@georgetakei I find it kind of amazing that I, along with many others, have watched the demise of the Republican Party play out before our wide-open eyes in slow motion.

For me, it always begins with Newt Gingrich and his "Contract for America". That was the point at which Republicans signed up to put loyalty to Republican leadership above Republican values. And it's been flaming and spectacular and terrifying and we are not through it yet.
