It’s pretty funny to watch all the former proud Republicans run as fast as they can from their true political party identification.
We have Dino Rossi hiding his dead-end, right-wing agenda behind the G.O.P. label rather than the party he has always said he belonged to, the Republican Party.
Why are Republicans running as fast as they can from the real name of their political party? A good guess would be the simple fact that this country has been run into the ground by Republicans.
Republicans have started needless wars, based on lies.
Republicans have enabled the huge sucking sound of our jobs going overseas.
Republicans have told us they are conservatives while doubling the national debt in seven years.
Republicans have used fear to pass draconian, unconstitutional laws that have stripped Americans of their rights.
Republicans have taken our country from the shining city on the hill to a debt-ridden, fearful country distrusted by our allies and friends.
It is no wonder that rich professional politicians like Rossi are running from the Republican brand.
Unfortunately, they are not running from its bad ideas, they are only running from the label.
