My hope is that, if nothing else, Republicans will agree with the obvious; the party is in trouble and it has NOTHING to do with being too conservative. Far from it.
Spectre is a leftwinger. Of course the GOP is too far right for him. That's why I asked "According to whom".

Are you Spectre? No? I didn't say "Is the GOP a mess because, according to Arlen Spectre, the party has been too far to the right'?"

I ask you, Morton.

Are you saying the party has moved too far to the left?

Not conservative enough. You have too many whiney azz people in this country today that want the gov't to take care of them. They vote people into office that will do just that. Now you have Obamy and his Congress making all the rules so that the gov't runs everything and people no longer have to take care for themselves or think for themselves. Socialism and we're not far from it. Along with the nanny gov't people are going to have to live without their freedom and that hasn't yet sunk in to many of the "I wanna be taken care of" generation. The GOP isn't the problem, but if they were more conservative and worked together, we wouldn't be in the mess we're in today.

Now just stop it. you're making the argument that this country has moved to the left and that just ain't so.

Right Larry?

Right Larry?
There may be hope. Was getting my car worked on and while in the waiting area I got talking to a nice young lady of about 23 years old. We were watching the news and she was commenting on how screwed up Obama and his bunch in Congress are and how this country needs to turn the other direction. Smart girl. Reminds me of my own daughter.
