A Broken Republican Party

Rush Limbaugh couldn’t be more wrong. The very worst of what constitutes republican ideology is all that is left of the party nowadays. Their numbers are dropping, and he is mostly to blame for it. How ironic that people think of Rush as the glue that holds the party together when, in actuality, he’s driving them apart.
I can’t say a broken GOP saddens me though. Those who listen to Limbaugh’s daily radio whine are not the kind of people I want leading my country. The deeper these morons follow Rush into the wilderness, the better off America (and the real republican party) will be.
Rush Limbaugh is driven by greed. What else would explain his willingness to destroy the GOP? And how ironic is it that he has driven the party to such mediocrity, yet his listeners continue to allow him to lead?
Roberta McCain is right when she says that she and Rush belong to two different parties. Democrats realized a long time ago that Limbaugh’s love for the almighty dollar trumped that of any feelings he may have towards America. Maybe it’s not too late for real republicans to realize that fact and take back their party.

(CNN) — Rush Limbaugh responded to Roberta McCain’s criticism of his tough radio persona Thursday, joking over the fact “McCain’s mother is dumping on me.”
“She is absolutely right” in her assessment that that she belongs to a different Republican Party than he does, Limbaugh said during his radio show: “The Republican Party she belongs to gets shellacked election after election after election.”
In an appearance on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno Wednesday, the outspoken 97-year-old mother of Sen. John McCain said, to cheers from the audience, that Limbaugh “does not represent the Republican Party that I belong to.”
“I belong to the Republican Party,” she said. “What he represents of the Republican Party has nothing to do with my side of it. I don’t know what the man means, I don’t know what he’s talking about.”
On his show Thursday, Limbaugh made clear he found the criticism quite amusing.
“Sending Sen. McCain’s mother out to dump on me?” Limbaugh said, laughing. “I love it.”

Personally, I think both parties have problems. The Republicans bend over backwards trying not to offend the Democrats while forgetting about the people that put them in office. That’s why I left them several years ago. The Democrats,… What more can be said, all they are interested in is the total destruction of the American way. It’s not fair if someone that takes a chance and puts his or her life saving on the line to follow a dream and have that dream come true. Why should they make more money than the freeloaders that sit at home waiting for their welfare checks to come in? These people, the ones that take chances, create jobs for other hard working Americans. Think about it, how many of you have worked for a homeless guy or anyone that’s on welfare? It’s the people that take chances that create the jobs, and they are the ones being targeted by the Democrats for higher taxes. Now you have the Democrats adding pork in the stimulus package to pay leftwing organization like acron billions so they can spread the wealth. Taxing these businesses will only result in higher un-employment.
Unfortunately I think it’s too late for the United States. China will be the only real super power on the earth once the U.S. fails. Our economy is going to collapse because we have people in power now that can not stop spending money. Medicaid is going bankrupt, Social Security is going bankrupt, yet the think we can afford socialized medicine. Totally Amazing.

I agree, ray... both parties are equally evil. The republican party are nothing more than a bunch of low-life assholes. And the democrats, well, they have an 'm' in the middle of their name.
Bastards, all of them.

Whee! Welfare queens are destroying America! Let's ignore all actual data and argue from couterfactual theory! Ronnie Ray-gun! Ronnie Ray-gun!
Gosh, funny how during Bush, and his two massive tax giveaways to the richest Americans, unemployment went up. The New Deal created jobs. Conservative economic policies have destroyed them, and the entire world economy.
