Modernizing Conservative Republicans and informing you of the events and elections.
CrimsonPolitics no longer supports neither the Republican Party nor the conservative movement (nor the tea party movement) nor the libertarian movement any longer. We've found that progressives and Democrats are simply more correct on a huge number of issues (social, economical, foreign policy) and we have changed our stances as a collective group. We also apologize if we mislead you about Obama, he has been doing a great job on the economy based on the evidence. (we still do not like Nancy Pelosi though, she is still corrupt; but honestly Newt Gingrich and John Boehner are much worse)
CrimsonPolitics reverses its stance; now supports Obama
CrimsonPolitics has now reversed its stance. I'm the owner of the blog and neither me nor my teammates feel that the Republicans are doing a good job.
The Republicans have gone off the deep end and can only be described as insane loons who will do anything for wall street money and will say anything to make Obama look bad. I had previously thought that they just disagreed with his policies, but after lengthy discussions with other conservative bloggers, it is clear that they are just racist and sometimes will lie and say anything for people to hate the word "democrat".
Does Constitution and Bill of Rights Apply to Non-Citizens or just US Citizens
The ACLU is angry at some US senators who are trying to push legislation that civilian authorities should consult intelligence leaders when taking suspected terrorists into custody. The ACLU claims that this legislation is applying the constitution on a case by case basis to each individual. At the core of this debate, is whether or not the Constitution and the Bill of Rights applies to non-citizens as well as US citizens.
Harry Reid's Racial Comments
Once again the Democrats showed their hypocrisy by not acting on Harry Reid's racial comments. The Democrats would have been calling for his head if he happened to be a Republican. Although it is a double standard, I'm sure if some Republicans were in the Democrat's situation they wouldn't do much different either. Political parties do protect each other.
The Political Pendulum
Politics is a pendulum and everyone needs to realize that no matter how attractive or convincing the fringes are, they are never right. Understanding this, makes you realize why there is such an equal divide amongst the people of the United States between the two political parties. Have you ever wondered, how after so many decades, we still have only two major parties?
Waterboarding is Not Torture
Waterboarding is not torture. People can say, "well it's painful, therefore it's torture," but torture is not defined by discomfort. If it was, sending criminals to prison is very torturous isn't it, after all, can anyone tell me that prison is not painful? We waterboard our own soldiers to train them. Does that mean, we torture our own soldiers but the media speaks out only when terrorists are tortured? After all, who cares if soldiers are tortured for training, right?
Michael Steele Should Not Have Apologized
This month, Michael Steele said that Rush Limbaugh was "an entertainer" and that his comments were usually "incendiary" and "ugly" on the Hughley Show. As a Republican politician is expected to, he must convince people and compromise on ideas when necessary. Michael Steele was right to emphasize that he is the Republican Party leader not Rush Limbaugh. Later however, he apologized to Rush Limbaugh about those comments, confirming Hughley's fear that Rush Limbaugh was the "De facto leader" of the Republicans.
Cafferty Believes the United States is an Empire
Jack Cafferty is a CNN commentator who has always held the most radical liberal views on CNN. I suppose the fan base he has is there to combat MSNBC's radical bias that draws in the liberal crowd. Today, he was on CNN, quoting various articles that all seem to agree on one thing: America is a super power that is soon to lose its super power status. They also agree that America is an empire that may soon need to withdraw its troops from around the world.
The Fundamentals of the Economy are Strong
Last year, Senator and presidential candidate John McCain used the phrase "The fundamentals of the economy are strong, but these are very, very difficult times, I promise you, we will never put America in this position again. We will clean up Wall Street." He was mocked and attacked for this comment as a "denier" of the state of the economy when he clearly expressed that we are in trouble. He was being an optimist by saying that our economy is a strong one and it will recover--something President Franklin D. Roosevelt would have applauded.
Alleged Terrorist or Convicted Terrorist
This was extremely hilarious, Power Line blog, posted an article they found by AP titled "Alleged Terrorist in Ohio gets 20 years in prison." Does anyone notice anything strange about this title?
