For a succinct explanation for the "conservative" party's inability to govern itself, let alone hope to govern the country, see David Brook's column in today's New York Times. It also explains much of the tone of Misfires. Government doesn't operate on ideology. Republicans will never win a national election as long as the Tea Party holds rationality and common sense hostage to its delusions and alternative facts.

Well, that's just like your opinion, man. (The Dude)

Bill, thank you for that.

Typical, subjective demonization from the sociopathic, religious, statist ideologue David Brooks. Who would expect anything else?

We'll just have to see.

Cheer up. CNN is teaming up with Jebe to rectify the situation.

This is going to get interesting. How long before they go full-in and give Trump the Huey Long treatment? I'm thinking about ordering one of Jeb's $75 signature guacamole bowls before they sell out.

You write similar to how Brooks does in the column. Give me a little credit, I tried to take a look, but c'mon Bill, it all started with Rush? Speaking of delusions, why would you place so much importance on something that stirs your feelings. This is about the future of the nation, right?

I hope you're able to check back in here instead of drive by delusion folks, maybe tomorrow after the dem debate tonight. Your only political issue preference that you've been able to be somewhat specific about has been the loss of hunting access on fed land.

We have hill that the polls say only the most radical left wing base, such as yourself, still trusts. Then there's sanders, a self proclaimed socialist who has never said the collective should be entitled to gun rights let alone hunting. We also have a non invitee, biden, who clearly used the death of his son to see which way the wind is blowing.

After we get a chance to watch tonight, would you revisit here and explain what each will do for your access to lost hunting land, or any other issue that they will correct a wrong. Feel free to extrapolate, or dig up quotes, on how biden would handle similar.

David Brook's claim to fame is to link Obama's qualifications to be president with the crease in his (O's) pants.

Ben Shapiro has written a response to Brook's column. I will provide a link for your convenience to access it;

Shapiro defines Conservatism in his final paragraph, which I quote here;

"More importantly, conservatives accept democracy. But more importantly, we accept the principles that undergird democracy: principles of individual liberty and limited government that are rejected wholesale by the left. There can be no compromise on those principles. Compromise of those principles is betrayal. That�s why we�re at an impasse in the Republican Party: not because conservatives stand up for conservatism, but because non-conservatives insist that compromise and political nicety, rather than principle, lie at conservatism�s heart."

Speaking of delusions and alternate facts, I was hoping Rocky Mtn Oyster Bill Ferguson was dipping his foot in Misfires to finally address and correct the falsehoods he presented here about 11 months ago. No such luck. But Bill can always be counted upon to parrot any DNC talking points and say anything to justify increases in education spending... negative net returns be damned.

As long as we all know where you're coming from Bill. You will always support and defend the Liberal Left Socialist anti-gunners. It's what you do.

If David Brooks fails to see the ruination of civilization in our present circumstances, probably 90% of the rest of the population fails to see it too. Is it likely that only a group as perceptive as the Tea Party has it right? These are folks that don't read. They don't value learning. They deny science.They alone could be convinced by a cynical oligarchy to believe nonsense and vote consistently against their own and the country's best interests. Keith, no one responds to your absurd accusations. You wouldn't recognize a fact if it kicked you in the nuts. You're a brainwashed cultist.

Craig, as always you respond with an attack on things I never said. Did I endorse a Democrat? And yes, I am upset. If there is a ruination in store for us, it's the plutocrats, the multi-nationals, and globalism that set us up. And, yes, I blame Bill Clinton for lots of that. When I vote, I want to vote for somebody who takes science seriously. who believes in and supports conservation, who sees the threat of climate change and the need to confront it. I want to vote for someone who will set policies that bring jobs back to this country even if it means we have to pay higher prices for American=made goods. I'm sick of listening to stupid people like Ben Shapiro and the Fox "news" pundits.

In your opening comment, would you substitute dem for Tea party? If not. maybe there is something that you typed that might be questioned, if not attacked.

You know there're many things I disagree with you on, that's why I was hoping we could get some insight after this evenings 'debate'. Are you going to hear talking points or something that your grandkids can hang their future on.

Are you going to hear 'science', because I know that all you 'hear' about R's is that they are ruining the earth. Right?

Craig, I don't know what I'll hear tonight. I haven't heard it yet.
