A liberal talking point by any other name…

Ok. So I ain’t exactly a ‘pacifist’ when it comes to getting a point across. So I will make this short and sweet (actually it will go on forever). And I take back nothing that I have said. However, I wish to clarify a few things.

It is not the disagreeing with Bush I find disgusting. I have disagreed with him a few times.I get embarrassed by him sometimes. And I have ideas better than him most of the time.

But this over-night change…It is unlike anything I have ever seen in 5 years of blogging.

As hard as I read I can not find many qualms about the war among conservatives. Though they disagree with strategy, they stand by the troops and their mission. They know that freedom isn’t free, that we HAVEN’T been attacked in a way such as we were on 9-11 since the war, and that good things have happened for innocent people in Iraq.

So I have come to the depressing conclusion that most of the hate towards republicans stems from immigration and other un-related issues.

Isn’t that…Odd?

Nothing wrong with being pissed over immigration and pissed at the party you put your trust in to fix it I know I am. But geez. I am seeing liberal talking points coming out of conservative mouths. I thought we were higher than “Bush-shit” and Bush fans are idiot Bush bots” And Bush is so dumb. Aren’t these the 3rd grade insults we were condemning liberals for using months ago? I can give you proof. I can CITE things!

I will be honest with you. You know I am. Those words sound just as stupid and pointless when the right uses them as when the left does. I mean, way to go on rubbing two brain cells together and coming up with Bush-shit. Oh, wait. Someone else already did that for you.

So here is my request

If you are going to insult someone, at least come up with original material. And be more civil than a liberal…like that is hard to do :angel:. Sheesh. We look like a buncha ass-hats running around with a rod up our…Well, ass. To the liberals, we look like liars and flip-floppers. And even though we are not by any means. It is not how the majority of Americans will see it. All they see is division among republicans and just more unity with democrats. They will vote for stability, they will not vote for the man on the republican ticket if this keeps up. Who would vote for a party that was disowned by almost all of its base ? I don’t think I would if I was the average Joe. Those dems would start to look mighty good. Good thing we aren’t the average dumb-ass Joe.

TO conclude. In my perhaps premature judgment and rage I yelled out against this behavior without making it clear I feel the same way you do just in a different sense. It is not that I am hating on you. I am trying to protect us from becoming what we hate.

How about this. Maybe none of us are ‘blind’. You think Bush and the republicans are the anti-Christ, I just think they flopped on some key issues and need to be replaced by true conservatives. But in the mean time I choose not to make horrible comments about them in order to look cool or informed. I refuse to say they have never done any good to us. There were some good things done in these long years, though it is not enough to absolve all the bad decisions.

This has turned into some bad inside joke among betrayed conservatives. But that is the thing about an inside joke, we may get it but the rest of America just sees arguing yuppies who can’t agree on anything…not even their leaders. The pandering for sympathy “I was betrayed whine-line” doesn’t work either. If you voted for Bush then own up to it. Don’t pretend like an innocent victim. Yes, you can feel wronged and yes you WERE wronged on key issues, but the pity party HAS to stop. It won’t change anything. It just looks like you are scapegoating your guilt for voting for someone you can’t stand now. A “It’s not me, it’s them!” attitude. And we all know that attitude never won a gold medal at anything.

We are not so different. It is how we present our argument that is different. It is how some of us want to try to find the positives, as little as there may be. And how some want to dwell on defeatist attitudes.

Right now the people of the ‘glass is half full’ party, are now the ‘glass is too full of Mexicans for me to care about anything else’ party.

Yea…You get the point.

Much Love,
LOF.
