Stupid, lame, and yes - they should just own up to it.

However, after all the vile and venom spewed on signs and websites about Pres. Bush - I'm wondering how far the double standard goes for outrage over such things  ::)


HTFU!  ;)

Not to rush to the defense of libs, but President Bush DID launch a war that's resulted in a few more deaths than were perpetrated by OJ Simpson.

I think you jumped the rails there.

But anyway - my intent was pointing out the double standard, not any defense of Bush.  He was equally crucified before Iraq and no one here was outraged then.  And the McCain bashing out there - no one upset about that?  (and before you ask - no, I'm not upset by any of it)


Guess I'm just being cold-hearted again.

The obvious difference: Bush deserves it.  ;)

Perpetrating deaths?   ::)

Definitely a rail jumper.  Or a reach around.

We're not talking some surrogate website here, a'la HuffPo or RedState. We're talking about an official wing of the Grand Old Party.

There IS a difference.

This is a lot funnier if you have ever been in Pemberton.

Official wing?  They aren't even linked to the local wing of the party...

Todd Riffle, spokesman for the New Jersey Republican State Committee, said the state party isn't tied to local Republican clubs

If I went down to the local university and met with a Democratic club on campus - would I not see/hear slogans of equal nuttiness about Bush?  Are they to be associated as an official wing of the Democratic Party?  I certainly wouldn't make that leap.  Besides, were I an Obama supporter I'd welcome such slogans by an 'official wing' of the Republican Party - the nuttier the other side gets the better Obama looks.  One of the seldom used tactics in politics is to allow your adversary the time and space to make fools of themselves.  Problem is, most politicians and parties cannot keep their mouths shut about anything.




And boy, I hate to be seen as any supporter of Bush (and its really not about him at all) - but sometimes it gets a little thick around here.
