I saw this post from Esmeralda on LP (#38)....
"I have been listening to Rush since 91 and he has always mentioned the fact that the country club Republicans hated the Reagan Republicans, they were embarrassed by them actually. The country clubbers could not win their way out of a paperbag. Does anyone remember Christy Whitman from NJ, she wrote a book about taking her party back, this is exactly what she wanted. A very close relative of mine is privvy to the GOP in DC, the future plans for the Party are not anything close to a conservative platform, you would not recognize it." http://www.libertypost.org/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=214692&Disp=47#C47
....and it rang a bell. I searched through my old political ephemera and came up with a flyer from 1996 announcing a "Picnic In The Park" in Arlington (TX) for Texas Republican Candidate For Governor George W. Bush & N.J. Governor Christine Todd Whitman.
If that doesn't beat all. It can't be a coincidence that Bush has destroyed the Republican Party and driven it towards the present GOP envisioned by Christine Whitman that Esmeralda referenced above. Perhaps that has been his plan since 1996 or earlier?? I'll leave it to some of you to supply further details, perhaps some of you have Whitman's book in your collection??

Other stuff from my political ephemera:
From the Republican Party of Texas Platform, June, 1992:
"Immigration - The Republican Party of Texas supports freezing current immigration quotas and enforcing existing immigration laws, including employer sanctions, and to reclaim control of our international borders. We are opposed to the automatic granting of citizenship to children born to non-U.S. citizens who are on U.S. soil in violation of immigration laws.
We strongly urge Congress to enact whatever legislation is needed to authorize law enforcement officers at all levels of government to detain illegal aliens until they can be picked up by or delivered to the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service for deportation fo their native countries."
I'm reading the Republican Party of Texas Platforms from 1992 and 1994 and comparing that with today's Republican Party and I'm wondering what the hell happened?? It's like two different political parties...

I wonder what decade the concept really began to be employed in earnest...the RINOfication handover by center/lefties to the commie fascists. Effing traitors!

"Commie Fascists"? Isn't that like "Soul Food Klan Brothers" or "Canine Felines"? It doesn't make sense!
Then again, it does seem like one of the hallmarks of crumbling empires is the spontaneous generation of incomprehensible ideologies, like "Nazi Low Riders", "Commie Fascists", "Christians".....

National Socialism and Communism both end up with a dick-ta-torial tyrant killing people...there are shades but in the end they're the same amount of sh!t.

You're correct and not out of line to combine Commies and Nazis. They're both totalitarian (fascist) which was your point, just as are DemoFlaps and RepubliCrats.

It's not any more silly than "compasionate conservative" or "principled hardline liberal."
Vote Commie Fascist today! All the poverty and expansionism of Communism with the crushing state powers of Fascism. What a 2 for one deal. At least the C/F ticket is honest about what they offer.
