The Headline to the article says, “GOP lacks leadership on foreign policy.”

The author could have dropped the, “…on foreign policy.” All he would have had to do after that is sign his name.

Grover Norquist, the influential head of Americans for Tax Reform, said that aides to George W. Bush told him privately that a withdrawal strategy “was always their plan.” ???????

He also told me privately that a stimulus and a removal of stem cell research was always their plan. And he also told me the lottery numbers for yesterday were 2-45-39-10-11. I sure wish he would have made that public before today! Grover lives up to his name, Grover, what a shmuck.

I think the article's title should be shortened to “GOP Lacks Leadership”.

The Republicans have no ideas to contribute. Moreover, we have no need for the type of leadership demonstrated during the last 8 years. The Republican neocons and reactionary right continue to run out of the party anyone who can think objectively and creatively about the nation's problems. Seems to be their method of attaining their death wish.

Actually , is the first senseable article I've on the republican side in a long time. I opted out of the republican party because they have no direction,not idea, and no matter what idea's obama administration has, they say NO! No communication, just screaming, throwing bills on the senate floor, and bring idiots like RUSH, and Ann coulter in to talk at CPAC, instead of some education, intelligent republicans with new idea's and leadership! This party needs new direction! It needs to be seen working with this administration, and showing it cares about America,it direction and the people who hired them! They don't always have to agree, but when they don't, than they should be ready to put a new idea and direction on the table that the Demacrates and American people can see and work with. This is what we want from the Republican party. Not throw away all that work in the past, but most of it and start over with progressive idea's. New technology, and catch up with the up and comeing new idea's for energy, and be more than “Drill baby Drill”! Now that in itself was and is sad. Stop nominateing black men like steele, simply because they are black. The GOP needs a real leader, black or white don't matter to us. Stop throwing our young talent into the lime light, untilll they are ready. Don't do it because they happen to have a immigration story similiar to Obama!! When you elect someone or choose them to be a spokesman, look at their national,international talent,education,intellect,and surely if they are technology savy and can show that up front. There are young republicans(black and white, women and men) who are out there like that! Stop inviteing Rush/Hannity/Ann C. and the like as the brightest and best we can get to address our party, and start doing the leg/computor/research work needed to find them, and bring them in the fold and spend a few weeks getting them ready to inter our political relm. Thats what us republicans want and need, if you expect us to return to the party!

The Gop has never had any forgein policy or ideas, they were all too busy getting their pockets lined with cash from lobbists, drug companies, oil companies and any other places they could. That's why this country is in the hole. As far as McCain ,this man lives in the pass. He still thinks he is flying planes in Viet Nam. He is so senile and disaggreable. Gop knows nothing but obstruct.

This headline begs the question since it is abundantly clear that the GOP never had any leadership on foreign policies these last eight years. Look at the terrible mess they left behind. The less GOP leadership on foreign policies the better. Adding to their absolute lack of leadership on economic policies over $1,000,000,000,000 deficit left behind when times were supposed to be 'good' and proposing a $3, 000,000,000,000 tax cuts for the rich as their solution to the economic crises.

They could not govern – evidenced by the last eight years, cannot play being in opposition with any degree of common sense, decorum or humility – see them flounder and flail in the wind. One has to ask over and again, what exactly does the GOP stand for? Answers on the back of a postage stamp please!!
