Brain -> Facing extinction: The responsible Republican (7/11/2010 7:36:59 PM)
|
Any Party that would drive America to the brink of ruin then try to pin the blame on the successor instead of offering to help repair the damage (the Republican Party has decided to do everything to extend the misery and is hoping that will get them back in). I call that a forfeiture of responsibility/leadership and I don't think the GOP will do anything in the future to help the common man. The Republican Party is no longer worthy of the trust of the American People.

Having suffered a landslide defeat in a primary this year -- largely because he challenged the extremism of the far right and refused to pander to the "birthers" in his district -- Inglis is now speaking out about the direction of his party. http://www.salon.com/news/opinion/joe_conason/2010/07/09/gop/index.html South Carolina congressional candidate Bob Inglis speaks to the media after his loss in the runoff election to Trey Gowdy on June 22.
