Civil war on the right
Hello:
People like Sarah Palin, Ted Cruz, the Birthers, and the shut it down group, have been the TAIL wagging the dog. Up till now, the dog didn't seem to mind.
Now, it appears they DO mind, and they wanna break up. How's it gonna work out?

So because Palin made a remark that means they want to break up? I still say the more interesting part of that is the comments section, the lefties are waging a vicious war on a woman.

Hello Steve:

She may sway YOUR opinion, but she doesn't sway mine. Generally speaking, I make my political prognostications based on MY political acumen, and MINE alone. I don't need anybody else.
So, indulge me. I COULD be wrong.. After all, I was wrong once last year.

The old guard needs to retire or be primaried . They didn't mind the conservatives when they led them back to a majority in the House in 2010. What did they expect? that they wouldn't actually attempt to do what they campaigned for ?
That's not the way it works any more .The established elite ruling class doesn't always get it's way... just ask Evita.
They sound shrill in their condemnation of Cruz. They would never think of speaking that way to a Dem. Listen to McCain talk about a Dem... it's all "my friend ...my collegue.." Then he says Cruz is "wackadoodle " .
The nastier they get, the more it demonstrates how scared they are of the American people holding every elected official accountable. It's not surprising the Washington establishment pushes back. They have vested interest in the status quo . It's there where they thrive while pretending to be public servants .
If you don't think Palin has an impact ,then just look at NJ where Lonegan made a close race of the special Senate election in a state where the emperor ,and Lautenberg romped not long ago. Palin campaigned for him the weekend before the election ,and the poll #s started closing . She certainly did more for a NJ Republican candidate than Christie did (who went out of his way to ensure a win for Booker ) .
Like I said on another posting... the repubic establishment is way too content in losing a fight .

Hello again, tom:
You said, what I said.. So, how's it gonna play out? Primary's ONLY. That'll give you the House again, and MAYBE even the Senate, at the cost of the presidency FOREVER.

LOL, replacing one loony for another one ain't gonna move us forward, it will just make us hostages to crazy people. Replacing sane people with loony people ain't a solution either.
But not being a conservative or a loony, I just watch the free circus and its getting hard to tell the clowns from the loony's to be honest. But for sure I ain't buying Palin, or Cruze's version of the "American" people because they are LOONYS.
Most Americans are not. But there doesn't seem to be enough rational republicans to neutralize the loonys, but I doubt the younger republicans will be lead by the nose by the nut jobs. Bottom line, I expect more hollering and more loony behavior until true conservatives figure out how to govern responsibly and get the crazies to follow along.
The shutdown should have taught republicans to not let the loony's call the shots. Better get 'em under control in the primary. If they survive a general look out because that's when the trouble starts so abort them in the primary. I think you guys are wondering how.
HINT - You get what you pay for.

Not only do I envision my friend Tal bug-eyed and spittle drooling, I see veins popping out everywhere. It's like watching MSNBC.

Your envision needs revision, a simple enough adjustment. My daily routine has little time for being bug eyed, or to drool. But it's very amusing when you righties go nuts trying to convince sane pragmatic people that you aren't NUTS.

Ya know the villain in this, Sen Cruz, has been a gentleman throughout. What's the media's excuse? What's Democrats' excuse?
“Do you think Ted Cruz is a bit like the David Koresh of the Republican Party? He’s a bit like a character who believes himself to be anointed, believes himself to be a prophet, ignores everything and torches the place in the process,” Mr. Bashir said during his show.
Now see I find that amusing coming from the network that gets thrills over the Messiah, but it's just one more example of everyone from liberal media types to Democratic congress members and the White House itself likening the GOP to terrorists, accusing them of waging jihad and anarchy. Read the comments on ex's link, it's VICIOUS!
You may not like Cruz or his politics, but the incivility from the left is breathtaking and it is your side intentionally portraying the GOP as loony extremists. Enough already, we can disagree, we can mock each other's guys even, but enough of this liberal vitriol spewing from every corner.

The hypocrisy is striking. The very things you decry as incivilty are the exact things you do here every day!

Those are the same sentiments you righties spout here repeatedly about Obama. You guys are nuts if you don't see that.

No NK, you are part of the problem, sniping from the sidelines with unsubstantiated bullsh*t like this then whining when you get b*tch slapped back. Repeating your same lie over and over does not make it any more closer to the truth.

I wish he was better looking. He has that "lean and hungry look" Shakespeare wrote about. Wonder what he is hungry for.

That's some disconnect, trying to get our fiscal house in order and avoid the ill-conceived, ill-planned, disastrously executed health care travesty is "trying to destroy our lovely nation?' I think you have that all backwards.Who exactly is going to pay our debt and how?

Don't get all bug eyed and drool spittle and make those veins pop out. What part of throw rocks and they get thrown back have you yet to understand? You want civil, be civil, and that's what I will do. Until then, I suggest you duck when you chunk.
Play the tape of the last 5 years from you guys and save the civil thoughtful parts. WHA? There are no civil parts? Shocking, simply shocking!
> Insult has been self censored, NO drool, NO spittle, NO popping veins<
