and could be tried for Crimes Against
Humanity.

jjp735i,

that is one of their many problems.

[clestes-2009]

delfmast,

what are on? Your ramblings make no sense. Is there a an actual complete thought here or just bits and pieces of a lot of different thoughts all tumbled together?

[delfmast]

editorialstaff net notes: The defeatocrats are totally committed to snatching defeat from the jaws of Pax American Coalition''s victory in the Levant. Their suicidal drive to prevent PAC forces birthing a nation with a bare chance at demonstrating minimal liberty for all the peoples of the Levant is the "step too far". It is a deadly insult, to untold millions of America''s veteran''s, their survivors, widows, orphans, friends, families and to millions of Americans who stop vets in the street, to thank them for our personal liberty, and for the vet''s service to freedom. HilBilBama will teach America''s majority of conservatives, in all parties, to despise their "win at all costs" political pandering, posturing, vote buying and murderously effective disloyal speech encouraging our deadly enemies, and costing service member''s lives, limbs, and future tours in ever more deadly combat zones. When you promise terrorists that holding out for regime change will guarantee their victory over modernization, you kill Pax American Coalition service members. In this, or a few election cycles, the defeatocrats will self destruct, as the Global War on Terror increases due to their treasonous speech, and appeasement. The longer HilBilBama lecture us, killing our service members for political gains, and destroying the economy, the longer the permanent defeatocrat minority will endure. HilBilBama will unify conservatives far better than the stupid old men who run the GOP ever could.

Hey I''m not fat I''m big boned!

They have brought ruin on to themselves and ruin on to untold millions of innocents. For that alone, they should be banished from power forever instead of decades. It will take at least a decade to try and repair their tattered image and get the taste of shrub out of their mouth!

Only he will still be around to remind everyone of what they would like to forget!!

[clestes-2009]

Is this symptomatic of the republican party or did shrub just attract these highly educated, but still hugely stupid people, cause there were plenty of less educated people who clearly saw invading Iraq as a disaster coming.

When General Eric Shinski, a man who had experience, clearly and loudly stated that the US did not have enough troops and the end result would be a secular/insurgent quagmire if the invasion was continued as it was then currently planned, and for this attempt to stop the coming disaster, he was forced into retirement.

The people behind this shameful act are the republican''s best and brightest??

If that is the case, then the republican party, as it is now, is doomed because the majority of Americans are smarter than their best and brightest and don''t want to be associated with them. Who would??

And the best the republican party can do is dig up a talking fossil, who thinks the same way these best and brightest do, when it has clearly been demonstrated that their thinking only leads to disaster on every front. And they think more of the same is going to work??

Come Nov, the rep party will lose both houses of Congress, maybe even to the point of being unable to muster a veto threat, and they lost the whitehouse a year ago when all they could find to run was "whitebread Bushies" and stonewalled the only candidate who might have had a chance.

[clestes-2009]

This outcome was predicted by anyone who had any common sense and a BASIC understanding of middle east history, something easily picked up in reading about world history and not that hard to do.

It is unfathomable to me that in the entire shrub administration there was not NOT ONE person in power who saw this result coming. These people were suppose to be the best and brightest of the republican party and they pursued a foreign policy that any well-read layman could tell was just plain STUPID and a domestic policy calculated to estranged the middle class!

What does that say about the republican''s best and brightest?? That no matter how high the IQ or what Ivy league school diplomas hang on the wall, they are still more ignorant than your average American who reads a little world history and has an understanding of cause and effect??

[wogerwabbit]

Listen! Do you hear her? The fat lady''s warming up!

[jon2012-2009]

"...Then again, voters have witnessed this before--Bush ran as a ''compassionate conservative'' in 2000. While McCain promises to be different, he has also suggested the government should do little to assist families engulfed by the subprime mortgage crisis."

Ignore when McCain promises to be anything. Just look at his consistent record as a Republican stalwart allied with Bush policies. He''s been around long enough to make up your mind about him based on that. At his age, doubtful he can change his spots. (And I don''t mean his liver spots.)

[jjp735i]

The Republican Party problem is that they have two kinds of conservatives, the fiscal conservative and the social conservative. The fiscal conservative should have tried to rein in spending, but failed badly. The social conservative on the other hand tried to force people into living a certian life style that they, the social conservative, had in mind. The problem there is those same social conservatives failed to live that very same life style they wanted others to live.

Split the party. Even the fiscal conservatives in the White House grew tired of the social conservatives, calling them nuts and worse, even as they courted them for power. Religion and politics do not mix. The Taliban makes a great example. We are a country of many different types of religion and and to make it even harder, many different types of Christian groups. Each pushing for changes that only they want. The Christian groups even attack each other for crying out loud. The Catholic Church is this or that, the Evangelicals are this or that.

People scream when you compare the social conservatives as Nazi or Taliban minded, but do come across that way. Every one is a sinner but them.

