I am sick and fucking tired of Republicans, conservatives, and GOP kid-touchers getting all pissy about how George W. Bush ruined the Republican “brand”. These are the same people who were screaming for Bush to be appointed in 2000 and who kept him in power in 2004. They are all Bush-enablers who, upon discovering that the majority of Americans had figured out that the Dear Leader was a fetal-alcohol-syndrome fuckwit bent on blowing up the world, decided they might want to distance themselves from him. Too fucking late you piece-of-shit bloodthirsty fucks. This is all your fault.

One of the worst offenders is Newt Gingrich, who took to the pages of Human Events yesterday to whine about how George W. Bush has wrecked an otherwise upright and chaste Republican party. This strains credulity - the Republican party was pretty much cast into the shitter when Gingrich took over, and the seeds of Bush can be found in the insane rantings of that amiable dunce St. Ronnie.

When I saw the Gingrich piece, I of course had to comment (Human Events doesn’t offer a link, so I put it up at Crooks and Liars as well):

Poor Newt - you’ve made your bed and now you have to lie in it. From your hypocritical pursuit of Bill Clinton to your cynical Bush-enabling, you are a disgrace. You and your bloodthirsty party made it possible for a stupid dry-drunk to occupy the White House for eight years. Any sentient being familiar with his biography could have predicted this disaster, but you and your party blithely ignored the danger.

Because of you we are in an endless war with a fourth-rate military power that never attacked us and presented no danger. Sure, Saddam killed people, but not nearly as many and Bush and Cheney. Thousands of soldiers dead, hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis dead, millions of refugees, trillions of dollars wasted. The country is broke, the military is stretched and exhausted, and our civil liberties are disappearing. The federal bench has been filled with subpar, racist judges who will finish dismantling those parts of the republic that Bush and Cheney didn’t get to.

Proud of yourself? Your “brand” should be dead given your track record. Republicanism and “Conservatism” will deservedly end up on the ash heap of history. And no, that blood on your hands won’t wash off.

Wonder how long the comment will stay up (if it’s not gone already) ….
