when did they become the grand old communist party?

Early this fall my fair city is expecting an influx of tens of thousands of assholes Republican delegates. So I was checking the RNC's official convention site to see how worried I should be that my contributions to Barry Obama's presidential campaign might get me kicked out of the city, or bound and gagged and thrown in a holding cell, for the duration of the convention, and I happened to notice a strange and curious sight.

In the smack dabbin middle of the home page is a link that says--for reals--"Keep It Green." Seriously. And it links to some story about assholes RNC staffers, like, cleaning up a river. And I was all, BUT I THOUGHT THEY THOUGHT THE FREE MARKET IS GOING TO SOLVE CLIMATE CHANGE WTF ASSHOLES GOP YOU ARE CHANGING THE RULES OF THE GAME! Head. Spinning.

Honestly, I am perplexed. When did the GOP get infiltrated by a bunch of pinkos and how did MSNBC not catch it?
