Diehard Republican says Obama is right: Republicans are hypocrites

There is not very much that a lifelong Republican like me can find to praise about President Obama’s politics but his idea to consider selling the Tennessee Valley Authority is certainly on that list. It disgusts me to learn that several prominent Republicans are criticizing this proposal. This rank hypocrisy and failure to live up to free market principles are why the Bush administration will go down in history as one of worst presidencies. If Republicans cannot support a clearly sensible measure to privatize this huge government bureaucracy then the Republican Party will accelerate its death spiral into oblivion.
