I left the party a long time ago, but I think you’d probably be a reasonable choice, really, if you had made any political alliances.
(Of course, my standards of reasonable preclude me from supporting anyone the GOP would actually nominate for President, since they’ve had a strong anti-income-tax litmus test for all elected officials for 20 years, & I think** income tax cuts have gone too far.** So my opinion isn’t worth anything to the GOP.)
What other joking job recommendations do we think would make sense in a world slightly more open to possibilities?
Can you imagine Bricker trying to get anything done? He’d be arguing with the staff all day long over definitions, they’d agree, and then he’d try to get them to admit that even those definitions are not precise enough. All said and done, while I’m confident that Monsignor Bricker is smarter, better educated and wiser than any Republican prospect, that they will pick an idiot like Romney or Palin instead.
If by “getting things done” you mean causing Oak to lead an armed insurrection, then yeah, sure. Go with that. Lots of people will die, and the country may never recover, but if that’s what you want, I’ll trust you to have a cold ale waiting on me when I get to Valhalla.
Otherwise, I could probably get behind a Bricker/Shodan ticket. Especially if there might be a SCOTUS spot (or at least a federal judgeship) for Oak…
Also, both tickets are idealogues. I agree with the gonzomax/Der Trihs ticket a lot more, but they’re still ideologues and would have problems working with the other side.
I want Administrator of the GSA. A humble enough request in comparison to the above, and let’s face it, there’s a few things need fixing up there . . .
As a Democrat, I’d be happy with President Bricker (and a democratic congress :p) because for all the legalisms, I pretty much trust him not to bullshit me.
