The Republicans welcomed the hatred spewed by the disseminators of hatred and division that has led them down a dark dead end with no escape. It is either capitulation as expressed by Romney and severance with the hate brigade and the death of the party. But. regardless of the choice the present Republican Party days are numbered. If Trump survives and runs in 2020 their party will be split, crash and burn. The writing is on the wall. There is no escape for their embrace of evil. Good riddance to an evil, corrupt, unlawful enterprise that is a cancer eating at the very foundations upon with this nation was built. Let them eat each other alive in fevered madness like the ghouls they have become. The end of the tragedy they have visited on our nation can not be soon enough for real patriotic Americans who stand for Life, Liberty and Happiness and most importantly justice for all mankind regardless of birth, color, ethnicity, religion and sex.

Sorry, I heard it in my head.

Kidding aside, the snowball of resistance is rolling along.

Happy New Year Jane Curtin

In my best vampire/werewolf fighting suit.

I'm with her!

Alas! Even if the name dies, there will always be the two sides.

Well done

Spot on.

Right on! Land Shark Level reference!

Can't wait to see the right-wingers explode on this.

It'd be like calling them home.

Like every two bit con artist, they'll just regroup, move on and pull another alias out of this asses.

They should call themselves The Kleptocrats. No, I guess the 'crat' part is too like their political adversaries. Maybe Kleptocons?

It's not the Party that is the problem. It's the way they view things. For us on the left, too. These things don't change, except gradually over time. Over generations. But we can hopefully keep them out of office.

Prion disease in its terminal stage with the Republicans (thanks to Charles S. Pierce for the prion reference, so true).

I'd highly recommend it. He was dying and he knew it so he let it all out. Some funny stories about Frankn (and one really sad one) as well as Aykroyd and Jerry Garcia stories.

Great writing, great stories.

Who’d have imagined, back then?

I always wished that I had curly hair, rather than pin-straight.

Curly hair has a mind of it’s own. No matter how you try to style it.

in it and in our history those people have migrated from party to party and thats what they will do if the Repugnant party should actually die.

The rock solid base of the modern Republican Party are the old dixiecrats, the people that still worship the confederacy and treason. Until their children and grandchildren totally reject that worship and treat each non White person as a unique individual, change will not happen.

The country has a big problem with the modern Republican Party being in the picture. We are better off as a country when that party no longer exists.
