Bay Buchanan on D.L. Hughley: GOP Derangement Syndrome.
Even after a resounding defeat, Republican talking heads like Bay Buchanan continue to insist that America is a centre right country and that Republicanism has not been rejected as Bush was "not a Republican".
The Iraq war, Guantanamo Bay, tax cuts for the rich, deregulation, extraordinary rendition, the suspension of Habeas Corpus, I could go on and on and on but you get the point. Which of these hallmarks of the Bush administration were not Republican?
People like Buchanan have spent the last eight years defending this shit, so it's a bit rich to watch them now claim that Bush didn't govern like a Republican.

actually, she's is right, he wasn't conservatives. But what did that make the conservatives? Yellowdog Republicans that's what! Lemmings following who ever leads the pack..is that what it means to be conservative??
Somehow me thinks so..

Oh, Bush was never conservative, but they defended everything he did at the time and implied that anyone who disagreed with his lawbreaking was a traitor.
don't I know it. It was (I'm saying "was" phew) so ridiculous when this whole drama unfolded and living here. To a European of any persuasion, one would never feel like a traitor solely for disagreeing..but here..it's definitely still backwards in that regards..

It's shocking the way that happens in your country, Ingrid. Over here, there were many people who disagreed with me over the Iraq war, but they called me a lefty, they never, ever, implied that I was not patriotic.
