Twisted Republicans Dream of Repeating the Lunacy of George W. Bush

The concept of moving backward in time prior to a specific moment or event has been a fantasy of human beings who would change the course of events for their own benefit, or to alter the course of history for the betterment of mankind. Only a lunatic would want go back in time and alter events to recreate disasters, but there are human beings capable of such evil intentions. Republicans have sought to return to the Bush Administration’s disastrous events that nearly crashed the world’s economy and embroiled America in two Middle East wars, and besides Willard Romney’s promise to repeat Bush’s mistakes, Congressional Republicans have attempted to erase President Obama’s accomplishments through perpetual repeal attempts of legislation that’s contrary to their twisted conservative ideology. For nearly two years, Americans have looked on in disbelief at some of the Republican’s policies and agendas that can only be labeled sheer lunacy, but still, they are marching forward despite their agenda portends dark times for America and its citizens.

This week, there were two instances of lunacy in the Republican Party that cannot be overlooked because they epitomize the madness rampant in the conservative movement that is becoming frightening for the potential for catastrophe if they were to be successful. As is often the case with insanity, both examples characterize stupidity and evil the GOP has demonstrated since Barack Obama was elected President.

In the Missouri Republican primary race, congressman Todd Akin won the right to challenge Democrat Claire McCaskill for Senate, and he represents the party well as a typical Republican lunatic. However, challenging him for the crown of crazy is Rep. Steve King of Iowa who said he would like to introduce a bill that, once enacted, would nullify every single law President Barack Obama has signed over the last three years. That’s right, King wants to time travel back to January 19, 2009 and enact Republican austerity measures that would all but guarantee that America, as we know it, would cease to exist. King and Akin represent the worst of humanity and demonstrate they have no compunction sending every American who is not uber-wealthy into to throes of poverty and despair because an African American man is sitting in the Oval Office.

Todd Akin wants to impeach the President because, according to him, “he ignores the Constitution, ignores the laws, wants to impose all of the czars, ignores the economy, causes trillion-dollar-plus deficits every year, and is a complete menace to our civilization.” Akin is running on a platform that hands Social Security to Wall Street, abolishes the minimum wage, privatizes Medicare, preserves taxpayer subsidies for big oil and gas companies, and considers federal student loans “Stage III cancer” that must be excised to save humanity and the American way of life. The immediate question that puzzles Akin is, “what’s the best way to get rid of him?” In lieu of a defeat in November, Akin is panting for Republicans to take control of both houses of Congress to begin immediate impeachment hearings for the imagined offenses listed above. However, Akin’s wet dream of impeachment pales in comparison to Steve King’s dream of one piece of legislation that would nullify every single law President Barack Obama has signed over the last three years.

America cannot survive another Bush-Republican economic agenda and maybe that is the Republicans’ strategy all along; break the government, allow corporations and Wall Street to take control of the nation’s assets, and wage perpetual war in a Crusade to stamp out Islam from every nation on Earth. It may sound like pure lunacy, but no more than resetting the legislative clock to January 19, 2009 and passing a balanced budget amendment, abolishing the federal minimum wage, and handing $2.7 trillion to Wall Street when America was teetering on the edge of economic collapse.
