Considering the fact that the GOP, together with Reagan, Bush I, and Bush II's implementation of "trickle down" (up) economic combined with "Deregulation" has done more to wound the American way of life, the American Economy, and the Working and Middle Classes than any terrorist group could ever dream of accomplishing.
To understand how much of an abject failure the GOP's economic theories were, all one has to do is review our nations economic history since the 1950. Look at GNP, Deficit formation, Tax rates, Distribution of wealth to name a few since that date.
Consider the fact that in 1969 the top 2% owned only 8% of the total wealth of this Nation. The remaining 98% owned the remaining 92% of everything. The middle class was a thriving engine that drove our economy.
Then track the economic indicators for each Administration. See for yourself what has happened to America as a result of failed GOP policies: job creation, Deficit creation,and the redistribution of wealth to the nonperforming "job Creators" as well as the decline of the Middle Class as this nation suffered the consequences of the GOP's tax and wealth creation policies for the top 2%, and Corporate America. Even today, Corporate America is rewarded for exporting jobs and entire production facilities overseas with tax credits and deductions. How about comparing just job creation between GOP Administrations, and Democratic Administrations? The GOP has created less than half as many new jobs as the Democrats. All the GOP's Failed Polices have done is redistribute America's wealth from the 98% to the top 2%, as they now own over 48% of everything, thanks to those same failed policies. No job creation from that group, just investments in financial sectors creating wealth for that group.
You feel sorry for Liberals? You should feel sorry for the Republicans who continue to faithfully vote GOP who are living in the Red States, you know, the ones with the poor levels of education, the poor or nonexistent health care, those who are part of the GOP and Romney's hated 47%, who depend on the very same "safety nets" which you and the GOP want to severely cut to fund enable more "tax cuts for job creators".
The only plan the GOP has for America is for it to gain more political power, and control, turning America into an Oligarchy, all political power in the hands of the few, the rich, and Corporate America. You are a member of a Failed Political Party, one who represents a only small portion of the population of this nation, one with no plan, no answers, except to fool the American People into giving them a 4th chance to prove its failed economic policies still do not work. The Bush II Economic Meltdown of 2007/08 was enough proof for most people. That was the unrestricted implementation of GOP economic polices in all their power and glory. We all saw what that got us.

Just for questions sake, who do you think "deregulated" both energy and wall street almost at the same time? I'll give you a hint, he's also the one who also started the war w/ Binladan in the first place, and his wife who is owned by elitists is a joke too. Nope not Bush, go back one.
