CPAC, the Conservative Political Action
Conference, was last week and it was highlighted by current wingnut
tard in chief Andrew Breitbart being dragged away by aides as he
screamed “animals” at Occupy protesters outside the DC Marriot.
Speakers inside the hall described Democrats, liberals, and President
Obama as racists, animals, radicals, freaks, and parasites, who were
stupid and arrogant. We use racial division, class warfare, religious
bigotry, and hate to divide the country creating a climate of fear.
Fascinating coming from those who say the Democrats are the name callers.
Fox News talking head and wingnut columnist Cal Thomas was down right effing ugly. After the Heritage’s Genevieve Wood played a quote of Rachel Maddow debunking the conservative argument on contraception Thomas said, “I’m glad that you played the Rachel Maddow clip because I think she is the best argument in favor of her parents using contraception. I would be all for that.” Thomas later apologized.
CPAC also marked the return to the national stage of Sarah Palin, but enough said on that subject.
One of those arrogant liberals, Katrina vanden Heuvel of The Nation, had a good quote today when talking about Obama's proposed budget and the GOP plan to attack it on MSNBC's Now with Alex Wagner. She said Social Security is not an entitlement but a right Americans pay for all their lives. Very true but I have never heard put quite like that before.
At the final GOP debate in Florida Rick Santorum, always my personal fav, insisted that he should be the nominee of the party because he'd caught on earlier than Newt or Willard to the global warming hoax. This as North America is in the middle of the driest winter in history. NASA recently updated its “Blue Marble” photo which was originally taken in 1972. In this new version North America is almost completely snow and cloud free, in the middle of January. I know it's a lot to ask but I pray to the political gods every night hoping Santorum will be the GOP nominee. I can only imagine how entertaining a debate between that man and President Obama would be.
I'll end this with a simple question. Does the GOP have any plan at all other than defeating President Obama in November? All else seems to take a back seat to that goal. The economy, health care, you, me, the country, the human race. Other than that they only care about corporations and the gilded barons that run them. Those barons that fill their pockets with dollars that come from the tax cuts they are given in return.
