A Rose Is a Rose That Is Not a Rose

Whether fighting or French kissing, they're both TWO EVILS!

George Washington knew the dangers of organized political parties.  Though he recognized the reality of people's tendencies to organize and operate in groups like political parties, he more importantly saw that every government regards political parties as enemies.  They are too apt to engage in such acts as exacting revenge on their opponents, through alternating domination, becoming and being a frightful despotism leading at length, to a more formal and permanent despotism, based in the politics of personal destruction.  Washington warned that the party system serves to distract the public councils, enfeeble the public administration, and agitate the community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms while kindling the animosities of one against another and opening the door to foreign influence and corruption.
Now, two hundred and some odd years later, those prophecies have come to pass, as the governance of the United States is embroiled in non-productive in-fighting of an entrenched two party system, though there are approximately seventy-some organized parties throughout America.  There's a dozen or so with the word socialist or communist in the name of the party.  Many people are labeled as Independents, without specifying whether they're members of the Independent American Party, the American Independent Party or the Independence Party, or if they are, like this writer, Unaffiliated with any party.
But most voters only know D's and R's.  Quite often at election times, there is talk of and actual 'third party' candidates.  It is easy to overlook and ignore that there is almost always in contemporary American politics, additional candidates with G's and L's and other letters after their names.  Though they have little, or more accurately, no chance of winning an election, they do, quite often affect the outcome between the R's and the D's, as Green Party Presidential candidate Ralph Nader did in 2000 and as Libertarian gubernatorial candidate Mike Munger did in North Carolina in 2008 and as third party candidates allowed Bill Clinton two  non-majority wins in the 1990's.
But let's talk about just the D's and the R's and the odd little names this writer has devised to describe the various types of people within each party.
Within the modern Democratic Party are true Democrats in the vein of Harry Truman and Jack Kennedy and the voters who elected them.  But much more numerous are Demoncats; mostly shyster, charlatan lawyers turned professional political party putzes purely possessed by overwhelming ambition for personal power.  Blinded by that quest for political power, Demoncats have lost sight of the party's original center-left vision of social liberalism and progressivism with strict Constitutional adherence and abhorrence of wealthy, moneyed interests.  They now envision a Utopian view favoring total left socialism with absolute ignorance of constitutionality.   Then there are the Dummycraps, those who mindlessly, with a mob mentality, support the Demoncats, just because they have a D after their names.  There was a time in America when the word Democrat was a horrible epithet meaning one who panders to the masses.  Since the time of Woodrow Wilson, the man pictured on the $100,000 bill, democracy has been the catch word for what America is, or, at least, is supposed to be.  Nothing could further from the truth.  The founders and framers knew that democracy is but a polite term for mob rule, where a majority could subjugate the rights of a minority with a simple 51 to 49 vote.
Republicans are supposed to be a constitutionally conservative party which advocates for small, limited government and the rights of the individual through the rule of law.  But like Demoncats, too many have become Repulsicans, reveling in their own avarice for big government and personal political power.  These Repulsicans are those who make up the party establishment of Rockefeller, Romney, Boehner,  et al.  The recent emergence of The Tea Party as an opposition faction within the party may be the party's and the nation's last best hope for saving the Republic from further and total demise.  And as there are Dummycraps who fall right into line with their Demoncat masters, there are Rebooblicans, like my late father, who blindly believe whatever the party bosses say.
As for the Libertarians, the party with which I was affiliated for decades, they have become too much like the Demoncats and Repulsicans to become the Liebertarians, willing to tell any untruth to gain political power, missing the party's message of absolute minimal governmental scope and authority and maximum individual rights and liberty.
It is time, it is past time to outlaw organized political parties, even through Constitutional amendment, if necessary.  If a citizen wishes to run for public office, it should be his or her individual ambition, and not part of a largely anonymous, larger group's quest.
