Club for Growth clubs Reagan’s “Big Tent”

Ronald Reagan always proclaimed that the Republican Party was a “Big Tent” meaning that it could accomodate many different political points-of-view. I was never very reassured by this because I kept running into new Republicans who called me and my kind RINOs. (Republicans in Name Only)

We became RINO’s when these new Republicans took over the Party and redefined Rockefeller and Goldwater Republicans out of the Party. After a while some of these new Republicans weren’t content to call us RINO’s. We were much lower than that in my case I was a worse mass murderer than Hitler, Stalin or Pol Pot.

The Club for Growth is more interested in economic growth than stem cells or abortion but like they want purity (as they define it) in the GOP and are busy stamping out heretics. They just spent hundreds of thousands to defeat Republican Rep. Joe Schwarz and now they want to defeat Republican Senator Lincoln Chafee from Rhode Island. They don’t care if a Democrat ends up winning such is their fanaticism.
