Why are we ever shocked at the lengths to which the GOP will go to destroy the Democratic Party and anything associated with it?
Remember, this is the party responsible for badgering, belittling and eventually filing a trumped-up impeachment of the last Democrat to hold the office they believe should be exclusively theirs—by right or might, lies, arm-twisting, murder, and/or deals carried out in smoky back rooms or private board rooms.
I remember, ten years ago, never believing that the party out of power would carry their thirst for supremacy all the way to an attempt to oust the duly elected President of the United States. But then it happened…I was aghast. Weren’t we all, really?
Now we have a Democrat in office, one who was elected by a people sorely burned by eight years of Republican lies, bumbling, avarice and sword-rattling. The GOP screwed up everything they touched, and the people rewarded them by soundly throwing them out of office.
But the Republican Party has no intention of mending its ways. It has no intention of trying to “regroup” and reform itself into a party that speaks to the needs of the American people. Let’s face it…they don’t CARE about the American people. Have they not made that more than plain? Have they not proven that what they CARE about are power and money? For themselves, and themselves alone? Have they not proven that they will lie, cheat, steal, kill; attack and disgrace anyone or anything standing between them and the power to rule the world?
So don’t kid yourselves into thinking that Joe Wilson’s outburst at President Obama’s speech last night was any kind of mistake. That it was not carefully planned. That it was not part of the GOP’s continuing agenda to disgrace and discredit this President. Think about it.
Think very hard about the lengths to which the GOP will go to oust a sitting Democratic president. Think about the “Obama Birth Certificate” furor. Think about the “Socialism” ranting. Think about how we never thought the GOP would actually impeach Bill Clinton. If they did not hesitate to carry through with that plan, what might they have cooked up for Mr. Obama?
They will stop at nothing. And we had best get that in our heads, and act accordingly.

Amen, sister amen. I won't vote for a Republican again. Ever. I don't care if it's the reincarnation of Sister Theresa vs. Atilla the Hun.
The party is damn near bankrupt here in Oregon. Anybody got a great big saw?
Another thing that I find infuriating about conservatives is that some of them are suddenly blaming the deficit on Obama! Absolutely amazing...the hypocrisy is staggering.
I would like to say that I vote for the person NOT the party. I've seen both sides embarrasse themselves. We are a polarized nation and with that comes finger pointing and name-calling no matter who is in offie. Personally I am pissed at both sides. SHAME on them.....for not represting the people of this nation honestly and with dignity. Anne
