Stop Dicking Around

I don’t see one thing substantive in John’s criticism of Newt. All I see is emotion, culminating in put-down. Why do we insist on trashing our own? Do we have to agree with everything every one of them says - like the Dems agree with their stuffed shirts and empty skirts? No. But we also don’t have to trash them (the way Democrats trash us).

Non-Democrat Party hacks truly are an odd lot. We trash the likes of Limbaugh and Palin in public; then we turn on our radios and listen in secret. We disparage Palin. We say she’s “clearly unqualified”. Does that mean that Obama was qualified to lead our nation? Is Biden qualified? Pelosi? Reid? Why does the question of qualification never come up about Democrats? Is Al Franken qualified to be a U.S. senator? Is he even qualified to be a talk show host? Not by his ratings. So what’s the deal with Palin? Didn’t she run one of these 57 (sic) states, no less – and not into the ground, like some former governors (of CA, NY, VA and NJ)?

What are we really talking about? Electability? Would Michael Moore vote for a Palin? No. Would Sean Penn? Whoopi? Rachel? Clooney? No. No. No. No. Would The New York Times or the Huffington Post ever consider endorsing any Republican – no matter what he or she says? No.

So there you have it. Our candidates do not have to be acceptable to the libs. They have to be acceptable to us. I happen to believe that we still outnumber them despite the big noise they’re capable of generating. And I’m not the only one. Democrat lawmakers themselves are running for the hills. If they were confident, they’d stay and savor their advantage. Maybe all those so-called conservatives who are so quick to disparage our own should gracefully duck out and take a powder. Watch from the sidelines and keep their traps shut.

There’s more at stake here than party politics. Newt has it exactly right. America is in danger. It may already be too late. I happen to think not. But one thing is for damn sure; it soon will be too late if we don’t stop dicking around.
