The business of government should be our country's businesses. Our government should do everything possible to help those businesses which is easy to do. Just leave them alone and don't tax them to death. Of course they shouldn't be allowed to destroy the environment but other than that the government should not interfere except to give them virtually anything they want that might help our economy grow.
Unfortunately the tax and spend Democrats get everything backward. They're right about scientific progress, science education, and the environment, but they don't seem to understand how capitalism works.
Unfortunately the Republican politicians, like most of the people who vote for them, are wrong about virtually everything except the economy. For example they want to throw out our constitution so they can make America a Christian theocracy, including teaching the Bible in biology classrooms. It's impossible to more bloody stupid than that.
One Republican candidate for president, Jon Huntsman, has warned other candidates to not let the GOP become an anti-science organization. Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman warned that the GOP shouldn't "run from science." So I'm not surprised that out of ten Republicans trying to win the nomination for president, Jon Huntsman is last in a Gallup poll.
After eight years of George W. Bush does America need another anti-science president? I don't think so.
The Republican Party have given this country the choice between an idiot and a Democrat for President of the United States, which is no choice at all.
HA: "I'm a Republican who frequently votes for Democrats because most Republican politicians are god soaked idiots."
ReplyDeleteI stopped being a Republican when they were hijacked by the bible thumpers -- as I recall, it started with Eisenhower ("under god") and went downhill from there. I'm a registered Independent (an official designation that may not be available in all states), and it has worked out quite well. Neither major party bombards me with robocalls and propaganda. For me, "independent" is the political analog of "atheist," except that my GOP and Demo friends don't wave bibles in my face. ;)
Unfortunately, in almost every political race, rather than picking the "better" candidate, voting has become a matter of going with the lesser evil. Any current candidate from God's Own Party is simply out of the question.
Republican Party = GOP = Grand Old Party = God's Own Party.
ReplyDeleteYour God's Own Party is very accurate. Thanks.
