When will the Republicans decide that Bush has shamed them enough?
I really don't get these right-wing nutzos that keep staunchly defending the criminal, petty and shameful acts this administration keep on doing. Don't they have any pride? Don't any of them have any sense of honor or decency? They seem to be so desparate to wallow around in the mud with the Bushies. Don't they realize it makes them look like toadying fools? If it were me I'd work to push this decaying Bush guy out of the way instead of trying to prop him up.

2. Bush didn't shame them
they are slowly going about separating themselves from Bush not in an overt sense, but in just strong enough fashion so that they retain (regain?) electability

All while never apologizing for the shit they've been complicit in putting the country through or backing down from future such shit they've already got mapped out

A lame duck is a great tool for them and if Bush made it this far nothing they do is going to hurt his career path, now is it? I mean, horror of horrors, what if the Texas Rangers don't want the little mongoloid back after his term ends?

3. They're a cult
They're pod people. They won't wake up until they've been deprogrammed.

4. Never. They have no shame.
If Bush personally walked into their house, killed their dogs, push their mothers down stairs, sent their children to sweat shops, and burned down their houses; they'd still support the "greatest president ever." And they'd do it with pride.

:puke:

9. Does psychology have an explanation for this shit?
Some kind of variation of the Stockholm syndrome?

Stupidity syndrome?

10. Head-in-the-Sand Syndrome
The bully can't attack me, because I'm his sidekick.
Therefore, if someone attacks me. It can't be the bully.

It must be Osama in a George W Bush dress.

5. The Republican Party is a Failed Ideology
They have not succeeded in doing a single thing right.
It's time for them to shut it down and rethink their approach.

8. what i've seen and heard is this
certain people will support this president because they feel if a democrat is elected, they willl have to pay more fees and taxes. money is a huge motivator. another group will continue to support him because of the rapture. they feel bush's policies are speeding up that happy event. and, of course the corporations love him because they have had free rein to outsource, take money offshore and avoid paying their share of the taxes, make huge profits while being stingy with wage increasess and healthcare benefits. corporations haven't been pressed to implement costly environmental controls. to put it in a nutshell - corporations have been on a gravy train. and, finally, my favorite group - the intrepid group of supporters who would vote for a ham sandwich if it was a republican.