Split the Republican Party or at least try to be clear when referring to a conservative. Be clear just what kind of conservative you are. Maybe you will do better with votes.

johnny343sc said: "The main things really affecting voters now are the economy and the Iraq War. Iraq has a positive end in sight"

Republicans have built a house of cards out of our economy the last 8 years, using debt in the walls. Now those walls are crumbling, leaving only the debt. Minor? Temporary? We''re going to be paying for Republican mismanagement of our debt for decades!

Any fool can buy a good economy with a credit card. But once the card maxes out and Republicans hand the card over to ordinary Americans and ask them to pay the bill (while they, like Halliburton, skip the country), well, its a little much to ask people to vote for them, isn''t it?

Iraq has a positive end in sight? That''s just too funny for rebuttal.

[johnny343sc]

This article assumes way too much and way overstates the problems facing America today.

The main things really affecting voters now are the economy and the Iraq War. Iraq has a positive end in sight (albeit not a quick one as most would like) and the economy is going through its usual "high-low period". You can''t have a good economy all of the time.

Face it: The world is having problems now because of higher prices for oil we buy from rogue nations. Talking to these nations amounts to sucking-up to them. We need to reduce our dependence on foreign oil. If there is money in doing so, then companies will follow where the money is. This will ease the strain on the oil supply. How about curbing America''s wastefulnesss? Throwaway plastics consume oil like our cars do. Anyone ever try making recycling mandatory? How about fuel efficiency mandatory for vehicles?

Things will be just fine in the long run. C''mon, stop "jumping-off-the-deep-end". Things could be way worse. We could let our guard down and get attacked a-la 9/11, but believe you me...

...the terrorists are just waiting for a President Barry Hussein to let the US focus internally and forget about foreign policy to help make -that- a possibility, just like Bill Clinton did in the 1990s.

;)

[superdem]

If Republican policies worked, America should be in great shape after nearly 8 years of total Republican rule. Are we in great shape ? We''re completely falling apart, corruption is rampant, we''re stuck in two unwinnable wars, basic prices are going through the roof, jobs are disappearing, nothing has been done to solve any of America''s problems. Conservatism means "NEVER CHANGE" - they haven''t changed from plantation and robber baron mentality, that just doesn''t work. We''re still talking about "lessening dependence on foreign oil" - a refrain from the Carter presidency. What do you expect when Reagan took down Carter''s solar panels from the White House and encouraged everyone to buy SUVs - we''re the stupidest people on earth to have embraced that, but the Republicans led us to ruin, no doubt about that. Nothing like endless foreign wars, and $5 gasoline to focus the mind.

[joyous88]

Obama is the only choice we have,

and he will make a great president

if you like bush (you must be insane) vote McSame

[bluestardad]

REPIGS ARE DONE!

THEY LIED AMERICA INTO A WAR

EVEN NOW VOTED AGAINST A NEW AND IMPROVED GI BILL!

FOR THE VERY SOLDIERS THEY HAVE FORCED TO RETURN TO WAR ZONES 4 TO 6 TIMES!

YES AMERICA WENT TO WAR WITH THE GOVERNMENT WE HAVE! BUT NOW AMERICA IS CHANGING ITS GOVERNMENT AND FOR NOW IS TRYING TO DO SO WITHIN THE EXSISTING SYSTEM!

WAR CRIMES TRIALS NEED TO BE FILED AGAINST THOSE WHO LIED AMERICA INTO THIS WAR COSTING THOUSANDS OF LIVES AND TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS!

AMERICA STAND UP OR SHUT UP!

[perceptions5]

The problem for Obama is that he''s a product of the most corrupt liberal institution in America, our mostly liberal MSM wolfpack press. And yes the Washington Post along with Newsweek, Time, NYTimes, CNN, and NBC/MSNBC are the "alpha" members of this "liberal pack".

It''s really ashame that it took a comedy show, Saturday Night Live, to expose this sorry liberal corrupt bias in what is suppose to be a "free press", not a "free left-wing press".

Americans want a president that''s going to "solve" their problems.

Obama has "no record" of accomplishments, none.

His old district, the south-side of Chicago, is STILL an area of massive poverty and hopelessness.

The National Guard was recently sent to this part of the city due to dozens of shooting and killings. (sorry our corrupt liberal wolfpack press didn''t have space to print that for all Americans).

Bottom line is Obama will lose in November because HIS pal and pastor, Rev. Wright scared the HELL out of White Democrats. Which is WHY Obama hasn''t won the white democrat vote since February except for a small majority in the Oregon vote.

Obama- Say NO to a Jimmy Carter second term

[joyous88]

if the party is not over for this group of anti american criminals, it should be.

When you do not support the Constitution of the United States you are ANTI-American,

the republicon party is ANTI_American,

and conservatives, they are just greed driven criminals

[grumpas]

I have more character and ethic''s than to vote Republican!!!! Anyone who does vote for them are showing just how little moral fiber they do have! Because they are voting for more unbridled corruption, bigotry and greed! If that''s what you want stop complaining about the mess in Washington! Because it''s what you have put in there.
