Lugar and the press — 7 Comments

  1. I’m sure Zell Miller could also provide some insight on how tolerant Dems can be.

    Shorter Chait: Bad voters! Once you elect someone you can never, ever remove them, even if they’ve “evolved” away from the positions that got them elected.

  2. Neo:

    Witness “Lugar’s Demise and the Constitutional Crisis” by Jonathan Chait, which castigates those partisan, monolithic Republicans and pretends the Democrats are a moderate, compromising group..

    Jonathan Chait is undoubtedly the poster boy for moderate, compromising Democrats. After all, he wrote I hate President George W. Bush, and proceeded to enumerate the numerous reasons for his hating Dubya. That is the very definition of a moderate, compromising Democrat. 🙂

    Neo nailed it:
    It seems these days that the Democrats’ specialty is to be highly partisan and uncompromising, and to pretend it’s only Republicans who are that way.

  3. The fact that Lugar did not even bother to have an address in Indiana says it all.

  4. If you are trying to decide whether to build either a NASCAR track or a soccer stadium with all your money and on the single piece of property you have, what could compromise even look like?

  5. Compromise is making concessions in exchange for concessions. When RINOs compromise, they make concessions, not for things which conservatives want, but for the concession of not being called names by the left.

    This explains why GOP electoral successes never result in conservative policy wins.

    RINOs need to learn that conservatives have long memories (naturally).

  6. Again, forgetting the source, Lugar was described as epitomizing the kind of republican who, when the dems want to spend a trillion, says, “That’s too much, let’s spend 700 billion,” and then compromises at a trillion
