The Republican Party is dead to me...
I have no more time for their nonsense. I am sick of their games. Their pretending that they are for healthcare reform, deficit reduction, job creation, and whatever they think the American people will buy has hit a brick wall. Nobody should believe a word they say. The President was right. They obstruct and block things that could help the American people just because they can. They don't really give a shit.

2. It has been dead to me since Nixon. Nothing but increasingly bad chapters.
It is so bad that I've lost friendships over it, as I can't respect people who have some of the thoughts, beliefs and behaviors that they do.

There's mojitos being served in the lounge. Make yourself at home.

We were wondering where you were.

4. Republicons are regressive, greedy, lying, thieving, scheming, unimaginative
parasitical, mean-spirited, uncivil, closeted, treasonous, homo/xeno-phobic, racist, selfish, cheating...

Help me out here people--how do I end this description?

9. Actually ...
I have known this for over 45 years. I'm just stating it here for the benefit of the trolls that inhabit this domicile from time to time. :-)

7. They are cowards never offering a solution. It's always easy to sit back and criticize.
They are too chicken to offer something that THEY may be criticized for.

And, wow imagining offering a possible solution that might actually work! No way. Help people? 'We can't do that - that might make Obama look good!'

10. The last half way decent Repub Pres was either Poppy Bush or Gerald Ford
and Poppy Bush was only good on foreign affairs - he sucked on the economy which is why Clinton kicked his ass in 1992.

Reagan really sucked and Junior Bush was 10 times worse.

Gerry Ford was at least a decent guy who believed in the rule of law and by modern standards he was WAY too moderate for the GOP.
