Remaking The Republican Party
Mitt Romney’s poor performance among minority voters, single women, and young people has led many top Republicans to call for an overhaul of the party’s image. Here are some options the GOP is considering to extend its appeal:
- Start nominating hipper, more relatable 65-year-old men
- Begin rolling the R’s in “deportation” and “border fence”
- A bunch of abortions and stuff—whatever the gals want
- Change nothing and wait for rest of country to come to its senses
- Project youthful vibe by requiring Republican congressmen to walk around Capitol doing yo-yo tricks
- Change party mascot to a Hispanic elephant
- Start one of those Twitter hashtags
- Eh, fuck it—just disenfranchise as many people as possible

Get rid of that pesky voting thing so they don’t have to waste money on campaigns anymore.

Hey, Eddie got a point.. I think, unless something changes really fast, I have cast my last vote for anything “national” this past November. Local stuff — well, that’s different. National issues — pfffft..
There was a cool piece in The Week about how the human race achieved its intellectual peak between 3,000 and 6,000 years ago before easier living allowed dumber citizens to pass along their stupid genes.. The guy that wrote it has a great point..
Before farming got cranked up, one had to be really quick or be dead. A bad decision cold kill you in a flash. After farming became the rage, civilization got a kick up and more people could be fed with less effort and a lot less challenge. Hence dullards got to hang around, be fed in exchange for digging ditches, screw and pass along their less than sterling genes on down to us.
He submits that a Greek peasant of 1,000 BCE, if dropped into todays masses would be found to be the smartest and brightest person around! I believe it too, judging from the quality of todays masses and those leaping into the fray a week ago today..

No longer quite true, it’s who reports the count.

The most fundmental truth is that the self is an abstraction. It’s pricisely because of this that there is good and evil, and the laws of Karma do exist.
Take something that doesn’t belong to you and it will change you. The left has succeeded in pigeonholing selves into defined categories. Which is the way the elites like it.
The left’s 2 biggest success stories of propaganda is the metro sexual and the unmarried white
women.
The best way to peal back unmarried white women would be to outlaw civil marriage. Karl Denniger did a great piece on this yesterday. “If you want to get married see a priest”

The rein of the white man is over. It actually ended in 2008. Women, minorities, gays, and clueless duped youngsters with years of progressive and liberal brain washing from union-run public schools and universities, and of course the bought votes of the FSA, now something like 130 million strong when you count union government employees. It’s over man, white men are so done, and will soon be minorities anyway, the perennial also-ran to Asians in every endeavor.
Whitey rolled over and died, ate too much and now has more circulating estrogen than testosterone thanks to the massive investment in adipose (fat) tissue. At least they have man-boobs to play with while they kiss the asses of their black and female bosses.

Eighty percent think voting for the same two parties that created this mess are the ones to fix it.

You are pinned down by murderous enemy fire, half the platoon is dead or wounded. You watch as another platoon advances to try and help you. You need to:
A. Make fun of them
B. Call their lieutenant an idiot

In light of a phone call I got tonight from some pollster and since I was doing computer backups, I decided to answer.
Besides, I really really try to get them to get off script, no swearing, just try to make up my own questions and fire them back at the pollster.
This young lady was hired by Ebonics Polling Inc, I swear.
She could not prounce “bipartisan”, “Guantanamo” and “Fiscal Cliff”. These came out as “biparties”, “guacamole” and “physical clift”.
The questions were clearly some kind of referendum on Obama and she really didn’t ask me much about the Repubs. When she did, I politely informed here that there was only ONE party in the USSA, the Oligarchy Party and that neither her nor I was in it. Dead silence from her, mebbe she thought I was taking about Oreos or something.
Now I am in real trouble with Mr. HZK as he overhead the whole thing as he picked up the phone at the same time I did, and he hates it when I do this.
As to remaking the Republican Party, here’s my take:
