The GOP has become three parties
Social Cons
Neo-Cons
Business Cons

The problem they face is that there is very little they share in commone except loathing "Big Government and Taxes"

Figure out ways to pit them against eachother and it will splut the party.

1. My theories
I am focused on the Social Cons (I prefer Socio-Cons).

Now, the Socio-Cons own the 'christian' Right, which would make them the most powerful segment in the GOP if you are looking at sheer numbers and gullibility factors of the followers. Added together, they also have the most wealth.

I say we need to destroy the 'christian' Right through a series of Wedge Issues.

5. Best way to split the social Cons is to use "voodoo politics" on them in
the mold of Rove. Let's trot out every corrupt Ralph Reed type and sex offender among the GOPs religious right. Rub their noses in every pile of caca. Make sure they know that they have fouled their own nests and pit them against one another. Start pasting up pictures of Falwell and Moon everywhere. I'm sick of their stink. Make the public sick of them so a little sunshine and fresh air will be begged for by the people.

2. I don't want to split the Pukes.......I want to exterminate them.
I want them to be nothing more than a footnote in history. A brief dalliance of immoral, illegal, activity's that ended in the near destruction of the USA and the complete destruction of the Republican party.

7. The way you do this is a Constitutional Amendment on a Right to Privacy

It will split the social cons on the issue of overreaching government vs pro-lofers; The NeoCon pundits will oppose it because of the war on Terra. and the Business cons will applaud it because of what they perceive as excessive regulation and red tape

8. Business Cons love Big Government
The Military-Industrial Complex lives as a parasite on handouts from Big Government.

9. I think you are wrong. They like big gov. and big defense
I think you should have said they hate taxes and are all for military power in their hands.

12. Neo-Cons, Paleo-Cons and Proto-Cons
Proto-Cons are the ones really running the party now.

Proto-Cons are the Repukes lifted straight out of the kangaroo courts of The Salem Witch Trial and the Spanish Inquisition.
