Scarecrow over at FireDogLake makes some really pertinent comments about the modern Republican party. Mostly he reviews the apparently cogent comments of Paul Krugman, comments that remain hidden behind the New York Times firewall (defeated here) but in doing so he says something revealing about the Republican party of George W. Bush.
Bush is no longer the aberration, but rather the model for most of the current crop of Republican Presidential candidates.That explains why Fox News is doing everything it can to destroy Ron Paul, the one Republican candidate who reflects the views of traditional, thoughtful Republicans as opposed to the other nine who all seem to be bloodthirsty, thuggish imperialists.
Watch this from Fox News. Are they fair and balanced? I report, you decide.
