Barbara's Daily BuzzFlash Minute for November 10, 2008

BARBARA'S DAILY BUZZFLASH MINUTE

Preying on the religious sentiments of the radical right and the political leanings of the liberal left, Newt Gingrich, the consummate Repuglican, who is neither Moses nor Martin Luther King Jr., is attempting to make political hay in the Repuglican Party out of the chaos and confusion, that he himself had a hand in creating -- first he likens himself to Moses, "Newt Gingrich has let it be known that ..." he "... is willing to serve as chairman of the national party and lead it out of the wilderness", then he compares himself to Martin Luther King, Jr., by saying, "... ‘He fully appreciates the urgency of the moment.'" It's that kind of arrogance that can only be attributed to the Repuglican "brand" and Newt Gingrich!

"The game has begun" -- Rush Limbaugh for once was right about the shenanigans that have already started -- it seems the Repuglican approach is to first praise Obama and then stick a knife in his back! "Sean Hannity ... insisted on feigning a post-election detente, telling his Fox News television audience last week, ‘I want Barack Obama to succeed.' Didn't he think anyone would notice that, just a moment later, he was back parroting the failed campaign argument that Obama is a ‘mystery'? ‘I fear [this] is the guy that has these radical associations 20 years ago,' Hannity added, an odd way of demonstrating support for the new commander in chief." These die hards will never give up, obviously they are too stubborn and too stupid to realize the American people rejected the Repuglican "brand" of nasty, dirty tricks, of psychopathic psychologically driven innuendo, and polluted political rhetoric along with the Repuglican back-stabbing and underhanded campaign tactics, even though their "candidate" McCain lost! Besides this is how these guys make millions of dollars, for them it's a ME and MY POCKETBOOK first universe; concession and "Country First", insofar as it interferes with their bank accounts, has never been nor will it ever be part of their political make-up!!! Yes, it has only just begun!!!!

"Joe the Plumber, a recipient of Welfare: Now that's a wingnut." For a guy who condemns "socialism", he sure doesn't mind reaping the benefits of helping the needy!!! "Joe's" 15 minutes are over, and it just goes to show how lax the McCain campaign really was when it comes to vetting! Now that's a HOOT!

"A Quiet Windfall For U.S. Banks With Attention on Bailout Debate, Treasury Made Change to Tax Policy." The title of this book will be "How the dummies bankrupted America" or maybe "How George Bush gave Bin Laden his victory"! First the Bushies gave billions away in Iraq, and now they are giving billions away right here at home! Don't tell me that some of that cash didn't find its way into the pockets of the friends of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney! Bush/Cheney should have been impeached long ago, while we as a country could still afford the process!!!

Unfortunately for us and for America the answer to this question, "Can the Republicans Change?" "is NO, NO, and NO again!!! The truth is "modern Republicans are tied inextricably to slash-and-burn politics" and they will never change! Conservatism has been "infiltrated" and "preempted" by fanatical and radical extremists and they are now the mainstay of the Repuglican Party!!!

Just in case you thought Sarah Palin was maligned and misrepresented, take a look at what the Secret Service had to say: “Sarah Palin blamed by the US Secret Service over death threats against Barack Obama -- Sarah Palin’s attacks on Barack Obama’s patriotism provoked a spike in death threats against the future president, Secret Service agents revealed during the final weeks of the campaign.”  As far as I’m concerned "whack job" is most certainly an appropriate description of Ms. Palin and we will never forget what she had done, not in 4 years, not in 8 years, not ever!
