No One Left But Moonbats
It looks like Mitt Romney is hanging it up. Batten down the hatches, we are in for at least four years of unrelenting moonbattery.
On tips from Byron and Mandy.

Glenn Beck will be in tears this evening. He was really annoyed with Chuck Norris supporting Mike Huckabee instead of his Mormon buddy Mitt. Glenn will probably have to change his holy underwear after the show. I like Glenn and most of the time he makes alot of sense, but after his brush with death hes gotten really goofy and weepy like a girly man and does all these shows interviewing country music stars. Im afriad Glenn has Jumped the Shark.
Maybe the country needs 4 years of full blown Moonbattery. At least this site will be more entertaining as Moonbattery reaches a fever pitch.

Michelle Malkin has the right idea, which is now is the time to work to get congress back from the dems. Not 2 or 4 years from now but this fall. It can be done but it will take a lot of money and hard work.
Forget about McCain, when the msm gets done with him I am still betting only 25 to 30% votes goes for McCain in the national so don't waste your time on him. Work for all local conservatives. A battle is lost but not the war.

People are asking who the next Reagan will be. I think it will be the guy who unites Republicans and Conservatives against President Hillary. Maybe the Romney of 08 will be the Reagan of 76. He could spend the next four years polishing his conservative bona fides.
Only the Republican Party could succeed in making Hillary Clinton an attractive alternative to its chosen candidate.

Dont forget to write me in when you vote in November. Ron Paul will be my VP. We may both be a few sandwiches short of a picnic, but were real Americans. Ryan Archer for President.

I'll vote for McCain and hope that he is more conservative than we all think.

Who are these alleged conservatives that continually vote for this doddering old fool?
On the bright side Maybe McCain will select Romney or Alan Keyes as his VP? It would be very likely that someone decent would then take over the reins, so all might not be lost.

You're down to lesser evils. It's one world communism, or Ron Paul, is one way of looking at it. The War On Terror isn't going anywhere anyway, until somebody has the balls to admit that it's a war on Islam, and that ain't going to happen.
Your next president is going to be dissolving your borders, hand over more sovereignty to transnationalist communist governance bodies, submit to the greens, wreck your economy, bloat your government and destroy what remnant of the Constitution remains.
Or you can have the slightly silly guy with the pixie laugh who's right about most everything except being wrong about continuing the Iraq and Afghanistan campaigns.
Not an easy choice, but I'd swallow my hawkishness and vote Paul.
Mind you, I speak as somebody living in a country that no longer exists, so I know firsthand what happens if you let the progressives get their way.

I really tried to like Romney, but his appearence on Meet the Press just made me sick. He clearly put politics ahead of his faith. Huckabee may be the most honest of the candidates, and like his views or not you will always know where he stands on issues.
I also lived in Arkansas for a number of years and I can tell you that no other candidate will be tougher on crime. He has done a lot to help police.

It's like Rush said; it took Jimmy Carter to elect Ronald Reagan.
Posted by: Harris at February 7, 2008 1:12 PM
People still pining for Ron Paul and Alan Keys? Those guys had about as much chance of winning as snowball in hell.
If Romney wasnt part of the Mormon cult he would probably have been the nominee. Having a name like Mitt didnt help either.
Huckabee is Jimmy Carter 30 years ago. Wouldnt suprise me if 30 years from now he goes total moonbat from senility.
Old Lettuce head McCain would be a good placeholder - much better than letting Shillary of Osama sit in the Oval Office. McCain at least would probably be sleeping most of the time so he wouldnt do as much damage as the other 2. McCain whould choose Fred Thompson as VP to take over if he kicks the bucket.
Of course they could just let SKYNET take over and run the country. Just dont let it have access to nuclear weapons.

One thing is now certain: the next president will be anti-borders, anti-gun, anti-Christian, anti-free speech, anti-conservative, anti-hunting, anti-fishing, anti-family, anti-car, anti-millitary, anti-tax cut, anti-brained.
Okay that's more than "one thing". So shoot me.
I'm generally a very positive guy. For instance, I'm positive I'll need yet more ammo.

