I don't normally listen to rush but caught the very beginning of his show yesterday and he mentioned this right off the bat (referencing Paul bringing up the Iranian revolution as response to CIA orchestrating the overthrow to try to stop nationalization of Oil fields.).

the GOP is a lost cause with idiot neo-cons controlling the stupid base they are full of....I swear most GOP are incapable of thinking for themselves critically (no wonder right wing radio is so popular).

False Paradigm of Political Parties / Left-Right Wing



The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to the doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can "throw the rascals out" at any election without leading to any profound or extreme shifts in policy. Then it should be possible to replace it, every four years if necessary, by the other party, which will be none of these things but will still pursue, with new vigor, approximately the same basic policies.
