No End Game: How the Treatment of Bowe Bergdahl Will Destroy the Republican Party
We are looking at an unprecedented time in our nation’s history.

With any nation that has a two-party system of government, it is inevitable that the party out of power will feel some kind of animosity toward the party in power. In fact, it is natural. As the party not in power, it is your goal to convince your nation that the party in power is somehow and some way being detrimental to the country through their policy decisions. These decisions could be related to a nation’s safety and security, a nation’s economy, a nation’s immigration system, and a nation’s social issues just to name a few. As a new round of national elections approaches, it is the goal of the party not in power to convince the population at large that they can do better than the current political party in power.

For the Republican Party in the year 2014, they have taken this idea to levels not seen before at any time in American history.

1. You would think!..

From your link, doxydad.. thank you.

"To attack a military POW and his family is the new low for the Republican Party and it could very well be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.

Americans today are becoming more and more put off by the Republican Party. They did not agree with their decision to shut down the government in October of 2013. They do not agree with the Republican Party’s stance on gay marriage. They believe climate change is an issue worth addressing. They believe in a woman’s right to choose. They believe that income inequality is an issue that needs to be addressed. They believe in raising the minimum wage. They believe in common sense gun control legislation."

So... everything that the Dems are for so is the majority of the people? Where have I heard that before?

The leftists always have some reason why they don't get their way... It can't be that the people don't want it. It must be:

*low info voters
*voter fraud
*gerrymandering
*stolen elections
*Da JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

It's always funny to see them list what *they* believe should be the important issues upon which citizens are to focus.

You see, 92,000,000 Americans not working, the labor force being at a 36 year low, having lost 7,000,000 jobs under Dear Leader, and the lethargic economy shouldn't matter.

And if it does matter to you, then it's all Bush's fault. Bush is Hitler.

But they're the smart ones.

November is going to be so much fun.... :evillaugh:
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

This is how the left works.

Reuters has a poll asking if Obama did the right thing by swapping Bergdahl for the Taliban 5.

The title, which is being picked up by other left leaning outlets, reads;

Americans split on prisoner swap of Taliban for U.S. soldier

You read it and decide.

Quote
The Reuters/Ipsos poll of 958 Americans interviewed online found that 44 percent disagreed with the statement that trading Taliban prisoners for Bergdahl was "the right thing to do," with 26 percent of them strongly disagreeing.

Twenty-nine percent of those polled said they thought the prisoner swap was the right thing to do and 27 percent said they were not sure, the poll found.


44% thinks it was the wrong thing to do
29% think is the right thing to do
27% are clueless

Saw that this morning,what a joke.
Of course if they polled 1000 people and 999 were against and 1 for they would still say opinion was split.

Thanks for that breakdown, Dori.  Radio news was also spinning it as a 50/50 split. 

Politicsususa is one of the most insane websites out there.  Poll after poll shows that about 16% or less think that climate change is important. 

Everyone knows that liberals hate military people.  This has been baked into the cake since the 60's.  Their wish that this will be the death of the GOP is laughable.
