Re: Where's the GOP

Tut, tut, Ezra. It is not dishonest and deceitful per se to step back and let another political party shoot itself in the head. Each political season is different, and quietly permitting the political suicide of the opposition is one possible approach among many. The only relevant question is whether these are times that dictate such a strategy.

I am saying that this is not one of those times. The extreme over-reaching by the current Democrat Administration and Congress this past year has stirred up political winds that will, undoubtedly, push many Democrats out of office, even if the Republicans stand pat. But such winds as I see in America today can do more than blow against the Democrats; it can also accelerate a Republican positive agenda item: the reform of our current Healthcare system into a more competitive, lower-cost, freedom enhancing part of our economy.

All it will take are Captains of the Republican ships who are willing to unfurl the sails and catch this timely wind.

Which brings up the question: are our Captains Courageous or Queegs? We will soon know.
