Four Design Firms Take on Rebranding the GOP

Just like the Republitards to have a companywho can't even spell GOVERNMENT trying to save their sinking ship. Try, try, try as you will....the result will be the same.....Fascist White Supremicist Religiious Fanatics and Megalomaniacs in a newer, shinier package of deception.

The first word that comes to mind for Republican is Resign.

But here we go again.

The real problem with the GOP is that it is all image and no substance. They select leaders based on image. Bush was an empty suit and so is Sarah Palin, at least mentally. But, they look good, so they select them to run the country with the intention that guys like Cheney will pull the real strings behind the scenes - sort of a bait and switch scam.

They have an awesome propaganda machine that can pump up the Evangelicals and the rednecks on gay, abortion and family values issues - but once elected the big boys, operating behind this smoke screen, focus on the fast buck. They talked incessantly about taking care of Joe Sixpack and then screwed him to the wall over the last 8 years.

In simple terms, that is why we are in the mess that we are in.

They brought our country to its knees with deregulation but then continue to talk about small government which is just alternative spin for deregulation. They want to continue the free for all that just brought us down.

With the level of greed and ethics that we have just experienced in Washington and Wall Street, we should have learned that you can't give a bunch of Republicans unregulated control of the national budget. They will steal everything that is not nailed down, and sometimes they will even steal the stuff that is nailed down.

Until they decide to select mature, qualified candidates for office, they should continue to play with games such as redesigning their image - so they don't hurt anybody.

The Republicans need a lot more than a new logo! They need a new way of thinking and acting and some sensitivity classes! They need to get rid of the neocons and wingnuts and negativity and plain out nastiness. Until they do that they will remain clueless and hopeless!"

Yes, we should be positive like you and call names and accuse any who don't share our own narrow views of "nastiness". Spare us your hypocrisy. You behave exactly like those you hold in contempt.

The fourth choice appeals to me the most. As a college student, the small government grass-roots greatly appeals to me. I am not looking forward to the Obama presidency as it will more than likely lead this nation closer to socialism than it has even been.

Hopefully the devisive and divide and conquer mentality of the GOP as well as the religious right that would deprive Americans from their civil rights will no longer be in power. It is a shame that the GOP and it's history and positive policies have been tainted by these self serving neocon fools. If the GOP ever wants to be viable it won't be a cutsie logo that will bring them back.

The only way to straighten out our political system and to insure that candidates/elected officials are responsibly motivated to equitably and honestly represent the majority of their constituents is to take the power and influence out of the hands of the few and make the politicians dependent on the peoples??? voting without allowing manipulation by subterfuge and by those with power. The only way to accomplish that goal is to first stop money from being the controlling factor and then to increase the regulations, enforcement and penalties governing campaigning and in-office performances. The following policies could be considered for achieving those desired results.
??? To minimize the influence and power of money:
1. Have a drastically restrictive cap on what they can spend, with government providing equal allowances for each candidate.
2. Prohibit candidates/elected officials from ever advertising and/or making exhibitive promotions/statements for political purposes.
3. Prohibit candidates/elected officials from advertising and/or making statements about their opponents and/or their opponents positions, forcing them to concentrate and focus on presenting their own positions/qualifications.
4. Have a reasonable, by given office, number of equitably objective, rational and unbiased debates.
5. Require all third parties to register and adhere to rules prohibiting their representing/attacking any candidate, either directly or indirectly, and allow only their stating of their support/criticism and reasoning regarding their given positions on the issues.
6. Under penalty of fine and even loss of license require all media to provide equal time and objective, unbiased and non-slanted reporting.
7. Provide both internet and printed reporting, listed by office, with reports honestly listing each candidate???s bio (all inclusive personal, family, religious, educational, career, voting record,,,,), their stated positions of adequate but limited length on all positions which are determined to be of current interest and lastly, a longer statement by the candidate detailing what they think is their qualifications and values (all without directly or indirectly referencing their competition or their competition???s positions). These reports would be made available by request, general publication and by direct mail without any bias in availability or access.

RNC Candidate Distributes 'Barack The Magic Negro' Song

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING NEW ABOUT THIS PARTY!

Some of us recognize that all Republicans are not racist, just as we have to recognize that many Democrats were racist towards Obama.

funkdome, angry liberals don't need an excuse to get more angry. You just say the words "Republican" or "bush" and they are at it like school yard bullies. But its not like us Republicans didn't ask for it. Ignoring the Klan comment, cyborg65's comment is dead on. The Republican party is too inclusive, white, hateful, and technologically backwards. Or at least that's the unfortunate perception of many and that needs to change. Hopefully quick before we have 16 years of big government under Bush and Obama.
