Countdown: GOP Pizza Party
David Shuster reports on the National Council for a New America's pizza party. Seems they were a bit short on any female participation and on new ideas as well. As Shuster notes Mike Pence has asked the GOP to fire legislative staffers, the ideas people, in order to hire former Bush staffers for communications.
I realize that Pence isn't exactly a policy wonk, despite his role as the #3 Republican in the chamber, but this advice only helps reinforce the notion that the minority party is fundamentally unserious about public policy. Legislative staffers tend to work on substantive issues, including constituent services. Pence encouraged his GOP colleagues to get rid of these aides in order to hire staffers to focus on media? C'mon.
Hey who needs staffers when you're getting ideas like this anyway?


I'm surprised a Bush can still show his face in public.
Maybe they should wear W masks, so they can remind people of who the GOP really are? Good thinking Mikey.
I'd like double fascism and Orwellean bullshit on my GOPie.
If I were a psychopath, I would join the republican party, and get in on the gravy train taking the Teabircher morons to the cleaners.
Those people in that room are ignorant enough to believe bush was a good president.
A sobering thought.

I dare you to name one extreme Leftist Liberal who has the reputation as a Bush. tee, hee, hee...
you are an idiot.
You get dropped on your empty head one too many times?
Why don't YOU name one?
And just FYI...bushies reputation isn't exactly somethin worth braggin about.
Hits and runs.
And from West Palm Beach, no less.
and his post really doesn't make much sense either...
typical...
Matching this reputation:
- Responsible for three businesses going bankrupt under his leadership.
- So clueless that he traded Sammy Sosa from the Texas Rangers and voted against the majority of MLB Owners in instituting the current wildcard playoff system.
- Sat in stunned silence for seven minutes after 9/11.
- Couldn't remember the word 'hurricane' in a briefing on Hurricane Katrina.
- Broke the law, ignored the constitution, ignored international treaties whenever it suited him.
- Kept insisting the economy was sound, then insisted he hadn't insisted that at all.
THAT reputation?
HA!
was short of his personal best set during a long on ESPN camera nose pick in the owners box at a Rangers game.

as for the booger...it is enshrined in glass and will be the centerpiece of booshies new liberry.
This is not really a surprise; the Repukes have never been about substance (governing) only about phony feel good messages. It's always back to the future for these clowns.
Cantor always looks uncomfortable when he's talking. Does he suffer from hemorrhoids or is he always on the verge of crying?
The republicans remind me of a dog with its worn out toy. No matter how old and dirty the toy is, the dog just won't give it up. No matter how stale and out of date their ideas are, they just won't give them up or look to possibly accept new ones. They are stuck in an ever diminishing circle and they refuse to get out.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
His throat is sore from cracking walnuts with his Adam's apple. He and Ann Coulter do this instead of arm wrestling.

... the one that is eroding from below/within, will drop into the ocean and never reform.
Or, if it does reform, will be much thinner and not as strong as it used to be ...
and baby harp seal poppers.
Bush left everything in his wake a total disaster and a mess, including his own party. These people were left in the middle of a circle of a big pile of fecal matter and no matter which way they step now, they're going to step in it.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
The idea that the re-Thug party is about new ideas is laughable on its face and contrary to what they have always stood for -- marching backward from the status quo.
As the re-Thugs become increasingly loony and shrill, reasonable and sane people flee their toxic embrace. The re-Thugs lunatic fringe has now become their core base and they increasingly turn to the re-Thugs rabid media spokespersons for inflammatory rhetoric. They depend on people like bachmann, beck, ingraham, o'reilly, hannity and savage for their daily dose of bloody red meat. The re-Thug party has narrowed down almost completely to lunatics, the insane and the dangerous.

Clearly going after Palin's "real Americans" crowd. Translated....Paranoid bigots who hate Obama and are afraid that brown skinned people are taking over. If the GOP was truly serious about changing their fucked up image they'd immediately tell Rush, Hannity, Savage, O'Reilly, et al to STFU with the hate talk.
Is kinda gross.
Those people around them look about as interested in what they have to say as I am. The look like props rather than participants in a discussion.
There must be something evil about me because I find humor in watching these republicans try to erase the past and act as though their party had nothing to do with the disaster their party is today. If they think that bringing Palin back into focus now is a good idea....it just makes me laugh.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
Lookin around like he wanted to be anywhere else but where he was?
Classic.
What a gift. Someone get the fire extinguishers. Next time theymight set themselves on fire.
Blackmail? In DC? By Repugs?
Somehow, I find myself able to believe they'd do something like that.

Que up Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis.

The ruling elite know they have no ideas. They also know that their base is a bunch of retards with all the political intelligence of the mob that killed Frankenstein's monster. So, in order to keep the base in check, they need even more ideological purity. Policy and Research staff deal with reality, and have to come up with ideas based on that. Since reality has a built in Liberal Bias, the staffers cannot be trusted to give policies that back up the idiotic ideology. Therefore, in order to rule the party better, you fire the staffers (they can't come up with good policy ideas when they're dealing with a completely stupid and bankrupt ideology, anyway) and put in party apparatchiks, so as to steer the great unwashed masses of mouth-breathing idiocy in a direction useful to them.
Not. Rocket. Science.
It's called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it.
-George Carlin
It's brain science!
When you say "their base is a bunch of retards" is that the sentiment of one with sympathy for the developmentally disabled or the rantings of "the great unwashed masses of mouth-breathing idiocy?"
"That's fu*#ing retarded."

seriously...which one do you think tweakerbelle is referring to?
Somehow I just can't take them seriously!!!
... is as a lesson on What Not To Do.
It was really pathetic.
The questions were of the whining/snarky sort and had no real substance at all ("Unlike most liberals, I pay my taxes. Buh huh huh").
Of course that opened the door for Mittens, Jeb, etc. to spew all the standard talking points while having the word "Spumoni" on a blackboard behind them. Very sad and pathetic. If this is the best they've got, I'm thinking "Godzilla vs. Bambi"

I don't know how many wheels were originally on the GOP bus, but however many there are, or were, they just keep falling off. They truly believe that marketing/branding is the party's biggest and only problem. But I suppose that sort of "thinking" is inevitable when it put so much effort into being the party of business. Too often in business when a product isn't selling, the first answer seems to be "Let's change the packaging." It's only until it's too late that someone decides that there might be a fundamental problem with the product itself. This is why the GOP has no new ideas. It sees nothing wrong with its old ideas, which is why its so-called leaders would even consider for a second hiring retreads from the Bush regime to help it find its way out of the wilderness to which it has so deservedly been exiled.
bought pizza, it might have been a good day for the pizza place, unless by the repugs being there, it drove off the regular customers.
These ignorant idiots can't really believe that they ae going to change the face of the GOP when it is the same old shitty ideas and faces. The GOP is happily declining.

I hope that means they're going to go somewhere else and start their own country. They already nearly wrecked this one.
Is Jebby Bush a bit zaftig, like his mommy? Or better, lard-arsed, unlike his insane brother...
Note to Thugs: we're done with them.
Today's GOP = rednecks in suits.
far left loon >.<
