You have to remember that Adolf Hitler was elected in a democratic Germany. I'm not comparing him to Adolf Hitler. What I'm saying is there is the potential."

What is wrong with the Republican right wing? How can people like Broun get elected?

This is why the South is all the GOP has left.

Pathetic.

Don't judge so harshly. It is the natural order of things, death is the catalyst for new life. They'll emerge, repackaged, with a case of amnesia that will make us all wonder "who were those guys?" running the country for the period from 2000-2006 because the new Republicans will claim it wasn't them. It was the "old Republicans", not really Republicans at all actually. Watch, in five years, they will claim the Bush administration was a democratic administration.
