that's funny

i wonder if that's on purpose, or just because they really don't give a shit about the Little Rubes who surf their websites thinking that their opinions of what is (not) found there plays any role in republican policy formation.

They're too busy trying to thwart the

dems to have any time for silly little things like issues.
Also, they're waiting for republican voters to tell them what they are. This is the first thing I got when I linked to the website under Issues:

With the beginning of the 111th Congress we are interested in learning what issues you are most concerned about. Please take a moment to participate in our survey to let us know what issue concerns you the most. Thank you.

Didn't the NRCC recently claim at this site that the economy was robust and jobs plentiful? Hilarious.

TFF!

Last week it said the economy is just humming along thanks to their hero and mentor, G. W. Bush. I guess they are lost without him?

Why the GOP doesn't have some master plan

Need any more evidence that they aren't some master strategists?

Only tyrants rig elections.

yes, i think your formulation is much better than mine. they don't care because they're actually busy being effective opposition. that must be nice for republicans.

Good reading! Favorite quote: What could go wrong?
Beyond war, inflation, the end of the technology/productivity wave, and financial collapse, we think the most potent and short-term threat would be societies demanding a more ‘equitable’ share of wealth.

Random term

Shrill

A ritual term of abuse used of liberals by wingers when the winger lacks a substantive response to an argument. Synonym: "Shut up!" Sometimes used ironically by liberals. Usage example, with irony: I used to like Paul Krugman when he wrote about economics, but lately he's been getting too shrill (from Atrios).

I support Americans United for Separation of Church and State.

Americans United is dedicated to preserving the constitutional principle of church-state separation as the only way to ensure religious freedom for all Americans.
