Some of the names have changed, but not the anti American ideology they preach. The two debates and their campaign speeches are a sad rerun of their recycled rhetoric. They still offer no plans to the American voters and instead they keep up their personal attacks against President Obama. Their oratory is still abortion, big government, federal spending, who among them is the most conservative, tax cuts for the most wealthy, special interest groups and tax breaks for Corporate America.
Their rhetoric goes back to the Reagan years, but now it is more right wing, hypocritical, actual lies, a disdain for the American voter, a love of the special interest groups and down right anti American. They still evoke Reagan's disdain for big government even though Reagan was the biggest federal spender in history when he left office.
This bunch of republican candidates want to finish the job Reagan started and George W. Bush almost finished, that is bankrupt the federal government. That was obvious when the candidates were silent during their party's desire to shut the government down concerning the debt limit extension.
Their campaign is about the same old failed policies of their party. Lower taxes for corporate America, less regulation and make the middle class pay more. Trickle down economics is still their number one policy agenda that has failed dramatically. What could be more dramatic than the pitiful shape Bush and the republican party left the country in when he left office. Their ignorance on the economy, job creation and balancing the federal budget is played out in their past failures.
It would be a devastating blow if one of those candidates would actually be elected President. Yet, it could happen because President Obama has not shown consistent leadership or called the republicans out for what they are. That is a disappointment to all Americans but Obama is still the best candidate to lead our nation even with his short comings. When the election of 2012 rolls around, hopefully the American voters will have realized that the republican party they put in charge in the U.S. House and the republican party candidates are not fit to lead our country with their anti American ideology.
