After An Entire Morning, Republicans Yet To Save America

Well played, sir.

However, what have you written for me lately?

Glenn Beck !

That is hilarious. Thank you. However, as a reasonable person I’m willing to give them a couple of weeks to solve our problems, before I begin being overly critical. I’ll go easy for a couple of weeks but if numbers don’t turn around by the end of Nov, I’ll be pissed.

As one of the sowers of discord say, “Don’t retreat, reload”.

Almost clever.

A fairly amusing way at stomping your little foot that main stream American voters expressed their disgust with the far left agenda at the ballot box. A tantrum without a tantrum. A defense of progressives without a defense of progressives.

Like I said…almost clever.

Jon Bershad… Hummmmm… I have never, ever, heard anyone quote Jon Bershad. I have never, ever, heard anyone ever mention Mediaite in a conversation about politics. I come to this site because I refuse to buy cable and sometime I like to see clips from the news shows I can’t watch. I don’t think the columnist opinions on Mediaite matter one iota in the national discussion. It’s sort of like “Jon Bershad” doesn’t even exist. hehe

Thanks for expressing the sentiments of millions of us. When, oh, when will real change show up?

Ah, thanks. I was about to do a search for an example of smug arrogance. You saved me the effort — as did the previous post in the search for an example of “patronizing attitudes”.

Funny… just f-ing funny is all I have to say. Strong work.

730 days to go…. :o)

Anyone expecting anything of substance from the GOP will be disappointed

Expect them to want radical changes that have 0% chance of passing OR simply blocking anything/everything Obama

That is their change

BIGOT!

They must be doing something right. I just saw President 0bama give a speech without the use of a teleprompter! That is change I can believe in!

Wonderful article Mr.Bershad.Thanks.

yeah, who do we vote for in 2012, obama no failed, republicans no failed, shit what are we to do

So far I give Republicans a 51% disapproval rating! Thumbs up if you agree!

It’s now time for the tea party movement to get stronger. In addition to trying to correct the direction from left to right, now would be a great time to start selecting an Independent candidate to run for President in 2012. Neither the Dem nor Reps Party of Career Politicians can provide the leadership we need.

While not all issues are clear cut, there are three major political divisions in the country based on different philosophies.

On the left are those who think more government control, distribution of wealth by controlling income, and providing full Entitlement Support to an ever larger percentage of Americans. 20%

On the right are those who think a vastly decreased government size, fewer regulations on business and banking, a strong capitalistic business model, and less governmental control of individual decisions. 20%

In the middle are the moderates. We prefer to focus on Individual Rights, Individual Responsibilities, Loyalty to family, community and country, and Compassion for those who actually need help. We have too many career politicians who think they are Entitled to be in power. Moderates intend to elect politicians willing to provide the intended services of the position. Focus is on a smaller government at both Fed and State levels to only provide those services actually wanted by the people; the focus is away from trying to provide for the world and to establish a heaven on earth.

Life goes on, and moderates mostly want both extremes to chill out.

Letter from the void:

It’s true I hate orange people. I don’t think they’re inferior and I think it’s fine if they want to have a life partner and all, but we shouldn’t be granting special rights to orange people. A soldier shouldn’t have to wonder if the orange person next to him in the foxhole really has his back. And civil unions for orange people is cool, but marriage? What’s next, orange vegetables? Should carrots be allowed to marry? What about carrot/human hybrid babies!? No, we have to draw a line somewhere and for me, it starts at Speaker of the House. Vote Dem 2012! ;-)

Give then till tomorrow. It was 2 days in when Obama came out and said he was closing Gitmo.OOPS

What was it that Obimbo keeps saying about getting the car out of the ditch? Obimbo’s car went of a cliff, and it’s going to take some major bodywork to get his piece of junk-car fixed!

Oooh, this will be fun.

Here’s my left-wing Norbit impression:

The American People WILL Reclaim their Freedom come Nov. 2012. The Far Right in This Country Will be Soundly DEFEATED!!!!!11 The Totalitarian FASCISTS will Learn to LISTEN to the American PEOPLE!!!

NOV. 2012 CANNOT COME SOON ENOUGH!!!!!!!11

Hows THAT for hyperbole??

Needs a little work. You weren’t as condescending in total stupidity as you needed to be to properly simulate Norbit, notsoswift, etc. I think you could enhance it with a declaration of total falsehood that serves as the premise upon which your hatreds are built – like “since we all know conservatives believe women and non-whites are inferior animals that should be enslaved and beaten until death, blah blah blah…” you know, that sort of thing. ;-)

They inherited too much from the previous administration and all that other crap that Obama says.

paul, quit showing you bigotry

Sorry to sound like a broken record, but please read the Constitution. This is where the rules can be found to how this country runs. This is where you will see why nothing will change until early next year.

I’m surprised that someone in your position didn’t know that.

Well, it will take a lot of time and hard work, but I’m bound and determined. :^D

The rules are in the bible. Everyone knows that. Surprised you didn’t.

Lol.

You missed the “great” speech – about how WE ‘disrupted’ HIS plans!

Good article. Not that anything will change if one of our newly elected happens to read it. In reality, it doesn’t matter who wins what, they’re all the same. Nothing but fools saying foolish things. Elect me! I’ll save the economy! If you elect me, I can promise, your problems will be over!

