&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;NRSC Chairman John Ensign of Nevada not only essentially concedes defeat at the presidential level, but also blames voters for the GOP&amp;#39;s failures, saying that they have &amp;quot;mistakenly&amp;quot; blamed Bush for the nation&amp;#39;s economic woes. The real culprits, according to Ensign? Congressional Democrats and their &amp;quot;overregulation.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Just another Republican defending the &lt;a href="http://www.jedreport.com/2008/10/the-party-of-denial.html"&gt;party of denial&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In a press conference at the MN State Office Building, Republican Assistant Minority Leader Laura Brod railed against Al Franken's tax issues while refusing to stand behind a recent ad by the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) that received a "D-" in KSTP's Truth Test.  A recent Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee against Republican Minority Leader Erik Paulsen was given a "D" in the KSTP Truth Test.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is pathetically adorable!! Iddle biddle NRSC has to &lt;a href="http://www.usnews.com/blogs/washington-whispers/2008/1/10/hannah-montana-gold-pile-for-gop.html"&gt;snag the brow beaten parents&lt;/a&gt; out there to raise cash.&lt;em&gt; Lovin&amp;#39; it!!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Disney&amp;#39;s Hannah Montana strutted through Washington last week, and it wasn&amp;#39;t just the show&amp;#39;s teen pop sensation Miley Cyrus who hit pay dirt. So did the National Republican Senatorial Committee, the group that funds GOP Senate candidates. A few weeks before the hottest show of the year arrived, the committee alerted donors that it had some choice seats. The catch: Winners had to raise or pony up $10,000. &amp;quot;I love my daughter, but,&amp;quot; jokes one donor. A committee spokesperson says the seats were great, and the final take was in the ballpark of $100,000. &amp;quot;NRSC hearts Hannah Montana!&amp;quot;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class="post_content"&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I know, I normally wouldn&amp;#39;t give them publicity, &lt;a href="http://cliffschecter.bravenewfilms.org/blog/19827-the-national-republican-senatorial-committee-is-pathetic-part-ii"&gt;but their ads lately&lt;/a&gt; are so very sad &lt;a href="http://cliffschecter.bravenewfilms.org/blog/19791-the-national-republican-senatorial-committee-is-pathetic"&gt;that they deserve a good mocking&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One thing the NRSC presumably can do, is look at polls (although we&amp;#39;re not sure about that either, as numbers are involved, and their fundraising and recruiting would imply they&amp;#39;re still learning integers). And polls say Mark Udall will be the next Senator from Colorado.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So the NRSC&amp;nbsp;put out the updated version of the Osama ad, you know the scary commercials that ensured people like Sherrod Brown, Jon Tester and Claire McCaskill never got elected to the Senate. Oh, right.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So about this ad. It is an utter fabrication. But then again, what&amp;#39;s new with Republicans? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When you&amp;#39;ve wrecked the economy, not caught bin Laden, or al-Zwahiri, or Mullah Omar, etc., when you lied your way into Iraq and have allowed healthcare and housing crises to brew at home, you can only make up lies about one of the worst records by a party governing unilaterally&amp;nbsp;(2000-2006), well, ever.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So let me &lt;a href="http://www.squarestate.net/showDiary.do;jsessionid=C7AB117FC8D58421A1569AF25CBFE7C2?diaryId=4898"&gt;quote my pal Zappatero over at Square State&lt;/a&gt; on this (a great blog for all things Colorado, btw):&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Here&amp;#39;s the lie:&lt;/strong&gt; Democrats have voted to give terrorists the same rights as Americans. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Here&amp;#39;s the truth as found in the text of the bill:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&amp;#39;CLARIFICATION OF ELECTRONIC SURVEILLANCE OF NON-UNITED STATES PERSONS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES&amp;#39; &lt;p&gt;Sec. 105A. (a) Foreign to Foreign Communications-&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(1) IN GENERAL - Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;a court order is &lt;em&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; required&lt;/u&gt; for electronic surveillance directed at the acquisition of the contents of any communication between persons that are not known to be United States persons and are reasonably believed to be located outside the United States&lt;/strong&gt; for the purpose of collecting foreign intelligence information, without respect to whether the communication passes through the United States or the surveillance device is located within the United States.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;You see that? Pretty easy, even for Republicans who&amp;nbsp;are at roughly the same&amp;nbsp;reading level&amp;nbsp;as Billy Madison. To summarize: If you&amp;#39;re not a U.S. citizen and located outside of this country there is&amp;nbsp;NO&amp;nbsp;COURT ORDER&amp;nbsp;NECESSARY.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But Republicans don&amp;#39;t want an honest debate. They want to listen into phone calls of American citizens who are not suspected of being terrorists, probably so they can find yet another way to corrupt our political process without making us an ounce safer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There you have it. The pathetic and pathologically shameless&amp;nbsp;National Republican Senatorial Committee strikes again with their constant stream of lies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Watch this goofy Thanksgiving video by Sen. John Ensign, the Chair of the NRSC who has failed to recruit more than 1 or 2 top tier candidates and has raised less money than have hookers from Republican officeholders.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Why, it&amp;#39;s morning in America! The GOP hasn&amp;#39;t destroyed our economy by hollowing out our manufacturing core, turning our currency into toilet paper and allowing the Chinese to essentially own us. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They haven&amp;#39;t let the Taliban flourish in Afghanistan and Pakistan by getting our brave soldiers killed in a war based on lies in Iraq. They haven&amp;#39;t ignored global warming, Katrina, 9/11 warnings, a healthcare crisis and George Bush&amp;#39;s propensity to choke on any food not pre-cut for him!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;No, things are wonderful. As you can tell by this ad. And aslo by the 75% or so of people who think this country is headed in the wrong direction.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Heckuva job Ensign!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They can&amp;#39;t raise money worth a damn and they&amp;#39;ve successfully scored 2 out of like 20 attempted recruits for 2008.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Well, now, in an attempt to be even more lame, they hold a web ad contest, with the goal of attacking Dems, and the leading ad on their site is a pro-Dem ad.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Can they do anything right? Besides bankrupting the country, keeping us in Iraq forever and attacking our Constitution. They&amp;#39;re good at all those things, of course.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Only two seats and you can return our country to Republican rule! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Prostitute scandals (gay and straight for the sake of variety), destroyed budgets, the dumbest war ever, the most corrupt Congress of all time and child molesters on committees to, um...protect children!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yes! Yes! That is what I want! A return to Republican one-party rule!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
