What began as the Reagan era became, by the 1990's, the Gingrich/Norquist/DeLay/Rove coalition. It was a coalition built on deception, as the GOP leaders and their funders and think tankers at places like the Heritage Foundation and the American Enterprise Institute and the propagandists like Norquist (with plenty of aiding, abetting and even active participation from the media) concealed their economic goals, which could best be summed up by Norquist's infamous quip that his goal was to shrink government to the point where conservatives could "drown it in a bathtub.
Americans don't want government to be drowned in a bathtub. They want it to work. And they can be fooled for a while, but when reality smacks them in the face the way Iraq and the economy have since 2005, they stop believing the lies. Bush's public collapse began when he finally stopped concealing his intentions and openly supported privatization of Social Security. Katrina made things worse. Iraq descended in to an open civil war. And a series of financial market crises, collapsing home values, a massive increase in foreclosures, rising unemployment, spikes in the cost of health care and the number of uninsured Americans, losses of pensions, massive and growing disparities of income and wealth, tight credit and now a recession have made it impossible for most Americans who don't vote entirely on conservative social and cultural issues to maintain any trust in the Republican party. Now let's all look back on the Clinton years and bitch!

Newsflash: Clinton gets blowjob and gets impeached.
Newsflash: Bush starts illegal war and kills hundreds of thousands, wiretaps our phones, spies on the internet, repeals habeas corpus, approves of torture, renders the 4th amendment useless and generally fucks the nation to tears, Nothing happens.

Who knows, she's a democrat, so she's probably not gay, or anyway wouldn't take it up in a public bathroom. I'm pretty sure she's made some compromising deals to get to where she is, and Newsflash, I'm not a Pelosi lover. The main reason for that is the fact she took impeachment off the table. They're all in cahoots in some way or another. It's the good old boys/girls club for sure. The only reason I'm a democrat is that to vote for A democrat in the primaries in Nv.. you have to be registered as one. I've been an independent for years. The only republican I've even thought about voting for in 30+ years was Ron Paul, and he didn't have a chance.
