1. Molly Ivins said it best: Republicans don't want to govern; they want to rule.
And this "Pledge to America" is a lot of hooey. Too long and complicated...

4. Bad money spent on Frank Lutz
or, most likely, a Lutz wannabe

I agree. It is too long (syllables) and bland.

2. We see what kind of governing they do.....
look at what happened during Reagan's reign, George H. W. Bush and the wimp George W. Bush.

3. When they are in charge
They don't want any governing when somebody else is doing it.
