 | | That story said: "An unsigned one-page memo, distributed to Republican senators, said the debate over Schiavo would appeal to the party's base, or core, supporters." And ever since, reporter Mike Allen and others at the Post have said that they never meant to imply that the memo was created or distributed by Republicans. | | | We, on the other hand, have questioned repeatedly whether the memo was authored by Republicans at all, and have raised the possibility that it is a Democratic dirty trick. | | | For more than a week, the mainstream media have been beating up the Republican Party over an alleged "GOP talking points memo" that, they argue, proves the Republicans took up the Terri Schiavo case in hopes of political gain. |

| | Clinton agreed to welfare reform — over the objections of most liberals, including his own wife — because the Republicans forced him to and he'd have lost the 1996 election if he didn't. | | | Republicans who are loath to credit Clinton with reforming welfare have tended to portray him as a poser who only signed the bill for superficial political reasons (even if aides like Reed had a deeper understanding). | | | I hope that all of you who have been referring to the theocons as the "Taliban wing" of the Republican Party are appropriately ashamed of yourselves. |

| | Fringe parties (from Germany) -- Encyclopædia Britannica |
| | In the 1980s and '90s, the Republicans and the DVU won seats in several state legislatures, with the Republicans' support particularly concentrated in Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg, and Berlin. | | | Of Germany's small fringe parties, only the rightist Republican Party and the DVU, together with a handful of regional and special-interest bodies, are now visible in national or regional elections. | | | The National Democratic Party of Germany, the oldest of the country's right-wing parties, was formed in 1964 and gained little support in national elections, though it was able to enter several state parliaments in the late 1960s. |

| | The German Right: Markets, Morality and Migration, by Jan-Werner Mueller |
| | Given Merkel's weakness, it is not surprising that Edmund Stoiber, prime minister of Bavaria and head of the CDU's Bavarian sister party, the Christian Social Union, has been positioning himself as the most likely conservative candidate for the federal election in 2002. | | | The party was never as clearly neoliberal as Republicans or British conservatives, and its Catholic social doctrine already contains many of the policy prescriptions that conservative parties in the West are now selling as ideological innovations. | | | When Helmut Kohl's Christian Democratic Union was crushed in the federal election of 1998, Germany's longest-serving chancellor left behind a party that was not only ideologically exhausted, but also in organizational shambles, because the entire party had been organized around Kohl. |

| | The fact that FDR (and La Guardia and Cermak) were Democrats in 1930-1932 and not Republicans has huge implications (and that the Republicans had no one of anywhere near the charisma of any single one of those three). | | | Lenin was sent back to Russia by the far-right-wing military dictatorship of Germany headed by Hindenburg and Ludendorff (usually known as the Third Supreme Command). | | | If anything, since the Bolshevik Revolution helped the Third Supreme Command, if there had been no Revolution, Germany's (and Austro-Hungary's) fall could have been even more disastrous when WWI was sealed by the American entrance into the war (since Germany might have still been fighting on two fronts rather than one). |
