This author should be running “Team Building” programs for the RNC.
I have NEVER thought this way. If my life sucks it is up to me to make it better. Govt is a necessary evil to do things I just can't do for myself, like form an Army to fight an invasion., etc.
Did Karl Rove write this screed?
The GOPe attacked Gov. Palin under the command of
Mr. Willard RomneyCARE (RAT).
The RAT then did nothing as America as been assaulted
over and over.
The GOP is the party of the RAT and ObamaCARE/RomneyCARE.
NO MORE GOP. EVER.
And that, kids, is why I get my fast food from Burger King.
I’ve certainly eaten enough RINO burgers for one lifetime.
That was true once, but is no longer.
I don't trust pub-e's any more than I trust demorats.
The entire premise of this essay is false:
McDonalds product, no matter how they spin it, is rubbish.
Lowry accuses the GOP of being inconsistent, lacking core principles, and unable to communicate to all audiences. I find his column does not help me understand how both Olympia Snowe and Ted Cruz both fly the GOP banner yet probably could not find enough common ground for them to join in making a core principles stand for America on many issues. In truth, there are not many GOP members of that could sign Lowry’s manifesto without wanting some kind of codicil to give the member some wiggle room at election time.
The GOP is beyond being able to learn anything.
If you want cheap, fast with taste additives go to McDonalds. If you want quality and the chance to support a Godly business go to Chick Fil A.
Bottom line, this kid is a "open Tent" RINO
Mostly very good. The republican party needs to stand for something and be much much better at marketing. My only argument is in #3. His arguement about speaking inclusively is fine. We do need to to bring people in, but his comment about being bombastic and speaking like a talk show host is wrong. The problem is being to morally mouthed and consultant driven in order not to offend that is the problem. It is uninspiring. The vast majority of 2010 candidates sounded more like a talk show host than politician. They took bold stands, contrasted with Obama and pelosi, and inspired the voters. McCain and Romney tiptoed around speaking boldly and got crushed. Cruz was about the only one that ran in 2012 that sounded like our candidates in 2010. Reagan was extremely bold and ideological. Noisy listen to his speeches. Does anyone claim that Obama is always inclusive and does not incite. He calls out enemies, and goes way beyond anything I have ever heard from a nominee or sitting president.
We need bold candidates that challenge status who thinking. Sounding like a talk show host pulls people in. That’s why they build large audiences and regularly convert democrats to their thinking.
yeah but McD’s tastes better and it’s cheaper
I’d say the pubbies have learned the McD lessons quite well.
They’ve been advertising juicy fare forever and delivering garbage with mechanical efficiency. The products they deliver will prove fatal in the end and are little different from the competitors other than product name. Advertising seems to be their best product and their franchises are packed all across the nation filled with people hungry for good fare but duped by ease and hype. In the end, the consumer gets nothing of substance other than substandard swill concocted with ‘secret’ ingredients to make addicts and, thus, a stable full of complacent feeder pigs of their consumers. In short, their product is a lie; the pleasure is chemical and ephemeral; and the continual consumption of their fare is amortal danger to its willing customers.
Of course, I’m talking about Republican politics here . . .
Not for the price. I get a decent burger and an iced coffee for $2, in a matter of minutes. No surprises.
Wouldn’t Ruth’s Chris be a better goal?

What a freaking idiot, McDonalds goal is to make a profit.
