"The Republican Party is putting itself in the hands of the economy. With Mitt Romney as the nominee, we will be forced to hope for a deteriorating economy because, while I will vote for him and think he is vastly better than Barack Obama, the fact is he has made no case for himself against Barack Obama except that he can do a better job on the economy."

He certainly hasn't really made that case but it is great that Erick Erickson is honest enough to admit that the Republicans are hoping and praying for hardship for the American people. The Republican Party is one evil organisation. Unpatriotic much? Take off those stupid flag pins that were made in China.

Now, now, DANNI. Erikson said he'd hope for the economic demise of teh nation only if "forced" to do so. Cut the man some slack.

Please do write-in "Sweet Meteor of Death" for president next November. I'm thinking scores of thousands of Republicans will.

Poor wittle Doc Doc. Did I insult your incompetent hero too hard? Go have another Brandy Alexander and chase it with another sailor, you pathetic Bammy-toady.

cooky, you are aware that Mikey Bling bling Steele has been gone for some time now? You got some crooked white dude writing your talking points now.

No, but your compulsion to demonstrate your status as a horse's ass is both predictable and amusing, cabana boy.

The people at Red State are bastards. They work at it. They're one of the concrete reasons the Republican Party is going to shit in 2012. They'll never admit that. Just like they'll never admit that Willard is as much their creation as anyone else's on the Right.

It's amazing to me that Republicans are bringing their anti-Americanism into the open by greeting good economic news for the nation as a whole as a political disaster.

The country as a whole is going to give the GOP only so much rope if they continue this trend. When the end of that rope is reached there won't be a Republican Party, except for a few barking mad types resisting nazi analogies.

Would said 'Meteor Of Death' be a precision strike targeted at the author only?

Is so, I endorse it as well.

Wow Doc. Black ass-holes. White asholes. Horse assholes (?) - your tongue must have cramped-up by now. No wonder you blog instead of talk.

As anally fixated as you are, Cookie, you probably feel like your miserable life finally came to an end and you're in Heaven.

"Black ass-holes. White asholes. Horse assholes (?) - your tongue must have cramped-up by now."

Why does Cookie have an obsession with tongues and men's asses?

"Why does Cookie have an obsession with tongues and men's asses?"

Not sure. But he giggles and sniggers whenever a rooster cries "Cock-a-doodle-doo."

COOKFISH...Racist Prick what happened the KKK meeting cancelled today??? You are so brave to make such outlandish comments something I would like to see you do in Harlem, you f**ken Coward!!!

^If Dems hadn't already admitted to treating Obama differently because of his 1/2 blackness then you guys might have a leg to stand on.

What's not to love about Newt? Other than he's a lying sack of shit that only a low grade moron would support:

Marianne Gingrich claimed in the ABC interview that her husband asked for an open marriage while he was having an extramarital affair with his current wife, Callista Gingrich.

"The story was false. Every personal friend I have who knew us in that period says the story is false. We offered several of them to ABC to prove it was false. They weren't interested," Gingrich said at a CNN debate last week.

In an interview on Tuesday, King pressed Gingrich on those claims, saying ABC News insisted no such witnesses were put forward.

Gingrich said ABC's defense was "just plain baloney."

"If they're saying that, then they're not being honest," Gingrich said. "We had several people prepared to be very clear and very aggressive in their dispute about that, and (ABC News) wasn't interested."

On Wednesday, however, the campaign conceded the candidate was wrong, both in his debate answer and in his interview with CNN on Tuesday.

We've had a Meteor of Death.

It was called Dick Cheney.

Well, I guess the bottom line is that Erik Erikson is eating his liver in anticipation of a time when Liberalism will make owning a liver illegal.

It's been almost a solid year of hand-wringing from the GOP in regards to their stupid presidential candidates. And, even given that year, they were unable to do any damned thing about it.

Unfortunately for Erikson, given the abnormally low quality of each of the remaining Republican candidates, even more bad economic news might not be enough to put Willard are any of the rest of them across.

People may just decide they don't like voting for freaks, allowing Obama to be FDR and 2012 to be 1936.

Cookfish sure likes to post about male assholes. Besides having one of the lamest handles around her, he's clearly obsessed with guy ass.

"Cookfish sure likes to post about male assholes."

He posts what he knows.

How do I give a FF to the headline?

You click the FF headline button, oh wait that's right rogers only gives those to people he likes.

"Gingrich said ABC's defense was "just plain baloney.""

Regular baloney, or pious baloney?

Endorsing nobody is a cop out, Erick Erickson.

At the risk of getting a dump, one may hope that many of the Ericksons of the country might invent their own personal "meteors of death" when Obama wins in November.

Erickson can't stand the sight of the sausage being made. Maybe he's pissed that his candidate has already been washed out. Once he gets over the butthurt and the thought of another 4 years of Constitution shredding starts to set in, he'll be on board with the Republican nominee.

Pretty funny to watch the Retardicans piss and moan over their crappy choices. They see the path they are on will lead to defeat and yet they can't get off. With Shakespeare that's a tragedy, with Retardicans it's a comedy.

And that, boys and girls, is why we say: Roofies, Ibogaine, and Perl Beer is a bad mix - even in a primary-colored cup with a swizzle stick.

Get your children indoors, folks, the drugged-out dipso old flasherman is stalking again.

