In light of Christine O'Donnell's (DE-SEN,Teh Crazy) primary win last night, I thought it might be fun to wander over to one of the conservative blogs and see if there are more shots being fired in the GOP civil war. I went over to Frum Forum because David Frum is a conservative and compared to the teabaggers is somewhat sane. I was not disappointed.
In a blog post, titled "How to Throw Away a Senate Seat, Alex Knepper calls out the ideological purists in the Tea Party for costing the GOP control of the Senate this year. In very strong terms he begins his blog post with this line:
Jim DeMint, Mark Levin, and the Tea Party Express have declared war on America.
Wow. This is not one of us writing this, a conservative blogger wrote this. It gets even better and you can hear his anger as you read through his post. His keyboard must have been smoking after he posted it.
If there were any evidence that Mark Levin and Jim DeMint cared about promoting conservative principles, I might retain a modicum of respect for them. . .DeMint and Levin would endorse Mahmoud Ahmadinejad if he promised to purge the party of RINOs.
The Mahmoud Ahmadinejad reference is particularly telling of Alex Knepper's opinion of this merry band of teabaggers. Equating them with Iran's lunatic let's you know what he thinks of the GOP/Beck/Limbaugh/Faux News band of homegrown lunatics.
His closing line is even more priceless. He calls out the self-styled leaders of the teabaggers for being more concerned about "stoking their own egos rather than winning seats".
Stopping the Obama agenda is not on the minds of Jim DeMint, Mark Levin, Sarah Palin, and the Tea Party Express. The only agendas this band of narcissistic posers care about are personal ones: how they can inflate their egos and fatten their wallets — even if it means flushing a Senate seat down the toilet.
In the comments thread you can catch glimpses of the civil war shaping up in the GOP. This is but one example of "teh crazy""
"This is about cleaning house. . .The useful idiots (Castle, Crist, Bennet, Murkowski) and their supporters are no longer welcome. Their council is neither sought, nor accepted. They’ve proven themselves to be gutless losers, and they have been cast aside."
I highly recommend that you go over there and read the food fight in the comments. The teabaggers are in full purge mode. They are taking no prisoners in their war with the GOP establishment. They don't care.
Go to the store and buy some more popcorn. This is going to be great to watch.
