The Republican Caucus and their stooges

I think I fist learned about the caucus system from a Three Stooges Movie. The three were picked by some crooks to caucus for a crooked politician and the stooges come back to a motel room realizing “It’s a good thing we found out that guy was a crook and now we’re supporting the other guy.”
Politics haven’t changed much and I went to the Republican caucus this morning. Yes, I’m registered as a Republican because I originally wanted to spy on the party. They no longer send things to me, but I still haven’t changed my registration. That’s because the Democrats have jettisoned their support for the moderate left to win over middle class rednecks. For the last 15 years we’ve had a one party system with two factions with different labels.
I can still remember the stooges, where Mo said “come on boys, lets caucus caucus caucus!”
Which sounded a lot more intelligent than all the clap trap I had to listen to at the Republican caucus. “As Ronald Reagan said” ….Applause! “Our country is still the best hope for the rest of the world.”….”Our president has kept us safe by sending troops to stop the war on terror while the Democrats have never done anything about it.”
The worst part came when the introduced our own US Representative Todd Tiahrt. Listening to that man makes my skin crawl like a person who has a bad case of arachnophobia and is covered with spiders. He continued to spew that ridiculous crap that he gets from the Republican Party, as the man has never had an original idea in his life.
He still claims that the US worker needs to be more competitive in the new global market and as other Republicans have said, it all amounts to tax cuts, so the American worker can compete with wages abroad. Once again, I’d like to know how a US worker can survive on $2 an hour or a $20 a week salary, which are the type of wages we have to compete with?
The whole event was nauseating. I don’t care who wins. I voted for Ron Paul and if he becomes president, I have a lot of Crow to eat.

I spend the rest of my day getting over being nauseous
