how nervous would they be if pics of Blacks and Hispanics were having conventions where they posed with even toy guns, NRA would be giddy and step up their impnding assault on America. free guns maybe but only to one race.
The Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), hosted by the American Conservative Union, does not do moderation or restraint. At times it appears to maintain only a loose connection with political realities. This is an annual shindig of conservative clans from across the nation. But this year the conclave took place against the sombre backdrop of presidential hopeful Mitt Romney's disastrous defeat.For a location, organisers had plumped for a gigantic convention complex just outside Washington DC. It was a place of giant hotels and expensive upmarket chain restaurants, surrounded by freeways. It felt like an artificially suburban, self-contained, inward-looking universe with almost no natural relationship to the surrounding landscape. As such, it was perfect.Obama's win has left many American conservatives angry. They are mostly furious at Romney – a vastly rich titan of free market capitalism and deeply religious social conservative – whom they consider not rightwing enough. "This Romney campaign was the worst campaign in the history of theUnited States," said pollster Pat Caddell.
do you think that those of conscious on the right wing like those who left the party did not like what they were seeing the party do to the US Constitution and other Americans with their voter blocking and Union busting, refusal to help the middle class in favor of the rich, lying and denying jobs they promised and won on in 2010, had anything to do with their trouncing?
throwing Romney under the bus was really a ploy to shift the blame, they picked him lies and all and he was a failure but thy and their skulduggery i think trned to tide that might have been but only because of the dirty tricks they played.
Other consultants complained that Romney had failed to hone the right conservative message. But then it is not easy. The movement is a fractious mix of social conservatives who hate abortion and gay rights, fiscal conservatives who do not care about such things but hate government, and then foreign policy conservatives who are obsessed with the latest fashion in perceived threat – a hot seat currently occupied by Iran.So instead, conservative activists often find themselves glued together by emotion, paranoia and a firm belief that America is about to turn into a liberal totalitarian state. Tea Party groups promoted themselves with events linked to the Hunger Games, the dystopian sci-fi novel and film, and a video that fantasised about violent revolution. In a giant exhibition hall in the bowels of the centre, dozens of stalls vied for who could be most apocalyptic about the state of America.
would that be considered as holding on to their guns and IMO never read Bibles?
