Re: The Republican Party Sucks
I agree with the OP. The Republican Party sucks. The Democratic Party sucks more, but the Republican Party still sucks. Never has a Party proven so well that they can repeatedly snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory like the Republucan Party has. They could not decide on a lunch menu, let alone ...
