6. Liberals to GOP Establishment: We told you so too. They're going to eat you.

Thumping the drum against "welfare queens" wasn't enough. Demonizing "liberal" wasn't enough. Using every threadbare and invented claim about Bill Clinton to try to even things up for Nixon's resignation wasn't enough. Using 911 to launch a half-assed neoconservative joyride in Iraq wasn't enough.

You guys kept feeding the ranting cranks because they let you have enough power to do the things you guys thought were important: cutting taxes for the wealthy and strangling every legacy of the New Deal.

You were warned. Welcome to Thunderdome.
