CPAC’s Sad Spectacle

Republican Elephant - Wingers in Space - http://mariopiperni.com/

Checking in at CPAC.

Wayne LaPierre

“It’s gonna be people like you and me. That’s who they’re tracking. That’s who they’re after. The names of good, decent people, all across this country, who happen to own a firearm, to go into a federal database with universal registration of every lawful gun-owner in America. That’s their answer to criminal violence? Criminalize 100 million law-abiding gun owners in a private transfer? Build a list of all the good people? As if that would somehow make us safe from violent criminals and homicidal maniacs? That’s their answer? Are they insane?”

Crazy, crazy man.

Mitt Romney

“As someone who just lost the last election, I’m probably not in the best position to chart the course for the next one.”

Correct. Bye.

Donald Trump

“I’ve made over 8 billion dollars…I’ve employed tens of thousands of people and yet I’m continually criticized by total lightweights all over the place. It’s unbelievable. It really is unbelievable.

“I think if Mitt made one mistake — and I like Mitt a lot — it’s that he didn’t talk enough about his success,”

Eight billion dollars. Lovely..but the pic below is all you need to know about Trump’s CPAC appearance and the lack of respect even conservatives have for this clown.

Rick Perry

“The popular media narrative is that this country has shifted away from conservative ideals, as evidenced by the last two presidential elections. That’s what they say,” Perry said. “That might be true if Republicans had actually nominated conservative candidates in 2008 and 2012.”

Keep on pushing those conservative ideals, Rick. It worked really so well for you guys last time around.

Rand Paul

“Does it really take $3 million to discover that monkeys, like humans, act crazy on meth?” Paul asked to laughter from his audience.

Any mention of science is always good for a laugh or two at a conservative gathering.

If you missed Louie Gohmert’s “Vietnam was winnable” comment, see here.

Bottom line: Obama won a second term because of these clowns and Hillary is going to win a couple more for the very same reason.

    GO HILLARY…!!!…
    If H runs…it’s pretty much a lock on the presidency…that would give us 16 years of of a Democratic president…
    And by 2016 we should start seeing more of the purple states turning a little more blue…

    Crack the gerrymandering up a little bit….and we could see some strong Democratic leadership in BOTH houses…

    Wouldn’t that be great…!!!

  2. susan mallory says:

    It warms my heart to watch Republicans stumble their way through this post-election period as clueless as they’ve ever been. It bodes well for Democratic fortunes down the road.

  3. E.A. Blair says:

    In order to overcome the current gerrymandering, we’ll have to have either a dramatic change in the law regarding how districts are redrawn or the Democratic Party will have to be in firm legislative control between 2020 and 2022 so they can respond to whatever changes get reported by the 2020 census.

    About hundred years ago, the Republican Party deliberately blocked the reporting of the results of the 1920 census because they could see that the urban population shift was concentrating voters into Democratic cities and cause a loss of Republican influence. There was no redistricting until after the 1930 census.

    Timing is everything. Having a continued Democratic presence in the White House will help get the RATS* out of SCOTUS, but the farther future depends on the census and the states.

    *RATS = Roberts, Alito, Thomas, Scalia

  4. John Liming says:

    The “spectacle” may seem to be “sad” for some people but I thoroughly enjoy watching the nut wads go bonkers because they are faced with a truth too horrible for many of them to believe – - the truth that their entire ideology is based on pure, unadulterated manure and there doesn’t seem to be a thing any of them can do about it. I’m lovin’ it!

  5. alwaysoccupy says:

    Mario’s pic of the elephant with a republican up his butt suggests that the smell will last longer than they want and will detract the electorate from voting for them. Something stinks in the Republican party and no air freshener will solve the stench of bigotry and prejudice that permeates through the ranks.

  6. Carol says:

    About the bull pucky from LaPierre, the Gun Manufacturers’ stooge: How about that “good” American Mom who purchased her assault rifle legally? How’d THAT work out for her, Wayne? and the innocents at Newtown….including her son.
