Derwood: Sorry, but I don't recall ever being a part of those things. I am equally upset at republicans (perhaps even more so) for betraying the 'ideals' of that party. I believe that both major parties have shifted far to the left, but the democrats more so.
Perhaps the article should read: "REPUBLICANS who cry foul should acknowledge the roll their PARTY has played in what government has become"
The two major parties in our system battle it out over a few high-profile issues, but are essentially identical with respect to fiscal irresponsibility and short-sightedness.
