This is further proof that Righties do not understand irony.

You may be right.

Republicans have been behaving like big diaper babies for a long, long time now.

Great column, Bob.

Or Nixon. Or Eisenhower. Or Teddy Roosevelt.

You know, I think we actually have the Tea Party to thank for the Democrats finally finding their spine. Without the full bore, nonstop crazy coming from the other side of the aisle, I’m afraid that the Democrats wouldn’t have had the will (or the political cover) to take a stand.

Much like an angry old man ranting at an empty chair, the Republican Party finds it much easier to run against an imaginary President Obama than the one that actually sits in the chair, makes decisions, and implements policy.

Why let facts and truth get in the way of a good narrative?

Republicans are such a bunch of thin-skinned crybabies, but I am grateful as hell that Democrats have FINALLY found their backbones. Republicans can cry all they want, we aren’t backing down because we’re right!

We may have joked about a Reagan hologram if they had gotten it working, but the joke would have been that, in today’s Republican party, Reagan wouldn’t have lasted as long as Jon Huntsman in the primary.

If you listened to one of President Obama’s stump speeches, in full, unedited and without commentary, you’d hear him talking about his record and it would be clear to you that he is, at least in part, running on his record.

Exactly!
