    this morning i am thinking of the silence of responsible Republicans who allow their leaders to dance to the political tune of the extremists…

    but deadly silence applies to democrats as well who have allowed their party to become co-opted by people calling themselves progressives but more accurately following the dictates of libertarians..

    it’s easy to say.. well this is better than the alternative but the truth is that the extremists in both parties are rapidly destroying that which we are trying to defend…

    the choice between worse and worse isn’t much of a choice

    Who in your party are the extremists?

    The only extremists left in the Dem party are the Blue Dogs, Rich. What, you thought I was going to say there were extremists to the left of the party? They’re now in what used to be the center.

    Both parties seem to have moved to the left which in the Republican party helped spawn the Tea Party. (And of course much more spending by Democrats once they were in power again).

    The best chance Democrats have is Republicans. While they fight each other (RINO vs Tea Partier), it will give the Democrats opportunities in the next election.

    Yup, Not so many Blue Dogs as there used to be. Getting fewer and fewer too.

    HMCRich..

    i don’t know what universe you live in.. but the truth couldn’t be further than your pronouncement

    “Both parties seem to have moved to the left which in the Republican party helped spawn the Tea Party.”

    heck.. there was just a study done that pretty much lays it out…

    but no.. i don’t expect you to read it.
