GObP= Party of Crybabies

It’s time to call out a major Republican theme of how politics should be practiced in a democracy: the supposed right to be free from criticism. It may sell wonderfully inside the conservative closed-information loop, but it’s a nasty idea that sorts exceptionally badly with democratic politics.

In case you’re unfamiliar, the right to be free from criticism is the core idea behind what used to be complaints about “political correctness” and which have now morphed into the conviction that some accusations are too terrible to be made. See, for example, former Heritage immigration expert (or is that race-and-intelligence obsessive?) Jason Richwine. As he told conservative reporter Byron York:

The accusation of racism is one of the worst things that anyone can call you in public life … Once that word is out there, it’s very difficult to recover from it, even when it is completely untrue.

Its true that the R and their little lackeys just can't stand to be called what they really are.

Bob Dole, in a fux interview, said he thinks there should be a sign on the door of the national committee, "closed for repairs".

They're completely shattered and running around with their heads up their butts. Their refusal to see themselves for what they really are is a huge symptom of that.

There's a huge plus to that and we saw it in the last two general elections. Its looks like the next general will be a reenactment of that Clown Car Mess. And THAT is very good news for the country.

RW POSTERS WON'T BE ABLE TO DEBATE THIS SO THEY WILL ATTACK THE SOURCE AND INSULT THE POSTER.

 

[Katzndogz]

The downside is, there are so many troll threads, it's irritating to slog through them all to find a decent thread to discuss.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Bob Dole?

 

[tinydancer]

Bob Dole says Bob Dole believes Obama has a great golf game.

Oh that old winner for the Republicans...

 

[PredFan]

No one hates criticism more than the democrats, and no one tries harder to suppress criticism than they do.

Another in a long unbroken succession of failure threads by Luddy.

 

[tinydancer]

It also may be that the doubts are popping up in other ways. For example, at Rasmussen Reports we regularly ask voters which party they trust to deal with a range of issues including government ethics and corruption. Before the scandals broke, Democrats had an 8-point advantage on this particular issue. But there has been a 10-point swing, and the GOP now has a 2-point edge.

Among unaffiliated voters, Republicans enjoy a 23-point advantage on the ethics front. Before the controversies, it was a toss-up.

The Political Ground Is Shifting Under the President - Rasmussen Reports?

all very true

 

[Yurt]

perhaps luddley can explain how one person, who is not a representative, senator, nor holds any public office, represents the entire GOP.

i predict luddley will not explain because he is not interested in actual discussion.

 

[Luddly Neddite]

RW POSTERS WON'T BE ABLE TO DEBATE THIS SO THEY WILL ATTACK THE SOURCE AND INSULT THE POSTER.

The rw hacks are SO predictable.

 

[tjvh]

Scandals wreaking havoc on the White House, and the drones bring out Bob Dole??? The comedy writes itself.

You also cannot read. I debated, I debunked your post, and THEN I criticized you.

Dumbass.

Rassmussen? Forgive me if I do not believe his numbers.


Of the big polls followed by the Real Clear Politics website, Rasmussen also had significant misses:


Ohio -- Rasmussen: dead heat. Actual: Obama by 2.


Virginia -- Rasmussen: Romney +2. Actual: Obama by 3.


Iowa -- Rasmussen: Romney +1. Actual: Obama by 6.


Wisconsin -- Rasmussen: tie. Actual: Obama by 7.

Parsing polls: Nate Silver picks on target, Rasmussen not so much - Los Angeles Times


Colorado -- Rasmussen: Romney +3. Actual: Obama by 5.

still no discussion about the OP from luddly

yawn

That's why "cockaroaches" is such an apropos term for these RW guttersnipe up in Congress.

Just turn the lights on and watch them scurry and flee in all directions.

You'll see dems, in the form of rats, do the same thing.