Posts mentioning assholes, swizzle sticks, booze, and drugs drawn Vermin like shit draws flies.

"Once he gets over the butthurt and the thought of another 4 years of Constitution shredding starts to set in, he'll be on board with the Republican nominee."

You post as if you really think the recent Republican Presidents were so obedient to the constitution. You guys just kill me with your short yet selective memories. You can't remember long but you can distort the little bit you do. I's just amazing.

"I's just amazing."

You sho is.

Danni,
I've never said that Republicans are perfect. Only that the worst Republican is better than the best Democrat. ;)

"Only that the worst Republican is better than the best Democrat."

Okay, so you're saying Joe the Plumber outranks JFK as far as you're concerned.

Riiiiiiiiight.

LOL,
You gotta reach to 1961? Why not 1801?

Seriously,
Who is the 'best' Democrat today?

Dear Huge Not:

You didn't set forth any parameters in your statement, so you got an answer that did not fit any particular parameters.

Next time you're passing out slurs, you might be a little more precise.

Best Democrat today? Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Who has never gone bankrupt running an essential business where the average charge is in excess of $100 an hour.

Looks like Dick Sanatorium is doing well in the three states holding primaries and caucuses tonight.

What business did Hillary run?

Being a partner in a third rate country law firm doesn't really hit that mark.

Idiot Idiotson does it again! The Republican'ts have truly become the 21st century "no-nothing" party. Anti-science, anti-woman, anti-working-class. The Dems aren't much better, spineless and timid. May God have mercy on the United States of America.

"Being a partner in a third rate country law firm doesn't really hit that mark."

And your resume is?

My point is, Huge Not has said that the worst Republican is better than the best Democrat. Mrs. Clinton has a record of great accomplishment. Joe the Plumber has a record of great failure in a profession that commands extortionate sums from homeowners in need.

"Looks like Dick Sanatorium is doing well in the three states holding primaries and caucuses tonight."

People who believe that men rode dinosaurs will vote for anything that seems smarter than them, which includes most vertebrates.

@40
Mary,
From what I understand 'Joe' never declared bankruptcy either. Of course even if he did it wouldn't even come close to the Whitewater fraud and failure that Hillary was involved in and brought criminal charges against Bill. Their partners went to jail over it but wouldn't talk.

Plus lets not forget about Travelgate and Filegate.

It's easy to forget how corrupt the Clintons are in light of the current maggot infested administration.

"Mrs. Clinton has a record of great accomplishment."

Her greatest accomplishment is making the useful idiots think that she has a record of great accomplishment. Not much of anything else.

Yeah, but cookfish ain't the first white nothing. Black isn't a description used only when convenient.

Referencing the color-benefactor's skin color, when also calling the color-benefactor an asshole, is quite clearly within the bounds of a logical, objective argument.

If you're not blinded by your own brand of racism that is.

"There once was a blogger named Erik the Red who went roaring from Whitetrun to old Rorikstead".

A fine, bloody tune.

/Yes, waaaay too much Skyrim, thanks.

So, even the Red Staters and the Freepers are waking up to the fact that none of their candidates is worth a shit.

This amuses Spud.

Erik Erikson never gets over anything.

I don't suppose you understand that Erikson would never allow your above post to see the pages of Red State. You had to have a Liberal help you make your point.

So, yes. The bottom line at Red State, after they finished discontinuing your account for life, would be that you are stupid and quite likely a traitor to something or other.

How conservatism got to be nothing more or less than what Erikson and a few others decided it must be when they were all fourteen-years-of-age is a mystery. But their sort of hyper-mean egocentrism is why they, and you, are now fucked. Pardon my French.

"It's easy to forget how corrupt the Clintons are in light of the current maggot infested administration."

The Clintons are saints compared to the REagan and Nixon administrations. No treason in the Clinton administration, can't say that about either of the other two.

If the Republicans have any balls, they'll draft Cheney at their convention.

Would've worked as a name for a batch of LSD as well.

"Sweet meteor of death" is analogous to what the GOTPers hope for any time they are not in charge. They would rather the country implode than to not be able to take credit for its recovery...

And, when they are the ones who caused the global financial meltdown, and with unemployment toying with dropping into the seven percents (as I was mocked for saying it might by November), and with the economic indicators all pointing at real recovery, and with the best they can come up with as an alternative to this is Mitt "I've killed a lot of jobs" Romney, Newt "I had to cheat on my wives to be patriotic"Gingrich, or Rick "I wish we could all ride dinosaurs (like in the olden days)" Santorum, November is looking REALLY good for Obama. And , thank God; America has had enough of the "1%er's voodoo political agenda" from the GOTP to last for a century or so...

I wish the GOTP could all get their very own, "sweet meteor of death", but politically I don't think they'll need one...

Like I said: if unemployment numbers are down around 7% come November the Dems will landslide all three houses of the US government...

And, that is way better than a sweet meteor of death any day...

If the Republicans have any balls, they'll draft Cheney at their convention.

Remembering Why Americans Loathe Dick Cheney

The great ironic kicker is that the Grand Old White Party Of No (GOWPON) did it to itself all by itself. The uglies were so busy bad-mouthing their dark-complected president and insuring that nothing in government passed that they clean forgot to develop a program or viable presidential candidate of their own. herm

well, they got santorum last night.
