The GOP leadership seems to have foresaken even the pretext as the party of compassionate conservatism as they seek power lost. The Republican Party has adopted the 'values' of the various Tea Parties, those ad hoc groups whose leaders guise populist rhetoric while appealing to the avarice and bigotry of their flock.
Personal ambition, lust for power and callous disregard for anyone but themselves seems to define this movement quite well. Hate and fear of the aged, infirm, unemployed or "colored", as one of their leaders is want to say, is not the basis for a Grand Old Party, it is the basis for a neo-fascist iteration Americans need to reject.
