How can you defend the Republicans with those silly questions?

But I'll answer your questions: You are not looking at the big picture of Republican ideology i.e. to get rid of government and supplant it with private industry owned by the rich! and worsening income inequality.

Ike started the interstate hwy for military reasons and the Democrats did not oppose it. He also gave us Nixon and didn't crush Mccarthy, or confront the right wing ideology.

Nixon sabotaged the Viet Nam war talks which caused the war to go on for years and millions of people were hurt or killed. And the liberals had more to do with the environment than Nixon ever did!

Shrub started two stupid wars and cut taxes on the rich and almost brought the world economic system down. He was horrible and even medicare part D was a scam in that he did not allow medicare to negotiate drug prices or allow people to get their drugs from Canada.

And he tried to privatize social security Bush was horrible how can you defend him??

And we liberal Democrats got rid of LBJ. The Republicans would never have done that!!

Hillary and Kerry voted for that war because they knew the horrible Republicans would go after then if they didn't, remembering Wayne Morse and Earnest Gruening!!

"I know the history of politics going back 100 years and the Republicans have been on the wrong side of it without pause and the Democrats on the right side" Was Ike on the wrong side when he started the interstate highway system, IGY, and the space race? Was Nixon on the wrong side when he started the EPA and went to China? Was Shrub on the wrong side with Medicare D? Was LBJ on the right side in Nam? Were Hillary and Kerry on the right side in Iraq?
