We were wrong. Even as Ronaldus Magnus led our Republic to new worldwide heights, there were moles in the party plotting to tear us down--the Donald Regans and such-- and when the mantle was passed to the politically skinny shoulders of GHWBush, they began to undermine the edifice of the City on the Hill.
If this is a restoration, let it be a restoration to 1988.
Very well said.
Regular GOP when into downfall on steroids when Bush,the rookie, asked experienced Cheney to help pick the VP and he picked himself and larded the administration with his think alikes to take over the Government.
The Republican Party died on November 1, 1988. It’s been a long, slow decay, but the stench of death has been getting stronger all the time. Now, all that’s left is bones. I no longer think it’s possible to breath life into what’s left over.
As of this morning, I’m an independent. I will no longer “vote for the most conservative in the primary and the one with an R after their name in the general election.” I did that for too many years. All it has gotten us is a bunch of good-for-nothing RINOs.
To paraphrase another Freeper, it is better to take a step toward a majority in thought, than a leap toward a majority in name.
I’m done with the GOP. If I vote for a GOP candidate in the future, it will be because I want to see that particular person in office, not because they put an R after their name.
