Anybody still in the GOP party needs to get their heads out of their ass and see these morons for the destructive entity they have become. As said in an earlier post, the democrats are the Republican party of old and anyone who is a true Republican should be joining them. The New Republicans Party, or the New Fascists, as they should be called, are the modern day GOP. The left has been well, left, as in behind. Anyone not white, rich, straight, "Christian," and old should not be voting for a Republican ever. The Christian part I've put in quotes out as these people are not really Christian as they lack any understanding or empathy for things like poor people, civil rights or any other topic that Jesus would have approved of and the modern GOP sees as evil.
The stunning bravado these morons have had this week has been shocking in its ineptitude. Mitt Romney, in what has become a daily dose of foot in mouth disease, has now said the auto bailout was all his idea and he should get a lot of credit for it. That's like me saying I came up with the PC years before anyone else and Apple should just hand over the keys to the corporation because I said firsties. Idiot.
Obama made a bold move by declaring his support gay rights. The right has suggested that he will lose support from Christians, Hispanics and black people as a result. So called "Christians" were never going to vote for him anyway so no loss there. I really doubt that Hispanics will see this as a deal breaker as their other choice is to vote for a candidate that wants to deport them whether they are here legally or not. And as for black people, that's just hysterical to think that 99% of them won't be voting for a black president regardless. In reality he stands to gain votes from turned off voters who now see him as someone they can identify with. Support for gay rights has gone way up since 2008, but as the GOP thinks it's still 1950, they seemed to have missed that memo.
What have the New Fascists/GOP done in response? Here's a link to Virginia Republicans, worried that they will lose a lot of power in the state, a reality as recent polls show Obama gaining strength in that state and is now up by as much as seven points over Romney:

That's right. The GOP has actively said they want armed revolution should Obama win again. Isn't condoning actions that lead to violence against the law? Here's what the editor of the piece had to say:
"We have before us a challenge to remove an ideologue unlike anything world history has ever witnessed or recognized,” editor Ponch McPhee wrote. “An elected leader who shuns biblical praise, handicaps economic ability, disrespects the honor of earned military might.”
"The ultimate task for the people is to remain vigilant and aware ~ that the government, their government is out of control, and this moment, this opportunity, must not be forsaken, must not escape us, for we shall not have any coarse [sic] but armed revolution should we fail with the power of the vote in November ~ This Republic cannot survive for 4 more years underneath this political socialist ideologue."
This idea that Obama is the most left wing President ever shows the level of debasement the Teatards will go to to advance their idiotic notions. Here's where it get truly funny. The ideas that these retards are advancing, especially their support of austerity measures, are exactly the kind of thing being advanced by the very European governments they are said to despise.
With the loss of Dick Lugar to a far right candidate, mainly because Lugar was a moderate, which he wasn't, show how far right the GOP has moved. The winner, Richard Murdock, supported by the Tea Party, has come out and agreed that austerity measures are the way to go. Paul Ryan and the GOP have argued the same. What part of it's not working do these simpletons not see?

Here is a piece of that above link:
Being a good tea party Republican, Mourdock is all about slashing government spending without regard to the impact of the cuts on the economy or on those who need government help. He cast his campaign as a battle against “the nightmare of ever-growing government” that would turn the United States into a “Western European-style nation.”
This gets us to the irony: Right now, it’s conservatives who want to follow the Western European path of austerity that voters in France and Greece rejected last weekend. The Obama administration, by contrast, has chosen a distinctly American path that kept austerity at bay. As a result, the American economy has climbed out of the Great Recession more quickly than most of Europe. Had Obama accepted the right wing’s assertions that cutting government is the one and only route to prosperity, we would have gone the way of Britain, which is slipping toward recession again.
In fact, the “socialist” Obama has presided over an economy in which private employment has risen by 4.2 million jobs during the recovery even as governments at all levels have cut public payrolls by some 600,000 since the beginning of 2009. If shrinking government is the political right’s goal, this puts Obama to the right of both Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush. The United States should have been even more aggressive in pump priming the economy — and Obama would have been if conservatives and some moderates had not been so resistant
While not all of those facts are right, especially the wildly inflated number of jobs, the fact does remain that austerity measures were not taken here, as the GOP wanted to do, and thank god, because if it had, we would be in a full blown Great Depression by now. The sad part is that they STILL want to do austerity even though all evidence points to the fact that it won't work, has never worked, and will never work. Yet like a three year old having a tantrum, they are holding their breath until austerity measures are passed. The GOP wants to do measures that have been rejected by voters in Europe, demonstrated to make things far, far worse, and are using it as campaign ploy. What level of stupidity do these kind of people possess?
Paul Ryan is still trying to implement them with his Budget Plan and now his notion to water down the upcoming cuts to the military with big cuts to the poor instead? What is he smoking because I am pretty sure it's illegal? Here's the link from the WSJ:
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304203604577395912231544568.html?mod=googlenews_wsj
Mr. Ryan and most other House Republicans want to replace those cuts to the
Pentagon with reductions in long-term entitlement spending. Democrats in the
Senate, led by Patty Murray of Washington, are insisting that that would break a
bipartisan deal. They want the cuts to take place and hope the scheduled
cutbacks will force Republicans to agree to raise taxes. That is the gamble that
Democrats took when they agreed to the automatic cuts—half from defense and half
from discretionary spending—and Republicans are blinking before even the first
round of cuts have been ordered.
These assholes are the most untrustworthy douchebags ever. What part of no austerity measures are they not getting. If they really want an armed revolution it won't be by electing Obama but by implementing these terrible measures. Greece and Spain are in full blown Depressions, regardless of a word like Recession being thrown around by local and international media, and they want us to follow suit.
No one who isn't rich, white, straight, religious and old should even think of voting for a GOP candidate come fall unless eating dog food, martial law, and being told what to do every second of the day is your idea of a great, new America. The democrats may be bad but the GOP are nothing short of Nazis at this point. Don't forget it.
