Republican Bunch

I may not share most of the Republican Party's point of view, but I admire how dirty their tactics are at times, how they'd almost stop at nothing to get their way. They know themselves as the smaller guy, and their fight has to be dirty if it's to thrive. It's not what they stand for but how they stand up and bitterly, fiercely fight back. After all the failed policies, they always come back with a vengeance. No shame, just proud in carrying out their not so-much egalitarian agenda.
But of course it's only to be expected that as a large nation we are going to have disagreements. After all, the Founding Fathers went to great lengths in order to ensure that change was gradual; except, the world in which we live isn't, as change is a never ending process. You can't choose not to change; change is always a constant, whether you decide to take part or not. To me, if you choose not to... you're still choosing. And as a nation, we may think ourselves part of what eventually happens. That is, sometimes, the case. However, most of the time, a nation (even ours) is governed by the very few.
The events we see taking place in Egypt, are an example of civil disobedience bringing about the downfall of a nearly thirty-year old rule. The way I see it, Mubarak has still a lot of sway but never again the one he once enjoyed among his people.
But going back to the Republican front, isn't it amazing how -metaphorically speaking -the Republicans as a small mob form a tight bunch that halt the advance of a larger, less compact body (sort of like in the movie 300). It is known that one of the reasons why the Spaniards were so successful in their conquests is that they were out to kill you, unlike ritualistic and superstitious societies like that of the Aztecs that required an enemy warrior be brought and sacrifice in front of everyone. They wanted to capture you alive, as it was customary. You can clearly see how a drastically smaller number of people conquered and enslaved a vast and warrior-like empire.
The Republicans come to mind again. They sure are a tenacious little fuck. Say, if we were to be merciless with them and adopt their aggressive tactics, maybe we will eradicate their ideologies or decimate their analogical numbers, drive them off from the face of the earth! I have quite a few good Republican friends that I am ready to sacrifice when the revolution comes around.
Ah, but even though we disagree, I honestly admire their passion. Take their agenda, for instance; whatever their position, they hold it with a 100% ratio of unilateral agreement. That, in and of itself, is a perfect example of tyranny. Even among democrats, there are disagreements. As humans, we have disagreements with our friends and family, even with our pets, neighbors and ourselves. Specially, with... ourselves! It is what constitutes part of a healthy democracy: having always little, crazy radical and marginal subject. But with the Republican Party that subject is every one of their subjects, forming one unanimous and unequivocal voice.
