What policy is the GOP further right on today than they were 16 years ago?



Immigration, debt, government benefits, national healthcare, war, taxes... pretty much fricking everything

The GOP may be slightly more populist on some of those issues, and some of those issues have become more crisic, but I see little difference in the positions of Republicans from sixteen years ago.

The DNC wants their talking points back.

Immigration is a zero concern dagnabit.
Illegal IS a nationwide issue.

Debt seems to be issue neither party can/is addressing very well.

ACA. Repubs and others are right to be against this loadstone.

War? Really? No war issues under BHO and the H Reid led senate?

If less taxes and thus more money for people to keep that they worked for is further right then it was to far left to begin with.

"Pretty much f@cking everything else" is just lazy on your part.

I don't see how the GOP policy is further right on a single one of those issues.

They were impotent on immigration 16 years ago.

They produced a balanced budget 16 years ago, they're debt producers today.

They were for limited government benefits 16 years ago, they grew government benefits under W.

They opposed Hillary care and national health care 16 years ago, and expanded government care under W.

You're so wrong, I'm embarrassed for you.
