Thanks for the clarifications. You made a number of important points, and did so in a very fair manner. I sincerely appreciate it. The hearings should certainly be interesting - if we get that far. I think it's possible that as the hearings approach, her advisors might decide she is not quite ready for prime time, and she could at that point bow out.
Thanks for the link to that Fund article. Fund writes good columns in the WSJ, but I've never been a huge fan of his. Some of those WSJ op-ed writers aren't all that conservative -- they're more of the "economic conservative / social moderate" type of Republican that is so common in the Northeast.
You're right about that. I like John Fund, I always did. So, I'm awfully glad he changed his mind.
OK, I was a little concerned that she might be getting blamed for paraphrasing that might be the doing of the person taking the minutes.
"The Democrat party that Reagan left was politically to the right of the current GOP. They spent less and were more faithful to America. Sad, ain't it."
Exactly!
A lot of people mistake republican victories as a sign of the country moving right. Instead, both parties have moved to the left, conveniently placing the 'pubs right on top of the "mainstream" (aka socially moderate, fiscally liberal)block of US voters.
Some victory.
Yah, this alleged second coming of Reagan was a Democrat all through the Reagan Presidency. Another lame avenue of wishful thinking exploded by a mere cursory inspection of the (thin) record.
You are spouting off RNC talking points...and poor ones at that.
Did you even read what she wrote? It is utter crap.
