Is it that simple to you? Let's look at a few of your issues.
anti-union means pro-worker freedom
anti-abortion means take a humane position of not killing 1,000,000 fetuses every year.
anti-gun control means opposing legislation that will not save lives
anti-government - that isn't a conservative position. That is a an anarchist position.
anti-taxes - just anti-excessive taxes
anti-poor - conservatives want the government to get out of the way and to stop a growing dependency on government
anti-single mom - single parent households clearly struggle more. So conservatives would like to increase the number of households with two parents.
anti-big cities?? what does this mean?
anti-liberal states? Aren't you against conservative states?
Fist off, I don't care what you think. conservatives are not pro much of anything. They are pro low taxes on rich people. They are pro low regulations on rich people and business, they are pro war, pro gun and that is about it.
conservatives elected officials consistently downgrade big cities all the time. I am not against any conservative state.
Let's wait and see what happens with this and the other topics in the news right now: maybe a month or tow from now. Maybe nothing, maybe it will be the nail in the White House coffin, but come 2014 this isn't going to hurt the GOP at all. It might not hurt anyone, but the Dems have a lot more to worry about and it seems everyday it get deeper. Right now, the country is more concerned about the devastating tornados and flooding than anything else.
“The minimum that it could cost now is $4 trillion,” Bilmes told the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace in Washington on Thursday. “We have trillions of dollars that have sort of sneaked up on us.”
The Republican party, already more unpopular than cockroaches, has hit an all time low in the eyes of Americans. A new CNN poll has found a worsening of the GOP's tattared image amid their fake scandal stunt against the President. Here is an excerpt summarizing America's distrust of Republicans in the new poll:
In a week that was supposed to be the worse of Obama's Presidency (or so Republicans hope), Republicans are the ones who emerged bruised. Americans must really hate the GOP... or reality does indeed have a liberal bias.
Einstein couldn't have been more correct: “Two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I am not yet completely sure about the universe.”

I love it when liberals predict the end of the Republican Party...
In the midst of job losses, decreased RE equity and record inflation :
Darryl Issa, the new Sen Joe McCarthy.
Chairman of the House Government Oversight Committee Darrell Issa finally released the responses he received from private industry on what government regulations he should go after now that he's in charge of a congressional committee. Issa asked businesses what regulations they wanted to get rid of. But surprise, surprise – over half of the responses didn’t come from businesses at all – they came from lobbying organizations.
The Chamber of Commerce, the American Petroleum Institute, and the Business Roundtable were among 106 other lobbying organizations that informed Congressman Issa on how to move forward with deregulation – mostly aimed at weakening the EPA and the new Wall Street reform law. Of course – lobbying organizations don’t create jobs – they try to maximize profits for their clients which usually leads to fewer American jobs. For example lobbyists protect tax loopholes that allow corporations to continue shipping American jobs overseas for higher profits. In other words – most of the responses Issa received were from people who are interested in screwing over American workers. In fact – none of the Top 30 job-creating companies responded to Issa inquiry – and zero of the top 10 biggest publicly owned companies responded.
Issa is only interested in hearing from high paid lobbyists and millionaire and billionaires transnational corporate CEOs who can fund his re-election efforts. It used to be called bribery, back when we called things what they were. And, irony of ironies, this is the one House committee in charge of investigating corruption.

The GOP, lobbyist agenda driven, economic state of the nation and the American people be damned.
With Issa the face and brain trust of Congressional GOP, what could go wrong?
