All democracies needs at least two responsible sane parties in order to function effectively. But the GOP seems to fit this description less and less each day.

The most “radical” thing done by the Dems was Obamacare, a watered down version of the health care systems that have existed for decades in nearly the entire Western world (from Canada to Australia to most of Europe and Japan, which has the longest life expectancy in the world and has had universal coverage for 50 years.)

On the other hand, the GOP comes out with one proposal after the next that exist virtually nowhere else in the West, and actually would move us backward to a more primitive time in America. See Sen. Blunt’s proposed rule on contraception coverage, which would allow ALL employers to refuse coverage of ANY procedure they found morally objectionable. Talk about getting between you and your Doctor! Then of course there’s the subject of this thread, which is a procedure “just like sex” except that there’s no physical attraction between two people, no consensuality, no penis involved and is mandated by the state.

I don’t see how the GOP plans to appeal to a broad cross section of Americans. Their strength is with religious white married conservatives (still a huge group, though shrinking). They seem to want to alienate everyone else.
