And, yes, the Republican Medicare Prescription is a redistribution of wealth from the young to the old.

Republican socialism is and has been their airline company bailout, their auto company bailouts, their NON-regulated bank bailouts, their "No Child Left Behind" program, their socialist Medicare Prescription scheme, their proclivity for farm subsidies, their federally REGULATED bank bailouts, their insurance company bailouts, their 'Faith-Based Initiatives', their ethanol mandates, their endless pork-barrel spending, their Wall Street investment firm bailout, their $85 billion AIG bailout; additionally, Republicans believe in social engineering in Iraq and nation building in foreign countries more than here in the good ole USA.

Republicans have been instructed to charge Obama with being a "socialist." Once the tables are turned and Republicans are charged with being "a bunch of socialists," these same card-carrying Republicans have been instructed to obfuscate the meaning of Socialism. Republicans now say "Show me ONE definition of Socialism in a reference book that says getting Social Security is the definition of Socialism?" or they strenuously deny that the 'redistribution' of wealth is socialism. All this obfuscation is intended to hide the fact that the Republican party has a slobbering love affair with their brand of socialism.

Dupes of the Republican party's propaganda machine say that the libs prevented Bush from winning early on in Iraq by forcing him to keep the gloves on. Proof that conservatives are idiots. General Petreaus strategy in Iraq and Afghanistan is to keep the gloves on. Dang, these conservatives would not know what Blitzkreig meant in 1944. These idiots would think it was rolling a depth charge off the back end of a tin can. DOLTS!
Republicans say this of their stumbling in Iraq; "First we would be done and would have already quit spending money in Iraq if ya'll peace lovers would have allowed us to simply kill people and break their things." Nice, so it wasn't your Republican party running the show in Iraq, but the leeberals. These Republicans want America to forget that George W. Bush was president from January, 2001 through January, 2009! These Republicans are CLUELESS about General Petraeus's technique for running an effective counterinsurgency. Perhaps they know more than him, and again, maybe they do not.

I do not believe it was the real reason was [sic] an extramarital affair. I believe it was Benghazi. He refused to be the fall guy. When did an affair ever stop a Democrat. If anything…. Perhaps one of Obama’s many Muslim Brotherhood advisors are on the shortlist to replace him.

Petraeus Resignation Is an Obama Plot to Put a Muslim in Charge of the CIA - Just another stealth shariah plot by BHO The right wing universe is now in full-bore conspiracy theory mode over the resignation of CIA Director David Petraeus, just as I predicted. It’s a case study in the conservative movement’s decline into bad craziness; they’re all muttering darkly about cover-ups and hidden connections and “questioning the timing.” One of the most brain-dead of the wingnuts, loony hateblogger Pamela Geller, has a typical post on the subject; for her it’s all part of the Islamic supremacist stealth shariah takeover of America, of course:

I don’t believe for a second that the Republican Party is going to be able to reverse this downward spiral; the appeals to racism and xenophobia are far too ingrained in the very identity of the GOP. I predict that the trends will go in the exact opposite direction — even more extremist — and the party will continue purging moderates and pandering to the far right and the religious right, only more so. I believe the only changes we’ll see will be changes for the worse. It would be wonderful if I’m proven wrong, but I won’t be.

Now, many young Republicans worry, they are the ones in the hermetically sealed bubble — except it’s not confined to geography but rather a self-selected media universe in which only their own views are reinforced and an alternate reality is reflected. What Republicans did so successfully, starting with critiquing the media and then creating our own outlets, became a bubble onto itself.
