Another listener wonders: ?What happened to the ?party of principle??

It got sick in the mid eighties, when it moved into the 'big tent', and became terminal when in became 'kinder & gentler'.

Today the GOP is like the corpse in 'Weekend at Bernies', being driven around by a couple of smart*sses calling themselves 'fiscal republicans'.

LOL! Great Imagery!

Let's Call it "Weekend at Vincente's", and have Rove as the Andrew McCarthy charachter!

Exactly, whothehell wants a "kinder and gentler" gov't? ....Or a "compassionate" one, for that matter. I just want them to get out of my wallet, my gun rack, and my face. ......and to protect the damn borders against illegal invasion. Too much to ask? Apparently so.

The last Republican to serve in the White House was this man . .

(Unfortunately, the U.S.A. is unable or unwilling to produce another leader such as Ronald Reagan.)

This idea that government was beholden to the people, that it had no other source of power is still the newest, most unique idea in all the long history of man's relation to man. This is the issue of this election: Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American Revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capital can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves." -- Ronald Reagan's Speech at the 1964 National Convention: A Time for Choosing

ROTFLMAO, forgive me but I have to steal this one. I have not laughed this hard in months. Thanks I needed that.

I agree, that's pretty funny, but sadly true.
