Finally!! Thank you Herbaholic, this article expresses what I've been saying all along, that the Republican party is giong straight to hell. The current party has absolutely nothing to do with the great republican presidents of old. Believe you me, if Bush was president instead of Lincoln, slavery would still be in full swing (Bush's policy of pandering to rich people proves this quite nicely).

With the current party, we are returning to an age of blind ideology and ultra right wing government, the kind of which hasn't been seen since WW2 (in North America and Europe, at least).

Hopefully, Americans will wake up and ralize what's happening sooner rather than later, and let's all hope that the next four years won't be too bad.... (unlikely as that is....)
