Here's what happened to your party

An excellent article.

The following excerpt from it hits the nail square on the head.

As Lew Rockwell trenchantly put it, the GOP is the party of what he calls "red-state fascism" – an openly authoritarian and militaristic tendency in American politics promoted by neoconservative intellectuals and their political camp followers, which has led the Republican party to its present parlous state. As has been pointed out by Jacob Heilbrunn in his recent excellent book, the neocons came over from the far left and penetrated the American Right in a conscious "entrist" effort, much as a parasite or a virus invades and takes over its host. In the end, if left unchecked, the parasite kills the host, leaving only the hollowed-out husk.


Good riddance, I say.

If John McCain is a Republican,... I ain't.
