What the *#@% Is Wrong With Republicans?!
Aug 27, 2012 1:00 AM EDT



It's not just Akin. By pushing some of the most invasive state policies in modern history, the men of the GOP are driving their party off a cliff.

There is something wrong with the Republican Party, the survival of which demands more than a few moments of self-examination and reflection. I wouldn’t use the word "stupid," though it is tempting. Suicidal seems more apt. The GOP, through its platform, its purity tests, pledges, and its emphasis on social issues that divide rather than unite, has shot itself in the foot, eaten said foot, and still managed to stampede to the edge of the precipice. Is extinction in its DNA?

3. I'm With You On The Repugs Self-Destruction But......

how do you explain the polls that show this country almost evenly divided. That's not a sign of extinction - cause it that was the case being evenly divided one could make a similar argument (only 180) for the Dem party.


As an aside - when I first saw your picture - I thought it was the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. LOL

and it's been that way since Nixon, but it really got rattling along w/Reagan.

This is for the current era only, there have plenty of cruddy R's...but never as bad as what we have now.
