"SNIP...............................
Republicans need to make up their minds: Is President Obama a socialist or a corporate stooge?
The president claims his economic agenda is for the middle class. But its actually for the well-connected, Paul Ryan, the GOPs 2012 vice presidential nominee, wrote this week in USA Today, rejecting Obamas latest proposal for a corporate tax cut. Theres no doubt that it works well for them. But for the rest of us, its not working at all.
Ryan, in his brief commentary, protested that Obama is interested in tax reform for corporations but not for families or small business. He further accused Obama of implementing health-care and regulatory policies that favor big businesses and big banks.
....................
Ryan, after all, is the guy who just a year ago accused Obama of sowing social unrest and class resentment, of supporting a government-run economy and of denigrating people who are successful. He has charged the president with leading the nation toward a cradle-to-grave, European-style social welfare state.

Like chicken pox, insanity is contagious. If you lock a sane person up with a bunch of not sane people after a while you won't tell the difference.
So.......
We get the teabaggers to split off to look for their own utopia. Split their party.
After a time republicans may once again become Republicans.
And even if they never regained any hope of respect it won't matter.
They won't get the votes to do any real damage.
Ya I know. Keep dreaming kid.
