4. Republican brand loyalty is killing democracy. GOP marketing plan worked.
Edited on Mon Mar-13-06 02:33 PM by MissMarple
A thread on brand loyalty was posted the other day. I think it makes a certain sense. Many people so closely identify with their party (brand name) that they simply can't see the trees for the forest. They still think the forest is Republican, but instead the many of the individual trees have been replaced by an alien plant species.

When will the every day Republicans begin to realize that their party has been high jacked and is driving the country over a cliff into totalitarian chaos?

The Fourth Amendment:

"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

What part of the fourth amendment don't they understand? Why do they think warrantless searches are fine for George&Co to authorize? Is it OK for George to flout Constitutional law, but not OK for Clinton to say he hadn't had sex with an unmarried woman? How on earth do they reconcile that kind of thinking?
