With the Republican party roaming the wilderness, and Obama "changing" nothing, is it time to vote 3rd Party?

The poor mislead righties take the path of least resistance. Which is easier ... denying a problem exists despite the evidence or negotiating elements that address the problem? 95% of the scientific community confirms climate change and knows it's accelerated.

Who is one going to listen to ... the keyboards in this forum or the scholars that study this topic for a living? Anyone have any idea why there is no science adviser in the president's cabinet?

Bobby Jindal, widely considered one of the rising stars in the GOP" False. He is NOT considered to be one of the rising stars in the GOP. You made that up.

"recently addressed a GOP convention where he warned Republicans they must "stop being the party of stupid." This is exactly what he was talking about" No. Your definition is that he was saying that the Republican party should move to the left, but that isnt what he meant.

_____________________________ Today’s conservatism is completely wrapped up in solving the hideous mess that is the federal budget, the burgeoning deficits, the mammoth federal debt, the shortfall in our entitlement programs…even as we invent new entitlement programs. We seem to have an obsession with government bookkeeping. This is a rigged game, and it is the wrong game for us to play… We think if we can just unite behind a proposal to cut the deficit and debt…if we can just put together a spreadsheet and a power point and a TV ad….

All will be well… By obsessing with zeroes on the budget spreadsheet, we send a not-so-subtle signal that the focus of our country is on the phony economy of Washington – instead of the real economy out here in Charlotte, and Shreveport, and Cheyenne… We also must face one more cold hard fact – Washington is so dysfunctional that any budget proposal based on fiscal sanity will be deemed ‘not-serious’ by the media, it will fail in the Senate, and it won’t even make it to the President’s desk where it would be vetoed anyway… If we created American government today, we would not dream of taking money out of people’s pockets, sending it all the way to Washington, handing it over to politicians and bureaucrats to staple thousands of pages of artificial and political instructions to it, then wear that money out by grinding it through the engine of bureaucratic friction…and then sending what’s left of it back to the states, where it all started, in order to grow the American economy… We believe in planting the seeds of growth in the fertile soil of your economy, where you live, where you work, invest, and dream, not in the barren concrete of Washington. If it’s worth doing, block grant it to the states. http://hotair.com/archives/2013/01/25/ji...

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
