Welcome to the politically correct coffee shop, PART 2

The scene abruptly changed.
I entered the “liberal section” of the Politically-Correct Coffee Shop” looking for my buddy, Joe. A portrait of Franklin Roosevelt sitting in a wheel chair hung over the fireplace. I quickly scanned the rest of the room. They had photos of Che Guevara and Saul Alinsky prominently displayed, in very artistic ways, I must add.

Welcome to the politically correct coffee shop, PART 1

The sign stopped us in our tracks:
“Politically Correct Coffee Shop.”
My buddy, Joe, and I looked at each other quizzically. “What in the world?!”

We noticed there were two doors in which we could enter. On the left side of the building was a sign that said “liberals only.”
On the right side of the building was a sign that said “conservatives only.”
Joe said, “I’ll meet you inside. You go in your door, I’ll go in mine. But let’s sit on the liberal side. I don’t think I could stomach hanging around with too many conservatives, present company excepted.”
I told him, “Fine with me. See you inside.”

How Republicans can regain the momentum

Obama has crushed the Republicans.

But times are different today. They are up against the most formidable foe the GOP has faced since the old Soviet Union.
Barack Obama will negotiate with terrorists, anti-semites, and America haters on any corner of the earth. But he has proven his resolve in not only refusing to negotiate with Republicans, but in trying to destroy the Republican brand.
There is one way for the Republicans to regain the momentum …
