		<description>In keeping with the current GOP tendancies, (Joe the Plumber/War Correspondent, Sara Palin/VP Candidate),  the new RNC Chairman should be the candidate with the least amount of qualifications.</description>

		<description>Don&#039;t be too hard on the Republicans.  They are what they are and they can&#039;t help it.  The &quot;new world order&quot; in America is scaring the daylights out of these people and they should not be scared.  Now America is America and hopefully President Obama can regain the respect we used to enjoy.</description>

		<description>Miss Anne, are you aware that once the civil rights bill was signed, the Democrats you describe fled to the Republican party?  The Democrats are the modern heros of the civil rights movement.  The Democrats set into motion, with several historic bills, the Presidency of Barack Obama.  President Eisenhower was one of the best Republican we&#039;ve ever had.  He was worthy of being a modern-day Democrat.  So YOU look up the later part of the history of this country.  LBJ knew when he signed voting rights act he was essentially driving white people from the Democratic party, and he was right.  I&#039;m sure you watched the Republican Convention.  Now is it me or, did that scene NOT look like America today?</description>

		<description>All they need is someone to get the plan from the oil and military/industrial companies and relay it to the rest of the party.
     They are owned by them so why bother and waste time to elect a person to get the way for them to vote, they all can get that by email.</description>

		<description>My suggestion is : Change your evil ways, Move more to the middle,  Stop the racism, Become modern time thinkers and ask members to cooperate with dems to move our country forward.  3 out of 5 would be a miracle. To much to ask?</description>

		<description>Well now that the big meeting of haters, liars and racist is over what are the losers doing other then taking their uniforms (sheets &amp; hoods) to the cleansers? I&#039;m sure they came up with more ways to make themselves seem more superior than the average working person (just can&#039;t use &quot;average working joe&quot; anymore).  I wonder is sarah was there. Oh stupid me. she was up in alaska with her high school dropout daughter givining birth and with the baby daddy and waiting for the court hearing of her pal the drug dealer (mother of the baby daddy). LOL</description>

		<description>&quot;Steele said. “So this notion that I’m a moderate is slightly overblown, and quite frankly a lie.”

However, most Americans are moderates!  And proud to be so!  Much better than being on the radical fringe of either the right or the left!

So when the Republicans blat and brag about not being moderates, they can plan on another 40 years as a regional party ...

No great loss .... don&#039;t let the door hit ya where the Good Lord split ya!</description>

		<description>This statement says it ALL regarding the Republican Party:

&quot;...closed to those not on the committee, nearly two dozen members of the media and a national TV crew were forced to leave the event and wait for news outside the conference room doors.&quot;

It proves that they are STILL the party of GW Bush - surround everything in secrecy! And they&#039;ll go nowhere as long as that holds true.</description>

		<description>If the Repulicans thing they can win any more elections spewing hate and lies, good luck.  They have their own network (Fox noise) on 24/7 filling the airwaves with vile garbage and still can&#039;t win.  I don&#039;t thing it really matters who their chairman is.  Unless they change their whole platform, people will continue to be turned off by them.  You can&#039;t win elections just appealing to your base, which for the Republicans, is shrinking by the day.</description>

		<description>Many of these guys are scary.  As a dem, I hope they pick a Jesse Helms, but hopefully they&#039;ll pick a non-bigot so we can have a reasonable debate about issues.  I like that repubs keep dems in check on spending and moral relativism.</description>

		<description>I find it humorous when Republicans pull out that old &quot;racist&quot; card concerning the OLE Boy Network of the 50&#039;s and 60&#039;s....Hey, folks the Parties were NOT the same....the racist were the people who &quot;switched&quot; parties.....the Republicans were the people who did not want rights given to Blacks and other minorities, just like today...Republicans have always been the ones who shout, &quot;Jesus, Jesus&quot;, while watching some Black man being lynched in the background...but both Parties are filled with racist...I don&#039;t believe that the Dems arms are so open to embrace minorities....Let&#039;s not forget that in the primaries.Barack had to fight against racism and bigotry in his own party...Dems have their &quot;closet racist&quot; too....the only difference is the Dems &quot;sheets&quot; are becoming multi-colored, while the Republican &quot;sheets&quot; are all still &quot;white&quot;....</description>

		<description>Mike, you&#039;re too ignorant (ignant) yourself to know what real ignorance is, but I&#039;ll give you a hint:  George Bush.

