A Cautionary Tale - Update

This article sums up the current state of American politics pretty nicely. The current state of the Republican Party is a cautionary tale as to what happens when a party turns itself over to Karl Rovian type strategists for eight years.

Lying about everything and demonizing anyone who opposes or disagrees with you isn't a very good strategy for staying in touch with reality.

UPDATE: The aforementioned references to "lying" and "demonizing" are directed to the National Leaders of the Republican Party. It goes without saying - but I'll say it anyway to avoid being misunderstood - that the vast majority of Republicans, politicians and otherwise, are sane, moral, and perfectly nice people - these are the one's suffering the "whiplash" described by the article's author.
