And they have not come clean with Bush and Cheney. <br />There is no help, no learning from mistakes (Big ones). If they cannot and will not admit their mistakes. They shall repeat them.<br /><br />If the addict cannot admit his addiction, he cannot have a problem.<br /><br />As I see the GOP, they haven't admitted anything afoul with 8 years of Bush. They know it deep down, but they cannot admit it. So they blame they robotically blame the liberal. Just like when confronted with a Ragan fact. He becomes Saint Ronnie who could do NO wrong.<br />They cannot see past Obama to look at their conservative majority malfeasance in Congress.<br />Obama is a evil dictator who uses less Executive Orders than many other Presidents. Yet, every GOP candidate has promised a ton of Executive Orders on Day one. <br />It doesn't exist in the conservative ideology.<br />This is how you got a Bush era brown shirt pointing at veterans and telling them how they hate America.<br />The thought of their lack of any service at all is completely absent.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Robthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15736678459663803707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-51053879900088128582016-01-25T17:02:53.900-06:002016-01-25T17:02:53.900-06:00Your description of conservative beliefs was more ...Your description of conservative beliefs was more about their hatred of Liberals than what they stay for. The Conservative belief system is entirely Orwelian. You see it in the names for their legislation, which are intended to describe the exact opposite of what the legislation is actually intended to do. The other Orwellian is that they are the party of freedom and liberty. In fact, what they mean by freedom is the complete dismantling of all financial, health, safety, environmental and any other regulation on business. We already just a bit of that under W and the corporate crooks, frauds and banksters almost destroyed the globa economy. The other freedom is total gun anarchy, of course. Everything they define as freedom would mean oppression for ordinary Americans, women and anyone not an Evangelical Christian. It's the embrace of the authoritarian, violent society of Jim Crow and wondering why no one outside of their 27% base what's anything to do with that.

We appeal to only cranky old white guys like me." Maybe change the Republican Party stance on key economic and social issues then, not real hard to figure, but that will in turn upset these same cranky old white guys.bobinskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01497109226598043772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-58798922700210308022016-01-25T14:55:00.931-06:002016-01-25T14:55:00.931-06:00What's the special secret sauce that is the ap...What's the special secret sauce that is the appeal of the Wasilla Hillbilly and the Talking Yam? I mean they are strangers to grammar and logic and facts, so how could people respond to their gibberish? Turns out somebody's already codified the rules on how to do it:<br /><br />Avoid abstract ideas - appeal to the emotions.<br />Constantly repeat just a few ideas. Use stereotyped phrases.<br />Give only one side of the argument.<br />Continuously criticize your opponents.<br />Pick out one special "enemy" for special vilification.<br /><br />It's called propaganda.<br />https://www.physics.smu.edu/pseudo/Propaganda/goebbels.htmlbowtiejackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03269786110593961195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-79767037014152222112016-01-25T13:36:07.251-06:002016-01-25T13:36:07.251-06:00Great work.

People know they're being screwed and they're don't like it.<br /><br />What is going on may be something like the 1934 Viva Villa! epic starring Wallace Beery as a very rough, uncouth, uncivilized version of Villa, not unlike the Talking Yam today.<br /><br />Belatedly, like the Mexican establishment then, the GOP has awakened to the fact that the situation they birthed and were responsible for has now delivered a political terrorist in their midst and they don't know what to do about him. <br /><br />But now the smart money, (like the German plutocrats in the 30's) feel they can "work" with "this guy" rather than "the asshole" and we know how that turned out last time. So plutocrat money funded both the Nazis then and the Tea Party now and both turned out to be racist nativists! What a surprise!
