Republicans
have only themselves to blame
“On
Saturday night, at precisely 9:19 and 30 seconds, my iPhone, my iPad, my
computer and, for all I know, my toaster were informed that Herman Cain had endorsed Newt Gingrich.
The ping-ping of the devices suggested that something momentous had happened —
alerts from both The Post and the New York Times — but in fact it was just
additional evidence that the Republican Party has become a circus: One clown
endorsed another.”
This situation would be highly amusing
if it was happening in some banana republic that had never known representative
government or had social safety nets, good schools, and trustworthy
leaders. Seeing it unfold here is
painful, and is going to become much more painful.
The GOP is bleeding badly, thanks in
large part to idiot candidates like Gingrich and Palin who manufacture dissent
and fracture truth into smaller bites to feed the bottom-feeding teavangelists that
clamor for their groundless attacks upon the media and upon any voter who
actually studies the issues and reads history that doesn’t come from
cartoons.
