Sure seems like it.
#6 by firewomen on July 19, 2010 - 10:31 pm
It must since the GOP does not correct or contradict what they say.*

Yes, much like having a mangina is required to be a liberal male.
#8 by Crow on July 19, 2010 - 11:52 pm
Yes, it also helps if you are a pervert like Rush and is child raping down in the Dominican Republic.

Lol, and an I.Q. below room temperature too.

The left has substance abusers too, but the difference is that the left doesn’t claim to be holier than thou, beating the bible with one hand and breaking the 10 commandments with the other, like the hypocrite right does.

A true conservative leader would have out right dementia, like Reagan, to rally the troops. Being reality based doesn’t seem to have a draw with that gang.
#13 by ocean_scoop on July 20, 2010 - 1:50 am
I think I’ll take past substance abuse in leadership over current womanizing, murderers, liars, thieves, and closet socialists/communists in the Democrat party ANY DAY!
PS: And PLEASE, don’t call yourself a Texan! You don’t deserve the honor!
#14 by left side is the best side on July 20, 2010 - 2:37 am
to be a conservative.. one would have to consume some sort of narcotic
#15 by Godless Heathen on July 20, 2010 - 3:23 am
Don’t forget that Bush also enjoyed coke and was an alcoholic
#16 by Hd on July 20, 2010 - 4:19 am
that’s the only way we can get by while you liberals ruin things.
#17 by Not My Fault! on July 20, 2010 - 4:23 am
Nice rant but you’re mistaken on several things:
1) Bush isn’t a conservative.
2) Bush is done.
3) Beck & Limbaugh aren’t leaders of the conservatives.
Oops, that makes your little rant 100% in error. Nice try.

Generally speaking, practicing rampant hypocrisy and the willingness to habitually lie about even the most minute details, are the only true prerequisites.
#19 by Lkn4trouble on July 20, 2010 - 5:00 am
maybe you should go ask Marion Barry!
#20 by beatle1909 on July 20, 2010 - 5:43 am
No, but you do have to be named after a food group. Beck(beer), Bush(beans), Limbaugh(cheese).
#21 by Phil M on July 20, 2010 - 6:22 am
they aren’t addicts and alcoholics. You see, evil liberals infected their minds and turned them away, along with society, from God. Because of this liberal immorality they were led to the dark side where they were attempting to fight the enemy.
Its all good now. They aren’t addicts anymore and they’ve prayed to God to forgive them so everything is rosy. God only hates Gays and Liberals, never forget that.
#22 by Em on July 20, 2010 - 7:21 am
It helps
#23 by easy24q on July 20, 2010 - 8:15 am
Must be.
#24 by Robert on July 20, 2010 - 8:42 am
Alcoholism and drug addiction have no boundaries they affect the rich and poor as well as liberals and conservatives. But conservative do behave more hypocritical. Rush Limbaugh for example has talked many times not so kindly about others on drugs while the entire time he was on them himself.
#25 by DukeofDixie on July 20, 2010 - 9:34 am
You got it, that’s why he liberals decided to copy the Republicans ,by placing their leader (a self admitted crack head ) in the White House**********************************************
#26 by warren v on July 20, 2010 - 9:43 am
Apparently a leader in general, Obama snorted coke and Clinton didn’t inhale (I still get a laugh out of that Absolutely lame excuse)
I do give Beck, Bush, Limbaugh and even Obama credit for at least being truthful and admitting their human fallacies.
#27 by kathy_is_a_nurse on July 20, 2010 - 9:45 am
Drug addiction as a criteria for being a Conservative leader?? I didn’t know Obama was a Conservative. Huh! You learn something every day.
#28 by acct10132002 on July 20, 2010 - 10:19 am
No but helped ANN Richards decide to doom Waco church by tank action, helped Teddy K drive and make waitress sandwiches, and Barney Franks and Bill Clinton via sex addiction.
