Iran and the 2009 Nobel Peace laureate

I meant to add though that I do agree with your hopes of Vitter losing. The guy's a whoremonger and I believe his expected opponent is a Pro-Life Democrat.

Oh, never mind. When it goes their way, it's always "the American people" and how honorable the people of America are to people like dear Mr. Bottoms -- but if 2010 flips the GOP's way, it'll be the "American sheeple and their fascist masters" as his appellation.

We've just been through eight years of the worst leadership the country has ever had to suffer through. A presidency so poisonious to global relations that the world gives the incoming president a Nobel prize just for getting elected.

The Republican party is nothing more than a mean spirited, fiscally & managerially incompetent, short sighted group of bed wetting whiners resembling a cult more than a political movement.

You voted twice for an incompetent boob who nearly ran one war into utter failure to the tune of $1,000,000,000,000 tax payer dollars and the meter is still running. The second war, one of necessity and launched with near unanimous support has been going on longer than World War II and s such has nearly lost the support of the people despite the importance of the mission.

Forty million Americans are uninsured and those who are face loss of what little care they can get when they can get past the insurnace company's blatant moves to drop coverage at the slightest whim. Banks gouge them for enormous fees and tilt a system for debit cards to ensure maximum opportunities for additional fees.

Americans have been poised by their meat, lettuce, toys, and water as lax industry oversight has been loosened even further in blind adherence to an ideology of deregulation.

Agencies headed by moralistic ideologues spend millions going after television networks for displaying a breast while ignoring consolidation of industries left and right that drive up prices and reduce services with their main focus on such public necessities as identifying who is getting an abortion.

A new president sets about to change this insanity only to be met with a paranoid fantasy of death panels, internment camps, Gurkha assassins, and real crazies showing up to his speeches with pistols and rifles to the cheers of supposedly sane GOP politicians.

You had your chance to make "conservatism" work and nearly wrecked the country if not the world. The 49% of Americans are slaves to this cult of the GOP is not a surprise.

What will happen hopefully will be that the %2 swing voters will continue to see how stupid, vile and incompetent anyone one running under the GOP banner will be when given the power to govern.

The best thing that can happen in 2012 is that the GOP nominates the moose hunting airhead from Alaska with the Urkle-like exorcist from Louisiana for vice-president. When Obama wins again he may find himself getting 10 Nobel prizes from a world sick with relief.
