A new USA Toady/Gallup Poll finds that though a majority of Americans can name the many assholes of the Grand Old Obstructionist Party, the name of the actual head escapes them.
Republicans, out of power and divided over how to get it back, are finding even the most basic questions hard to answer.
A 52% majority of America-hating Americans surveyed couldn't come up with a name when asked to specify "the main person" who speaks for Republicans today. Of those who could, the top response was repulsive hate-radio host Rush Limbaugh (13%), followed in order by repellent liar Dick Cheney, the geriatric John McCain and serial adulterer Newt Gingrich. Former resident Tipsy McStaggers ranked fifth, at 3%.
Only 1% said RNC chairman Mo-Diddy Steele spoke for the GOP.
So the dominant faces of the Republican Party are all men, all white, all conservative and all old enough to join AARP, ranging in age from 58 (Limbaugh) to 72 (McCain). They include some of the country's most strident voices on issues.
"We cannot be a party of balding white guys," says balding white guy and former RNC chairman/weasel Ed Gillespie.

But you are. And your recent actions are only cementing your status as old, crabby white sexist racists who hold the Bible in one hand and your shriveled dicks in the other.
I take issue with this statement by Charlie Cook, though: "Nobody's really listening to them. Nobody's caring what they think." That's bullshit -- these guys are all over cable news, all day every day. Even on MSNBC, which is supposedly so in the bag for Prez Obama. I watched close to 3 hours of their programming yesterday evening and I don't think I saw one Democrat or liberal contributor. Same yesterday. Today? I may just stick forks in my eyes. Bonus:
Obama's popularity — 67% had a favorable opinion of him — is boosting his party. Even the 14-year-old daughter of Republican strategist Ed Rollins has put up posters of the president in her bedroom.
Heh. That's got to chap his ass!

Ed looks a bit old to have a 14 year old, don't he? Cialis or Viagra?
it's the media's fault. they want the GOP to fail, so they're making up lies about the GOP being the party of old white men.
that's what i heard on the news anyway.
Not to pick nits or anything, Maru, but that elephant on teh flag needs to be upside down. With little Xs where the eyes are supposed to be. HAHAHAHAHA.
Hee!
The pic is borrowed from the GW Bush amusement park site from last month or so. I lost the link.

This was riotously funny. As lethally terroristic as the right-wing loonies and their murdering gangsters are becoming, your light-hearted and yet biting comments on these malicious retards keep us sane and even focused.
Your epithets for the rightwing clowns and hatebags- Tipsy McStaggers and the like, are deserving of awards, in my opinion.
