Republicans Suck Too

I swear I can't stand either party.

Look at this:

Rejuvinated Conservatives

First of all, the Repubs have been overspending badly themselves, so when they talk about fiscal conservatism, I do NOT believe a word of it.
What have they been doing since the Reagan years really? They spend, spend, spend, and grow the damn government right along with the Dems. Then they get the faithful wound up over abortion, crime, gay rights, and other idiocy in order to divert attention. Sadly, this worked for quite a while, which I admit doesn't exactly show Repub voters to be very bright.
Now it has stopped working, primarily because the Obama/Pelosi/Reid triumviRAT went so overboard with crazy spending and vile socialist schemes and closed door deals that any complacent conservative woke up. The independent voters and the Tea Parties are making it clear that true conservatism is mostly about responsibility and fiscal issues. So the Repub politicians are now banging the drums of smaller government. But their hearts aren't in it.

Second, why are they coming across as so damn happy? It's good that so many people are out of work? It's good that we are sinking into a financial morass that we may never fully recover from?
Oh yeah, it's GREAT! Because the country's troubles will get Republican candidates elected and that's great for the party!
You stinking bastards.
When Dubya was president, the Dems wanted very much for the country to fail so that they could get back into power. The Repubs rightly condemned them for being so selfish and putting their party and desire for power ahead of the well being of the people they are supposedly serving. And now those Repubs are doing exactly the same thing.
So yeah, for a politician, it's a good thing that you are out of work when the opposing party is in power. It's great when you're scared and angry and the economy is tanking. Yessir, that's marvelous!

Screw you dirtbags. Each of you individually. Directly. I say that with malice and hate. A lot.
Yes I am more ticked off at the Dems than the Repubs, but not that much. At least the Dems are doing what they are known for and expected to do. You damn Repubs have been doing the exact opposite.

I have not yet switched from the Republican party to Independent, but I've finally decided to do so. I wanted to stay in the party so that at least I could vote in the primaries and hope for a good candidate to vote for. But when McCain won the primary, it became clear that I was just fooling myself.

I'm glad the Tea Party rejected the Repubs. Steele is not welcome to speak.
Yes he met with representatives of the Tea Party movement, but he didn't get much of anything out of it:

Steele and Tea Party Leaders meet
As a side note, bet you never expected me to link to the Huffington Post huh?

I've heard that the GOP took down their Tea Party web page. Never looked. Hope it's true.
