When one or more people conspire, its called a conspiracy. When one speculates about a conspiracy, its called theorizing.
My theory is that the republicans are conspiring to bring back the good ol' bush days, which they miss terribly. While most Americans would rather forget about the worst president in history, and consider his very name and memory distasteful, the people supporting mitt romney for president pine for those days and want to bring them back with everything that went with them.
Everything we hated about the bush years they want brought back. They want to repeat the whole process, beginning with hoisting an unqualified idiot onto the world stage, steal the election with trickery and bullying, and then wait for the terror attack.
The bush years were the most shameful in our history, the wars, the torture, the thousands of dead people, the major economic ripoffs, the absolute cowboy, jingoist, shoot first aim later foreign policy, the ignoring of the sick and the poor, the deliberate dismantling of our own civil rights, our education system, planned parenthood, and the romneyites want to bring it all roaring back.
They want chaos in the middle east, not peace and democracy, they want more oil and they want to ignore global warming and ignore other energy sources, they want to send more of our jobs overseas, and more of our sons and daughters into more wars, they want THEIRS and they want to leave us on our own out here. They want it all back, they want a return of the glorious days of bush jr.
Their candidate, mitt romney is quite possibly 10 times worse than bush which I never thought possible. The people behind romney are the same fuckers that did all the damage to our country during the bush years and this should scare the hell out of us all.
I hope more and more people are coming to the same conclusion, and can see the obvious dangerous conspirators and what they want to do to us all, and I hope they realize that its not a theory, but a fact. They want to finish the job they started when they stole the election in 2000.
They hide bush jr. now, they play hush up about the bush years and the bush atrocities and crimes, but their plan is the bush plan on crack, and we can't let them get away with it again.

(5,105 posts)thanks to Bush/Cheney policies. Or, the contents of their 401(K) accounts. Yet, they still buy into the bullshit. My dipshit bother in law has a "Bush-4 More Years" tag tacked up in his garage even though they barely managed to keep their house. A family friend lost their whole damn house and are living in their daughter's garage, still determined to keep th' eevil "democrat party" out of th' gubmint. Before long, it'll be "git yer gubmint hands off my medicare," etc.
They can't learn from the obvious, as long as their preachers, who easily make over $200,000/yr keep telling them that Jeebus is a republican. And, anyway, their reward is in heaven, with mansions, streets paved with gold, etc. Yeah, good luck pawning a brick of that yellow brick road to make your life better, dipshits. But, surely it's better to get everything when you're dead.

(11,464 posts)Jeb is not running in 2012.
My thoughts are the Bush's and the powers of people around them are happy Mitt is such a bad candidate, and the division in the party of the nuts on the far right(teapartylibertarian)
are not liked by more than 20% of the people.
No ct needed
They are politically doing what they can to insure Jeb is the nominee in 2016 against Hillary.
Bill Clinton knows he needs 100% of Obama's voters to all vote for Hillary in 2016. That is no conspiracy theory either
It's just a winner does what a loser won't, and Obama, the Bush's and Hillary & Bill are the best politicially atuned people out there. They (no matter how much one hates the Bush policies) are great players of politics.
So was Ted Kennedy and Jimmy Carter circa 2008, knowing a Jimmy Carter couldn't win, they got the 2008 Obama who could and did and will win in 2012.
The greatest need again, from the day after election is not to sit and brag to the right that they lost, but to insure Hillary (the strongest democrat for 2016) gets all the support and this time runs without challenge. (Let the challange be for who she picks for VP).
and make sure Jeb gets voted down. It will be a long and fierce battle, but that is what is going to be needed to defeat in 2016.
Were it to be 2012, Jeb never would get that opportunity, so why would he want Mitt to win?
And why would he announce two days ago, he was contracted to write a book, and the book is going to focus on breaking with the current party, and doing something about immigration.
Bush is not stupid(though they like folks to think they are). Jeb knows the repubs have lost every single minority group, and he plans on coming at that and changing it.
So beware in 2016, we must stick together and make sure Jeb is defeated in the general election of 2016.
And we need 12 years to take the supreme court back.