One can&#039;t win a battle of wits, when the other side has no ammunition.

Go and read up, I suggest the Encyclopedia Britannica, and then come back with some inkling of how the world works and post your drivel.</description>

		<description>Miss Anne wrote, &quot;... go look up your history! The ones wearing the white hoods and burning crosses were ... were a terrorist arm of the Democratic Party! The Governor standing in front of the Little Rock Nine ... was ... a Democrat! During the civil rights fight, it was Democrat Southern Governor&#039;s who turned the dogs loose and the fire hoses. it was a Republican President [Eisenhower] who fought for equal rights for the black people ... . &quot;

Miss Anne&#039;s facts are correct. What she doesn&#039;t mention is that the party of Eisenhower has absolutely no resemblance to the current right-wing, dingbat conglomeration of voodoo economists, racists, corporate officers, libertarians, and Goldwaterites who currently call themselves Republicans. No Republican since Eisenhower (Nixon, Reagan, Bush, Bush) has done squat for women or minorities. In fact, they have consistently opposed every proposal to enhance their well-being. 

Democrats, prior to 1932, had a shameful history of racism and Conservatism. After Lyndon Johnson rammed through the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the two parties essentially traded places for Southerners. The Democrats became hated Liberals, misceginist, tree-huggers, and pointy-heads. Republicans became the party of white domination, resegregation, and economic oppression. 

It is one thing to be ignorant of history, Miss Anne, but it&#039;s quite another thing to distort it as you did in your post.</description>

After Lyndon Johnson rammed through the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the two parties essentially traded places for Southerners. The Democrats became hated Liberals, misceginist, tree-huggers, and pointy-heads. Republicans became the party of white domination, resegregation, and economic oppression. </p>
<p>It is one thing to be ignorant of history, Miss Anne, but it's quite another thing to distort it as you did in your post.</p>

And then in 1964, a Democratic president signed civil rights legislation into law and said, &quot;With a stroke of a pen, I just delivered the South to the GOP for a generation.&quot;

Nixon&#039;s Southern Strategy, anyone?</description>

Q:  &quot;Blah blah 2nd Amendment&quot;

A:  &quot;The NRA is correct about everything&quot;

Q:  &quot;Blah blah right to privacy&quot;

A:  &quot;The government is allowed to tell women what to do with their bodies&quot;

		<description>Hey folks, go look up your history! The ones wearing the white hoods and burning crosses were identified by Congressional hearings after the Civil War during Grant&#039;s Administration found that the KKK were a terrorist arm of the Democratic Party!  The Governor standing in front of the Little Rock Nine denying them admission to Little Rock High School was Orval Faubus, a Democrat!  During the civil rights fight, it was Democrat Southern Governor&#039;s who turned the dogs loose and the fire hoses..it was a Republican President who fought for equal rights for the black people so please read and look up your facts.  It was a Republican President who called out the National Guard to allow the Little Rock nine attend an integrated high school.  Eisenhower pulled back on Faubus and put him in his place so go look it up, dears</description>

		<description>If the last 8 years have taught us anything, it is that a one-party rule can yield the worst administration in history.  while kathy seems delusional in her view of the past 8 and next 4 years, I fear a one party nation, so the rnc, as distasteful as it may sound, is in the same position as the dems were in 2000.  
I voted Obama (and Kerry and Gore and Perot and Reagan(2) and Ford) and am an independent.  No matter how foul or divisive the rnc may remain or change, it provides us as a nation a choice as to what philosophy of governing we want to lead our great nation.  If the rnc does not change, it provides the dems better footing while giving the voters a comparison.  but one party rule still scares me; after all, all communist and facist regimes are one party countries.</description>

Just think how much money you would save on reading materials because she doesn&#039;t read.  All she knows how to do is have babies and tell other people how to raise their kids.</description>

		<description>Hey Kathy... I&#039;ve already waited and saw what the country has looked like after 8 years of Dubya and the RNC.  Our country has been run into the ditch.

