The GOP has been moderated into a coma. Its time for the “moderates” to moderate the party that actually needs it.
The GOP actually IS the aprty of the rich, and compared to the rest of the world, individually speaking, most Americans are rich. so, the GOP needs to make the point that they are the party of all Americans, but they won’t, and maybe they can’t. Pop culture has a majority of
Americans convinced that they are poor.
The author misses that point that the past two years Obama play acted like he was reaching out to Rs so he could accuse them of rejecting everything.
He found that an effective tool in getting re-elected, and getting House Rs to give in to crappy deals.
Having got re-elected it looks like O calling for all out war against Rs, his way or the high way, get americans to demand that the GOP do his bidding.
Time will tell what his real play is.
A black man was admonishing people on tv yesterday to “support our President”. - Well, where the President doesn’t contradict the written Word of God; I’ll support him. Where he does, I won’t. - Also, Obama speaks so much “teleprompterese” and says one thing today and something totally opposite tomorrow. So, where the clarion call is not clear, but muddled with contradiction; define “support” of the President.
I resigned from the GOP 2 years ago. I am now a registered Conservative.
RE “Colon” Powell: Mark Twain once said something to the effect that if you picked up a starving dog and made it prosperous, it would not bite you—This being the principal difference between a dog and a man.
My wife said she heard that Condi Rice just signed up with CBS.I haven’t been able to find anything on that.
I couldn’t stand “Daddy” Bush. But I was told W is more like his mother. Then I learn, after the 2004 election, that “Momma” Bush is a phony, too, when she insulted Palin and therefy insulting the rest of us. These are the Rockefeller republicans WE put into office. And they gave us Rice, Powell, Roberts et al.
The republican party has moved way to the left. But Powell is saying he went to work for them when they were way to the right. Yet they invited him in.
The gop in congress are willing to anything to keep their majority. And their motive is not for the good of the country. They simply want the perks and prestige. If they truly cared about the country they’d get out of the way and let the democrat party destroy itself.
