Today’s GOP: You can’t reason with crazy

By Gene Lyons May 11, 2012 10:54PM

After the comprehensive failures of President George W. Bush, conservatives faced a hard choice: rethink or go crazy. For too many, the election of Barack Obama appears to have made it a no-brainer. Millions have chosen the comforts of delusion, envisioning the ordinary give-and-take of politics in a democracy as an apocalyptic struggle between good and evil.

In a presidential election year, the evidence is everywhere. Two weeks ago, Florida GOP Rep. Allen West told a gathering of constituents that he knew of “78 to 81” congressional Democrats who are members of the Communist Party. Almost needless to say, West failed to name even one. Hardly anybody noticed, and certainly not the “severely conservative” presumptive Republican nominee, Mitt Romney. snip

Longtime GOP congressional aide Mike Lofgren wrote last year in explaining his resignation, “the Republican Party is becoming less and less like a traditional political party in a representative democracy and becoming more like an apocalyptic cult, or one of the intensely ideological authoritarian parties of 20th century Europe.”

For Obama to succeed where Bush had failed also had the potential to reduce the GOP to a powerless bloc of neo-Confederate whiners for a generation. So Obama had to fail at all costs.

Crazy can’t be reasoned with. Only defeated.

Yeah we are the crazy ones, when it is the left who is clinging to policies that have not only failed but made things worse, and they will happily vote for more of them.  :whatever:

15. That is the point, isn't it?

Conservative-speak defines "entitlement" in a given way, and condemns a program by labelling it an "entitlement." No amount of "calling them out" or "making a fool of them" is going to cause a change. Instead, we find the Left echoing the Right's definition of the word, and thus allowing the Right to frame the debate.

"Irrefutable facts" are irrelevant when dealing with the Crazy. In fact, there is no such animal.

When one bases his opinions on faith, he cannot be refuted with reason.

The left is faith based, only their faith is in government and socialism. No matter how many signs there are of how bad things have gotten under 0bama they still sing his praises and blame the GOP and Bush for anything bad, meanwhile if anything at all is good 0bama gets the full credit.

4. When beliefs are not founded in fact... no facts can persuade them otherwise.

Everything I believe in is fact based.

11. They aren't going to come back to reality, are they? We have to move ahead without them.

I am in reality, and reality is looking very grim for this country, scores of unemployed, scores of underemployed, a nation with a declining credit rating, a nation that is set to become one where the takers outnumber the producers, and the takers demand more and more from the producers. Those on the left see this as progress somehow. When the system collapses it won't be the "reality based" progressives who survive it will be those of us who were not fooled by the parlor tricks and lies of the left our entire lives who will survive and be the ones who will have to rebuild our country.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.
