I do as well, Daryle. It's as though all of the neo-cons lunged for the GOP Self-Destruct Switch at the same time. We need the balance of bipartisanship to make anything approaching the American Dream a reality, and that won't happen for some time, as long as the most vocal members of the party are Rush and Savage.

Date : Sun, 12 Jul 2009 17:21:35 -0400 From : Daryle Lockhart <dar...@darylelockhart.com> To : scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com This is going to come across as crazy to many of you, but here goes: I feel sorry for true conservatives. I don't think they ever believed it was going to come to this. but they co-signed a mob mentality by allowing "the Architect" to run rampant for 9 years (first during the campaign and then 8 FULL years in Bush 2.0's reign) and now, yeah, you have that scene from "This Is England" where the kid's in the back of the car after leaving a white supremacist meeting and says "do you really believe all that stuff" and gets thrown out of the car. I was sorta hoping to have good debate between TRUE conservatives and some TRUE liberals, and the moderates would be able to contribute some things as well, but this neo-con stuff has completely taken over. The Republican party has a lot of work to do. The sex scandals, gay and straight, are out of control. As an organization, they are becoming ineffective. They need leadership, but all they keep getting are employees, regurgitating company policy. "When Jim was General Manager, we never had these problems!!" Yes, but Jim was fired and sent to jail for embezzling funds. So let's get past our crush on Jim, and fix the company. I really expected the true conservatives to take their party back. Shame on me.
