5. It Will Take a National Loss of Goldwater Proportions
That will make them knaves AND fools. At least Goldwater could gain support on certain principles that sounded good. Nobody likes a failed Machiavellian.

7. It will take them wanting to. And that will happen when pigs fly.
Republicans place party loyalty over patriotism and duty to country. They don't give a flying fuck what happens to the country, or the "little people" that live there. It's all about them.

9. Excuse me? Their party *is* corruption and criminal behavior.
Edited on Fri Sep-29-06 03:15 PM by Marr
It's only purpose is to secure power for a small group of wealthy elites. You may as well ask when the mafia will go straight. If they went straight, they wouldn't be the mafia.

That's not just a tarnish on the surface there- it goes right to the core.

11. Money. Money. and... Money.
If there was money in honesty the repukes would hold the patent on it. The repukes will never change because their entire existance is based on greed. How much money and power can I accumulate. Thats why they hate the Dems, because Dems although also greedy are willing to share a little of that money with people who need it. Repukes want it all and they want it now. Even though they don't really work for their money, they will be dammned if they are going to part with any of their "hard earned cash" to help some "welfare queen".

12. A circular firing squad
And maybe a couple of ethical conservatives with the best interests of the nation at heart can re-start it in a few decades.
