Republicans Bring The Crazy

I just read an article in my local paper about a group of people who gathered to protest President Obama's health care plan. Thank Jeebus! It's good to know there are people to speak for the lowly, downtrodden insurance companies; I mean, who, other than the million dollar lobbyists that own the Republican opposition (and a few "Blue Dog" Democrats) will stand and defend the good and honorable billion dollar health care industry? Which leads me to wonder, if there is any way we can talk the Republican party into having their national convention three years early. The entertainment value of such a thing would be immeasurable. Just the "birthers" alone would be worth the price of admission to that freak show; and the "tea-baggers", who protest against tax increases on the lowly, downtrodden millionaires and billionaires. It's as if the Republicans said, "You think the loony left fringe element of the Democratic party (or as they like to say in their own precious, corny manner, Democrat party) were crazy in the last 10 years?" "Yeah?" "You wanna get nuts?" "Let's get nuts!" "Move aside hippies, let the pros show you how it's done!"
