Republican Leader

When I see a black man or woman in a political office as a Republican; my first reaction is to find out what he had to do for selling his "soul".

Michael Steele is the new leader of the Republicans. But I think that Steele does not need to be concerned about his "soul".

It turns out that Steele might only be a figurehead. The real leader of the Republican Party, the only person with any clout, is in my opinion; that recovering narcotics addict, Rush Limbaugh. .

It could be a gut busting laugh if not for this:

The Republicans say have a plan to get our country out of the Reaganomics death spiral that I believe the Republican's put us in. The only details of that plan appear to be coming from Rush Limbaugh. His plan appeared in ‪Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Journal.

Limbaugh's plan turns out to be mostly massive tax cuts for the ultra wealthy. Do the Republican fat cats really need bigger personal ships to cruise the Mediterranean?

Reaganomics is in short:

• Eliminate manufacturing; don't make any product in the USA

• Force US citizens to buy products manufactured overseas, mostly from China.

The first two are to eliminate that bane of Conservatives; the middle class union worker.

Continuing;

• Give massive tax cuts to the wealthy

• Lower interest rates and implement new “creative” and completely unregulated financial instruments for middle class people to borrow from in order to purchase imported goods.

Those two eventually allowed the wealthy to morph into the spectacularly wealthy.

In my opinion the now secret Republican economic plan will turn out to be a rerun of the “Reagan Voodoo Economics" that caused the economic death spiral we are in.

They call the Republicans the loyal opposition. But just what and who are they loyal too? It does not appear to be the USA.
