The Republican Party's Vision of America's Future

As an auditor, I learned early that when a perceived situation seems utterly crazy when judged by expected criteria, it is often because the subject is operating on otherwise rational, but non-standard, assumptions or objectives. Stated more simply, ' crazy ' is a relative judgment.

I have struggled for the past two years to find a rational comprehension of the Republican vision of America's future. I have concluded that the term ' rational '  should be removed from the criteria. That leaves the perception of Republican strategy as a condition best described as ' fog of war ' rather than a coherent statement of policy goals.

So, what is the Republican Party's vision of America's future?

Afghanistan.

Onward
