So,prehaps [sic] the pathetic RNC Chairman might want to consider the Whopper of a Big Lie that his own 2012 GOP/Tea Party Presidential Candidate,Bain Capital Vulture Businessman Wimpy Willard Mittens Romney keeps telling over and over about Romney being a "Businessman",when the only thing Willard Mittens Romnney knows about business as a Corporate Raider Punk is how to ship our own American Workers Jobs OVERSEAS to India,Communist China,Mexico & Pakistan after Romney destroyed the American Companies they came from here... And,then Willard Mittens Romney knows how to deposit his ill-gained $250 Million Blood Money Fortune into All Romney's Secret Cayman Islanmds,Bermuda and Swiss Bank Accounts and lie about it and Evade Paying Taxes On It All.

So,need I mention Willard Mitt Romney is also a cowardly Viet Nam War Draft Dodger that fled to France to evade being Drafted and lies about it by saying he was on a Mormon Church Mission.

Hmmm, let's see.

Dukakis -- The Willy Horton ads
Clinton -- Does anyone even know what he is *supposed* to have done in Whitewater?
Gore -- One of the most honest men in Congress, so the Repubs intentionally set out to make him seem a liar, via lies like the assertion that he claimed to have invented the Internet
Kerry -- Swift boated
Obama -- That would be the crack-smoking Muslim Communist socialist Kenyan who comports with terrorists

OK, so now the Republicans are in arms because the Dems are finally hitting back?  

Somehow I can no longer care.  

The sad truth is that you have to hit a bully back, or he'll keep hitting you. Obama spent four years making nice to the Republicans, and look at what it bought him. The people who now run that party see that as a sign of weakness. They will behave, but only once you've demonstrated strength.

Not just hit him back, but smash him in the face with a trashcan lid, stomp his testicles into a bloody mess, kick his ribs in, and smash the rest of the trashcan down on his head.

Knock him down and keep him down. That's what we need to do the GOP - destroy these sick animals forever.

Hey, that's pretty much neocon foreign policy in a nutshell. Are you sure you want the left adopting that as a political strategy?
