Writer For Major Conservative Publication Hopes Democrats Win Back House In 2014 [View all]

The American Conservative hopes Democrats take back the House from loony Republicans.

In a column titled “The Strangelove Republicans,” conservative columnist Rod Dreher roundly criticized the Republican Party for insanely holding America hostage. He also blasted them for singing Amazing Grace while the country faced destruction at their own hands:

“Maybe there won’t be a long-term fallout from this, but I tell you, it’s very hard to see entrusting power to a party that behaves this way, that manufactures crises like this for its own short-term political gain,” Dreher wrote. ”The Republicans, having lost their mind, have destroyed their brand… They cause this looming disaster — which, make no mistake, would be a global disaster — and then stand there singing a freaking hymn amid the ruins of their party, and the potential crash of our economy! Raving loonies, the lot.”
