Why I’m not a Republican anymore

Here’s to Devvy Kidd’s WND Column today, who managed to summarize the conclusions I came to a few years ago:

If you belong to the Democratic Party, I urge you to take the time to study the platform of your party and compare them to the goals of the communists. They are one and the same, although this will bring shrieks from the likes of Marxist Hillary Clinton, it is the raw truth.

If it will make Democrats feel any better, they need only look at the Republican-controlled Congress since 1994 to see that the official agenda of the GOP – enforced through their voting record on key issues over the years – to see that they have also fallen in lockstep with virtually every communist goal. Don't think so? Look how many Republicans in Congress support and have voted for legislation that is a priority for communist domination. Do the research.

Republican is no longer a description of the type of government advocated, but a label for a certain branch of the communist party in America. Pity.

GW was launched into office running as a conservative. OK compassionate conservative. But his rule as emperor president has been significantly more liberal/communistic that the conservative ideals he advocated in his campaign. Consider the rabid (yes, like a mad dog) increases in spending. The appointment of moderate and mediocre cabinet members. His liberty assaulting advocacy of the Patriot Act. The “education reform” that was supposedly in NO Child Left Behind act, which only re-enforced the existing educational bureaucracy. (Here’s a hint. If you let Teddy Kennedy write a bill to right any wrong, you can be that it’s bound to make things worse. And remember that Teddy DID write that bill.) His support of liberal Republicans over conservatives in primaries. His inability to find ANYTHING wrong with the campaign finance reform act; that will likely cause blogs like this to be subject to speech restrictions. I could go on, but why?

His only response to this seems to be TRUST ME. I wish I could. But the truth is that I can only trust him to act like most any other communist that would inhabit that office. You might think that with Republicans holding both houses of congress that there might be ONE conservative freedom promoting act that was passed during his tenure. I’m still waiting.
