Jimmy, I’d say the realists bailed the neo-cons out in Iraq. But it was overstating it for me to say all the Republicans have left is neo-con foregin policies. Gates has been a quality Defense Secretary.

Jimmy, that’s awesome that the iraq war is over. When did all the troops get back? I can’t wait to plan a vacation in Iraq next year.

From the Conservative blogs I read I see a lot of dissention. Many realize that Bush and company betrayed them but donâ€™t realize that Rove used the noise machine to distract them from what the Bush/Cheney Republicans were up to. When the pay go rules were trashed and the surplus was quickly spent there should have been a Conservative revolt, but the Limbaughs kept the conversation on liberals and they got away with it. Now there is finger pointing and demands for philosophical purity, basically expelling the RINOs. Others see the need to expand the party, that purity will only result in an insignificant secondary party that will not have any effect on events. I donâ€™t have any idea how this will shake out, I am hoping for a broader based political party that actually means what it says on fiscal responsibility but Iâ€™m not holding my breath.

Republicans need to bring back the image of the rugged individual, watch South Park more, and stop getting pissy when people make fun of Jesus or talk about sex.

I disagree that the Iraq war caused more problems than it has solved. This is 2008, not 2005. The war is over and we won. Think about the headache of Saddam and his sons, the humanitarian disaster of the eroding sanctions, or the threat of another emerging petrol-terror state – all off the table for Obama. Now he has an Arab country to help America fight terrorism.
