Welcome to the Democratic Party. Let us unite to save the country.

I'm more uncomfortable with him being in our party than he is.

They should fix their party or form their own new third party, but instead they will infiltrate our party, pull it even further to the right, and we will end up with a right and far right two party system. And if the author is right that the dem party will split, the left will wither and die. At least that's what my crystal ball shows.

and have almost accomplished one party rule while the dems have largely been in reactive mode. We could have used a little more foresight and strategy, IMO.

But getting through tomorrow is always a priority!

I doubt that many other republicans are on this site so they aren’t likely going to read your post. Frankly I am surprised that even you would be here being a conservative. Either way, happy to see an enlightening change.
Make your post on Brietbart and then let us know how that goes. We’re pulling for you.

... or not pay your share of taxes, you should be forced out of business. That's not wrong and it's not unfair -- but Repugs who aren't allowed to play Robber Barons think they're being victimized.

However......NOBODY I have been able to take seriously EVER uses the word "corporatist."

So while I don't discount the possibility that this article might be on the level (after all, I never met the guy, never heard of him before), I won't be waving it in anyone's face, either.

Thanks for waking the fuck up but you don't get a damn trophy for it and all the things that you listed as things that prove your republican worthiness are things that Democratic Americans are as well.

sick of these people who excused all KINDS of shit, until the shit hit the fan and they WOKE UP SPLATTERED

The article shows his black/white thinking and lack of nuance. He's for the things that rethugs claimed for themselves but never acted on, like hardworking and patriotic. He says that he can't go along with Democratic ideas because he doesn't know wtf they are - only the BS that reichwing radio and TV says about them.

He's a nevertrumper rethug. I will thank him for not trying to yank our party to the reich to suit himself.

and that’s what he said would happen to him if Obama won. He would never be able to make a profit and his business would fail.

That was over 12 years ago. He’s still building and selling homes.

This guy sounds like he's in his mid-30's, and he's just the type of person we need to attract into our Party. This Op-ed it simply awesome!

Thanks for posting this Roland99

The first thing we need to do is let the Republican Party suffocate itself into extinction.

The next thing we need to do is allow an honest debate of where the line needs to be drawn for each policy decision we face. The Adam Schiffs and Barack Obamas of the world are far more sensible and compelling than their counterparts on the other side of the aisle, so that line would very likely be quite left of center.
