re: #295 Killgore Trout

In other words, you enjoy being a destructive force and contributing to the decline of a political party without encouraging anything positive in its place. If you are actually a moderate, you should understand the importance of two healthy parties, run by grownups, to maintain our system of government. A permanent majority of EITHER party is a bad thing. The clash of ideas is necessary for the system to function. As it stands now, I hope you enjoy a weak defense, threats from abroad, the socialization of major industries, high taxes, and intrusive social policies, because that’s what you’re going to get if the GOP doesn’t rebuild a credible, center-right party.
