Fixing Republicans?

The Republican Party has problems.
A lot of them.
One is there is no leadership.
George W is in remission
Cheney is the mumbling bumbling Prince of Darkness, Lord of Torture, a certified human repellent.
Powell is the official Republican Jack O’Lantern who falsely and devastatingly testified in the UN about the soap powder he held in canisters, thus condemning thousands of innocent persons to death
Limbaugh is the obvious spokesperson for the party, and he says Republicans have to get nasty now, and those who won’t have to leave the party.
Rush now says they have to attack Democrats instead of Republicans
Steele says the “honeymoon” is over, now they will tear the Democrats up.
Rove, snapping like a Parana at democrats, is blossoming very turdly toward republicans.

So there is a problem in trying to find out what is wrong with the Republican Party and how to fix it.

But it’s worse than that. America is in terrible shape. Our nation is sick, our education system is disintegrating. Our criminal-”justice” system has more prisoners than any other country in the world. Our industrial system has basically quit producing - anything. Our medical care system has almost 20% of all Americans with no care at all, many others with poor care, while it is the most financially complicated system of any kind anywhere, and the costliest medical system in the world. Our highway system is crumbling and we have virtually no train or subway systems outside of the largest cities, We are fighting two wars, the only “advanced” civilization in the world fighting any wars at all. And there is even more.

And - oh yes - there is the Republican Party, too. Notice though, that it is trying to figure out how to get elected again, how to “fix” the Republican Party, and NOTHING about how to fix America.

Maybe if they could figure out what America needs, they could begin to get the attention of more Americans. But they never will as long as they are trying to “fix” their own party.
