It's not that I think stupidity should be punishable by death. I just think we should take the warning labels off of everything and let the problem take care of itself.

From The Political Vine comes this bit on Republicans. Georgia Republicans in this case, but I think the first couple of paragraphs apply to most of the ones in Washington - especially those in the White House.
Let's stop confusing the public with terminology in this state. The "Republicans" running the state legislature are not "conservatives" in any way, shape or form. They more resemble elitists with a definite religious tint.
"Conservatives" are a group of people who not only believe in less intrusive government and more personal responsibility, but actually work to achieve these goals in their every action. Frankly, we've seen NOTHING in the current legislature that reflects one iota of those goals.
