It was never our GOP, well excluding Reagan years, and even he could not kill off the most evil of the Progressive flagship programs. The Department of Education was one of those campaign platform planks along with Nation Endowment of the Arts and many other equally repulsive programs are still with us.
Oh I agree. Factually that’s the reality. However, all the people that screamed bloody murder for us to ‘unite’ behind that GOP sure think it was ours. So they can’t just pretend the past several years didn’t happen. Thus, ‘our’.
Now I’m sure a lot of people that have been scarce recently (imagine my surprise) ABSOLUTELY consider it theirs. Which is why they went scorched earth in attacking conservatives prior to last month are mysteriously scarce lately. This latest GOP affront to God and all his angels can’t be spun, ducked, sidestepped or given a reality rewrite.
