What infuriates me is that elected Republicans behave as republicans and compromise away their principles in order to be less "mean-spirited." What a bunch of crap!
We elected Republicans in hopes that they would become REPUBLICANS, not slop-boys for the liberal democrat pigs in Congress!
I am searching for the right term to call these benedict republicans. "Pubbies" is a little to cutesy for the slim that they are. Any suggestions?
The elected officials of this nation, by and large, no longer see themselves as 'civil servants' but as 'civil masters'. That is obvious when one looks at the actions the federal governemt has taken since 9/11.
Times will get tough in this country, but I refuse to believe that we are all sheep. Freedom will reign again. As Thomas Jefferson said, "What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure." --Thomas Jefferson to William Stephens Smith, 1787. ME 6:373, Papers 12:356
