GOP = R.I.P.

What a pathetic bunch of babies! What a sack of sore losers! For too long, the Grand Old Poop-heads have hidden behind the veil of false Christianity and professed a "conservative" political and social agenda with promises of freedom and equal opportunity for all. Or at least for all white, upper class, "Christian" men. This is not Lincoln's Republican Party.

The Republicans are so out of touch with reality that none in the House and only three in the Senate had the balls to vote for the President's economic plan, despite widespread support from the American people for the President's efforts at bipartisanship. The 'Pubs defended their position on "ideological grounds" (i.e. the midterm elections in 2010), but they're actually digging their own graves. Certainly minority leader John Boehner (call him "Boner" - he hates that!) plans to take on Obama in 2012, so he has no motivation to side with his future rival, and his constituents pay the price.

Don't get me wrong -- I'm not a huge fan of the President's plan. I think far too much time and money have been wasted feeding the fat cats and no help has come to the families desperately struggling to stay employed and in their homes. It sickens me to see that Obama's team of economic advisors are the same guys who got us into this mess, and now they're supposed to get us out? Not without padding their own bank accounts and those of their cronies, I'm sure, but we've got to do something and the President is making changes (for better or worse) at unprecedented speed.

Now some Republican governors are claiming they won't accept any federal bailout money for their states! As if their own citizens don't deserve a share of the tax money which is rightfully theirs! Absolutely insane!!

It really shows who is interested in moving this country forward to catch up with the rest of the world, and who prefers to feather their own nests while promising to "restore" America's traditional values, whatever that means. The truth is, without inclusive party leadership and a modern alternative message, the GOP are doomed to obscurity. And I say "good riddance!"
