I hope you're patient, cause you're in for a long wait.

For me, the party labels are of secondary consideration at best. I'll give substantially more weight to an individual's actions and words. Interestingly, whenever I notice an effort to lower the taxes on the rich, say our current estate tax system, the people trying to make it happen identify themselves as republicans.

Republican credo:* "...government by the <strike>people</strike> rich, for the <strike>people</strike> rich, by the <strike>people </strike> rich, plus anybody we can trick into doing our work for us..."

* edited for clarity

I have more, but the subject sickens me too much to continue now.
