I wrote a commentary under the above title Jan 30, 2008. That is over 3 years ago and the republican party in congress and their leaders are showing how truly ugly and UnAmerican their ideology really is in the current debt ceiling debate. The party that is most responsible for the national debt being a problem wants the congress and the American people to follow their advise to finish the job they started to bankrupt the country.
The tea party is showing their hand in all of this with their extreme agenda but make no mistake, there is no difference between the tea party and the republican party. They are one and the same and that is why the republican party supported the tea party candidates with money in the last congressional election.
Voters who supported the republican party are receiving what they asked for. They should not be surprised by the damage being done to the country and have no right to be ignorant concerning the republican party's true ideology. I know many of them are complaining and saying that is not what they voted for but the republicans have a past history and the voters knew how conservatism as practiced by today's republicans is truly an ugly and unAmerican ideology. That says it all.
