Ooops. Here's that prerequisite glam shot.

The Republicans become more like the Democrats in practice every day. The emphasis is a little different, but both parties increase the size, scope, cost, and intrusiveness of government. We get all the rhetoric and they get all the action.
The Republican Party came into being to supplant the Whigs. They have done such a good job of it that they have become the Whigs!
The question is, is the GOP reformable from within or is a new political vehicle needed?
While I think it may overstate matters to say that there is NO difference, conservatives seem to lose ground no matter which party wins.
I guess Simon and Garfunkel were on to something when they sang:
"Laugh about it, shout about it, When you've got to choose, Any way you look at it, you lose."
I keep getting this mixed up: Is Obama the terrorist and Osama the black guy who can think for himself, or is it vice-versa?
Memo to Michael Peroutka: You weren't even a factor in the election.
Obama bin laden is the bad guy,Osama Barak(or is it Barak Osama?)is the good guy----I think!
Ah forget about it---I'll call my senator,Fat Ted,and ask him(if he's sober)
I agree with the guy that both parties are big government parties, that is, they are parties that "mean to govern," rather than parties that would protect our freedom and liberty, but otherwise leave us alone, as our founding fathers intended.
I even agree that Bush is something of a rationalist, which puts him left of center in my book.
But there are important differences between Bush and the Republicans and the Dems. Bush and most Republicans believe in free enterprise, capitalism, lower taxes, patriotism and family values; those things most Dems oppose these days.
I'm not up to speed on the Constitution Pary, but are they not the remnants of the John Birch Society or some other equally discredited organization?
Bloated government ping.
John Birch Society is not discredited.
"Memo to Michael Peroutka: You weren't even a factor in the election."
At least Peroutka is honestly pro-life and understands the Constitution.
You are assuming tat the esteemed Senator even knows Obama's first name. Ah forget it. I prefer your Senator, who most people Massachusetts see right though to my Dark Angel.
Yeah, they may have been on to something.
Ooops. Here's that prerequisite glam shot.

Surely Michael intended to write.. "..."verbally defecated" speech at the National Press Club..."
May as well be, seeing as how both are entirely worthless.
Considering how little the Democratic Party of today resembles the party of John F. Kennedy (the president who, IMHO, Mr. Bush most resembles) - and considering the reforms Bush is proposing for Social Security - the last thing this country needs is one Democratic Party.One Republican party is a distant second. Not that you would expect the nominee of a conservative third party to discuss that.
"Barack Osama." I saw the Kennedy clip where he fumbled that question about Obama. I hope Rush picks that up line like he did Jesse Jackson calling Her Heinous "Hillary Rodman Clinton," or Joslyn Elders' reference to "Eric Clapner."
We had a beached whale on Cape Cod a short time ago.
Separated at birth?