I do think the RNC is bad and believe that things will get much better now that they have lost control of the House, Senate and the POTUS position.

We WILL wait and see what our country is like in four years... and when it&#039;s better and much improved, we&#039;re going to come back on the Ticker here and remind you that the RNC really was BAD and just don&#039;t have a clue how to run our Gov&#039;t.  

And you can apologise and tell all of the Dems that you and the RNC were WRONG and just didn&#039;t know what the heck you were doing or what you were talking about during the Dubya years.

I&#039;ll be waiting for that apology in 4 years...</description>

<p>I do think the RNC is bad and believe that things will get much better now that they have lost control of the House, Senate and the POTUS position.</p>
<p>We WILL wait and see what our country is like in four years... and when it's better and much improved, we're going to come back on the Ticker here and remind you that the RNC really was BAD and just don't have a clue how to run our Gov't.  </p>
<p>And you can apologise and tell all of the Dems that you and the RNC were WRONG and just didn't know what the heck you were doing or what you were talking about during the Dubya years.</p>
<p>I'll be waiting for that apology in 4 years...</p>

		<description>For decades, the republicans have been casting their nets in the upper part of the ocean going after big healthy and wealthy fishes, ignoring the existence of smaller and starving other fishes in the lower part. This time, the democrats&#039; victory with Obama seems to have motivated them to stop being egocentric and discriminative, as they are now considering to reform the party to make it less bureaucratic, less discriminative, less conservative, less secretive, less oppressive, less destructive, and less curse-worthy, for they feel that their party is heading for extinction. It&#039;s about time.</description>

		<description>Which one displayed stigmata?

Which one spoke in tongues?

Which one turned water into wine?

Which one vowed to use the Malleus Malefactorum to purge the nation of sinners?</description>

		<description>How many minorities attended again? Yeah...

How many female nominees were there again? Yeah...

Good thing their&#039;s is the party of inclusion.... Yeah, right!

What?  No women and no minorities?  Nothing but old white-haired guys sitting around in a smoke-filled backroom reminiscing about the good ole&#039; days?  I&#039;m sure their talking about the basics... guns, anti-abortion and stopping gay marriage before it ruins our country for good!!

How DO they know who&#039;s who with all the white hoods on??

They should have invited Joe the Plumber, since he&#039;s now a force to be reckoned with.  Too bad Joe&#039;s on his way to Israel...</description>

		<description>There&#039;s no mystery here, you think the RNC, an organization that lacks in forward thinking is about to choose someone other than a black man.  No, they&#039;re too stupid to think forward.  They just copy what the Dems are doing. 

So let&#039;s see we have a black president, let&#039;s pick a black RNC leader.  They’re  idiots, who would never have picked a black man for anything had it not been for Barack.  They&#039;ll pick one of those mean-spirited black guys who are so jealous of Barack.  These guys will bad-mouth Barack for 4 years and not get labeled racist because they’re black as well.  

The RNC can dream on, they will never be inclusive because they’re too selfish.  So let them squirm and watch Barack do the hard work and go down in history as being one of the best presidents ever.  Dream on RNC, you wish you were innovative, but you’re not.  You’re too busy thinking about your own selfish selves.</description>

		<description>Other than a total screw up on behalf of the Democratic party, I don&#039;t see anything revitilizing the G.O.P.  The party needs a moderate message, but that won&#039;t happen as long as the wingnut fascists are still around.</description>
