They can't rely on Democratic failure, and related outrages such as were already well written here about the “global warming” scams. (Too many idiots and diseased people believe in and _want_ those scame to befall us.) Logically the Republicans can revive eventually as the taxpayers' party of opposition to at least the worst excesses of the Dems and their vote-buying plunder program, but that's not enough to truly revive the party. It needs to be an attractive, positive alternative to the Dems and with vote-buying by the Dems I can't see how my preference, for government minimization (especially in Washington, long overdue for shrinkage, by up to 2/3 or more if reform were serious) and ethical as well as fiscal reform, will fare given the hordes of entitlement beneficiaries and other fans of Big Government (including so many dishonestly-named “moderates”). Right now an eventual GOP limping along as the Opposition to lib-Dem outrages is about the only thing we can see in the GOP's future.

Now that Palin is working on her 2252nd minute of her 15 minutes of fame, why do we (and by this I mean the collective “we”) seem to keep talking about her? It's not like she is the least bit relevant to the real world, or has any sway/pull over anything important. So why the continuous Palin bashing and worship?

Seems to me it has less to do with Palin, and more to do with the vacuous hole blown through the middle of the current republican party. We talk about her because of the absence of anything worthwhile to say about the entire republican party as a whole. A leaderless, infantile, fissing-fussing-hissing mass of small-minded people, all sound and fury signifying nothing — so instead we focus on the strong personalities and the positions the represent: Palin, Limbaugh, Joe the Fake Plumber, Bachmann.

Until a real, worthwhile, intelligent, solid leader emerges from the decaying morass that makes up the current republican disaster of a party, we will keep looking backwards towards Palin and the other puffed-up style-over-substance leaders that symbolize the dying party.

And yes, a strong leader (or two, or three) *will* emerge. The republican party *will* rise again. It's not a question of “if” but “when” – before 2012, or before 2016? Only time will tell. And only then will the Palins of the world fade back into the frozen tundra of obscurity that the so well deserve.

That alone might explain why so many among the hordes of pathological hate-filled leftists hate her so much.

In the same interview, Obama suggested that his energy policy would require the ruin of the coal industry. “If somebody wants to build a coal-fired plant, they can,’’ he told the Chronicle. “It’s just that it will bankrupt them, because they are going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that’s being emitted.’’

All of this being rushed thru congress in the middle of the largest recession in decades because the Democrats know that come 2010 they will be toast. They are only hoping its the other guy beside them that gets fired and not they themselves personally.

Obama knows quite clearly what hes doing with this Cap and Trade legislation. Hes bankrupting the coal industry…putting staggering prices on consumers all in the name of the Tomorrow afternoon end of the world. When the real agenda is money for his Health care reform.

As Obama stated I do not want to do anything with health care that will add to the deficits. So cap and trade must pass and be in place first so that we can start taxing the crap outta everyone to have health care.

But lets talk about Palin and McCain.

Facts.

!. Al Franken Senator number 60. The die is cast. The democrats can do what they want.
2. Cap and Trade is nothing more then the fascist/socialists Democratic party using the AGW to cover up their acorn/socialist agenda by reaping huge amounts of dollars to pay for their social programs at the expense of the American economy.
3. Global warming is a serious issue but it is also a 2 headed hydra that has another less then honest agenda driven group that only wants the money cap and trade will procure to pay for their social agenda in America. They could give a flying flip about global warming.
4. National health care. You got 60 senators. Go for it. Finish the job. Bankrupt America.

Conclusion. The democrats Cap and Trade fiasco is their IRAQ. In this bill you will find the Democrats massacred at the polls in 2010 when inflation rises to double digits and Obama begins taxing the rich to pay for staggering and back breaking deficits.

Good job democrats. Keep up the good work. In the meantime lets talk about McCain and Palin so that no one knows the Democrats are slipping their Fascist/socialism under the door, in the night when no ones looking and the MSM is cheering them on.

Moderate Reps would be smart to let Palin win the nomination.
