"Center Right" Part Deux of a Potentially Infinite Number

Rich Lowry got the "ctr. rt." talking points too. (We weren't even looking for further evidence, it just crossed our electronic path, not unlike a rattlesnake slithering towards the early morning sun.)

Was it brought on by congressional corruption, Bush administration incompetence, intellectual exhaustion or John McCain's failings as a candidate? All of the above -- and then some.

Where to start? If by John Sidney III's failings he means "Duh, I don' know nothin' 'bout no 'conomizin'" he may have gotten one center right. We also note it's not the first time conservatives have denied their own at the first sign of whatever it is that gives them these hissy fits.

But that was a reaction to the malfeasance of Richard Nixon, a president whom conservatives never truly considered one of their own. Bill Clinton won in 1992, but with only 43 percent of the vote and over an incumbent Republican, George H.W. Bush, whom conservatives had already repudiated.

You think Richie Rich would want to repudiate a few others as well, especially after bringing up lobbyist Jack Abramoff, but no.

The shepherd of the Republican congressional majority that was swept out of power in 2006 was conservative stalwart Tom DeLay

Yes, Tom DeLay, conservative stalwart, w/ the emphasis on the "wart." If Rich doesn't realize how much better off the Rs are sans DeLay, well... Sadly for purposes of abuse, much of what Richie goes on to say makes sense. (It can happen. And it's somewhat more perceptive than the "autopsy" kindly provided by these clowns.) There is a great big fucking Republican elephant in the room that Lowry ignores: the Occupation of Iraq (Where is that oil we were promised?) & the stalemate (Or whatever the fuck it is, anyone who has any idea of what is up in Afghanistan is welcome to let us in on it.) in the space between between Iran & nuclear-armed (Need we add?) Pakistan. His only mention of the world beyond our shores?

In 2006, voters set out to punish Republicans for loose practices in Washington [...] and the mishandling of the Iraq war.

Uh-huh. 2006.
