4. Radio CYA
I think the repugs realize that they are going to have their collective asses handed to them in the upcoming election. Romney has seen the writing on the wall and this is the reason for his abrupt exit. The radio retards are just trying set McCain up as their fall guy. Then after the election can say they lost because of the candidate and not because of the idiotic, archaic, inhumane, greedy, warmongering, dishonest, incompetent and racist policies of the party.

P.S. This is in no way a an exhaustive list. Please feel free to expand.

5. Abrams is good! He's got that Jon Stewart style, though a little
stinging.

6. If Coulter could, 4 months ago, say if women weren't allowed there'd be no more Democratic president
and now support Hillary, anything's possible.

7. I love how that doughy fuckstick can't wait to torture someone
If he even had to watch someone being tortured he'd probably wet himself.

10. LOL, exactly right. He said he'd be willing to torture someone, even to save Rachel Maddow.
Talk about sadistic delusions of grandeur. What a putz! :eyes:

11. This is all a coordinated strategy.
Edited on Sat Feb-09-08 03:04 PM by ryanmuegge
It's elaborate, sophisticated, and even brilliant. This is all just part of the branding of McCain as a "moderate." The public wants a "moderate" after 8 years of Bush, and the Republican pollsters know this, so they're having the people that are seen as the most extremist Bush cheerleaders (Limbaugh, Hannity, Colter, etc.) come out against McCain to reinforce his image as a "moderate." They're, once again, banking on, what they perceive as, the stupidity of the American public. They (the RNC) are hoping that they can get people who don't pay enough attention the election to know the candidates' policies to vote for McCain (who is clearly a pro-war, plutocratic, imperialist neo-con) as a protest vote against the war and economic inequality. Of course, the way they are doing this is through marketing McCain as a moderate maverick who, as Tucker Carlson falsely puts it, "likes to give Washington the finger."

Up is down. War is peace.