It's very clear where this is all going. I don't even see why we need to go through the torture between now and November. The American people have spoken, and they've decided that what they want is the Clintons reoccupying the White House. It is hard to believe, or accept, but that's the truth. There are no Republicans running for president. Anyone with conservative values, and I certainly count myself in this category, has no one to vote for, and hence no purpose in voting.
Posted by: mega at February 7, 2008 2:05 PM
I'll write in Elmer Fudd for Presidnet before I vote for Ron Paul. At least Elmer wouldn't cower at the feet of the Islamofascists the way that pansy Paul would.
Posted by: Kristy at February 7, 2008 2:27 PM
Kristy, what I'm saying here is you got two distinct problems to deal with. One is Islamists. The other is the Progressive destruction of your nation from the inside. If you can stop that second one, you can go back and bomb the first one back to the Stone Age any time you feel like it. If you don't stop the second one, any kind of victory over the first will be pyrrhic at best and impossible at worst anyway.
What use of beating the enemy without, if you are destroyed by the enemy within?

Norm McDonald
Hillary Clinton
An inanimate carbon rod
Barack Obama
A clump of Peat Moss

Cthulu
John McCain
A brutal genocidal alien overlord
Mahmoud Ahmedinejad
Ron Paul
The Torture Dude from Saw
Jimmy Carter back for a second term.

Posted by: Doug at February 7, 2008 5:28 PM
Ian, you're right on -- as Will Durant noted: "No great civilization has been destroyed from without, unless having first destroyed itself from within" (paraphrasing).
All of our modern "Progressives," having been educated by 60's radicals and their ilk, seem determined to self-destruct, and condemn their own children to a bare-subsistence existence, scrounging in trash pits for scraps of food, dying by the thousands of frostbite, mal-nutrition and disease, all in the name of such feel-good garbage as "Gaia" and "multiculturalism." Only problem is, they're taking the rest of us with them, and we don't particularly want to go (to put it mildly).
I am hoping that McLame '08, or Hillary/Usama '08, will lead (a la Carter '76 and Reagan '80) to Duncan Hunter '12.

Aye, one need only read Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, specifically The Scouring of the Shire, to come to that same conclusion. The Good Professor was writing about the conditions of England post-World War II (in fact, its really the only part of his legendarium that is in fact allegorical). One could easily hear the words of the Hobbits as they lamented that 'everything got short, except the rules'.
Sadly, I think its time to toss in the towel as far as the Presidential race is concerned. We now need to concentrate on getting Congress back to people (Republican or that rare Democrat) that believe in Federalism as espoused by our Founding Fathers. We can also only hope that the Supreme Court will reject the Bush Administration's amicus brief and rule that undeniably the 2nd Amendment is a fundamental individual right, which the government is not allowed to regulate.
As others have said, its time to batten down the hatches and prepare for the worst. If what that Russian Astrophysicist said is true, Sun spot activity is going fall off sharply, leading to cooling. Once that starts, the world's population is gonna start starving. When the horde of starving people cross the border to get food, things are gonna get bad.

Yes Ian, I agree.

V the K, I didn't think it would be possible to laugh about the current stage of presidential politics, but your list gave me a good one.
Would you *really* prefer McCain over Amedinejad, or were you just making a sly rhetorical point about Amedinejad?

The funny part, when you think about it, is how bitter leftists are that a "senile entertainer" defeated communism at home (Jimmy Carter/Walter Mondale) and abroad (the Soviet Union), and radically altered the economic and political landscape of the USA for a generation.
But, then, I'm sure marxfanatic has some personal accomplishments he's proud of, too. Like the bong he built out of the muffler of his mom's Honda Civic. It may not have changed your world, but man, did it ever change his.

