The republicans are definitely a party of "values".
How else could you explain dirt poor people in Oklahoma, Alabama, Mississippi, etc. voting for them. Poor people don't care about capital gains tax rates, heavy equipment deductions, alternative minimum tax, etc.
Somehow, the republicans incorporated christianity into their platform and sucked in poor people to vote against their own economic interests. I vote republican, but that's b/c I want all my deductions to minimize my tax burden.
What got my goat is the hypocrites not reigning in the NSA last week after they wolfed all that [bleep] about shrinking the government and following the constitution.
Both parties just suck and are all about more and bigger government.
