Reality Check for Republicans

by Mike Ferguson, September 9, 2008 - Tuesday

If I were a medical researcher, I would embark on a study of a phenomenon that is displayed en masse once every four years. I call this condition: Election-Onset Memory Loss.

The symptoms of Election-Onset Memory Loss (or, EOML for short) include forgetting why and how much you do not like a politician before he or she wins a nomination. Post-nomination, the patient suffering from EOML suddenly believes the person he or she disliked so much, on principle, is now a shining example of all the patient holds dear.

I am getting very worried about a number of my friends right now, especially my Republican friends who appear to be the most afflicted by EOML.

The cure for this condition is a dose of Reality Check for Republicans (RCFR).
