Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the Republican Party, which brags about pushing a message of "fear," "extreme negative feelings toward...Administration," and "visceral" "reactionary" tendencies of donors. They also mock their donors, calling them "ego driven" and easily swayed by "tchotchkes!" Oh yeah, and this is not a parody, they also say that when you don't have the White House or Congress, what you can "sell" is the message, "save the country from trending toward Socialism."
In the end, what boggles my mind is that this is actually a major political party in this country, not just a bunch of fringe wackos like the John Birch Society. Of course, the John Birch Society actually sponsored the Conservative Political Action Committee conference a few weeks ago, so who knows...
