Post-Election Thoughts--cont.

I was once a registered Republican, but that was several decades ago. I'm registered as an Independent Voter now.

I've read several articles recently in which some Republicans see Gov. Palin as the one to revitalize the Republican Party because of her strong anti-abortion, anti-gay marriage, and pro Christian religious values.

They weren't concerned about her ideas regarding

1. the resolution of the two wars now going on,
2. the economic crisis facing us,
3. the US's deteriorating relationships with what used to be friendly or at least neutral nations,
4. the need to reduce our dependence upon oil for energy,
5. the environmental crisis,
6. and a host of other problems.


I guess I won't be rejoining the Republican Party anytime soon.

    Those are some of the reasons why I am sick and tired of the Republican party.

    This is from one of my favorite comedy radio shows, The Ron & Fez Show on XM Radio, but Ron hits it pretty much on the head.

  2. Scott,

    As I mentioned, I'm not rushing down to the Clerk's office to register as a Republican either.

  3. Honestly, the only reason I stay registered as a Republican is so I can vote in all of the primaries.
