One of the more perplexing things about our wonderful country is that any fat, undisciplined, under-educated, morally-immune thug has the right to vote, to buy a gun, to own a dog, to become a parent, and to make a living.  If they have the gift of gab, that thug can be promoted to media thug.  If they can use simplistic sound-bites, instead of a nuanced discussion, to demonize anybody who disagrees with them, then they can become a fabulously wealthy media thug.

I was appalled to hear a fabulously wealthy media thug say the new Republican mandate was not to govern but simply to destroy the President!

Whatever happened to the Republican Party of Ronald Reagan?  He was so strongly opposed to greater government involvement in our lives.  He described America as a “shining city on the hill.”  But, I don’t recall him ever demonizing anybody.  He raised the bar, the standard by which politics would be conducted.  Today, Reaganites are derisively dismissed as mere “country club Republicans.”

If WWJD means What Would Jesus Do, then WWRS means What Would Ronnie Say . . . especially about his standards being lowered so shamefully?
