And now thanks to George Bush II and the Republican congress passing the Medicare bill, the torch has passed.
We're all big government conservatives now, to paraphrase Richard Nixon.
We outdid the Democrats at their own game, but hey, at least Republicans are getting elected.
And no, do not take me or 20 million voters like me seriously and then by all means blame us when Republicans lose elections.

Being a Republican is not what one says.

It is what one does.

And part of what one does must include that one understands that politics is an art and not a science and is not a zero sum game but is the art of achieving the achievable.

As Mr Buchanan's quixotic political degeneration illustrates, dead martyrs are only dead -- and the Republican Party's ideas live on only in those of us who are quick enough of mind, of foot and of hand to stay a step ahead of our enemies, foreign AND domestic.

And to paraphrase our Republican President, you are either with us or you are with the enemy.

In 1992, Mr Buchanan, like it or not -- and as effectively as if it had been his intention -- joined the enemy.

What will you do? Stay with the dead enemy?

Or, instead, join us in celebrating that our party, for the first time since 1928, has captured the levers of power and the machinery of government so comprehensively that even the embedded "DemocRATic"potty activists in the permenant bureaucracy are being rooted?

And in celebrating that by the close of President Rice's Administration, in 2017, every one of Our Nation's judicial benches will be occupied by a strict constructionist -- and Our Beloved FRaternal Republic's Founding Law -- as laid out in the American Declaration of Independence and in our Constitution and Bill of Rights will have been restored to its preeminence?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

Blessings -- Brian
