Liars, Cheats and Yahoos

Sorry to keep slamming the Republican party, but their brand is basically characterized these days by obfuscation, fraud and stupidity.

For lies, there's nothing more pungent than the lethal canard they're telling seniors about healthcare reform, that it will somehow lead to the government going door-to-door asking the elderly how they'd like to die.

For cheating, there's the Tea Party organizers creating obstructionist protests to try and stifle healthcare and clean energy reform and falsely inflate their numbers, as well as forged letters belying the climate change crisis.

And for yahoos, there's the birther movement, so white, so Southern, so Republican in nature. From the folks that brought you slavery.

Here's Jon Stewart's take:

Beware this party: no reason to negotiate with it in Congress anymore. Sorry.

Not our fault.

I think that in order to reflect the changes that have turned them into what they are now, the Repub party should change its name.

Since the name "Know-Nothing Party" is already taken, I suggest "The Hillbilly Party."
