"Every Republican I know looks at the Bush administration as a total failure,"

Perhaps herein lies the beginnings of justice:

"Every Republican I know looks at the Bush administration as a total failure," said Matt Towery, chairman of Newt Gingrich's political organization.

“To do what he did politically to us is unforgivable," Rep. Tom Tancredo told Alexander. "It will take generations to recover. I don't know how long; maybe never."

"I think the legacy is that Karl Rove will be a name that'll be used for a long, long time as an example of how not to do it," said long-time GOP strategist Ed Rollins.

1. yes - but is it not necessary for their very survival?

Seems to be politically-motivated to me.

2. how not to do what??:

trash the Constitution?

loot the Treasury?

bankrupt the country?

destroy the morale of the nation?

develop massive hatred for the USA abroad?


...looks to me like they did exactly what they intended to do...

3. Screw 'Em.

They rolled with the pack for how many years, and now that they didn't get the results they wanted, they cry failure? Whatever.

4. “To do what he did politically to us is unforgivable," WTF?

* did what * did with the help and support of ALL the repukes!

6. I think he means that he got so unpopular, it rubbed off on them.

He made the unpopularity of Republicanism and conservatism patently obvious. Now they can't continue the nice scam they had going for the last 30 years.

8. I know, they did kind of follow along in lockstep

so, they should STFU

[BurtWorm]

14. No they shouldn't STFU. They should air their grievances and piss each other off.

5. "what he did politically"

of course they don't mind the other crap.... just how he screwed the party.

And I notice it took them a few years to long to notice. I have little sympathy.

11. Yeah, it's all about THEM. Fuckem'--they voted with him all the way. nt

7. Republicans are Republicans, there is no separation. Liars.

Newt is part of the problem, vastly so.

If Bush is a failure and the wish to separate themselves from him (HA!), then why did republicans shoot down a windfall profit tax against gas companies? Want an economic stimulus? Tax the amazingly rich.

Talking out the sides of their mouths.

9. I knew a lot of Republicans who hated Bush in 2004

However, Rover and his media allies were so effective at demonizing Kerry that they ended up holding their noses and voting Bush as the lesser of two evils.

10. they get what they deserve.

what these repigs have to remember that the neo cons do not care about the republican party they are only in it for themselves. I wish I could find that quote made by big ole dick that he does not think about the party, or something like we are not in it for the Party.

12. So their wayward son crashes his fuel truck into the American people's schoolbus

and the Repuke party boys are upset about their damaged reputation and popularity.

"Look what he's done to us."

13. "Every Democrat I know looks at the Republican Party as a total failure," said FSogol

Don't let the GOP distance themselves from Bush. Bush is the logical conclusion of the GOP's failed policies.

15. And Towery, Tancredo and Ed Rollins are successes?
