Noticed your post omits her bashing Olbermann as well.

Just trying to stay on topic in this thread.

The GOP is far from dead....let's go Newt!

The libs are getting too Huffie....

Frank Schaeffer's opinions and experiences mirror my own alot..... working class evangelicals felt betrayed by Jimmy Carter (Carter was a millionaire populist peanut farmer who had more in common with the Trilateral Commission than the working man), and then Ronald Reagan filled that void..... at that time, the moderate Republican argument was not so much against Roe v. Wade as it was also against federally funded abortions/states' rights/parental consent laws to limit access to "abortion on demand"... reasonable ideas that implied labor unions were too powerful, and that taxes on the top tier of wage earners at rates of 70% with massive loopholes is remarkably unfair to all of us unless we're politically connected...

That was then, this is now....

I predict the real future of the Republican party through the next prez election is going to be in the hands of Mike Huckabee and his followers... he's a much better politician than Sarah Palin, and if he can moderate some of his views on social issues to allow for more RINOs to join the party.........

Aaawww heck, I don't have time to argue how Huck could re-position himself to run the Republican Party, it'll take too long ...  instead I'll post this really cooooooooool picture....
