Another Conservative Breaks With The 'New Hysterical Extreme Right'

[hatrack]

10. Two words, one place name for you, Mr. Furmento: Philadelphia, Mississippi

You knew that it was hate, racism and ignorance that fueled the rise of the "New Right" in the 1980s and kept it going for the ensuing 30 years.

As long as it looked shiny and clean, you rode that shit-pony until the hooves came off - who cared what was beneath its red-white-and-blue hide?

Any why not? Plenty of think-tank money and a house publisher to get your effusions to a wider audience - beats real work any day!

But now the ugly truth is well and truly out of the barn. The Hysterical Yokel bloc you fed and pampered for all those years has swollen to the point where its weight is snapping the few remaining links that tether the Republican party to reality.

And what's your reaction? Responsibility? Mea culpa?

No, no, now you're going to hold forth to the unworthy, unwashed and un-Republican like ourselves as to how beneath you it all is, and aren't we shocked, shocked as to what's happened to political discourse in this country.

Two more words - fuck you. You helped it happen, you cashed in, and now you want to show how much better you are than the political monstrosity you helped create.

Bite me.
