The Atheist Communist Caliphate Made Flesh, Spread the Clusterfuck Around Thread

[Thrillho]

Now I know why I haven't seen Oleg around the Internets today, besides the obvious "looking too high".

Saw that earlier.  Pretty funny stuff.

I figured Oleg, after canvassing in Indiana, decided to just continue east to Boston.

I am eager to see the future of the Republican Party after this election.  I really believe that this election is analogous to the 1997 Labour Party success in the UK.  However, the Conservatives took nearly 10 years to become a major viable party again, after an incredible period of soul searching.  I shudder to think where the GOP is going to go.  I pray for a return to the moderates, but I doubt it.

Isn't that what McCain was? A moderate? Well he was to me, at least. Which, then again, doesn't say much because of my radical right-wing views.

Really what I think this party needs is a new, young, actual conservative voice. I'm not really sure how they will find it because the market out there with people who fit that criteria is pretty slim. Maybe there is a diamond in the rough though...

He was...in 2000.

This McCain was something different and it showed last night in his speech.  McCain wanted to run as a moderate, as the 2000 McCain.  However, he had to kowtow to the Rovians in the GOP and placate the social conservatives.

In any event, before the GOP picks the type of candidate they want to run, they need to decide what type of party they want to be.  Will they be the center-right party which reflects the country they believe they exist in, or will they continue to be the far right, extremist party that they have become?

I feel they've become a little too centrist but obviously that's because of my views. They probably will need to concede more towards the middle as much as I may dislike it. But if they want to have any say in what happens in this country, they may need to.

The country is in the center. That's why a Presidential candidate gets 53% of the popular vote and that's a mandate.

The idea that the country is center-right is as much a fantasy as us Liberals believing it's center-left. The country is a pendulum with a very small arc. Right now it happens to be on a leftward swing.

It does, however, prove out that all the major improvements in this country, whether it be abolition of slavery, women's sufferage, civil rights, whatever, come when the pendulum is on its leftward swing. It then swings right to stabilize.

And, if the last sixteen years have proven anything to us, it's this: Govern from the center, and you can make things happen. Ideologues just wind up leaving a mess for the next guy.

If you need proof that the country is the center just look at what happened on 11/4.  We elected a black man as president, constitutionally banned gay marriage and adoption, but extended the rights of chickens.

Pretty cool photo essay of Obama from a Time photographer.  Given his huge status and fame, it's interesting to see him caught in normal-person moments.  I like the one of him cleaning up after himself at the ice cream shop.

Make sure you keep clicking the "more photos" link at the bottom of the page -- there's quite a few here.

Wait, he's not the anti-Christ?  This is wasn't in the handbook....

Seriously, those are some good pics.  I like the chin-up one.

[Philberto]

Last one was really good. Also the one where people were taking cell phone pics. I liked the one of him waiting before a speech in Missouri..
