Subject: RE: BS: Obit: The Republican Party
Bobert, Thank you for saving me from starting this thread.
They entire name of the Republican party should go. It is baggage that true conservatives no longer need or want. I have seen staunch republicans peel the GOP stickers off their bumpers.
The only platform that would do them any good is a jobs platform.
The secessonists, racists, evangelicals and gun fanatics could gather behind the jobs banner but the big money of the party that was designed for total corporate rule of the country would not want to get on board with what could be deemed a new labor movement.
For now the GOP is the no party, the do nothing and pray party, the "I'm so pissed of that were gonna go kill us some *****, party"
Whatever fundamental change the GOP makes will by human nature be fundamentally irrational and not helpful except to cause more violence and hate.
They need to bury the dead elephant. The name they should choose is ... FOX. It could stand for Freedom Or Xtinction and members would be called Freedomists. (of course the plan would be to eliminate freedoms, but that is another story)
