Who is the Hammer of the Progressives?

Some ideas survive election cycles.  This one is from the last election cycle.  You know - the one where the GOP dude would have given us more gun control?  But what I said back then about Newt is perennially green:
There are many things that I do not like about Newt, but one advantage that he has over the entire GOP crowd is that he knows how to deflate the Democrat's ideology, to show not that it is mistaken, but that it is immoral.  Four years of that hammer will leave the political discussion in this country profoundly different.  The Republic needs that, and someone who will not flinch from repeatedly telling the opposition that they hate the poor:



It's the same conflict of visions.  Today's UK is profoundly different than it was in 1979, because the Iron Lady refused to back down in the face of a left - unions, the media, the universities - that held her in withering contempt.  By returning that contempt with equal fervor and backing it up with unarguable facts, she wrenched the Realm off of the track to ruin, to the point that "Red" Ken Livingston is a curiosity, and not the head of the Labour Party.
So who will fight this fight this today?  Which GOP candidate will attack their world view?  Who is the Hammer of the Progressives?

Sadly, to ask the question is to answer it.  What's been on offer has not inspired us.

The scariest thing is that one of the announced candidates will be our president in a short while. Where is someone like Margaret Thatcher or her great friend Ronald Reagan?

Will someone come to our rescue?

Too true... Dammit

Libertyman, I'm not sure that a Man On A White Horse can save us.

Pbfbfbfffft.

If a man on a white horse showed up he would get torn to shreds by the baying mobs of social justice warriors, vibrants, homosexuals and progressives. And if they didn't do it, the repubs would!

Good grief - any white man with a triple digit IQ would have been laughed out of the last two elections had he run on the same platform Obutthole did. Fact is, that is exactly what's happening right now. I guess idiocy is politically correct as long as it comes from a black baboon that isn't fit to shine shoes in a cat house. Hell - black candidates that are smarter than Obama are a dime a dozen too!

Things are too easy. We have far too many lazy, stupid people that have never been cold, never been hungry, and never been poor. I have no sympathy for the most of the poor in north America, they live in luxury compared to the third world...and all they do is bitch and scream for more. As long as we let people like that run the country...and sabotage our own...we will have the gov'ts we deserve.

"Which GOP candidate will attack their world view?"

Why would they attack, when their worldview is essentially identical?

I like what Glen Filthie said. I have to wonder where they keep the republican's balls, since they don't seem to wield any once they're sworn in.

All this reaching across the aisle must be for giving handjobs.

The last part of the last sentence. Obama is not nearly as much of a problem as are those that elected him.

Only when this country is gone will people realize how stupid they were to let it happen. How a nation of millions can let 535 people lead them to total destruction is mind boggling.

Only when this country is gone will people realize how stupid they were to remain so long in it, and how much better off they are without it. Instead of one homogenized America, run by a fascist oligarchy, there will be 50 Americas with enough varying sorts of governments and cultures that everyone will be able to find a place suitable for themselves.
