Republican for a Reason? HAH!

Listening to NPR this morning, I heard an interview with RNC Chairman, Mike Duncan, about the reformation of the Republican Party. According to the interview, a web site has been created to take suggestions from the average republican. republicanforareason.com
When read letters from the web site about how the democrats are better at matters of economical import, the republican chairman simply said the equivalent of “nu-uh!” The letter writer said that they need to stop this trickle-down economic support. Duncan thinks that the only issue is the perception people have since republicans were in charge during the economic downturn. He doesn’t concede the fact that republicans played a major role in causing the economic downturn. I shouldn’t be surprised by that.
Another suggestion posed on the web site was that the Republican Party needs to distance itself from the Religious Right. He danced very lightly around this issue even though Steve Inskeep pressures him on the issue. It’s pretty funny. Duncan knows that the biggest supporter of the Republican Party is the Religious Right and he had damned sure not upset them. The Religious Right is a hate group, in my opinion. The religious center and religious left contains all the sanity, leaving none for the RR.
