Yes Joe, a correction is indeed coming. Just like the correction we're enduring right now for the right going too far. Don't know why both sides have to keep pushing to the extreme. The comments of Lindsay Graham is correct; Ronald Reagan couldn't survive in today's GOP. We jammed so-called conservatism down the throats of the Dems and they're now doing it to the Reps and the pendulum swings. Somehow we need to come to the conclusion that none of us are all right or all wrong and reason has to dictate instead of dogma. My family GOP roots date back to Lincoln - I hate what my party has morphed into. It's gone so far that the Dems are actually more reasonable today. Tomorrow the other side will have gone crazy. Enough crazy IMO.

Frankly sir, the "war on capitalism" is coming from fascism in the GOP. Just count your lobbyists. Every single one of them are pushing the agenda of a single entity in order to propel it ahead of their competitors. NEXT, ask yourself why any CEO is worth hundreds of millions in compensation. It's the combined talents of the organization that makes a profit for the company but it's the CEO that knows politicians on a personal basis. Is that capitalism???? Of course not, it's fascism. If the market wasn't totally perverted by government favors, any one of these CEOs would do their job for less than a million a year and we all know that.

Not the constitution party, move to the dems along with socially conservative Hispanics and modify that party. Both the left and the right have merit and we need to be able to use the tools of each side to solve our problems - NOT just one side and reject the other side as evil. The GOP has become little more than the old Dixiecrat party and needs to die in its present form. As Goldwater said it needs to shake off the religious right and it also needs to divorce itself from the corporate welfare types that use their agents in congress to protect them from all the other businesses that still behave like capitalists instead of fascists. Think about that.
Until right-wingers can overcome this extreme worship of authoritarian power, visions of military and police state Utopia, they'll never agree to anything other than a persistent increase of military expenditure as workable. We need to cut the military budget in half immediately. Until the term defense is separated from the concept of offense, nothing will ever improve. (except the treasure hoards of the military industrial complex)
