Conservative split in GOP with *

[serryjw]

I can't find this any where....Sorry if posted
quote......
The patriarch of US conservatives has urged his followers to halt their financial support of the Republican Party and start an independent movement, signaling a major political shift that could result in heavy losses for the US ruling party in upcoming elections.

Richard Viguerie, who was instrumental in cementing the winning coalitions behind Ronald Reagan in 1980 and George W. Bush in 2000, declared that conservatives were "downright fed up" with both the president and Republican-controlled Congress.

1. This is the best news I've heard this year

The Republicans need to de-neocon themselves like the people who delouse themselves; if this
is what it takes to deflate the extremists who have hijacked their party; so be it.

4. Vigurie is much more a religious nut than a true neocon

5. Hey, I take fundies any day over the nuke 'em now crowd

9. We can fight the RW easily

Its the neo-cons with their corporate money that is tough. Stem Cell is a losing issue for 75% of Americans, Row is still accepted by 75% and so is civil inions with benefits and responsibilities. I would love this fight...get the fucken money/control out of our lives.

2. Aw... how will that sit with the "uniter, not a divider"? ROFL

THAT would be frickin' EXCELLENT!

They'll never get enough to become the ruling party. I wish the religious wackos would splinter off, too, and form their own nutcase party. ANYTHING that helps to subdivide them and leave them less than they are is better for all the rest of us. That would lock them all into permanent minority status. LET 'EM SPLIT OFF!!!!! The sooner the better!

6. No, I thought that the Pugs would morph into a new party

that way they would not be held responsible for everything that went wrong, get a new party
symbol, same old corporate fat cats, slick new pr and you're there.

3. Conventional wisdom would say this is good news ........

..... and it could well be ..... but .....

These people - and guys like Viguerie in particular - are the masters of the fake, masters of deception.

I'll withhold my cheers for a while.

7. yes, we'll if we can have an advantage for just 2 election cycles

we could restore much of the infrastructure otherwise it will be gone forever; democracy
will be seen as a quaint notion and the constitution will be permanently ignored.

8. The sweater is unravelling.

I knew that Chimp would bring the GOP to tatters. It was only a matter of when. No political movement can survive when it bases its entire movement on lies, deceptions, and equivocations. Every lie adds another loose thread to the garment. We're now at a point where the garment is no longer wearable.

(Sounds like a good political cartoon, doesn't it.)

10. Agree..there was no way this was

sustainable. The damage they have done will take decades to fix.:cry:
