    “…he’s so outraged by GOP overspending, he’s quitting the party …

    “But he also said he wouldn’t support any cuts in defense, Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid — which, along with debt payments, would put more than two-thirds of the budget off limits.”

    “I’m outraged about something, but don’t do anything to actually fix it.”

    Still sounds like a Republican to me.

    The GOP is hovering near death…
    I’d call an ambulance, but I forgot the number for 911!

    Now he can found a new party– I think the “McLean Stevenson Party” sounds good.

    Or, failing that, cat, he can star in the latest TV to movie production, “Hello, Joe”.

    But does he feel as healthy as a bull moose?

    That approach – ‘cut wasteful government spending!’
    is starting to lose its appeal, as proponents are
    having an increasingly hard time identifying things
    the government spends money on that a significant
    plurality of the voting population wants discontinued.

    How much ARE we spendng on the mohair subsidy these
    days, Joe the Plumber?
