Some required reading...
from Time To Behead The Concubines by J.J. Jackson:
Right now in America we have the Republican Party as it sadly exists; a chattering mass of concubines who have come to believe that they are favorites of some higher authority and they will have no harm ever come to them. The problem is that we, the people, who are the real authority behind the Party are not at all amused. We have given them power. We have given them arms. We have even given them orders. But still they sit there and giggle at us as though those orders are not at all important.
We tell them to lower taxes and they giggle. We tell them to reduce the size of government and they giggle some more. We tell them to stand up for innocent human life no matter the age and they laugh out loud. We tell them to return to within the boundaries set up for them by the Constitution and they flip us the bird while mocking us openly. So the answer is obvious to anyone that has ever read Sun Tzu. The axe needs to be sharpened. The heads of the lead concubines must be lowered onto the chopping block. And these fools need to be released from their duties and obligations. It is time to behead those giddy concubines who are in charge and who are not willing to carry out the clear orders given to them.
Yes, it would appear that perhaps we should look to Sun Tzu for a solution, keeping in mind that there are many ways to skin a cat behead a concubine, after all, there is an election coming up. Nothing says term limit better than a lost primary.
And as for senate hopeful from the great state of Florida, Charlie Crist? No way. No way Charlie. We have enough RINOs, we don't need another. I'd rather see that seat go to a flat out democrat then see you sit there and sit with the opposition. Better the devil we know then to watch you stick a knife in our backs. I have deeply regretted voting for you for governor, and I won't repeat that mistake by voting for you for senator.

I'm a bit sensitive when it comes to Sun Tzu, so allow me to clear up what, to me, appears to be a citation taken out of context.
Sun Tzu appeared before King Ho-lu and issues a series of military drills to his concubines as part of a demonstration of leadership. When several of the concubines giggled at Sun Tzu's instructions, he ordered them beheaded.
King Ho-lu begged that they not be killed, saying something to the effect of "without them the sun gives me no warmth and my food has no flavor." Sun Tzu personally beheaded the concubines, remarking that once a general is given authority, the governing leadership (here, the King) must step aside.
A general must never be questioned once he is commanded to perform a military task.
