How is it that liberals can be so worried that these silly, brain-dead Christians could actually turn America into a theocracy? How could silly brain dead people figure out how to do so--especially with all the brilliant, nuaned folks here at Salon and elsewhere on the left working to stop them?
Go ahead and stereotype. You thought Ronald Reagan and W were stupid and they beat your smart and nuanced guys. Just so, Christians do not mind being sterotyped because we are smart enough to know that you win some and lose some but that is not the end of the war.
Conservatives may lose the battle in 2008. But keep in mind that, even if Mr Obama gets over 50% of the vote, it means that there are 40+% who do not agree with the direction that Obama, Pelosi and Reid want to take this country. And they are gonna get really mad if the Dems see this election as a mandate for all things liberal.
So the political battles will continue and, with Bush and Cheney and Palin no longer on the scene, who are the people and the media gonna have to criticise?
O, P and R--and Chris Dodd and Barney Frank and Mr Rangel and Mr Jefferson and Mr Maloney and a whole host of Dems.
The fatal flaw of the left is that they lack the discipline that would keep them from feeding on their own. So it won't be just the conservatives and middle of the roaders criticising the left, it will be the left eating the left as well.
Let the party begin!
