The Mob Goes After Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC)

More on the mob attacks at town halls. This time they show they can be disrespectful and disrupting to just about everyone, even a Republican. Senator Lindsey Graham tries to hold a town hall in Greenville South Carolina but it is disrupted by the mob. 

What is the mob trying to accomplish? I am not sure but one thing has become clear. They are the lunatic's in today's politics. The sad part however is these lunatics are actually in control of the Republican Party. Now, the Democrats have lunatics too but they are clearly on the fringe of the party. The Republicans have turned the keys to the kingdom over to their lunatics made up of mad right wingers, racists, radical Christians and the militias / domestic terrorists. 

I wonder if the Democrats are just waiting to use all this film in the next elections. Remind the entire Country of the radical nature of the Republican Party. They will win big. While the mob has the "big mouth", the normal centrist Democrats have the majority votes. 

Republicans Looking for "Great White Hope" and Proud to Be A Terrorist

The Republicans are continuing to show their ugly side during this August recess and the mob meetings they are holding. Here are just a few items which are outlined by The Indianapolis Examiner:

Right Wing Terrorists (and proud to be them):

According to news reports, at a recent town hall meeting at Simpson University in Redding, Ca., 67-year-old Bert Stead rose and declared himself a “proud right-wing terrorist.” U.S. Rep. Wally Herger (R-Calif.) replied. "Amen, God bless you. There is a great American.”

Looking for the "Great White Hope" to fight President Obama:

U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins, a Kansas Republican, made a blatantly racist remark last week. Jenkins said the GOP was looking for a "great white hope" to challenge the Democrats and African American President Barack Obama.

Even Key Republicans are Identifying The Danger of Limbaugh and Cheney

This weekend the more moderates of the Republican party have identified the problem with the party. And, the problem is with the leaders (either real or de-facto) of the Republican party. The current appointed leader, Michael Steele is just a mouthpiece. Do I dare say they selected an African American just to say, "see, we can do it too" to the Democrats? Clearly he was not appointed to be the leader of the party.

That title goes to entertainers and nuts. The entertainers are Limbaugh and Hannity and the nuts are Cheney and Coulter. Even when you Google "leader of the Republican party" in the first two items (as of this writing) an article which comes back is a Wiki article on Rush Limbaugh. 

Now, mind you, it is OK by me if they choose to have Limbaugh as their leader. Hell, they chose "Joe the Plumber"  (you remember, the guy who said, "Back in the day, really, when people would talk about our military in a poor way, somebody would shoot ‘em. And there’d be nothing said about that,” - and the Republican's made him a leader) as their spokesperson on the campaign trail so at least Limbaugh is a step up. This is just great. It does not seem like a fair fight but it is the Republican nuts who have chosen this, not the left. 

This is why I left the Republican party many years ago and probably will not return. It is not a party of ideas. It is a party of ideologues. It is a party of people who would rather see the destruction of the United States than a competing idea win out in the marketplace of ideas. It is also the party of hypocrisy. The leaders of the "family values" party are all divorced, have been on drugs, and have gambling problems (Bill Bennett - Remember, The book of Virtues). Further, the leaders of the Republican "war" party are all people who were COWARDS when they were called to go to war. Ask Hannity, Coulter, Limbaugh and Cheney what they did when they were called to serve. It is one thing to be anti-war and not serve but a very different thing to be the lead drummer in sending others off to die while you refuse and cower like a baby in the fetal position when you are asked to serve. 

This is the Republican party of today. A bunch of entertainers, cowards, radicals, and nuts. This is the party which is trying to win back America. I say, keep on keepin on 'Pubs. You will ensure a massive (beyond super) majority next go around and you will be relegated to a late night joke.
