GOP or CAP (Copy And Paste)? You Decide

I've said many times:  "The more things change, the more GOPers don't."  Here's three examples of just that.

In 1994, Newt "Is My Wife Well Enough To Divorce Yet?" Gingrich came up with some slogans he packaged and sold as "The Contract On With America."  In September 2010, GOPer Minority Leader (thank God!)  John Boehner cut and pasted from  it and repackaged that same old (stuff) as the "Pledge To America."  Let's look!

(link to The Daily Show" here)

In California, The "new" GOPer candidate for Governor is saying the exact same (stuff) the old GOPer candidate did.  Let's look!

(Link to YouTube here)

WOW!!! They titled that YouTube "Echoes" for a reason, yes?

And then locally, as described in full detail here, disgraced GOPer Mayor Phil Young's 2006 campaign website was blatantly cut and pasted to GOPer Endorsed candidate Donna Azarian's 2010 campaign website.  

This is from Phil Young's 2006 "Values" webpage:

TwoPuttTommy :: GOP or CAP (Copy And Paste)? You Decide
Efficient Government:  Eden Prairie is a very-well run city.  I want to make it even better....

This is on the GOPer-Endorsed Azarian, 2010 "Issues" webpage:

Fiscal Responsibility  --  Eden Prairie is a very-well run city.  I want to make it even better....

More?  But of course!!!

Young, circa2006:

...While every community should take steps to capture its past, our residents have told us that spending tax dollars on historical preservation is not a priority.  The City Council should honor the community opinions which it has solicited.

GOPer Azarian, today:

...While every community should take steps to capture its past, our residents have told us that spending tax dollars on historical preservation is not a priority.  The City Council should honor the community opinions which it has solicited.

And there's more, of course, as described in full detail here - with screenshots, too!  Maybe I should make another YouTube....

It's really rather pathetic.  The more things change, the more the CAP (Cut And Paste) GOP doesn't.