Aww, someone's CROSS...
Guess yesterday was a rough one for the cultists.
And Bonzo "defeated Communism" NOWHERE.
He was incapable of defeating an ignition lock.
Props to the Europeans for ending Communism in their homelands.
Posted by: hashfanatic at February 8, 2008 7:03 AM
Hash,
Communism isn't gone yet. Unless China, Cuba, and North Korea changed overnight.
Good thing I'm a history teacher.
By the way, heard about the pact between China, Russia, Kim Jung Il, and that fruit down in Columbia.
Guess if we need help we can count on "Code Pink"

Oh,
and I left out the great Holocaust denier in Iran. Hear he's a big fan of the free world. He must just be misunderstood. Let's send him some plutonium.
Posted by: Joe at February 8, 2008 8:03 AM

Don't you mean Venezuela? Or could you be referring to Columbia University. There's certainly plenty of commie fruits there.
Posted by: V the K at February 8, 2008 8:26 AM
"Communism isn't gone yet. Unless China, Cuba, and North Korea changed overnight..."
Ah, but, last time I checked, none of those countries are considered European homelands.
Glad to see my tax dollars are going to pay knowledgeable sages like you to teach our children in our public schools!
Posted by: hashfanatic at February 8, 2008 8:29 AM
Hash,
You gotta have a job to pay taxes.
Send me a resume.
Posted by: Joe at February 8, 2008 8:39 AM
Russia is a European nation. If you think Russia isn't still in grips of communism you are deluded hash. Putin is just like Lenin, but more cunning, intelligent and public relations minded. The Russian mafia controlling the black market is just another manifestation of the old communist party controlling the market of goods.
In France it is illegal to work more than 35 hours per week and employers cannot fire anyone and also must give several weeks vacation per year. This is by government mandate. That situation is only baby steps away from total government economic control. In Britain the productive people are taxed so lazy bums can loaf on the dole year in, year out, at the bequest of the state.
Just because these countries don't call themselves communist doesn't mean their policies are directly inspired by Marxist ideals.
Posted by: mandy at February 8, 2008 9:19 AM
Thanks for the correction ref. Columbia.
I meant Hugo Chavez from Venezuela.
My point being: there is a huge threat, and shrinking the military may not be in our best interest.
Does anybody have a thought concering Vladimir Putin's interests?
We definitely need a president who can repair our relationships with both Europe and the far East.
As for hashpipe,
Thanks for the tax dollars. I can only imagine how hard it must be pouring some rich guy's double latte at Starbucks knowing that 1/3 of your $7.50 hr wage is helping me get through Thanksgiving, Christmas, Spring Break, and grueling hot summer months spent poolside dreaming of how many roadtrips I can take in my Z71 4 wheel drive with the 5.3 liter engine. Thank goodness gas is projected to drop .50 this spring. Now I can drive to Berkely.

Too much importance is placed on the presidency. What really matters is control of the congress. If we can take the House and Senate back with real conservatives (instead of the nutless liberals we're saddled with now) we can keep even Hitlery from doing too much damage. Look how the Republican congress kept HillBillery from completely destroying the republic during their first 2 terms.

Good post Steve,
I agree. The Pres doesn't tell us when to get up in the morning, weather or not we have to serve in the military, or what college we can attend. Unlike some totalitarian countries that still exist. Having complete and total control over there citizens.
We should all be thankful for having for our country and all of it's fine citizens. If it wasn't for freedom we wouldn't have Hash.
Even though he is a hateful brute who despises teachers.
Hash, why are so mean dude? Stop drinking the hateraid!
We teachers are hard working folks trying to mold young minds.

Yeah Joe, people seem to forget that the president isn't a king. His power and authority is strictly defined in Article II, Section 2.
If you listen to the Dems it's clear they don't understand where the legislative authority lies. Obambi keeps saying what he'll do to take care of people. Well, no he won't. Da Pres doesn't have any legislative authority. Article I, Section 1
He can't raise or cut taxes. Article I, Section 7
Congress' authority is strictly defined in Article I, Sections 8 & 9.
Posted by: steve at February 8, 2008 5:55 PM
Thanks Steve,

Posted by: Joe at February 8, 2008 6:26 PM
Your welcome Joe.
I tend to focus more on the Constitution itself.
People are always concerned with their rights, conveniently forgetting that with rights come responsibilities, such as voting, serving on juries (where the real power of the people lies-see jury nullification) and being armed in defense of the republic. (NOT democracy)
The Constitution is widely regarded as little more than a historical document, even among some conservatives. It isn't. It's our charter of government, the rules for the operation of the government, the shackles that bind the passions of men. The Constitution is what makes our government legitimate. Without it the government exists under the divine right of kings and the Bill of Rights is meaningless.

The ghost of Ronald Reagan
