Wrong- As Usual
Posted by BuelahMan on June 6, 2008
B’Man: Blue Texan at firedoglake had this nice little snippet post up showing just a few examples of how wrong the reTHUGlicans have been regarding the next election (and their perceivedpreferred choice for Democratic Presidential Nominee, Hillary Clinton):
“I don’t see any way that Hillary Clinton won’t be president.”
“Hillary will be the next president of the United States because they have built a coalition,” he said.
“Hillary Clinton will undoubtedly lose the South Carolina primary as African-Americans line up to vote for Barack Obama. And that defeat will power her drive to the nomination.”
COLMES: At this point Karl — this is risky territory, but could you predict who the nominee will be for the Democrats based on what you know?
ROVE: I think it’s going to be Senator Clinton because I think Senator Obama’s best shots are largely behind him.
“I think the odds are 80 per cent that Sen. Clinton is the next president; I think she is almost certainly going to win the Democratic nomination.”
“Remember this: the Democrat machine candidate always wins; the upstart insurgents never do. It’s all you need to know. Forget all the polls.”
President Bush, breaking his rule not to talk about presidential politics, says he believes Hillary Rodham Clinton will defeat Barack Obama in Democratic presidential primary voting.
“She’s got a great national presence and this is becoming a national primary,” Mr. Bush told Sammon.
I predict that Republicans will continue to be wrong about everything.
B’Man: On any number of subjects, one could do exactly the same thing and show how wrong they are. I can’t think of a subject they have been “right” on, as a matter of fact (feel free to list those, if you have them). I know many people who are this way… can be quoted later and shown to be 100% wrong in virtually everything they are involved in.
One such person is my own mother. When it comes to most any subject, but especially religion and what God tells her, she has been 100% incorrect. She had the audacity to give me marital advice, while she was in her 7th marriage (only one had died). It doesn’t take a genius to pick these folks out and as a general rule (I explain this to all my siblings who cannot seem to grasp this very simple concept), if she says anything or gives advice, no matter how sane it may seem, do 100% opposite and you will be safe.
The same holds true for Bush, his administration or any reTHUGlican who kisses the neocon ass (not to mention the Blue Dog capitulating Dems who continue to support the failings of this administration). If they say something, make a claim or suggest something the country needs to do to be “bettered”, then we should instinctively do exactly the opposite and we will be safe.
