Arrogant Republicans Set Back Nov. 8

By Murphy

To The Editor:
It was gratifying to see the arrogance of the Republicans set back on Nov. 8, 2011.
Sen. Jeff Van Drew and his team were insulted and demonized along the way, however, competency rung through. The lower-level politics, now common to our Republican brethren was heightened by a guy named Lee Atwater in 1988, (remember Willie Horton?) further accelerated by Karl Rove and picked up even by local yokels.
Jack Abramoff, the Republican lobbyist, who just served 42 months in prison, recently wrote a book. In his book he cites the fact that he owned 100 Republican congressmen. No wonder the approval rating of the Republican-controlled house is about 5 percent. Isn’t it time for America to wake up? Or, we’ll head the way of Greece and the European market.
The latest super star the Republicans have put up is Herman Cain. In addition to his current problems with women, he wasn’t aware that China was armed with nuclear capabilities. Can you believe that? Although, China may not be a pizza society.
