Hope for Humanity...'Merican Style
College Republicans have commissioned a report to find out why their
peers hate their party so much, and we can sit there and laugh that they spent money to discover the obvious: Words that up-for-grabs voters associate with the GOP: “The responses were brutal: closed-minded, racist, rigid, old-fashioned.” But there were some nuggets of good info in there, such as one-quarter of young voters won't even consider voting for a candidate who holds anti-gay views. I'm telling you, the millennials are changing this country for the better. On the other hand, we can go back to laughing when we see how these young Republicans react to that info: “On the ‘open-minded’ issue, yes, we will face serious difficulty so long as the issue of gay marriage remains on the table,” the authors wrote. “In the short term, the party ought to promote the diversity of thought within its ranks and make clear that we welcome healthy debate on the policy topic at hand.” And: Republicans need to avoid allowing the abortion debate to be “conflated” with debates over contraception, rape and Planned Parenthood, the report recommended. And: “If we don’t believe that Republicans are the ‘fend for yourself’ party, then it’s time for us to explain why — and to show our work,” the report said. “This will go a long way overall, but particularly with Latino voters, who tend to think the GOP couldn’t care less about them.” Fortunately, the Tea Party controlled GOP ain't gonna change, and there are examples aplenty in rec.boats to prove it. http://tinyurl.com/khen9pg |

In 1980, President Reagan asked Americans, “Are you better off now than you were four years ago?”. It was a simple question and it's as revelant today as it was when the last great pesident said it. |
