I reached the conclusion that all Republicans should be excluded from running our government. Either
because it's just too much for their tiny brains to handle (HARD WORK) or because they are 100% devoted to ideology. I reach this conclusion based on their various statements during several oversight committees.

I've never heard of a group of people that have experienced collective amnesia! They can't remember meetings, communications, or how decisions were made.

Now, I worked for IBM for 30 years, and I can recall meetings, conferences, discussions, and decisions made in the 1970's. While I might not know the exact dates of those things, I have a ball park estimate of when they happened. While i might not remember every participant's name and title, I still have notes from all of them (I'm a pack rat) and could refresh my memory with them.

These fools are either so incompetent and claim to be so over-worked that they lack all that or they are designed to spend all their time and energy on their neocon ideology. They should never be allowed to hold any office anywhere.

1. You can't govern effectively if you don't believe in government to begin with
Republicans can't govern, or legislate, and that's the long and the short of it.

2. I agree in part; but obviously things aron't going to turn out that way
Or to put it another way, I believe that the American people should never elect another Republican, but it's a depressing reality that they probably will. And any mechanism put in place to ensure they don't could be used for bad purposes.

3. I hear you. I just think we should constantly be pointing out to everybody we talk to how
totally incompetent and 'shifty' those in this administration are. I'm not proposing making the GOP illegal or anything.
