I think a better way to have a discussion is to just ask the question instead of summarizing quotes that in itself are biased, barely credible and slants the discussion from the get go. Specter and Snowe are / were Republications in name only. They are not Conservatives by any stretch of the imagination.

I give TIME magazine about a much credibility as MSNBC or CNN, both have ratings dropping through the floor including some large liberal mainstream newspapers. Many in the liberal media love to quote sound bites and talking points and espouse the demise of the Republican party. I’m sure they would love nothing more. It’s again pure propaganda. Same old talking points. Tax cuts for the evil rich. Republications that don’t want to give health care to poor children, etc.

Remember when the Republications were accused of wanting to starve children by taking their school lunches away? When in fact their budget for school lunches actually increased but just not as much as the Democrats proposed? They called it “cutting the school lunch program.”

Interesting how conservative radio flourishes. Where’s all the liberal talk shows? Maybe a few out there but as you know most are never talked about or even known at all. Why? Because no one advertises on them. Why? Because no one listens.

The Republican party has to a degree lost their way. That doesn’t mean the millions and millions of Conservatives all of a sudden are going to vote Democrat. I think the better question is have the Democrats lost their way?.. or maybe a better way to put it hijacked by the radical left.

Of course now Conservatives who want to keep more of what THEY EARN are now considered the far right and somehow rich people are no longer entitled to keep what they earn even though they already pay the vast majority of the federal tax bill.

“As if school kids didn't get enough liberal propaganda. Whether parents know it or not, millions of students across the country have been receiving biased news magazines in the classroom. Without adult guidance, children are at risk to take as fact the consistently liberal views of Time magazine.”

“Given the state of public education, students that saw the Time environmental issue cover on April 21 2008 may not have understood why veterans were outraged by the magazine's doctoring of the iconic Joe Rosenthal photograph to show the Marines at Iwo Jima raising a tree instead of the original American flag. And students would have no way of knowing that Time's managing editor last year dismissed as "fantasy" the notion that journalism should be objective.”
