Glenn Beck: Bush's Compassionate Conservatism Must 'Die Violent Death'

If the Republican Party has any chance of regaining its leading position, it must put to "death" George W. Bush's "compassionate conservatism," says top talker Glenn Beck.

Beck, a rising ratings star at Fox News and one the nation's leading talk hosts, has earned his popularity taking on some of the most cherished shibboleths of the Republican establishment.

During a Fox News interview with top radio talker Rush Limbaugh this past Thursday, Beck used the occasion to slam Bush's policies as inherently detrimental to core Republican principles.

Beck asked Limbaugh: "Rush, will you — help me out on this, because you always get thrown under the bus, that — well, you know, where were you when George Bush was spending, et cetera, et cetera. Address — because I — I have to tell you, the Republican Party doesn't get it. You just said, echoed again what I was saying about the progressive Republicans. George Bush, this compassionate conservative movement has got to die a violent death."

Note: for the past 4 or 5 years, I've been on that NewsMax emailing list. I suspect that an anonymous "friend" had given them my email address, and out of morbid fascination I couldn't bring myself to have it removed. My all time favorite article from there was on the eve of last year's election. They confidently predicted a "dead heat"!

there is not now nor was there ever any such thing. It exists only as words strung together.

are sociopaths and they make no sense.
Compassionate conservatism is orwellian sociopath word-salad of self serving bullshit.A synonym to 'compassionate conservatism'would be "tough love".
Both describe a lie that's also an authoritarian verbal mind fuck aimed at excusing an abusers choices to inflict harm at targeted victim(s) and deny it hurts the victims.

But he was once Surrounded by his Hemorroids and doses to the gills, crying, whining, laying in his rich Man's bed talking about Loving Everyone.. It was on YouTube..

Yeah, I like the old 60's saying.. "When the Revolution Comes, you'll be one of the first fuckers up Against The Wall.."

Him crying, begging for his life on Pay Per View would be Great Reality TV..

Dickless, Silly Putty looking Pig Ass haircut little mouthy runt would have had his ass kicked every 15 minutes in MY High School, and then the Other Kids could have got their shots in.. :)

If there was ever a guy to bring back the Guillotine for, he's IT.

What burns my ass the most are the multiple millions he gets Paid to spout his soft sell Hateful, Racist Garbage.
