The exit polls apparently (according to Rush Limbaugh) showed that by an 11% margin people identified the Republicans as the party of Big Government.

Of course, perception lags reality - they've been the Big Government Party for a while now. But, people are catching on.

Goddammed Big Government Conservatives.

Try it on. It works.

Hate to be a downer dimbfuck, but your Ds have us on the verge of what could be a 10 year nightmare unfolding, that is even now beginning. let's get real, we are at precipice of one of America's darkest times with only darkness on the horizon. by the time HRC gets through with this country in 2012 or god forbid 2016, it will be fiscally, militarily, and morally bankruptted with an economy that will be destroyed by the policies of socialist/mao style communist legislative initiative. our cities will have their streets streaming with the blood of aborted babies by mad doctors producing stem cells under the canard of "science".

Get ready to have your pcoket book raped and your ass fucked by these amoral degenerates because the crap is really going to hit the fans now. and all that presupposes that al qaeda and the rest of the Arab nation doesn't launch a successful direct assualt on us again and/or we don't just capitulate in advance like Spain and France.

incoming!

Agreed. Of course, it would have been reasonable for him to do so.

Now, one could assume that the leader of Hezbollah doesn't realize that the vast majority of Americans -- especially of actual voters -- supported Israel in the recent war. And, one could assume that the leader of Hezbollah thinks that Americans are actually inclined to do what a terrorist leader, supported by Iran, tells them to do. From that, one would conclude that the leader of Hezbollah likes the Dems.

Or, one could accept a little reality. And, one could accept that the leader of Hezbollah -- while being a disgusting fucking murdering terrorist piece of shit -- is not stupid. And, one could acknowledge that Hezbollah is a lot stronger now than it was 6 years ago, when Bush came to power. And one could acknowledge that Hezbollah's patron, Iran, is a lot stronger than it was before Bush invaded Iraq.

From that, one could conclude that the leader of Hezbollah made this call in the hopes that people like you would pick it up, and would make the argument that a vote for Dems was a vote for Hezbollah, and people would listen to you and vote for another few years of, ahem, staying the course.

Fortunately, American voters aren't so stupid either.

I'd believe you more if actual terrorist sympathizers in your party didn't get elected to office:

The first Muslim elected to the United States Congress is a Democrat from Minneapolis with ties to an Islamic group that supports terrorism and a radical cult whose leader says God will destroy the entire white race and establish a paradise nation ruled by blacks.

Minnesota’s new Representative in the House, Keith Ellison, was endorsed and partly financed by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a massive U.S.-based organization that avidly defends Osama bin Laden and other militant Islamic terrorists and considers U.S. action against terrorists anti-Islamic. In fact, the group demanded the removal of a Los Angeles billboard describing bin Laden as “the sworn enemy” because it was “offensive to Muslims.”

Ellison, who converted to Islam as a 19-year-old college student, also has strong ties to the Nation of Islam, the black cult led by renowned anti-Christian and anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan. The group’s doctrine states that black people created white people in a genetic experiment 6,000 years ago and that “Judgment Day” means that the Gods will destroy the entire white race (devils) and establish a paradise nation ruled forever by blacks.

(1) How does a candidate control who endorses him/her? (2) How much $$ was it -- though, whatever it was, if the group is actually that tied, he should have returned it. But I'm curious how much.

WTF are "ties" versus "strong ties"?

Where is your quote from?

Bush admits he lied. But since it was to fool voters, and not about blowjobs, apparently it was OK.

Oh Jesus Christ.

A political lie like that (i.e. about cabinet plans) is somehow wrong?? Can't take that one seriously Ty.

So, you probably tell your wife when the dress does make her look fat, and tell your neighbor what you really think of the cookies she sent over? Or, do you tell opposing counsel the truth about all the weaknesses you see in your case?

P.S. Isn't the worst part that you guys have had it all -- controlled everything -- for 6 years, and the Congress before that, and you've just plain sucked balls?

Corruption, big government spending, and incompetence combined with arrogance led to this day. Not exactly what they envisioned when formulating the Contract on America, was it?

I try to put myself in a position where I don't have to lie. Bush was trying to fool people. If you don't want to get caught, don't try that shit. If you are caught, you're busted.

I am out of agreement with you on this.

• The public probably wanted Bush to reach out to and listen more to critics. They wanted him to break-out of the "stay the course" stalemate in his Iraq policy, which had been embodied by Rumsfeld. They wanted him to acknowledge, really acknowledge in a serious way, their deep disatisfaction with the course of things in Iraq. And lo and behold, about 18 hours after the election, he is doing all of things. American democracy is a marvelous thing.

  Santorum lost by 18 points. Casey won nearly 60 percent of the vote. Casey ran exactly the right race to win a landslide.

Corruption? BS. That's all over the map - hardly confined to the GOP (see Reid, Menendez, to name just 2)

Big Government Spending? Completely. "Compassionate Conservatism" was truly an oxymoron.

Incompetence? I disagree. No one would have done a good job with Katrina or Iraq

Arrogance? Perhaps. It's the problem of having all 3 branches.

Contract with America? This Admin was never a party to it. And there's the true rub and why conservatives ditched them this year.

PS - speaking of bitter, wait until those 6 years of filibusters comes back to haunt Majority Leader Reid.

I never said it was just the GOP, but it must chafe the political types to fight so hard to take power, and then become what you thought you hated.

True that it is tough to be bold with a 1 vote majority in the Senate. But what was that about a nucular option?
