While it is true that Michele Bachmann is now a former Republican US Congresswoman and not running in the Republican Presidential Primary, she was part of the Republican Party’s leadership until earlier this year, and a former Republican Presidential primary candidate.
What will it take for alleged Republican Party “moderates” to forsake their party and stop making excuses for the inexcusable?
So when I discount the current field of Republicans who have announced their run for office of the President of the U.S. let’s keep in mind the former crop which doesn’t just end with Michele “I am a quack” Bachmann. It is harder and harder for me to take anyone who identifies with this party as a serious candidate.
No matter how liberal the ideas are from progressives like Sen. Elizabeth Warren, there is no comparison to the faith-laced gibberish all Conservatives seem to fall back upon. Bachmann’s comments are not the exception to the rule they are becoming more and more the language of the Republican Party.

What is a tea bagger? I have been hearing that term for a while now. What exactly does it mean?

The party has been commandeered by the lunatic fringe known as the Tea Party. I prefer to refer to them as Teabaggers. So-called moderates continue to support them because of fear. Fear that it would be political suicide to speak against them.

My guess is that the honesty that can be associated with the Democrats through the Clinton family and their foundation is a blessing that will be espoused for the next 2 years of the election cycle. Although associating the Democrats with a current candidate will stretch the bounds of blaming everything on those who have come and gone.
As an aside, the majority American-African police force in Baltimore is being chastised for being a white racist force.

I’m not suggesting that the Democratic Party is virtuous and without issues; some you’ve alluded too but there are many more examples. I’m merely drawing a comparison of the rhetoric and actions many of Republicans. The list of prominent Republicans and their outrageous statements and actions grows far longer each year. The language fromfar left politicians like Bernie Sanders pales not by degrees but exponentially to far right politicians like Ted Cruz; obviously my opinion and one that is increasingly drowned out. There is nothing moderate about the leadership of the Republican Party by modern day or recent past comparisons.
