I am no Bush apologist. He lost me on immigration and his bail out. I could have done without the war as well, but I support the military. That being said, the insanity of the left when it comes to facts, especially the media’s fawning over Obama is repugnant. I think the Republicans lost when they decided they wanted to be a big tent circus. It is not working for the Dems, so why would it work for them. Both parties leave a lot to be desired and both will have to morph into something that supports core values of the majority of those the government serves or neither will survive. A party built on a loose coalition of fringe groups will not last in the long haul and will not survive the looming monetary crisis or leadership crisis.
