The Local Republicans theme for this years election seems to be victimhood. One local republican activist who's running for Bellingham city council has started the rumor that his yard signs are being stolen. The buzz among the local GOP is that Democrats are uncivil because they displayed a few buttons with unvarnished sentiments about the war and national politics. But it's a little hard to take it seriously when a Republican activist/candidate who's under indictment for threatening sheriff's deputies tells you your buttons are "a little harsh".
Oh Geez! After eight years of daily lies, slander and hate filled rants directed at President Bill Clinton, his wife, his daughter and even his cat, in a monumental contortion of situational ethics, the Republicans scraped off those "My President is Charlton Heston" bumper stickers and became great respecters of 'the office of the President'.
The boldfaced lies and character assassination of Democrats that spews out of 'conservative' talkradio doesn't seem to bother them in the slightest, that's what they call entertainment.
I suppose those 'conservative' Republican activists don't really have much left other than rumor-mongering and whining about the little stuff since the fundamental corruption and hypocrisy of their grand conservative agenda was exposed and their credibility collapsed just like the I-35 bridge.
