Let me 'splain it to you Tweety.
From time to time Tweety feels compelled
to tell the viewers that all Republicans
are not rich. He further explains his own
parents were not rich, rather they were
working middle class. Every now and then
it seems to get to him that many call the
Republican Party the Party of the Rich and
Big Business.

The Republican Party has changed over the
years. They have purged from office any
living Rockefeller Republican( Liberal Republicans)
and find me a Moderate Republican--maybe
Snowe and the other Female Senator from
New England. You get the picture there are
only Conservatives and TeaParty(ULTRA Conservativws)

Go to their voting records. These Republicans
votes help Business esp. Big Business
and rarely vote for anything that would
financially benefit their working class base.
God Guns Gays and Abortion yes but financially
no.

This why they oppose Health Care. Helps
Middle Class and it makes the Rich Angry.
Whose interests are they looking out for???

Yes Tweety, no matter how you dice it
the Republican Party is the Party of Big
Business and the Rich.

In years past when there were Liberal Republicans and Moderate Republicans
they did work to help all classes. Your
father's and some in my own family's Republican
Party no longer esists.

1. It's not your father's Democratic Party either...
This is now the Corporate Democratic Party - time to change that.

2. K&R. The Clintons have replaced that part of the Republican Party.

I long for the days of even somewhat sane political competition.

3. This is what I try to explain to some die hard
Republicans who are Republican because their Momma and Daddy were back in the day. It's a whole new ball of wax now, kids.
