  5. O/T although he’s not a person of color. . .Ken Mehlman just stepped out of the closet..
    “It’s taken me 43 years to get comfortable with this part of my life. Everybody has their own path to travel, their own journey, and for me, over the past few months, I’ve told my family, friends, former colleagues, and current colleagues, and they’ve been wonderful and supportive. The process has been something that’s made me a happier and better person. It’s something I wish I had done years ago. I wish I was where I am today 20 years ago. The process of not being able to say who I am in public life was very difficult. No one else knew this except me. My family didn’t know. My friends didn’t know. Anyone who watched me knew I was a guy who was clearly uncomfortable with the topic.” — Andy Towle isalso reporting that Mehlman has already agreed to chair a “major anti-Prop 8 fundraiser” for Americans For Equal Rights, Ted Olson and David Boies’ outfit.

    Seems like the Big Tent is just ripping at the seems with all these wonderful changes

  8. The Tea Party is toxic to the GOP in the same way that the Club for Growth is. They both push the party farther and farther to the right, forcing out moderates. Conservative-leaning moderates are left with nowhere to go but the Democratic Party, and I truly believe that this is the intent. Everyone likes to say that we’re a Center/Right country, but that’s only because the right has gone so far off the deep end (even into the realm of fascism, which people either refuse to realize or refuse to admit).

  9. guess it wasn’t totally off topic. back in July 2005

    Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman apologized to one of the nation’s largest black civil rights groups Thursday, saying Republicans had not done enough to court blacks in the past and had exploited racial strife to court white voters, particularly in the South.

    “It’s not healthy for the country for our political parties to be so racially polarized,” said Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman.

  10. Steve, remember what happened in liberal Massachusetts when your screaming Obama showed up and branded Scott Brown a racist teabagger?

    That’s right, he won. You lost. Your Obama Party got tossed out on its ear in one of the most liberal states in the country.

    Bye now.

  11. even into the realm of fascism

    You mean fascism like taking over auto makers or fascism like itching to read everybody’s medical records?

    Seriously, you need to come to terms with whatever it was your father did to you.

  13. littleletterperson steve (#8) informs us that –

    the right has gone so far off the deep end (even into the realm of fascism, which people either refuse to realize or refuse to admit).

    Now, here is the conundrum: fascism is an unknown and indefinable form of governance, so what is littleletterperson steve attempting to convey? A militaristic oligarchy of business titans and a narcissistic dictator like BushHitlerChimpMonkey and Wal-Mart/Haliburton/Exxon/Wachovia/Tampax?

    Is Sarah Palin rounding up a bunch of sister Amazons who will ride like the Valkyrie spitting lightning and booming thunder down on the little people while beating plowshares into swords?

    Please littleletterperson steve come tell us what your mighty mind hath wrought. We all need a little giggle before bedtime.

    Meanwhile, the moderate Democrats keep urging Obamessiah to lean just a bit more to the left. “Please, sir, could we have some more stimulus?”

  16. Nope. Remember, these people are racist against themselves and liberals are just fighting the self-hating racists. Right steve?

    So steve, you are admitting we are a center/right country and you are in the minority? You are admitting that fewer people believe in your narrow viewpoint than our ideological viewpoint? Is this admission of failure a way to convert people or are you revelling in your state of minority victimhood?
