House Republicans Feeling Blue
WASHINGTON–House Republicans just can’t seem to catch a break.
First, they lose three special elections in a row, including one on Tuesday night in a once solidly GOP district in Mississippi. There, Democratic Travis Childers trounced his GOP opponent even after Republicans pumped more than $1 million into the contest and ran ads trying to link Childers to Democratic presidential contender Barack Obama.
Now, the House GOP’s new election slogan—“The Change You Deserve”—has come under withering ridicule. It happens to be the very same slogan used in ads for Effexor, an antidepressant drug. Just imagine the fun Democrats can have with that.

Logic-
“You liberals…” in my case you would be wrong, I am not a liberal, I am radical who took to heart the Declaration of Independence, the US Constitution, the Sermon on the Mount, and, the precept that “all men are created equal”.
I find it irresponsible for so-called “conservatives” to be so focused on their own little plot, that they are willing to give up these hard fought documents because they are afraid.
But I guess, given that the current Vice-President has declared himself not part of the Executive, nor the Legislative branch and thus outside the Constitution, the neo-cons should proudly proclaim themselves the Royalists and Tories they really are.
Have fun.
