If the loonies are gone, then I'll consider coming back. Remember that once upon a time, the dems were under the influence of the McCarthy's and McGoverns and eventually, they finally got a clue and kicked the hippies out. Now it's the republican's turn to clean house and get rid of the jams.

Aw HELL no ... despite Nixon and his fellow crooks, my faith in the GOP was restored by Gerry Ford. I maintained. Then came Reagan and I gave up. :(

Gerald Ford is one of the least appreciated caretakers ever, and he was a genuinely good man. Last great American President who could work across the aisle and get things done. Every since Ford, America has been at war with itself and that absolutely sucks.

Gerald Ford was one of the most undervalued American statesmen owing to Saturday Night ridiculing him for being a bit of a klutz, especially on the golf course. But if you actually look into his accomplishments, he was one of the best despite pardoning Nixon to get America past Nixon and his henchmen's stupidity.

LEADERSHIP requires getting past the petty bullshit that defines the teabaggers and getting shit done. Ford DID that. He was a VERY good man throughout his many years of service to America. I feel the same way about Bob Dole. And when the GOP fucked HIM over, I declared war on the GOP myself. Another great American fucked over by today's republican hippies.

Just like they did in the 1970s. Well, it's their next election to lose, and they abandon their base again, they'll break apart like the Whigs did.

The Republican Party has been against progressive programs, since they threw out Theodore Roosevelt in 1912. Removing the Teabaggers isn't going to change 100 years of just saying no.

One thing I don't understand about calling so many Republicans RINOs or liberals is that you are admitting that your point of view is shared by a really small percentage of voters.

You can't call Democrats RINOs!

RINO = liberal Republican (from "Republican In Name Only"). People like Mitch McConnell, Eric Cantor, John Boehner, John McCain, John Cornyn, ad nauseam. So hard to tell the difference, is it?—not being able to tell is a sign of being infected with not liberalism, but hardcore leftism.

The phrase "ad nauseam" has a connotation of there being quite a few of them.

Just wondering what you consider a progressive program?

Did you see my link to a story about a brawl at LA Fitness in Minnesota? Somalis. I'll bet every one of the perps in that story is on some kind of welfare, but of course they can afford a gym membership at LA Fitness.

Is that a progressive program? Jacking up immigrants on welfare while we're broke?
