Restoration of integrity in government has been an essential element to the achievement of our unparalleled good times. We will faithfully preserve the sound financial management which already has reduced annual spending $14 billion below the budgets planned by our Democratic predecessors and made possible in 1954 a $7.4-billion tax cut, the largest one-year tax reduction in history.

Wow, if only they still followed that one, right?
What do you think of the change the GOP has undergone in the past 50-60 years, specifically in regards to social issues? You think it's been a positive or negative change?
I miss that Republican party - which was still around until the late 1980's or so.

No, that was not written by Arianna Huffington. That is a real person, you know, so don't say it's a quote when it isn't.
It's not someone's "take", it's direct quotes from the Republican platform. And no, I never said or implied it's the entire platform - obviously it is not. I only posted the social issues part, which is so different than today.
What do you think about those changes?
