Yes, I was quite shocked to see some of what ITN had written today. I always lumped him into the extreme group, with the rest of the far right and left of this board. Good to see he's actually more to the middle. To bad there isn't more of us.

Please get off your high horse. The only people who think headlines last forever, are the people who wrote them, i.e. the Democrats and their main stream media lackeys. This is a speedbump. Not some grand coup de etat. Get over yourself already.:D

Of the 20 major media outlets studied, 18 scored left of center, with CBS' "Evening News," The New York Times and the Los Angeles Times ranking second, third and fourth most liberal behind the news pages of The Wall Street Journal.

I think you're a very level headed individual that is capable of critical thought. I cannot compliment you anymore than that.
Wow, coming from someone that I have come to admire for his knowledge of history and rather cool wit...

Thanx, that means a lot to me.

Right-wing icon: Republicans have failed this country

RAW STORY
Published: Wednesday November 8, 2006

Conservative activist Richard Viguerie has released a statement that blasts the GOP's Congressional leadership in the wake of the loss of both the House and Senate.

"Every single member of the Republican leadership in the House should be replaced," says Viguerie. "They have failed the conservatives who put them in office, and they have failed the people of this country."

Viguerie attacks what he desribes as "the Big Business wing of the Republican Party" and urges GOP leaders to "get out of the way, and let a new generation of young, principled conservatives take their place," according to the release.

"Congressional Republicans should move as fast as they can to distance themselves from the Bush White House," says Viguerie. "That's the only way to come back from this disaster."

Excerpts from the press release follow...

"Yesterday's mid-term elections were a referendum on George W. Bush and his war on Iraq. Voters couldn't vote to fire Bush, so they did the next best thing -- they fired his party, in the House, in the Senate, in the statehouses around the Nation."


"This election," Viguerie said, "was also a referendum on the so-called 'neoconservatives' -- the Big Government Republicans who took us into a nation-building war while they busted the budget and enriched Big Business and its K Street lobbyists."

Viguerie said, "The only thing Denny Hastert & Company cared about was holding onto power. That's what led them to become Kings of Pork. That's what led them to protect the likes of Mark Foley."

MAJORITIES FAVOR SMALLER GOVERNMENT, TRADITIONAL VALUES: "One thing this election was NOT is a repudiation of conservatism. The twin pillars of conservatism -- smaller government and traditional values -- have the support of the same voters who threw out the Republican Congress."


*********************************************************


Yes, neo-cons and their supporters have done all they could to destroy the USA. The election was a mandate for the Congress and White House to desist in their submission to their treason and to work for the USA's good. The America hating right wing extremists have won the battles for the past 6 years. But we patriotic Americans will win the war against their treason. This past election was only step one in the process and more, much more, is to follow.
