I’m curious, I remember VRWC Drone saying something about how the republicans will do well in this term so long as they distance themselves from people like Lott and Boehner. Now that the right has basically realigned itself post-election to keep these chuckleheads in positions of power, whats your take? I ask because you do seem to be one of the more sane right-folk here, though thats not saying very much given the company.
The same guy who leads the New Main Street Singers?
He beat out the “not enough rednecks voted for us” guy. That’s odd. Is there still a whip position left?
Just an odd bit here, did anyone else see the US government has changed the word ‘Hungry’ to ‘low food security? So instead of 35 million Americans who face hunger issues, we have 35 million Americans with low food security.
I presume that press release was issued by the Ministry of Plenty.
The Republican minority leader is still a guy named Boner.
Outstanding, OW! Normally you’d have to go to an elementary school playground to find that level of wit. And you’re giving it to us for free, FREE!
As I noted previously, Lott, Boehner and Blunt are the wrong choice for leadership positions in the GOP, and just signal that the party has learned nothing from the recent drubbing they took. “We’ve struck an iceberg, Sir!” “Well then just pour on more steam and go to engines full!” Sigh. I’m very disappointed that they decided to go with these guys. The only hope I have is (and it’s an admittedly slim one) is that the men in question see the light at some point and change their behaviour and outlook on what the party is supposed to be. I’ll be watching them closely for the next 2 years, and if it’s still “business as usual” by 2008, then they can spend some time in the wilderness.
By the same token, I (and many other Americans, I expect) will be watching the Dem leadership to see if they truly do follow through on their promises for a cleaner, more ethical and more transparent (i.e. less pork) government, or if they prove to be no better than the GOP now that they’re the ones in power.
Dude, his name is Boner. I can’t help but to hit at that.
So the bar for the Dems is to be less corrupt than the GOP? Done.
Actually, Odub, his name is pronounced Bay-nor.
And seriously, you can do better. I’d rather see another Jessica Alba post than this kidstuff.
“Boner” works just fine for me.
It’s pronounced Frahnken-schteen!
Oh dear, dear.
Perhaps we should take our conservative friends up on those civility lessons they’ve been promising.
Speaking of schoolyard humor, I’m still agog over the fact that the four ranking Republicans are Bush, Dick, Boner and Blunt.
Methinks there’s some subliminal ’speaking to the constituents’ going on there…
[cue Bevis laughter]
huh..huh-huh…Boner!

No problem. Just don’t be surprised if we fail to take your writings seriously.

Unless you’ve got a time machine (and can show us the proof), you’re going to have to wait and see like the rest of us whether or not the Dems actually manage it.

Hey, everybody! Here’s a conservative who says he’s taking a “wait-and-see” approach on whether the Democratic Congress will be corrupt!
Say “Hi” to the Maytag repairman when you see him.

Thanks, Quaker. I’m gonna hang on to that post. Remember, despite the TV ads, the Maytag man does occasionally get service calls.
No problem. I’ve not seen many postings from conservatives that shared your reserve on the question.

While being “less corrupt than the other guy” might win arguments in the blogosphere, but I think the American people are expecting more than that from the Democrats. If not, in 2008 they might just believe some crazy claims from the GOP that now THEY can be less corrupt than the Dems.
You might want to raise the bar a little.
“You might want to raise the bar a little.”
No, that’s good enough. The Dems are less corrupt than the GOP. Then the Republicans aspire to be less corrupt than the Dems.
So on. Sounds like a good thing to me.

At this rate, we should have totally honest and clean government by 2028 or so.
Oh now, a right wing hack might disagree with me. I do declare, Mr. Beauregard!
Boner. Heh. Heh.

Conservatives aren’t normally known for their optimism.

Quit stealing frameone’s material!
Intentional irony, Quake?

Every chance I get.
You know what’s even funnier?
The last two GOP Senate candidates to concede were:
Burns
and Allen.
Say goodnight, Gracie!
