The party of the extreme, and is a certain fat guy in Florida projecting?

Is there any doubt that a certain political party in Washington is becoming a bit extreme? Consider the following: A popular republican group has removed the word "Republican" from their title. The group formerly known as "The Republican Main Street Partnership" is now just "The Main Street Partnership".

I can't say that I blame them. I mean who would want to be associated with a political party that includes this guy? (Really Alex? The NYPD is a hit squad?)

"The organization's board of directors voted Tuesday morning to scrap party identification from its title and be known simply as "The Main Street Partnership." The group's new president, former Ohio Republican Rep. Steven LaTourette, told Yahoo News that he plans to begin conversations with Blue Dog Democrats and centrist groups in the coming months.

"The goal is to try and fill the void that is the middle," LaTourette, who resigned from Congress this year, said. "The American political system is like a doughnut: You've got sides, but you don't have anything in the middle, and it would be my goal to work with Republicans and Democrats who want to find the path forward to getting things done and compromise."

Good luck with that Steven. At least you have taken a positive first step.

Finally, speaking of crazy republicans,did you see where Rush Limbaugh said that liberals are seeking to "normalize pedophilia"? Now now Rush, people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Let's just leave it at that.