Good god, every single one of them is nothing but an airheaded idiot spouting usless words about how they will save the country.. What a lot of bullcrap, and a waste of money, even having these elections. Its the old same old same old everytime they come around. Nothing more than but false promises.

Great Jon, I guess your Obama kneepads are worn out.

The message was sent last night to STOP Obama and the progressive agenda so if nothing happens today, well that is a good thing. Next up, stopping the EPA and their idiotic attacks on business. And by the looks and sound of your leader he will lose votes from the Dems trying to keep their jobs in the next election.

“Radical” changes will include Rolling Back “Radical” legislation that the country didn’t want like Obamacare. Did you know Pelosi did not allow floor debate on amendments even one time on amendments to bills over the last 2 years? Probably not since you only hear that Republicans just say no. Well the people said no yesterday and will continue to say no for the next 2 years until the next wave of firings on both sides.

The stench of ignorance & evil is already spreading. Murcuh’s ill-educated, ill-bred misfits begin to take center-stage. Gnawing on the skeletal remains of what is left after 20 of 29 years of Repunk leadership.
You Little People deserve what you shall get. The rest of us do not. Be very careful.

Funny….and I really like that idea about using the remote to vote…

What a waste of column space.

Well, yes, he may have expressed the sentiments of millions of Americans. Fortunately he didn’t express the sentiments of many many more millions of Americans.

I support your efforts 100%! :D

I’m almost glad Republicans took the House, and I’m almost sorry they didn’t get the Senate, too. After two years of carping, they’re now going to have to participate in fixing the unemployment and economic problems. According to conservatives, the free market is the cure-all, despite the fact that we had a free market the entire time. This can only get worse. Let”s hope they don’t again find a way to blame Democrats, instead of the laissez-faire capitalism, where the blame really belongs. I truly think this might be a good thing for the country, which will prove once and for all who causes what.

I wish you guys would stop calling the changes to health insurance as Obamacare. It’s more accuate to name it Romneycare. The bill was modeled after the changes Romney instituted in Massachusetts, which makes me wonder how he’ll be able to run for president on the conservative ticket with a record like that.

Radical changes? You must be talking about Obama and the Marxist progressive regime but totally disregard the will of the people while it shelved a gargantuan healthcare bill that will end up breaking the bank, nationalizing car companies and banks and throwing the taxpayers money away on bailouts for their cronies.
Just what does substance mean to you? Restoring our constitutional republic bringing the federal government back under its restrictions is what it means to me, not going down the European-style socialist road that the European countries are desperately trying to get out of now. I suppose we should thank Obama he was exactly the guy we needed to wake Americans up as to how far off the road and into the swamp we were driven.

We prayed for change and now we got it but this is only the beginning.

You mean, we get to go back to the policies that got us here? I don’t know if that’s really considered “change.” I think that’s more like a dog eating its own vomit.

Ding Dong the witch is Dead! **poof** goes Pilosi! yah, i got my drink in hand………GOOD LUCK JOHN

Jon Bershad, tisk, tisk, you are such a poor loser. Whining on about “An Entire Morning” in your headline then finishing with “We’re going to beat you up bad next time.”

You remind me of a six year old who didn’t get his way. Maybe losing will be good for your character.

Who, pray tell, are “You Little People” that you are referring to? And who are “The rest of us” ?

Does “Nachi” mean “Privledged Character” in some language?

Remember, that language isn’t used here.

I believe he’s referring to the capacity of your cerebellum… but I could be wrong. ;-)

Yes, we get it Jon. The Dems took a “shellacking” because the country does not ascertain the particulars of policy, and is a dumb and impatient lot.

You’ll forgive the president if he confines THAT message to insider fund raising correspondence, as usual…won’t you?…

Meanwhile, we’ll try to forgive you for a self-indulgent, condescending, and disingenuous “column” that was only meant to amuse your fellow politicos.

Relax. Take a deep breath. Back away from that open window. Take the noose from your neck. Fix a Martini. It’ll all look better in the morning.

Listen to all of you ass wipes, no, you aren’t worth the wipes rubbing against my ass for that matter…while you talk shit about obama, “your mother son” and the many other orange faces that you see “of your father”. Yeah, that’s right~your father love of the orange color for everthing it was worth. Riches, land, labor, babies,…This is too your shame isn’t it, you idiots…God will require of you in the end…you hate mongers. rapist, and thieves!!!

Thanks for the shorthand which reads: John Bershad. That’s all I’ll need to avoid anything bearing it. Genuine time-saver. Bye bye.

Tell you what… Give the Tea Party Republicans the White House and BOTH houses of Congress for TWO YEARS (with a 2/3 majority in the Senate) – like the Democrats had with Obama/Pelosi/Reid – THEN we can talk about “not having accomplished anything”.

AND, I’m not talking about the GOP “Party Elites” (like we had “last time”: Bush/Hastert/Frist) – I’m talking CONSERVATIVE Republicans.

Mr. Obama COULD have pushed through ANYTHING he wanted to – and THIS (economy/unemployment) is what we have to show for it.

NOW it’s time for RESPONSIBLE ADULTS to take the keys away from the children who have been running things for the past TWO YEARS (or FOUR years, in the case of Pelosi/Reid), and get the country back on the RIGHT PATH for economic growth (that’s Growth in the PRIVATE sector, not more Government).
