Yes of course. Pay no attention whatsoever to what the Democrats are doing. Just keep repeating the mantra “Republicans are evil. It’s all their fault.” Just a year ago, decent was the highest form of patriotism.

(“credibility accept from” s/b “credibility except from”)

And BTW, excellent line:

“The more platitudes we get the more we feel like you’re feeding plastic fruit to the starving public.”

Excellent editorial.

“Stop using the fear card . . .” Yes, stop it. It’s pathetic and destructive.

Republicans are giving greedy, hate filled, conspiracy theorists a platform through press conferences.

That’s not going to buy any credibility accept from the already committed choir of angry, paranoid bigots.

I am a democrat and I wish the GOP would get it’s act together so the opposition party isn’t worthless. If the GOP doesn’t have the legitimacy to curb Democrat excesses or offer an alternative policy that isn’t a complete mess, then we are all headed to Hell in a handbasket.

Thanks for a great column, Aaron! I’m 67, and I couldn’t agree with you more.
