As republican hopefuls continue to fall like pins in a bowling lane, it’s becoming increasing obvious that they have much greater systemic problems. It’s not Bachmann’s 23 kids or the fact that her husband can exorcise gayness that’s the problem. It’s the overall craziness of them all.
Huntsman sounds like a competent guy who could actually be president but the GOP can’t stand him because he’s too rational. Herm Cain looks like he’s about to break out with “Amazing Grace” after every question. Bill Krystol said it this way about the others:
“Rick Santorum and Mitt Romney—did provide respectable performances. But no front-runner in a presidential field has ever, we imagine, had as weak a showing as Rick Perry. It was close to a disqualifying two hours for him. It was close to a disqualifying two hours for him. And Mitt Romney remains, when all is said and done, a technocratic management consultant whose one term as governor produced Romneycare. He could rise to the occasion as president. Or not.”
He then uttered something progressives have been saying all along: “WE SOUND LIKE CRAZY PEOPLE!!!!”
Kosers, I’m sorry but that statement is just not breaking news—republicans have been crazy people for decades and this new version is even worse. Was it crazy to get attacked by one terrorist group in a country and attack a different dictator somewhere else? That’s crazy.
Was it wise for republican Medicare recipients to elect Slick Rick in Florida after he ripped off a katrillion dollars from of all places, um…Medicare? That’s crazy!!
Was it wise to disqualify every viable senate candidate in Nevada and choose Crazy Sharron Angle as your nominee? Yes, that’s crazy.
They don’t believe in global warming, green energy, minority rights, gay rights, corporate regulations, the EPA, Department of Education, public schools, clean air, stem cell research, women’s right to choose, Medicare, Social Security, college degrees, weight loss programs, protecting the environment, Hispanic people, black people, Muslim people, poor people, smart people and certainly not progressive people. That's crazy.
Bristol Palin represents them on celibacy while Bill O’reilly preaches their family values lies after getting busted for “choking his chicken” with that women. Glenn Beck saw visions of the great Caliphate after deciphering secret inscriptions in the 30-Rock building. No, I’m seriously not making this stuff up.
Newt wants to solve the deficit as soon as he finishes paying a cool mil to Tiffany’s and none of them see what’s wrong with a fat, drug-head named Limbaugh singing “Barack the Magic Negro.” Chris “Kristie Kremes” is a couple of doughnuts from 350-pounds and they are begging him to carry their message of personal responsibility.
They cheer when a man dies without insurance and they boo when a gay man is willing to die for their assurance. They brag on the bravery of Dick Cheney who was a five-time-deferment coward and they lament for the days of Reagan conservatism even though he raised taxes 11 times.
They believe Obama is dumb, Sarah is smart, Fox tells the truth and Rasmussen is the best pollster. Their heroes Beck, Hannity, Rove and Limbaugh are all college drop-outs who became famous talking on the radio.
The radio? Yes, they are still sitting around the radio listening at shock-jocks for sport. Their ears are tickled daily with outlandish claims—dipped in racial overtones.
The republican establishment has a right to be concerned but they created this ugly monster. Their vitriolic hatred for the brother in the White House has pulled them so far right; they are all at the point of no return. Their sane guys are considered weak RINOS and crazy people are truly in charge.
These new and improve good ole “crazy”family values republicans are truly..um, special?
