And THIS is perhaps one of the single biggest problems with the USA

"Bipartisanship ought to consist of Democrats coming to the Republican point of view."
—Senatorial candidate Richard Mourdock, winner of the Indiana GOP primary

I remember when the US invaded Iraq after 9/11 and everyone started screaming when people criticized Bush or questioned anything the government was doing "to keep us safe". We used to have conservative Republicans, moderate Republicans, and more liberal Republicans. Now it's all just hard-core ultraconservative Republicans. And they'd be insanely happy if the DNC joined the RNC, and the USA would fall in to a new dark age and drag a lot of the world down with it.

Idiots, all of 'em.

Well, he's certainly in line with mainstream Republicanism at this point in history. That virulent strain of conservatism has no match in liberalism, that's for sure.
