   A bit over the top but I won’t disagree.
   They’re cut from the same cloth.

   Wasn’t it the Heritage Foundation that some GOPers in the Senate recently quoted as “independent organization” when they presented some report or study? I always had my doubts about them, but now everything has become crystal-clear, so thank you Mr. DeMint, and lets hope you continue to enforce the purity of the party, because only purity can get you ahead, right?

   DeMint is gonna need a bigger briefcase to carry the amount of money the “Heritage Foundation” uses to buy and bribe the members of Congress!

   Wasn’t the Heritage Foundation the group that said that the Individual Mandate was the right way to go for a National Health Plan?
   Right up until a Democrat implemented it?

    The Heritage Foundation is where the conservative idea of a health insurance mandate came from, as a private sector alternative to socialized medicine. Now that they’ve pretty much killed socialized medicine as an option, they call their own idea “socialized medicine.” One columnist referred to DeMint leading the Heritage Foundation as the perfect move for the first post-thought think tank.

    The Heritage Foundation is also where Justice Clarence Thomas’s wife has worked in her support of conservative issues. A report I just read to confirm this said she made over 650k over a five year period. Some of these issues were reviewed by SCOTUS and Justice Thomas has not recused himself from any of them, despite his wife being paid to defend them by Heritage.
    While the mission statement of HF is noble, and they have pursued issues upon which I agreed, in recent times they have become a lobbyist arm for some of the most conservative members of the Rep party.
    But if ends justify means, then Mr. DeMint has ‘won’ the game, and will recieve the paycheck to prove it.
    Sadly,

    I wonder how long it’s gonna take the righties to suddenly decide that Jim DeMint is a RINO…and good riddance.

    Couple of questions

    []:

    How many Repubs raised a protest when the Japanese Americans were interned during World War II?

    How nany of them raised a protest when Congress voted to pay them COMPENSATION for their internment?

    As for the Nazis. here’s how Hitler himself defined Socialism.
    []
    “Whoever is prepared to make the national cause his own to such an extent that he knows no higher ideal than the welfare of his nation; whoever has understood our great national anthem, Deutschland, Deutschland, über Alles, to mean that nothing in the wide world surpasses in his eyes this Germany, people and land, land and people — that man is a Socialist.”
    []
    Change ‘Deutschland, über Alles’ to, The Pledge of Allegiance and by that definition, the TEA PARTY is Socialist
