The Stupid Party Strikes Again

SEE HERE Joseph Sobran characterized the Republicans as "the stupid party." They seem to have their heart in the right place but over and over and over again they blow it. It reminds me of Lucy taking the football away just as Charlie Brown is going to kick it ... over and over and over again and Charlie is always gulled into doing it again. Well substitute the Democrats for Lucy and the Republicans for Charlie Brown. Don't get me wrong. I subscribe to most of the Republican principles, only I think, unlike apparently the elected Republicans, that when you have principles you act like it and stick to them. The Republicans are always making deals with Democrats, giving up just a little here and a little there so that we never get Republican principles actually enforced only Democrat lite, you know, for bipartisanship and compromise. Of course when the Democrats are in control you don't see any bipartisanship, only demonization and rejection. Let's get at least one thing straight: We are on a path that leads to dissolution of the republic. The Democrats want to fast track it and the Republicans want to stop it, but are short on follow-through. If we can't get people of principle who will stick to their principles into power, we simply will sink into the slime of history as just one more failed experiment.
