Tonight’s lessons.
1. Enough of the trembling in your boots already Democrats, you damn lily-livered cows. Never be afraid to run against a teabagger candidate who Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin are excited about. If you can’t take down a politician beholden to those idiot kings, you suck. Obama has earned the consensus view that he brought the economy back from the brink of disaster, and you’re worried about a bunch of ninnies who think the stimulus was the harbinger of a Communist takeover?
2. Keep up the purge, Republicans! After all, Barack Obama is destroying the country and IT IS 1939 YOU ARE JEWS THE OVEN IS JUST WARMING UP so drive out those moderates. Eventually people will stop thinking you’re a gang of know-nothing authoritarians who discovered fiscal conservatism on January 20, 2009 and who will forget it again as soon as you get your hands on a seat somewhere, who would have left the fate of the Bush recession up to the forces of chaos. If we’d only lowered more taxes and drilled for oil! You’ve got absolutely no real plan for reducing the deficit and putting America back in the black, but you’re Republicans. You don’t actually know how to govern, but you know how to run smear campaigns!

3) While shuffling around which party controls what seat is great and all, where politics really matters–when a question not of party loyalty but equal rights is placed before the electorate–the electorate is still more than willing to kick minorities in the teeth. The Maine result doesn’t make me feel real good about Iowa’s chances for retaining same-sex marriage past 2012 or so.

oh the president has that one covered, he says it doesn’t really matter if you want to get married, civil unions seem all right to him so enjoy getting told how to live

I forgot to add that when governing gets boring and there’s money to be made, Republicans can just resign as heroes to the party…

[...] so colorful! I mean this is THE model of tolerance. Exhibit A from “JB” at Iowa Liberal: Keep up the purge, Republicans! After all, Barack Obama is destroying the country and IT IS 1939 [...]

jeromy- they resign as heroes to the party and get a regular seat on Fox News talking about “news” that is actually an opinion based rant for 30 minute blocks designed to look like real news.

You’re blind if you don’t see it’s the exact same thing as CNN, the Communist News Network!
