Perfectly Republican In Conception

There is a lot of grousing going on about the Republican nominees for President. This one is wrong on this issue. That one is wrong on that issue. Gerard Vanderleun has a post up on the subject with lots of interesting comments. However, with each and every one of the remaining major Republican candidates there is a consolation prize.

The consolation prize: Republican candidates all favor price supports for criminals and terrorists AKA the Drug War.

It is perfectly Republican in conception. Aid your enemies, screw your friends.

I've never been disappointed by Gerard. Until today.

His rant misses the key points of conservative objections. See comments by Quinn at 1:48 pm for a nice summary.

I have to wonder what his real motives were for missing the essence of the issues so completely. Creating his own "instalanch" as one commenter suggested? I see him chuckling as his site meter soars.

He got the tone right and the facts wrong.

I can't tell who stands for what any more. I think they like it that way.

If you hold it firmly in your mind that they are all crooks it eases the pain some.
