    The GOP: divorced from reality

    The Republican base is behaving like a guy who just got dumped by his wife.

    By Bill Maher

    --

    Look, I get it, "real America." After an eight-year run of controlling the White House, Congress and the Supreme Court, this latest election has you feeling like a rejected husband. You've come home to find your things out on the front lawn -- or at least more things than you usually keep out on the front lawn. You're not ready to let go, but the country you love is moving on. And now you want to call it a whore and key its car.

    That's what you are, the bitter divorced guy whose country has left him -- obsessing over it, haranguing it, blubbering one minute about how much you love it and vowing the next that if you cannot have it, nobody will.

    But it's been almost 100 days, and your country is not coming back to you. She's found somebody new. And it's a black guy.

    As usual, Bill Maher hit the nail on the head.

    Not at all. But I appreciate the assigning of feelings to me. It is such a strain to come up with my own.

    It was a ribbing directed at an old efriend for putting a dildo on my earlier thread. Of coarse, Koolaid kids dont really get jokes. :smt023

    The Republicans used to believe in small government and non interventionism. Now they believe in not-so-small government and neocon interventionism. They're just as useless as the dems
