FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO LIVE IN A STATE WITH A REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR!


I WROTE THIS FOR MY STATE OF MAINE BUT THOUGHT IT WORTH EXPANDING:
YOU KNOW POLITICS IS A WONDERFULL SUBJECT! IT BRINGS THE TRUTH OUT IN THE STRANGEST MANNER! OF COURSE I'M LEFT HANDED SO THAT GIVES ME 7 IQ POINTS OVER THE RIGHT COMING OUT OF THE BIRTH CANAL!(PUN INTENDED)
Hearing so much chatter about “change” in the Republican Party, the innocent voter might believe that the Republicans had learned important lessons from their stinging electoral defeat. On closer examination, however, the likelihood of real change appears nil, because the party’s leaders and thinkers can cite so many excuses to remain utterly the same.

At the Republican Governors Association conf...erence last week, for instance, the favored explanation for the voting public’s emphatic rejection of Mitt Romney had nothing to do with issues or ideology, but only with more effective Democratic Party organizing and communicating. According to Wade Goodwyn, the National Public Radio reporter who covered the GOP governors’ meeting, their post-election mood was not one of shock, but complacency.

hmm I'm sure our governor was on the "RIGHT SIDE"
PUN INTENDED!
