...Babyface Christopath Abramoff explains to the Android Sent From The Future To Destroy America that Donald Trump is really Super Jesus and Republicanism should be our official state religion.
And now, just for fun, for those of you who have not accepted the new establishment media dictate that history began in 2016, I invite you to take a quick trip with me back to April of 2013. To an IntelligenceSquared debate on the proposition that "The GOP Must Seize the Center or Die" between Mickey Edwards and David Brooks (for the proposition) and Laura Ingraham and Ralph Reed (against the proposition.)Up next: @ralphreed. His new book is out: https://t.co/xkTVAWszTk— Hugh Hewitt (@hughhewitt) June 9, 2020
Back when Brooks and Edwards and Babyface Christopath Abramoff and Eva Braun-Nose were all such very good friends. All Children of Reagan -- brothers and sisters of the movement and Conservatives 4 Life.
It was a long "debate" among these unsavory types and there is no reason in the world why you should watch it.
After all, that's why I'm here :-)
And my biggest takeaway then and now is that every one of these four leading Conservatives all knew damn well who really makes up the base of the Conservative Movement and the GOP.
Yes, it turns out the Movement's rank and file really are exactly the same wretched hive of scum and villainy that Liberals have been telling you about for decades and the Brain Caste of the Conservative movement has known it and been cool with it all along.. Sure they all danced around the ugly truth for awhile, but eventually Mickey Edwards got to the point:

The Republican Party we have today could disappear and be replaced by a range of its little subsets, all these other -- a Christian right party, a libertarian party, a no government, no tax party, a gun owner's party, a no gays and no immigrants party, each one with its own small niche of true believers...
And that is the conversation we will never had and never will have at the national level.
That is the reason that it doesn't matter how many tea leaves and goat entrails and academic papers David Brooks pores excitedly over to predict his Awesome Whig Tomorrow.
Because you can't make bricks without straw, and you can't make a political movement without people. And the plain, cold, ugly truth of the matter is that the Right is really nothing but the sum of its parts.
And all of its parts are grotesque.

WTF!!?! Until I saw your post I had no idea this "book" existed. But now that I do....yep, makes perfect sense. An appreciation of one ignorant racist con man from another.
And Hugh Hewitt is gonna have him on TV. Yep, makes perfect sense.
Burn the entire Republican Party to the ground and run over the greasy ashes with a train. Silver bullet, wooden stake. Whatever it takes.
These fking people...
You flatter yourself that Ricky Wilson would be stealing stuff from a poorly written second rate blog with a hand full of readers. Hilarious!!
I firmly believe we are just weeks away from major violence of the gun kind, official and freelance. I would be overjoyed to be proven wrong. The thing is that bothsidersism will die when there is blood. Finally. Although the number of supporters of blood will astound everyone. Then the bothsiders who don't fall in line will discover what has always been true. That they don't mean a thing.
If it begins no institution can or will stop it. Especially the 'mainstream media'.
Yeah, we know and Ralphie Reed and his criminal collaborators point out that if the republican party starts representing people. Even voters who vote republican. They will flee the GOP.
You need to say one thing to them and do something else that favors your elite circle of wealthy pals. Otherwise the GOP base will think the GOP is socialist.
GOP leadership must find and select individuals and groups of people that can be pointed to and shout out hate at and the base will follow.
The right wing cult clergy understand the power of hate and Huey Lewis and the News know the power of Love.
So for Ralphie, you need to hate Huey Lewis.
These folks are the paid accountants to cheat on the tax forms for the rich.
Ralph Reed eh? You triggered a memory of the Jack Abramoff scandal. https://billmoyers.com/segment/ralph-reed-from-purgatory-to-power/
Slightly off-topic, but wow. Next time somebody doubts my theory that Donald Trump had no intention of winning and did not at all want to be president, I'm just going to show them the cover of that book. And presumably, being dedicated minions of Dear Leader, they looked for a shot that made him look good.
