The Republican Party is a party of failure simply because it lacks direction, a constructive political program and associates itself with shameless populists and religious nut jobs who dream of imposing a Christian version of Sharia Law in the US.
Oh good. Another extremist utilizing hyperbole to try and make their point. I'll take you seriously when you can make a cogent argument that does not employ exaggeration and falsehoods. Best of luck to you.

Glad you admit that you want government to raise people from cradle to grave. How's that been working out or do we need another bubble caused by government to prove how inept they are?

It works very well in Canada, Australia, France or UK. It doesn't work for us cause we never done it the way other countries do.

It cant work here, and it is very clearly not working in those nations either, they are running massive debts they will not be able to pay back and promoting a welfare culture that has some very serious consequences.

At least you are honest about your intent, something most leftist never are..

Just like families, the government has to learn to live within its means. To do otherwise is foolish and irresponsible.

The republicans have done plenty in the way of drafting legislation to help our domestic manufacturing sector. Of course, all the lefties can talk about is how Obama bailed out his union buddies

It's working everywhere and these countries have less debt than we do. You're grossly misinformed.
