Not a lot of posts today from me because I was on the Texas Bus System, otherwise known as Southwest Airlines. The two men in front of me were discussing politics and as my iPod battery died this is what I overheard and let out a 'damn straight' before I could help myself.
"I don't get it. I didn't move...the 'Right' moved. Now, I don't know where I fit in anymore."
My pithy motto is; I want government to stay out of my bedroom and out of my wallet!
Before the Republicans became the new Christocratic NAZI Party, I considered myself one of them (oh my!) At the time, they believed in limited government and balanced budgets. They didn't seem to care much about social issues as long as they got tax-breaks.
My how things have changed. Bush spends like a drunken sailor, social issues like abortion and gay marriage are so much more important than silly issues like hunger, crime or education and we are in a "war" that will never end.
Give me back the GOP of my Daddy! Bring back Goldwater! Now get me a martini.
