It's the 'Denial Site' thread I think.
Thank you. I think I'll have to mosey on in there.
It's the 'Denial Site' thread I think.
Things on the right have been building for a long time just as things built on the left for the decade prior to Watergate. The left was profoundly changed and never returned to its former ideas. The same is true on the right. The transformation means that conservatism will not be restored in a form which it was known. Creative destruction.Thank you. I think I'll have to mosey on in there.![]()
Really? If you would be so inclined, I'd like to be directed to this particular thread.
See above sociopath.
What Hitler did was evil, but what you and slime like you are doing could take us all out.
Like I said, you're a sociopath.
This was directed towards Locutus... since you asked
Either red has never read Atlas Shrugged or he lacks the comprehension skills necessary to understand that it is a work of fiction. Much like the climate change blogs he is always quoting.
For Greenspan it was reality.For guys like Red... fiction is reality.
Keep the hate flowing, Are Are, it will make you feel better.It really is the party of sociopaths.
Makes you wonder what the Republican Vice Presidential candidate for 2012 thinks about child killers. .
Keep the hate flowing, Are Are, it will make you feel better.
Appears that Old Red has a ton of hate inside. I propose a Preying Circle.
Keep the hate flowing, Are Are, it will make you feel better.
The Mark Foley scandal, which broke in late September 2006, centers on soliciting e-mails and sexually suggestive instant messages sent by Mark Foley, a Republican Congressman from Florida, to teenaged boys who had formerly served as congressional pages. Investigation was closed by the FDLE on September 19, 2008 citing insufficient evidence to pursue criminal charges as both "Congress and Mr. Foley denied us access to critical data", said FDLE Commissioner Gerald Bailey.[1] The scandal grew to encompass the response of Republican congressional leaders to previous complaints about Foley's contacts with the pages and inconsistencies in the leaders' public statements.[2][3][4][5][6] There were also allegations that a second Republican Congressman, Jim Kolbe, had improper conduct with at least two youths, a 16-year old page and a recently graduated page.[7][8]
The Larry Craig scandal was an incident that began on June 11, 2007, with the arrest of Larry Craig—who at the time was a Senator from Idaho—for lewd conduct in a men's restroom at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. Craig later entered a guilty plea to a lesser charge of disorderly conduct on August 8.[1] As a result of the controversy surrounding his arrest, subsequent guilty plea, and pressure from his fellow Republicans,[2][3][4] Senator Craig announced his intention to resign from the Senate at a news conference on September 1, which was to become effective on September 30. After failing to withdraw his guilty plea, on October 4, Craig released a statement refusing to resign as senator for Idaho.
He made headlines in 2007 after being arrested for offering $20 for the opportunity to perform fellatio on an undercover male police officer[1] in the restroom of a public park and was released on bail. Since the time of his arrest, Allen has maintained his innocence, stating that he believed the undercover police officer was trying to rob him, and that he only offered to perform oral sex because he felt intimidated by the black and muscular police officer.[2][3] Allen was convicted on November 9, 2007, and sentenced to six months' probation, and was fined $250.[4] He resigned from the Florida House of Representatives on November 16, 2007.
AUSTIN - Former House majority leader Tom DeLay, the brash Texan who helped build and tightly control a Republican majority in his chamber until resigning in 2005, was sentenced by a state judge on Monday to three years in prison for illegally plotting to funnel corporate contributions to Texas legislative candidates.
State Senior Judge Pat Priest, citing the need for those who write the laws to "be bound by them," rejected DeLay's impassioned argument that he was the victim of political persecution and was improperly accused of breaking the law for doing what "everybody was doing."
The Cunningham scandal is a U.S. political scandal in which defense contractors paid bribes to members of Congress and officials in the U.S. Defense Department, in return for political favors in the form of federal contracts. Most notable amongst the recipients of the bribes was California Congressman Duke Cunningham who pled guilty to receiving over $2.3 million in bribes. The primary defense contractors were Mitchell Wade (owner of MZM) and Brent R. Wilkes (owner of ADCS Inc.).
College Republican National Chairman
After graduating from Brandeis, Abramoff ran for election as chairman of the College Republican National Committee (CRNC). After a campaign which cost over $10,000 and was managed by Grover Norquist, Abramoff won the election after the chief competitor, Amy Moritz (who later, as Amy Ridenour, became a founding director of the National Center for Public Policy Research, and was involved in several trips funded by Jack Abramoff), was persuaded to drop out. Abramoff "changed the direction of the committee and made it more activist and conservative than ever before," notes the CRNC. "It is not our job to seek peaceful coexistence with the Left", Abramoff was quoted as saying in the group's 1983 annual report. "Our job is to remove them from power permanently."[14]
Norquist served as executive director of the committee under Abramoff. He later recruited Ralph Reed, a former president of the University of Georgia College Republicans chapter, as an unpaid intern. According to Reed's book Active Faith, Reed also introduced Abramoff to his future wife, Pam Alexander.
Jack Abramoff was a highly influential figure as lobbyist and activist in the Bush administration.[54] In 2001, Abramoff was a member of the Bush administration's 2001 Transition Advisory Team assigned to the Department of the Interior.[55] Abramoff befriended the incoming Deputy Secretary of the Interior J. Steven Griles.
The draft report of the House Government Reform Committee said the documents — largely Abramoff's billing records and e-mails — listed 485 lobbying contacts with White House officials over three years, including 10 with top Bush aide Karl Rove. The report said that of the 485 contacts listed, 345 were described as meetings or other in-person contacts; 71 were described as phone conversations and 69 were e-mail exchanges.[56]
Some of these creeps are into little boys:

Gay bashing while being closet homosexuals:

The party of "family values" seems to be full of deviants.
And crooks:
Tom DeLay, former U.S. House leader, sentenced to 3 years in prison
Like your typical sociopath Delay tried to balme his actions on someone else, the judge didn't buy it.
I used to really admire this guy:
Cunningham scandal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Too bad he turned out to be such a crook also.
And another Republican crook:
Jack Abramoff - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
House Majority leader, former Vietnam hero, former College Republican National Chairman, corruption and larceny seem pretty endemic to the Republican Party, what was that about family values again?
Is it any wonder they left the nation in ruins.
Not that I saw.
Without sin?
