"The thought manifests as the word. The word manifests as the deed. The deed develops into habit. And the habit hardens into character. So watch the thought and its ways with care. And let it spring from love, born out of concern for all beings."

And that explains why the character of the Republican Party has become what it is and is dying out in America as people observe it and are repulsed by it. AND THAT IS HOW IT SHOULD BE. The sooner the GOP is dead and gone completely, the better. Just view this vile hate- and fear-soaked ad to the right for all the reasons why.
