Submitted on December 11, 2011
By Tim Dickinson - December 11, 2011
The Republican Party...has backed its entire slate of candidates into far-right corners on everything from the environment and immigration to taxation and economic austerity...On the major policy issues of the day, there's barely a ray of sunshine between any of the viable Republicans...The candidates have...lined up behind a host of...extremist positions: waging war with Iran, slashing or privatizing benefits like Social Security, extending constitutional rights to zygotes, eliminating restrictions on Big Oil...and freeing up Wall Street to return to the lawlessness that buzz-sawed the global economy.
