Hopefully this will end the conservative movement

[bballny]

Mr. Bush should resign. If you take an unbiased view of his presidency it has been a disaster. This group of thugs never anticipate and they are never prepared. He is the most uninformed and poorly prepared person I've ever seen. This is his track record of his life. They care more about the PR campaign than they do about the victims. I'm actually glad that Bush won the election because there is no one to clean up his mess and for once and for all we will not be electing any more Bush's. He will go down as our worst president ever and hopefully we will never be electing "inherited wealth to our government again(Forbes, Bush, etc.) Children of inherited wealth(3rd generation) are without a doubt complete losers. This may also kill the conservative movement. That is why Newt was out front in denouncing Bush. He wants to run for the presidency and he sees his conservative movement being drowned in the rancid waters of New Orleans.

1. I agree about the need to resign

The whole Administration needs to resign, and Kerry needs to step up and tell America he'd still like to serve us if we'll still have him. Then we need to have special elections as soon as possible.

2. It won't

Too much money to be made. It took the Great Depression last time, right?

4. It won't. Hopefully it will end the neo-con and authoritarian movements.

3. It won't "end" it, but it will be serious setback for its agenda.

As I said in another thread, the conservative (both neo and paleo) movement has invested so much political capital into Bush that he is synonymous with "conservatism" to so many Americans. If BushCo falls for this, it will take a while before conservatives rebuild any political capital with the American people.

9. Good Internet Pun

I'll give credit to you! IT's a good one.

I think the conservative agenda has been dealt a serious blow. They have overplayed their hand and have been unable to deliver on those things they are perceived to have as strengths.

It's not just the silverspoon thing i hope we've seen the last of. I hope the Repubs realize that it is a poor long term strategy to push forth a suit as empty as Li'l Georgie's. I wouldn't vote for any Repub for prez, but wouldn't McCain be better right now than the idiot prince?

13. "That's what you get when you vote republi-CON...(sigh)"

Everybody start repeating it to everyone and anyone you meet:

"That's what you get when you vote republi-CON...(sigh)"
"That's what you get when you vote republi-CON...(sigh)"
"That's what you get when you vote republi-CON...(sigh)"
"That's what you get when you vote republi-CON...(sigh)"
"That's what you get when you vote republi-CON...(sigh)"
"That's what you get when you vote republi-CON...(sigh)"
"That's what you get when you vote republi-CON...(sigh)"
"That's what you get when you vote republi-CON...(sigh)"
"That's what you get when you vote republi-CON...(sigh)"

Because it's true. This shit is what you get from these "downsize/privatize," cheapskate, short-sighted, stingey, selfish, small-minded, small government assholes.

5. It should certainly end its corpratist/fundamentalist leadership

In 2006, all we'll have to do is smear anyone with R next to his or her name as being in lockstep with the Bush agenda and ask voters if they want more of the same. But that's already started, as shown by Bill Frist's support of teaching evolution and the "Filibuster Fourteen." We might even get enough moderate Republicans to start calling Congress and threatening to vote them out if they don't vote for impeachment!

10. The Great Depression didn't end it; how will Katrina?

Remember, just a couple of years into FDR's first term, a conspiracy was hatched to depose FDR and the Federal government and replace it with a fascist regime. It was only through the bravery of Gen. Smedley Butler that the plot was exposed and defused.

7. These guys will only go down fighting. All or nothing, for them... eom

8. The Conservatives never look at President Bush at all

They are too busy focusing their hatred on us.

Kind of sad when you think about it.

11. Kill the Conservative Movement--Not Likely

As much as it angers me and saddens me to say it, Hurricane Katrina won't kill the so-called "Conservative" movement. It may be weakened for a while, but there are still far, far too many little ivory-tower right-wing ideologues who haven't been forced to re-examine their notions and too many of the right-wing followers who want to believe in "libural" and "big-gummint" bogeymen.

When I was a kid back in the '70's, I was sure that progressivism would triumph if by no other reason than the fact that the Good Guys would outlive the reactionary old farts. Now that I'm pegging fifty, I see with despair that many of the leaders of the so-called "Conservative" movement are my contemporaries and their troops (like Mark Levin and that Michelle Malkin creature) are half my age.

It's going to be a long, tough fight, and the younger generation of progressives is going to be the one that has the hope of seeing the effective end of "Conservatism" as a political force.

12. Hardly. It will be more harm for Dems than Cons

We'll get accused of 'politicizing' Katrina. The help is pouring in, and now it's down to the fingerpointing, and they're WAY WAY better at that than we are. If I worked for the Gov of LA or the Mayor of NO, I'd look for a new job. I don't think they'll be around after the next election. Rove & Co. will be. In force.
