Today we have (via Think Progress):
Cheney: ‘I think it would be a mistake’ for the GOP to become more moderate.Me? I'm hoping the GOP listens to these folks!
Oh! a private buffoon is a light-hearted loon, If you listen to popular rumour; From the morn to the night he's so joyous and bright, And he bubbles with wit and good humour! He's so quaint and so terse, both in prose and in verse; Yet though people forgive his transgression, There are one or two rules that all family fools Must observe, if they love their profession. [Yeomen of the Guard, Gilbert & Sullivan]

Yes, let them exclude anyone who doesn't think just like them until they become extinct. Maybe a true opposition party will arise.
ReplyDeleteAs long as there is an elite/oligarchy/owner class, there will be a "Republican party." For exactly the same reason that there won't be a "labor" party, as long s there is a "Democratic Party." These arrangements are the perfect expression of the topography of Murkin "Dimocracy": one party, with two apparently--allegedly, putatively, but illusorily competitive, but actually complementary--wings.
