The GOP has lost its way

have not posted my thoughts for some time, those who do not know me. I ran for House of Deletes in 2010 and US Senate in 2012. I like many were and are still fed up with our elected officials with both political parties for a lot of reasons. I decided to leave the Republican Party several months ago for several reasons.  Like most political parties throughout history; deception towards the voter for political objectives is and will always be the end game. So like the growing majority I am without a voice or a political party. Yet I feel free.

The Republican Party has lost its way and in many respects has not changed.  They have circumvented freedom buy establishing the rules of how and when a person can vote. Thus they speak of freedom on one hand, yet bind freedom in chains on the other.

Women’s rights they are no better.

They have lied about the ACA and have no real plan for the economy. I am not sure who I will vote for this coming election. But if you think it will be tea party nit wits well you can count me out. I hope they have independents on the ballot. If not I will continue to be in the majority. No party to vote for.

Thus flip a coin
