    The “parasite” that entered the GOP of which Rick Wilson is speaking is the prion disease that infected it when Ronald Reagan first fed it the prion disease in the late 1970s.

        They've been the monster since LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act. They just now say the quiet parts loud.

        Thank you. My 1st Presidential campaign was heading the Boston U Students for Dukakis in '88 and the Republicans were full on racist back then with Willie Horton. Two years later the "hands" ad against Mayor Harvey Gantt. This isn't new.

        At least Atwater recanted on hie deathbed for Willie Horton. The ratfuckers now can't tell the difference.

        I believe Reagan picked up that infection from the stagnant pool of Goldwater in which he first learned to swim.

        Goldwater, of course, had contracted it from Robert Taft who picked up a grievously mutated version of it from his father William Howard's bathtub.
