Rick Moran at Right Wing Nut House, unloads on what he sees as the increasingly deranged push by right-wing bloggers and others in the far-right media to turn the GOP into a permanent minority status party by purging all but the true believers from its ranks.

Moran's post from earlier this week--a must read--opens with a bang:

What is it that possesses certain conservatives to fool themselves so spectacularly into believing that they can create a majority out of a minority?...In the case of far right conservatives who think that they can turn their meager numbers into a ruling majority all by themselves, the disconnect from reality would normally call for an intervention - except they reject anything from anybody who doesn't agree with them 100%.

 

Moran's description of anti-reason conservatives is priceless, as well:

Those who reject reality in favor of persecution complexes, wildly exaggerated hyperbole, and a frightening need for vengeance against their imagined "enemies."

 

Psst, Michele, I think he's talking about you.

 

Digg!

Never underestimate Michele. the congressperson who hears voices and is elected by other crazed citizens in MN. SHe is fast on the rise and is more damaging than one could imagine. It will be her, not Palin who runs for President. An alleged tax attorney who as far as anyone can find, never actually passed the bar.

But let them eat cake, because the far right is on their way out and not a minute too soon.

Peace
