Hurricane Turns and Political Parties

Being a Floridian interested in politics and watching yet another storm approach my State I couldn’t miss the similarities between Wilma and the political hurricane that has these many years been building in Washington. As Wilma churns its way through the Caribbean in search of a place to strike and deliver its devastation, the Republican political hurricane churns its way through Washington in search its place to strike. I believe that as sure as Wilma will find a strike zone after making a dramatic right turn the political hurricane that is the Republican Party has already found a strike zone in the United States after a dramatic right turn. In politics the eye of the Political Hurricane is more often than not the White House. Today that is once again true. What we have seen unfolding in the Plame Gate investigation is simply the beginning of the devastation of a perfect storm of Republican hunger for power, decadence and greed. Over the years we have watched as the Party of Jefferson, has gone from being the party of the people to being the party of the power hungry aristocrats and the uber-wealthy. The lengths that the Republican Party and this White House will go to are exemplified by the White House Iraq Group (WHIG) that was formed to drag this nation to war. For any thinking American to look at the facts of Plame Gate as they have unfolded before us and not to see that the entire affair was single mindedly formed and executed by this administration from the President and Vice President down to their Rovian minions that executed the plan then they are either incredibly stupid or deaf and blind. The WHIG was formed specifically to twist the facts (lie) and make an overwhelmingly convincing case to take this nation to war. They obviously had no qualms what so ever as was demonstrated by their outing a CIA agent and sliming a dedicated veteran Diplomat in doing their assigned tasks. When you take a hard look at the White House staff it is obvious that it is run with an iron fist. Loyalty to Bush and Party above all, to include the nation, is obviously their motto. Bush and his brain (Rove) are joined at the hip as are Cheney and his sidekick Scooter. To think that these two men (Rove and Libby) could do anything of this magnitude in such an environment without Bush and or Cheney’s knowledge would to me be simply ridiculous. These of course are simply my thoughts on this but I do hope that within the next week Mr. Fitzgerald comes out with indictments that will support my thoughts and confirm this for the nation.
To take just one more moment and expand a little on one of my earlier remarks and that is that the Republican Party has made an extreme right turn. Our nation was built on a system of checks and balances but unfortunately we have allowed and elected the Republican Party into every nook, crack, and cranny of our government and they are now moving even the Judicial Branch farther to the right. I believe that much of our hope of steering the nation back into the mainstream hangs on Mr. Fitzgerald. This administration is imploding as a result of its own corruption and our only hope is that they be held accountable for their actions and that through the next election cycle the American people bring sanity and the center back to our government.

Those are The Sergeant Majors thoughts on that.
