"I have watched the Republicans like a hawk for 50 years and I just never see them do anything " Did you see them give us the EPA, or was there too much smog in the air? If there was, their acid rain and ozone laws might have cleared it enuf. Go back and look again. If you squint, you might make out a sign that says "Free drugs for seniors, courtesy of GHWB". Pay no attention to the one next to it saying, "koan is a political bigot".

I think Bush coined the phrase "trickle down" but he was wrong. It's trickling up. Everything they do is about taking money from the middle class and the unborn and giving it to the rich. Republicans don't brag about Reagan balancing the budget because they can't and that was his issue. So they're left lying about him saying one sentence and causing the Soviet Union to collapse. While your time watching republicans is most likely significantly longer than mine I agree with your conclusion, in that I'd be hard-pressed to mention one time when they were right. What's amazing is their ability to change the subject. We didn't talk about why Bush lied about WMD or why he stayed in the war after he lied, they told us to "support the troops." They cut taxes and create massive debt and then blame "spending" for the deficits that they just created even though they never raise taxes to pay for their spending. The mindlessness reduces us whenever they speak.
