PoopStain: he should be distilling ideas coming out of the think tanks

Absolutely, the Hoover Institute and the Heritage Foundation should be given more chances to lead the Western World further into the depths of hell. That's the ticket!

Well said, ShiatStain!

uhhh... Ok.

This will be a fun thread.

/Yay for influential media elements trying actively to sabotage government action during national crisis for political gain.

We're actually pretty happy so far. I mean, I wanted to hear him say "Health Care is a right" by now, but I can jive with this so far.

The GOP is collapsing by their own doing and it's Obama's fault how? And would it really be a fault? The man should automatically serve 8 years for just that alone.

Anything that leads to the marginalization of the nutcase Republican whack-job far-right religious platform of the past decade or two is a GREAT thing.

Possibly one of the greatest political victories of our time.

That had to be the most awesome moment of the entire debacle. I think the only way it could have been topped would have been if Ann Coltour had defeated John Boehner in the annual CPAC breakdancing competition.

Yeah, we tried your way. It sucked. Now we are trying something different for a while. And if we suck, guess what? There are these things called elections.

Until then, disagree all you want, but shut the fark up if all you are going to do is make ridiculous claims and comparisons that you know have no basis in reality.

Trillion dollar pork bill that does little to stimulate anything in less than a month. Defiling our honored dead. Lowering himself to confront an entertainer. A new spending bill with over 8000 earmarks after he promised none. Multiple staffers unable to take cabinet positions because of past corruption.

And now we're in month two.

Just goes to show you experience really does matter.

Please. Both parties are the same. Democrats don't have Stalinist wet dreams and Republicans don't dream for a fascist utopia, or slavery. Whatever. The majority of people are in the middle. And only the people on both extremes are heard.

I'd take eight years of February 2009 over one more day of your hero G.W. Bush.

I'm willing to bet most Americans agree with me.

I doubt most Americans agree with making government bigger than it already is, higher taxes plus the highest spending ever, but you go on believing that a 53% victory is a mandate to destroy a nations economy.

Looks like the economy was good and destroyed well before January 2009.

But just keep crying like the babies you Republicans always reveal yourselves to be.

The party of cowardice and greed. It's a true joy to see them being mocked so openly by intelligent Americans these days.

Jesus, guys. I meant the "Obama's America" bit with some humor. It's not even my line; sort of a meme-in-making.

PoopStain: I wouldn't expect you to be educated about conservative movements since you're a partisan idiot (probably public schooled, to boot), so your complaints fall flat.

Goddamn, you've found me out. I'm sure your Phillips Academy education, followed up by a BS in Economics at Dartmouth and an MBA at Babson means you know far more than any human being alive.

I bow before you. It must be tough living in a van down by the river with such an amazing pedigree as yours. How ever do you do it?

There was a short period when the US didn't have party politics at the national level, it worked pretty well. Also we've had parties fall apart before and be replaced. Also had parties shift over time. If the GOP goes down the tubes, hardly be a unique event in US history.

The dittoheads are just as bad as the Marxists they claim to hate so much. Step out of line, and they'll viciously attack you for your lack of ideological purity. Steele pointed out that Rush wasn't any kind of leader and shouldn't be treated as such - which is true - but the dittoheads are so terrified that they'll attack anyone who tells it like it is and tries to change it.

No, that doesn't make much sense but people who are that afraid rarely think things through.

PoopStain: You, apparently, aren't that honest. And your opinion doesn't matter, because the RNC will not succeed or fail based on people like you. You are irrelevant. You always were, but you like to pretend that you matter now. You don't.

FARK: Where someone who chooses to call themself "PoopStain" can openly claim that someone else is irrelevant and be totally serious about it.

You of ALL people - especially after backing this war - have no room to EVER accuse ANYONE of defiling the dead.

I don't get Michael Steele. He says the intellectual honest thing about Rush Limbaugh, and then swallows whatever pride and backbone he had, and apologizes to Rush?

Rush Limbaugh has held some of the most racially insensitive, if not outright ugly racist views, and the "black" head of the RNC apologizes to him?

I honestly can't believe it. Have some back bone, if you are a man. Stand up to this bully! I may not support your party, but I certainly want to see this guy stand up for himself, and defend his man hood.

All this episode proves to me, Mr. Steele, is that you are just a figurehead token "me too." How can you look yourself in the mirror?

Wow, you really are one of the most clueless individuals I've ever come across on Fark. It's like you're incapable of seeing how incredibly stupid you sound. Must be a blind spot for you. It usually is, for partisan idiots.

PoopStain: When is the last time the DNC told Sean Penn to shut up?

Sean Penn has never demanded shiat from anyone in the DNC. And Sean Penn doesn't go out trying to rally millions of people with hype and hoopla on a daily radio program. Nor does he act like the party is his party and it should serve his ideals.

 
EdgeRunner 2009-03-07 04:26:45 AM  
Why are the Republicans and Democrats always fighting with one another? Are they all too stupid to recognize the true enemy? It's the damn Libertarians who screwed up the economy, escalated unemployment, and caused 99.7% of the current rise in global warming! (Estimate has a 99.7% margin of error.) If it wasn't for them, we'd have a flawless universal health care system, a perfectly balanced budget, and we'd all ride unicorns to work at the rainbow factory! I hate Libertarians SOOO much, I'm far too blinded by rage to provide any sources to back up my accusations!

/Sorry, I just figured the Libertarians might enjoy having at least ONE person blame them for all the country's ills. Usually no one ever thinks they're important enough to complain about.
//Cause honestly, they're not. Boy, are they lame!
