She was a Democrat, so this is no surprise. Seriously, it's better to be a strong and vibrant minority party than a demoralized and capitulating big tent party. The issue here, folks is ideas not party affiliation. It does us no good to support Democrats just because they call themselves a Republican.

That mindset elevates ACQUIRING power above actually moving policy in a proper direction. The problem with the RINOS, is that you wind up having to appease them. And they wind up causing you to look skitzo because to appease them, you do things that cause the voters to say "well, fuck... if they're going to spend money like drunken sailors anyway, then hey, I'll just vote for the Dims because they give me the same thing and they say I don't have any responsibility for my lot in life either." And Dave... it should be clear by now: The fact that RINOs are selected to cement POWER in the committee structure is more about dolling out pork and keeping "in power" than about being conservative at the end of the day. And that's just one more reason, if one were needed, why the power and money in federal government ought to be constricted. The amount of graft that will be paid to politically connected "anointed ones" under the typical federal program is just baffling. And in many (if not most) cases, things like the federal highways and other key infrastructure excepted, the states and cities could get more appropriate and accountable programs in place instead. |
