We have GOT to get rid of John Boehner and his coterie of bootlicking sycophants. We need some people with some serious stones in Washington. Heard an interesting take today. The establishment GOP will go along with the Dems (on revamping O'Care by requiring policies be restored by the insurance companies) because they dislike the Tea Party more. Go figure.

    You need my help??? Damn. I thought I was the feeble-minded off-cousin in here. All this erudition was making me feel very inadequate, capable only of the occasional quip or jape. But never let it be said I wouldn't give my all for the cause. I'll start weighing in tonight after I get back from church.

        I'm having trouble with this left boob thing. The left one was always the one I liked best and the one to which I paid the most attention. If it was the right, it would be an Amazonian thing.

        She poked somebody in the butt with it. It must have been cold or that wouldn't have worked.

        No, Rich, if Al-Qaeda sent a patrol with boobs, you'd be useless. A boob patrol would be looking for them.

    Remember way back when we talked about political correctness in the gulch?
    
    identifying people who fundamentally disagree with your views as "haters" is politically correct.

  Well, the Democrats don't challenge their control of the Republican party, while the Tea Party does.

This is a BS apology for the Republican establishment.

The Republican establishment is progressive, just as is the Democrat establishment. This is why the two seem to cooperate against our best interests... because they do cooperate.

Within the Republican party you have conservatives, many of whom suffer from Stockholm Syndrome, in that they go along with the Republican establishment's agenda out of fear of the Democrat's agenda, not realizing the two are the same, but relating to their captors in the Republican party.

Fortunately, a small, but growing number of conservatives in the Republican party are beginning to realize what's going on, and are starting to assert themselves.

They are part of the problem. The Republican Establishment is a part of the ruling class that we have allowed to develop. They have no interest in what is best for the country or for their constituents. This is why they dislike the tea party so much. The tea party candidates have tried to actually do their job, as in represent their constituents and fight what's going on in our capitol. We have to start voting for individuals and voting out anyone with more than a few terms. If people weren't there for 10, 20, 30 years. they wouldn't be able to develop networks of power that allow them to do whatever they want. The reality is most people are too stupid to realize what's going on so we're pretty much screwed...

They are not suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, but...with Dems running around scared if the Republicans chant “Repeal, repeal, repeal” then befriend the Dems, the Dems will vote to repeal because they will be suffering from Stockholm Syndrome.:) First, you have to isolate and terrify someone before you befriend them. That’s how brainwashing works. It’s easy: let me at them!
