Neocon Fossil Bob Bennett (Squish-UT) Ditched

I would be tickled pink if we actually did, finally as a nation, show Washington that WE run this country, not them!

And as a nation that can't even decide the most simplest things do you think that we as a nation can come to a compromise? Because in this political climate, there is no room for compromise. The Republicans made sure of that when they even refused to sit down with the Democrats without major concessions on the part of the Dems without offering up anything themselves.
 
No, you see, we're already at the center and about to dip right. What that kind of crap does is moving Dems even more right because of the GOP going all out fringe, when they are supposed to just hold the ground they used to and see congress becoming theirs again, they are trying to not let it happen!

We are center???? Are you watching what is happening in Greece and in other countries that this gov is modeling 'our country' after? For Greece to straighten out its finances, IT HAS TO DROP THE GOV-RUN HEALTH CARE (because the gov can't control the costs).
We are leaning hard left, and it is hurting our: business startups, manufacturing, individual rights, our economy, and more. We have some far left groups writing our policies and we are no longer the 'proud' US (our congress and Pres will tell you how terrible this country is at the drop of a hat); we are weak and getting weaker every day this gov is in power.

Sorry, save your teabag nonsense for next meeting at pizza hut. Our books used to be somewhat balanced until we've got 'conservative' presidents for 12 years first and 'compasionate conservative' president for 8 years, somewhere later.

If you want to compare us to Greece, our economy isn't shrinking 3% a year, we do not have morons running the country anymore, and we finally get money saving health plan for US. If you want to be "proud" of US as in GOP running the country well fuck you moron.

What a fucking Dumbass...Guess Obama is one of those Compassionate Conservatives isn't he?

Educate yourself

:lol:

McConnell-Boehner strategy has guaranteed at least another six years of Dem majorities.
 
Like I said...it will make for an interesting November.

At what point does the GOP tell the Tea Party to go fuck themselves? They have a Tiger by the tail and are afraid to let go

The people that agree with the 'tea party' ideals are a majority in this country. It would be 'suicide' for a politician to slam the tea party ideals (unless ACORN is in your back pocket, and you don't have to worry about a legitimate vote).

Tea Party represents 25% of the country. The same 25% that thought George Bush was doing a great job, same 25% that loves Sarah Palin, same 25% that watches Glenn Beck religiously.

nope the tea party was started during bush due to his huge expansion of government, entitlements, and budget. most sane people dislike palin as well
 
Nazism was fascism. Hitler abused the name socialism but prosecuted every leftist in Germany...

Because they were competition to his strong man power. Their goals were essentially the same, except socialists wanted to be Hitler. There can be only one strongman at the top. That's why Trotsky had to die.
 
The GOP will never, ever return to majority for very long without Republicans with common sense who recognize that COMPROMISE is an absolute requirement. Even the founding fathers knew that.

Compromise????!!!! Are you fucking kidding me? The Republicans already know what compromise is....and in case you forgot...the only Democrat who used to compromise with Republicans over major issues is DEAD. And if you need a reminder on how the Democrats "compromised" see the healthcare bill and how they corrupted the whole process of government then rammed a law down the throats of the MAJORITY of Americans. I'm sure the founding fathers would be real proud of Reid and Pelosi....right before they were taken out behind the White House and tarred and feathered.

If only pigs could fly...

Record-Breaking Republican Obstructionism
Cloture-vote-chart-full-0528.gif


Republican obstructionism is preventing the vast majority of legislation from moving forward and is thwarting the will of the American people.
File under "about goddamn time".

Shoulda started this economic obstructionism in 2004.
 
Its supposed to be a bad year for incumbents. Its about time we got rid of the whores and put in someone who can run the country like its supposed to be run.
If you look at it who's involved in scandals and other hinky behavior, it always seems to be those with 12 years in office or more. A good indication we need congressional term limits right there.

Are you implying Bob Bennett was involved in "hinky" behavior? He's a tad long in the tooth, don't you think? Although both party members aren't above "hinky" behavior, I hope you're not suggesting that Republicans, even younger ones, are pure. Here's my brief recollection of recent scandals.

John Ensign
Larry Craig
Mark Foley
David Vitter
Jim Gibons
Don Sherwood
And the GOP's political savior!! Newt Gingrich
hinky, not kinky.

Like Chris Dodd (Countrywide), Bawny Fwank (gay prostitution out of home), William Jefferson (bribes in freezer) Harry Reid (Suspicious land deals), Nancy Pelosi (special tax breaks for tuna canneries in district)

Bull. Several Democrats have resigned simply because they're sick of Republican lies, and see no chance of the GOP ever returning to its roots.

No, seriously? You actually believe that shit? This is tantamount to a little kid saying "Well if you're going to lie about me, I'm just not going to run things anymore!"

Oh mergatroid, that's fucking stupid.
 
SALT LAKE CITY – Republican Sen. Bob Bennett was thrown out of office Saturday by delegates at the Utah GOP convention in what represents a stunning defeat for a once-popular three-term incumbent who fell victim to a growing conservative movement nationwide.

Bennett's failure to make it into Utah's GOP primary — let alone win his party's nomination — makes him the first congressional incumbent to be ousted this year and demonstrates the difficult challenges candidates are facing from the right in 2010.

<snip>

Bennett has been under fire for the past year for voting for a Wall Street bailout, co-sponsoring a bipartisan bill mandating health insurance coverage and for aggressively pursuing earmarks for his state.

Lee and Bridgewater pledged to be more fiscally conservative than Bennett, who was targeted for defeat by the Washington-based anti-tax group Club for Growth.

And so the purge begins.

Uh, Big Fitz, you are confusing the strong man with another strong man.
 
When the Bennetts are being purged by the conloons in Utah, can the rest of the national conloons be far behind? Such behavior, although I applaud a neo-con being unseated, if it attempts to seat conloons after the disastrous Bush years through 2006, will only drive the GOP into the wilderness. The conloons still do not grasp that the mainstream of America despises them.

Oh that's right, you can't see the similarities cause you're too in love with socialism. Tends to hide fascism behind it. Bad viewing angle compared to the rest of us on the other side of the spectrum.

BigFitz is blathering. He confuses Hitler with Stalin. Trotsky was killed by Stalin's boys. Get your story right, son. Focus, stay focused.
