Victor Said:

Do Libertarians on this site agree with the Cato Institute's analyst of the GOP pledge to do the same old?

We Answered:

It doesn't matter what anyone says
conservatives will vote for the GOP.
Even if there were a unanimous scientific consensus that the Republican Party was populated by demonic space predators made of socialism, conservatives would still vote for them over Democrats or the "wasted vote" of a third party.

Stella Said:

Why does the GOP's 21-page "Pledge to America" say nothing about earmarks?

We Answered:

Because they want to use earmarks to bring home the extra pork to their districts and states.

Clarence Said:

Did the 1994 GOP "Contract for America" ever get implemented? Did any of it make it through the Senate?

We Answered:

the Contract listed 95 major programs to be cut. In 2000, 6 years later, none were cut and their budget had increased by 13%

" in 2000, the combined budgets of the 95 major programs that the Contract with America promised to eliminate have increased by 13%."

Clyde Said:

Republicans &/or Conservatives what do you think about the Libertarian Cato Institute analyst of GOP Pledge?

We Answered:

The same as everyone thinks of it.

The third (and even MORE watered down) version of a bunch of promises that they have never bothered to follow up on when they have had a majority in both houses and the White House for six years.

I.e.... just more GOP bullshit.

Ramon Said:

Should the GOP have issued an Apology to America rather than a Pledge to America?

We Answered:

The Republicans who were dumb enough to vote for Obama should certainly apologize.
