Oh what interesting times we live in. The once mighty GOP party has now been reduced to a sideshow. While I’m not exactly a fan of either the democratic or republican party, the recent events in the world of conservative politics are bizarrely entertaining.
First, lets start off with CPAC (a.k.a. Crazy People Are Congregating), because thats exactly what it was. It first started out with Michael “Slum Love” Steele giving a speech at the conference dropping urban knowledge on the crowd when it came to horrid mismanagement by the republican party during the last 8 years.
“Tonight, we tell America: we know the past, we know we did wrong. My bad.”
My bad? On no no no, what the republican party was responsible for is waay beyond “my bad”. The last 8 years is definitely in the “oh Snap!” territory homie. The only thing that could’ve made that speech worse is if he was chewing on a leg of southern fried chicken and waving it around blessing the crowd with flying bits of crispy crust as he was speaking on the podium.
The speech was then it was followed up by the most bat shit crazy member of congress ever, Michele Bachmann yelling off camera to Mr. Steele “You be da man! You be da man!”. Watch the piece below by Keith Olberman for the bizarre video:
This was followed up by the “climactic” passionate speech by Rush Limbaugh dressed in all black, who looked like a seedy porn producer before a casting couch session with his shirt unbuttoned displaying his hairy chest (wheres your “Bling” Rush?). At one point of his speech, he was fist bumping fellow panel members as to denote that he was “hip” and knew how to communicate in an urban fashion.
This is a new low point for the republican party. When a former drug addicted, gluttonous, delusional talk show host becomes the “unofficial” leader of one of the two major political parties of the most powerful country in the world, you’ve hit the bottom of the barrel folks.
The only thing the republican party has managed to accomplish is to show traditional conservatives how much the GOP party is out of touch with them, and more glaringly, it poignantly illustrates the fact that the party is full of posers and fakes who are struggling to try to adjust to a world that has already passed them by.
Instead of reiterating the fact that he wants Barack Obama to fail, why doesn’t Rush steer the GOP flock to solutions instead of criticism?? First the republicans put us in a war on two fronts in the mid east, they then stand idley by as the corporations rape the American public. Our nation is on the verge of complete insolvency, and he’s dreaming for the country as it used to be. If I didn’t know any better, I’d still think hes on getting high on Oxycontin. Needless to say, at this point the state of the GOP party is so out of touch, I wouldn’t even blink an eye if they held a CPAC after party with Vanilla Ice as the musical performer.
They got one part of the “urban” behavior down, they are acting like genuine crazy ass crackheads.
GOP, you’re fakin the funk!
