Two wings of the same bird ..

(Never forget this)



The 103rd and 104th Congress was led by "Republicans." With G.W. Bush at the other end of the whipping post, more damage was done to our national sovereignty through NAFTA and CAFTA than in the history of the "Republican" party.

The New GOP Betrays America

The biblical truth "Hope deferred makes the heart sick" described my state of mind on July 27, 2005. That was when the House Republican leadership stopped the clock on the CAFTA vote because they didn't like the way it was going.

It gets more and more difficult to write about politics. The hope some of us placed in Republicans was misplaced. We had hope they might make a small attempt to lead this nation back to constitutional government: limited government.


Hoping Republicans will be conservative, constitutional or less venal than Democrats, however, is hopeless.

CAFTA vote story

"Twist some Republican arms until they break in a thousand pieces."
That statement by Representative Jim Kolbe (R-Arizona) describes the Republican leadership's rabid determination to get the U.S. House to pass the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA) -- no matter what.
