Why the Republican Establishment should be repudiated in November. by John Corderman

It is interesting to observe the loudest self-professed "conservative" pundits and assorted talking heads go on and on about their disappointment in the presumptive Republican nominee, John McCain, in that these people who profess belief in true conservative principles still cannot get beyond the reality that their full embrace of the "War on Terror" has nothing to do with the American Conservative movement and that it is a Losing Proposition in the upcoming November Election.
There is no question that the Republican Establishment has cast its collective feet in concrete and the mud has fully dried and cured. When they nominate John McCain, or any other nominee who is similarly milliteristic, they will have effectively thrown themselves into the deep water and will drown on election day. That the Republican Establishment and the so-called "conservatives" cannot see this reality which is right sqarely before them, is disturbing in its demonstrated bankruptcy of intelligence and basic common sense.
The fact that the Republican Establishment has allowed itself to become the Party of War and Fear and seems not to care ab out having real blood on its hands argues that they deserve to be swept away from power--en mass--in November. Let all people who believe in liberty and the sacred and precious principles set down in our Constitution repudiate them. Perhaps once we do that, at some point in the future, after they reflect upon the reasons for their fall, they will thank us for removing them--much like the remorseful beligerent drunk who has his keys taken away.
