On one side they are supported by the Christian Right (aka Tea Party). They are people that claim to be religious, but sure as hell don't act like it when they treat the less fortunate like dogs. They are the ones that yell out things like "you hate America" because you disagree with them but then are the first to try and take someone else's rights away.


IE they say one thing then do the exact opposite as if the rules don't apply to them.

Then you have the other side of the Republicans.. The ones that try to claim they are fiscal conservatives that claim they want responsibility in govt spending and blame Democrats for everything wrong with the economy. Meanwhile they fail to react to Reagan or the two Bush's that led us down this path and fail to realize that the last 3 Democrats have all kept the national deficit under 40% increase while the last 3 Republicans have been over 60+%.

Any fool can easily see Republicans out spend the Democrats by a extremely large amount, yet will not accept that you have to actually "PAY" for that spending. These are people that claim they want govt responsibility but then act like a teenager girl with her first credit card from daddy.

See the truth is they don't care about govt responsibility on spending they just want low taxes for themselves and don't give a shit what happens later or who has to pay for it. Yet they run amok at the mouth bitching about the left's spending. Again any fool can look at the numbers and see who really spends the most.


IE again they say one thing then do the exact opposite as if the rules don't apply to them.

This is the problem with the Right.. They just can't seem to grasp reality and they will repeat the same mistakes in another 4 years offering up some other moronic choice for president.

The truly sad part was with an 11% approval rating the Right retains control of congress. One can only hope this election could be a wake up call and the House Republicans will actually do their fucking jobs, but reality means they will likely be just as useless as the last four years.

Anyone that actually thought Romney had a chance simply doesn't' face reality. The electoral voter pretty much showed what was going to happen on Nov 6th, weeks ago. You didn't need a crystal ball only a bit on common sense.
For a long time I have been saying that the biggest success the republican party has ever had is the their ability to repackage the same bullshit and sell it to the same people over and over again.

Whenever they are not in power they run their campaigns on lowering taxes, balancing the budget and reducing the size of the government yet they never deliver that. Bush may have actually lowered taxes, but he increased the size of the government and the debt by leaps and bounds and the rest of them end up raising taxes, spending a ton of money and growing the size of the government and they still repackage that bullshit again and run on it again and it works.

This election might have signaled that while that same shit will work on the base, the independents (which is the fasting growing group in the nation) aren't really buying it.
