Well, once again I've been accused by a Republican neocon of a "tirade" in my less than 300-word opinion letter on the Republican's new "Limbau" dance, though he clearly drags the party down.
I know, I once was a Republican back when it had standards that actually made sense.
Duane, you are correct in that the 21st-century Republican's Oxycotin-fueled, arm-waving primary mouthpiece is an "entertainer;" I get a hoot from his antics when shown by Mr. Olberman, which is the only time I see, or hear your party's defacto low-ball leader.
Be that as it may, when he was accused of being "just an entertainer" by the RNC's "Everything I do or say is a plot" leader, as well as several other prominent Republicans, they tripped over each other in their rush to apologize to drug-lush Rush.
I have the Constitutionally-assured right to rave, scream and shout my objections and tirades, and I will continue to do so whether you like it or not!
Your Republican apology letter to the editor was twice the length of mine, yet I'm the one in a "tirade?"
There are other "entertainers" on the neocon/theocon former ascendant, now sadly descendent, Republican Party side, i.e. Bill Holier-than-thou incitement to murder O'Reilly, Glen Bi-Polar Beck, and basically the entire staff of the Fox Republican Apologist Noisework as they grasp for any slim excuse to excoriate anything one-angstrom to the left of extreme right in American 21st-century politics.
Unfortunately, they are the ones currently defining who is an acceptable Republican conservative.
As for "The Twist," I submit that the former, though still trying to be Vice President Dandy-Dancer Dick Cheney is by far the most accomplished performer of that particular dance.
The entire Republican neocon/theocon movement is twisting its logic and spinning its words while Cheney tries vainly to make newly progressive America believe that torture actually worked and saved "hundreds of thousands of American lives."
What? That's both stupid and idiotic, but there is a segment of the Republican extreme right that will accept it all as "gospel."
According to the latest Gallup poll, today's Republican Party is 89 percent white, a 63 percent preponderance of which claims to be "conservative."
That's not the way to gain new adherents or win future elections in today's rapidly changing American voter demographic; well, with the noted exception of Appalachia, the Ozarks and in the southeast Republican party turf.
