CPAC. Saddest bunch of pathetic, last-century, out of touch Reagan worshippers I've ever seen.

No enthusiasm, small groups, dragging up dirt that's been turned over again and again and again. How on earth can they consider themselves relevant in this country today?

Kelly Ayotte (sp) is just ridiculous lauding Reagan and Bush, dumping on Hillary and Susan Rice over Ben-freaking-gazi. McConnell actually saying that the difference between liberal and conservative politics is that liberals are beholden to special interest groups.

It's encouraging, really. I'd rename it The Walking Dead but that's been taken.

12. Umm, that wasn't meant as praise for 80s Pukes. I know all about Reagan, Poppy, Singlaub, Secord,

North, Eden Pastora, Adnan Khashoggi, Ricky Ross, etc, etc, etc. Anyone who's read the works of Robert Parry, Haynes Johnson or Gary Webb (to name a few) knows what I'm talking about. So you can save the clever comments for someone else, junior. I was referring to their ideas being at least a couple of centuries old.

over a sarcastic comment I made about him. Now I'm all paranoid and ship. I feel like an asshole now.

When the 4 of them have secured the mall and they're looking at the zombies through the glass doors trying to get in.

The woman (I forget her name) says, "It's really over, isn't it?"

(If I recall that scene correctly. Or maybe she said that from the helicopter? Whatever, you know what I mean, stop yelling at me!!!)

6. They need to admit that Reagan's policies of coddling the uber rich have failed.

and vote out as many republican/tea as possible. Let's make it our goal to recruit as many people as possible to GOTV and get them registered this year before they put in those dreaded ID bills.

I want to see heads explode and conservatives beating their chests and crying in pain.

14. Their hero, Reagan, was a traitor

Reagan and his gang made a deal with Iran to hold the hostages in 1980 just so that Reagan could be elected. One of Regan's last public comments about his presidency? "I don't recall" said the treasonous bastard.
