Get a Spine
The Republican Party likes to think of itself as the staunch defenders of all that is right with America. They are standing strong as defenders of liberty and morality, and all that is just.
There is only one thing wrong with this. They do not stand strong. They have no spine.
Three Republican leaders, in the last two weeks, have said the equivalent of “Rush Limbaugh is an idiot”.
Again, this was said by Republican leaders, not Democrats.
Why did they say it? Because Rush Limbaugh is an idiot. His moronic pronouncements, if followed by the party, will move the Republicans further and further right.
How did moving further and further right work in the last election? Just ask John McCain.
So Rush says something over-the-top stupid like “I hope Obama fails.” It doesn’t matter that if Obama fails the country might suffer economic catastrophe. Rush hopes for disaster because it would somehow validate his own fiscal credentials. (Rush, you know this does not hold water scientifically, but you also know your followers aren’t exactly scientists…)
Anyway, these types of crazy statements might possibly alienate a percentage of the centrist voters, so the three Republican leaders disavowed that Rush is the leader of the Republican Party, and said really nasty things about him like “he is an entertainer”. Vicious.
Oops.
Within 24 hours, each and every “leader” had placed his lips on Rush’s gargantuan ass, and publicly begged him for forgiveness. These are obviously not “leaders”, they are just Rush followers. Pathetic.
Dear GOP “Leaders”:
You make us sick. Be conservative, we don’t care, but have a spine. When you say something, mean it.
You always get on liberals for being soft-hearted. You guys are being soft-headed. Tough up. Tell Rush to take a flippin’ hike and stick with it.
Stand by your own words. You know Rush is a pinhead. You are just too big of a coward to say it out loud.
We hate to give away trade secrets, but here is a clue: Make some effort to reach out to the middle. Hint: Rush ain’t the middle.
