“Pot calling the kettle black” kind of sums up the whole “con” game when their manipulation, distortions, lies, and corruptions are point out. But it is always fair to ask of any policy, “cui bono?” “Who benefits?” The GOP has dominated policy making for 30 years. They have nearly always gotten their way in all matters that they cared about (a couple years of democratic congresses notwithstanding), leaving the democrats a few scraps of social policy. So after 30 years, who is better off than they were before? Who is worse off? Perhaps their intentions were good. But what has been the actual effect? How are we doing now compared to 30 years ago?
