I used to divide my votes fairly evenly between Democrats
and Republicans. I began to doubt the
wisdom of that during the Cheney-Bush administration, with its foolish belief
that warfare is good for the American economy and relentless push toward a
Soviet-style police state.
When
Republicans nominated that nitwit Richard Mourdock for senator over Richard
Lugar, I really began to suspect the party had lost its way.
And with the more recent stupidity and
obstructionism in Washington, it’s quite clear that the party no longer has
anything whatsoever to offer most of the American people. It has become the party of ignorance,
prejudice, and privilege.
I’m a good bit
less than happy with Obama’s policies, but he and his fellow Democrats are far
more intelligent and concerned with doing the best for Americans than the
Republicans currently in Washington. I,
for one, will never again vote for a Republican.
What this country needs is a new conservative
party that has no room for the extreme right.
