Colorado GOP rep declares: ‘The Republican Party is dead’ – The Hill

A Republican congressman from Colorado on Monday declared that the Republican Party is dead, arguing itno longer has a vision for a better America.

In an op-ed for The Denver Post, Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.) said the party that once had the blood of the people coursing through its veins is not pursing conservative policies.

After eight years of assuring that unified Republican government would allow for conservative policy, our Republican Congress has accomplished little, except for passing a spending bill that shackles the aspirations of future generations with crippling debt, Buck wrote.

We care about the meaningful. We have a vision for the meaningful, Buck said, speaking for Coloradans.

If we can pass a balanced budget amendment, a responsible spending bill, and reforms of our health care system, of our tax system, of our entitlement system, and of our immigration system, then we can begin to fulfill the one-time destiny of this party, a destiny to offer hope and prosperity to the people of this great nation.
