If you want to make a list of the top 5 presidents for undermining the Constitution, W would certainly be there. FDR, Lincoln, LBJ,and Ike would probably round out the list.
You really need to get past the brainwashing that an ‘R’ behind the name means it is a good guy. (It is, however, probably still safe to recognize that the ‘D’ designates a bad guy).
Well aware that those with an "R" by their names aren't always (or even usually) the good guys. Stll of the mind that even a wishy-washy "R" is preferable to any "D", especially and Obama and anyone else they are likely to offer from here on out. I'm willing to fight the battles to deter the "Ds" at every step and not concede the war because a particular battle doesn't give optimal results.
Right now I'm 100% behind Cruz and am donating to his campaign. I would be disappointed, but OK with a Walker if something happens to knock Cruz out of the picture. After that, I would be highly discouraged, but would still vote against the "D", as bad as it may make me feel. I will send any message to the RNC/GOPe that I can even if it is likely to be spinning my wheels - better to actually fight than roll totally over to the enemy. Else, we might as just go ahead and concede because the fight will entail decades of consistent and sustained efforts with a number of setbacks - I won't allow a setback to make me throw my hands in the air and concede as long as there's a chance.
If that makes me brainwashed, so be it - I'll go down with my boots on instead of an apron.
