No "Moderates" Allowed

It's been interesting and hilarious watching the Republicans all jump off their gigantic fucking cliff throughout the year. Most of them worship lunatics like Beck and Limbaugh and Palin, but as soon as someone points out the lunacy of these people, they're quick to detach themselves and scream about how [lunatic] isn't the leader of the Republican party, or [lunatic] isn't a Republican at all, this isn't about republican and democrat, stop drinking dah kool-aid you mindless sheeple.

Did you guys know the lunatics have created their own party? The "Conservative Party", or what I like to call the Glenn Beck Party, is helping out Democrats by sabotaging Republicans' chances at victory.

In what could be a nightmare scenario for Republican Party officials, conservative activists are gearing up to challenge leading GOP candidates in more than a dozen key House and Senate races in 2010.

Conservatives and tea party activists had already set their sights on some of the GOP’s top Senate recruits — a list that includes Gov. Charlie Crist in Florida, former Rep. Rob Simmons in Connecticut and Rep. Mark Kirk in Illinois, among others.

But their success in Tuesday’s upstate New York special election, where grass-roots efforts pushed GOP nominee Dede Scozzafava to drop out of the race and helped Conservative Party nominee Doug Hoffman surge into the lead on the eve of Election Day, has generated more money and enthusiasm than organizers ever imagined.

Activists predict a wave that could roll from California to Kentucky to New Hampshire and that could leave even some GOP incumbents — Utah Sen. Bob Bennett is one — facing unexpectedly fierce challenges from their right flank.

[...]

These high-stakes primaries, pitting the activist wing of the party against the establishment wing, stand to have a profound impact on the 2010 election landscape since they will create significant problems for moderate candidates recruited by the national party precisely because they appear well-suited to win in places that are not easily — or even plausibly — won by conservative candidates.

The tensions between the two visions threaten to limit the party’s gains in an election year that is shaping up in its favor.

Party strategists worry that well-funded, well-organized challenges from the right could force Republicans to exhaust precious resources on messy primary fights — or force moderate candidates to adopt more strident positions early on that could haunt them during the final months of the campaign.

“For me, what this says is, we need to take a deep breath and decide whether [moderates and conservatives] work together or not,” said Tom Davis, the former chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee. “And if we don’t, it can get very, very ugly.”

The funniest part about this is that they think Republicans are moderate.

The two-party system is pretty shitty, but in all honesty, it's probably the best form of government human beings are capable of using at this moment of our history. You can go ahead and vote third party to jerk off over how much of an individual you are if you really want to, but in the end, you accomplished nothing. You only helped the people you really hate stay in power by taking votes away from the "not-as-evil" party. Napoleon Bonaparte has a great quote -- "Never interrupt your enemy when he is in the process of making a mistake." Hey Glenn Beck Party, you wanna know how to keep Democrats in power? Keep reading out of that Ralph Nader playbook, thanks guys.

(it'll work for them since god is on their side)


Victim In Fatal Car Accident Tragically Not Glenn Beck


The conservative blog Hot Air's reaction to this video is pretty funny:
I don’t know why they even bothered dressing this up as comedy. If you’re going to wish death on someone, own it. It’s like hitting a guy with a crowbar but wearing a funny hat while doing it to “lighten the mood” or whatever.
Seriously Onion, listen to these guys. They know how to do it right.
