Opiinion piece from the Washington post, of all places. I'm totally biased but I present this here as something well worth reading if not discussing.

"Let’s just say it: The Republicans are the problem.

...

We have been studying Washington politics and Congress for more than 40 years, and never have we seen them this dysfunctional. In our past writings, we have criticized both parties when we believed it was warranted. Today, however, we have no choice but to acknowledge that the core of the problem lies with the Republican Party.

The GOP has become an insurgent outlier in American politics. It is ideologically extreme; scornful of compromise; unmoved by conventional understanding of facts, evidence and science; and dismissive of the legitimacy of its political opposition.

Yeah it's a rare moment in the past few decades when the Republicans are for the Little Guy.

Someone's got be there. Seeing how the Liberals have abandoned the little guy, and would rather put them on the poor house dole, and hold them there in a holding pattern, rather, than allow them to advance to the next level.

If they seem dysfunctional, it's because they are in conflict with the advocates for the little guy, clashing with the old money standard, that has gripped the GOP, since Regan.

One thing for sure, there is no room in the Democrat party for that CRAP.
Looking out for the little guy and the middle class that is...
I say, I say Pay attention Son, is this thing on? That boy is sharp as a 1 meg video card.
