Why Republicans Lost the Presidential ELection in 2012 Reason 1.8

Talk radio that blows smoke up the a' of the rich corporate world has a pungent anti-environmentalist odor that paints a popular conception of the Republican Party for Global Warming vs the Democratic Party for Global Survival. That Rush Limbaugh spin on Republicanism is unfair and wrong-not all clever free enterprising Republicans support the heat death of human life on Earth because it will pay good in the short term.

The anti-environmental reputation of the Republican Party must be worth at least 5% loss in a Presidential race since many people really care about restoring a healthy life on Earth ecosphere. If it takes 3 or 4 billion years to evolve a sea going arachnid like a giant crab, why eat them all and then poison the survivors with pcbs or other crud while killing the oxygen in the ocean and pouring in acid from the rainfall and runoff carbonic acid cycle?  There are intelligent people that would vote Republican if not for its reputation as the party for Hillbilly Greed ideology.

Talk radio hosts are a 'twinkie' version of Republican Party theory for the masses. An that is a completely divisive approach that assures the prima facie loss of at least 47% of the electorate that don't qualify for a Scrooge Old Boy's Club way of governance. Ronald Reagan wasn't simply a Westinghouse consumer conservative, he was a populist that made enough voters look toward him as a job creator and economic stimulator that he out-voted President Carter who had survived a tough Ted Kennedy primary challenge.

Faith can survive bad interpretation of the Bible, bad politics and anti-environmmental leadership yet it does present challenges. 
 
Plainly both parties are advocates for a spoiled middle class and rich constituency that is dulled to political philosophy and nationalism because of their drift into secular sensualism that isn't capable of nationalism or of a modernization of democracy that would be responsive to contemporary environmental, species extirmination, economic and demographic challenges. That's the way the cookie crumbles though and the need to transform the waveform politics of the broadcast spectrum into a personal citizen podcast slice that promotes individual instead of corproate advertising and political organization is a minimum step to take for competent contemporary government (impossible veritably).

The Rush Limbaugh anti-environmentalist test for Republican voters is quite unfortunate as it forces those with an I.Q. over 100 that are honest to find some other person to waste a vote upon perhaps in the Libertarian Party. For a Limbaugh conservative one must sign off on Global warming as a hoax and disregard the science, 500 p.p.m. threshold and the effect of fossil fuels as well as disregard the supply-demand demands of many smarter consumers to have carbon pollution free transportation and more that would conserve the world ecosphere.

It is a  misunderstanding of Adam Smith to believe that capitalism should serve the most stupid and nationally destructive way of going about business so that it concentrates wealth while ignoring the demands of the intelligent members of society to adapt and transform capital allocation fairly, renormalize politically control from mouthpieces of concentrated and global wealth to nationalists and modify methods and structures to keep the electorate and all citizens in a modern, secure, productive and free way of life.
