Should the GOP be partitioned into 3 separate parts?
That safe "Red Zone" seems to be getting smaller and smaller. And casualties are mounting daily. Lurid tales are coming out about GOP members who've been imprisoned in closets for decades. Dennis Hastert, an entity who is too large to be a man and is now regarded by geographers as a small country, is under siege daily. Jeb Bush can't make it to the airport without coming under attack. The bodies are piling up: Mark Foley, Susan Ralston, Bob Ney, Irving "Scooter" Libby-Liebowitz, Duke Cunningham, Tom DeLay...

Christian Soldiers are being re-summoned for unprecedented third tours to continue their weary work of defending the GOP from gay insurgents. It seems these gay insurgents have had secret cells inside the GOP, and they are finally erupting. (Two men wearing make-up were reportedly seen sneaking around at a fundraiser for Dennis Hastert...) Christian Soldiers' morale is at an all-time low, and they are complaining about the "Back-Door Rapture."

Meanwhile, there is talk about nationalizing GOP's major natural resource, which is... money.

1. Not A Bad Idea
The Republicans could break into three parts:

-liberterians

-social conservatives

- neoconservatives


It's ironic that the party of Wall Street is also the party of God but only in America.

3. Good categories. So, okay, the gay republicans would be in the
libertarian category, I guess, while the "Christian right" republicans would be in the social conservative category... and, let's see...hmmm... it's the neoconservatives that kind of don't fit with anyone. I mean, are there enough people around who actually BELIEVE the neocon line? And if so, shouldn't they be quarantined?
