Can somebody please explain what has happened to the Republican Party?

Question

How is it that the party formerly known as the "Family Values Party" has become the party of not such great values? At the convention tonight, two of the main speakers had numerous marriages between them. Fred Thompson is on his second (and younger trophy wife). His first wife filed for divorce citing "cruel and inhuman treatment". Rudy Giuliani is on his third marriage. It is also his wife's third marriage. Rudy's second wife filed for divorce citing "adultery" as the reason for divorce. And not to be outdone, the nominee for the party is a divorced man who divorced his wife after she was disfigured in a car accident.

What happened to the values this party claimed to have?????????

Answer 1

Well Bush will do that to you. and its hard to get off your rep. when you have Sarah and Bristol Palin on stage.

Answer 2

It is amazing the lack character of the people they are parading across the stage.  They are all a$$hole womanizers.  Yet, they have nerve to have Sara Palin up there as the VP nominee.  Apparently she doesn't get it.  However, her values are a bit questionable too.  She'll sacrifice her family for political gain.  She's a power hungry a$$hole.

I'm proud to be a Democrat!

Answer 3

Boy you really hit on the major issues didn't you.

Answer 4

people are getting smarter otherwise nothing really new happened with the Republican party. they were always the party of hypocrites.

Hockey fa: you didn't really think about the question before answering. the major point to the question is that republicans are bunch of hypocrites. who cares what they say about any major issues when you can't trust what they say? read my lips" no more new taxes"! if you know what i mean!
