Bad news for the Republicans...

So, my first comment since the election. I don't really have much to say most of the time. I'm mostly an introspective guy. Deal with it.

CBS Poll: Bush Ratings Hit New Low


Hehehe. Watching the Republican party implode is fun.

I really must say that I found this comment rather amusing:

"The far right is starting to be very open about their claim that
[Bush]'s not a real conservative."

The far right decrying Bush as 'not a real conservative' is hysterical, considering the fact that the far right isn't really conservative either. Today's NeoConservative, fascist-wannabes have pissed upon the very foundation of conservative principle, abandoning practically everything that conservatism once stood for, such as non-interventionist foreign policy, small unobtrusive government, fiscal responsibility and so on. This is the pot calling the kettle black.

Anyhoo, it strikes me as an interesting trend that I seem to be observing.

See, it seems that we could be looking at the begining of the end for the American political parties.

The Democratic Party arguably reached it's height with the Clinton Administration, but it's been on the decline ever since.

The Republican Party has arguably reached it's height with Bush II, and now it's begining to decline as well. I don't think either party is going to survive without some radical changes.

Re-evaluation of their positions and policies will have to happen. For starters, the Repubs are going to have to get rid of the Religious Reich...erm, I mean Right, who are poisoning the party, before they can really regain any relevance to the American people.

The Dems will need to move more to the center I think, and away from the far-left fringe. They need to take on more Moderate policies that will appeal to the most people.

This would be the perfect time for a viable third-party to really rise to power and pull away the disillusioned members of both parties.

Too bad all the third parties right now are jokes, (capital "L") Libertarians included. The current Libertarian Party is a laugh, comprised of lunatic fringe people who really scare normal people, as well as not-so-normal, small government advocating, borderline-(small "l")libertarian people like myself. We really need a non-sucky, moderate third party that appeals to the majority of people. Not gonna happen as long as the combined Democratic-Republican machine controls the debate process, though.

Oh well. I have utter contempt for the whole system. I still wanna move to Canada.
