Nonsense and exaggeration. The GOP is a solid improvement over any Dem. We need to think Generationally. America isn’t a monolithic whole and it never was. Why do so few FReepers understand the political history of the country or the current state of affairs?

No question. I don't have to like them 100% to know that an (R) majority, HELD TO ACCOUNT for fiscal responsibility is far, far preferable to anything (D)Marxist.

To those that say they will sit at home and pout on election day, if their preferred Conservative is not running?

You're stupid.

Maybe when President Reagan was president and when Newt Gingrich was majority leader.

The GOP is a black hole that consumes all political cash and stifles grassroot republicans for the sole purpose of electing the next set of bureaucrats. Grassroots volunteers have to lie to the average voter to garner votes. How can you explain the relevance of the Constitution today when all they hear is that illegal immigration is an act of love.

A few, yes. As a whole? No way.

We need to think Generationally.

What does that mean? Generationally America has slid further and further to the left. Even the so-called GOP has sidled left to cozy up to the populism of, well, populism.

America isn’t a monolithic whole and it never was.

True, but every bureaucrat exists to one end: To feed themselves at the expense of the taxpayer. Until we can utterly dismantle the bureaucracy known as "Uncle Sam" it will not change. Obama, and to some extent Bush, fed and watered that monolith with so many agencies and sub agencies that more than likely one of your neighbors, if not more, rely on the federal govt. for their existence. How do we convince them to vote to end that?

Why do so few FReepers understand the political history of the country or the current state of affairs?

Why do so many FReepers still believe an "R" automatically connotes someone that is on their side in the belly of the bureaucracy?
