Have you ever been employed by a poor person or a liberal?

[luchabee]

In response to the rural Republican thread, I’d thought I sarcastically ask this question. For me, I’ve never been employed by a poor person or a liberal. Y tu?

A recent, related article in the Weekly Standard on how conservatives blew it, leading to Obama:

We Blew It
A look back in remorse on the conservative opportunity that was squandered.
by P.J. O’Rourke

Let us bend over and kiss our ass goodbye. Our 28-year conservative opportunity to fix the moral and practical boundaries of government is gone–gone with the bear market and the Bear Stearns and the bear that’s headed off to do you-know-what in the woods on our philosophy.

An entire generation has been born, grown up, and had families of its own since Ronald Reagan was elected. And where is the world we promised these children of the Conservative Age? Where is this land of freedom and responsibility, knowledge, opportunity, accomplishment, honor, truth, trust, and one boring hour each week spent in itchy clothes at church, synagogue, or mosque? It lies in ruins at our feet, as well it might, since we ourselves kicked the shining city upon a hill into dust and rubble. The progeny of the Reagan Revolution will live instead in the universe that revolves around Hyde Park.

Mind you, they won’t live in Hyde Park. Those leafy precincts will be reserved for the micromanagers and macro-apparatchiks of liberalism–for Secretary of the Department of Peace Bill Ayers and Secretary of the Department of Fairness Bernardine Dohrn. The formerly independent citizens of our previously self-governed nation will live, as I said, around Hyde Park. They will make what homes they can in the physical, ethical, and intellectual slums of the South Side of Chicago.

The South Side of Chicago is what everyplace in America will be once the Democratic administration and filibuster-resistant Democratic Congress have tackled global warming, sustainability, green alternatives to coal and oil, subprime mortgage foreclosures, consumer protection, business oversight, financial regulation, health care reform, taxes on the “rich,” and urban sprawl. The Democrats will have plenty of time to do all this because conservatism, if it is ever reborn, will not come again in the lifetime of anyone old enough to be rounded up by ACORN and shipped to the polling booths.

P.J. O’Rourke is one of my favorite writers. The book he wrote about 15? years ago–Parliament of whores is hilarious.

“Republican Party Reptile” is pretty damn good, too.

That article would have been hilarious if it wasn’t so true.

I sit here gritting my teeth as Sarah Palin begins her (inevitable) run at the 2012 primary. Which proves that we not only lost the rudder, we appear to have the lost the boat, too.

O’Rourke and some of the posters on this board are part of the few Republicans that I do respect.

As for your question: In the past, I was always employed by liberals, and to this day, all of my clients are liberals. Who woulda thunkit?
