Republicans, The party like it's 1999
Edited on Sat Sep-12-09 10:03 AM by Gman2
Has anyone noticed the similarity of the Reagan James Watt era, and our own. All we're missing is being told that Jesus will be arriving shortly, so who cares. Global warming,phffft. Arsenic in water, yeah? Rocket fuel in our groundwater, does a body good. Economy? Do nothing, it'll be fine. Islam? Exterminate. Rest of the world, screwum.

Any proposal from the Dems, is poo-pooed immediately, and the impossibility of the situation is repeated over and over. No solutions are forthcoming, just axiomatic bromides. The republican party has become the party of neo-luddites. They are to stop any progress, of any kind. This is to allow them a clean reboot, when they smear the public into changing it's loyalties. All that introspection the republicans were to endure, to come up with an agenda that gets the peoples REAL work done, was never begun. Instead, Reagan's corpe, was bandied about, and Hitler was realigned with the liberals.

The right is continuing to display their flaming hair, to ever lower levels of credibility. Normally, this would give one, at some point pause. The right crashing thru the construction zone bridge out signs, can mean only one thing. We may never pass this way again. AS I am increasingly aware, the right is burning their bridges, and will anticipate Jesus ironing this all out. Or they will just give up trying to convince us of the value of apathy, and yosemite sam us all into fascism. The kind that does no longer exist, even in history.

The right is DANGEROUS. Anytime you are encountered by a person that has nothing to lose, and is angry and delusional, you very easily could become the problem that they are itchin' to fix. Any wakeup call is hunky dory, according to a lot of internet minutemen. Their fantasies of armed insurrection get even better. They feel that the armed forces don't dig workin' for a color. They feel that if they rise up, as with Tiannanmen square, the national guard will defect, only en masse. And oust, Honduras fashion, the pretender to democracy.

They warned us how far they would allow us to take our illusions of choice. In reality, they will only allow us what they deem constitutional.

As in the high court, we might as well have a computer in most gov. jobs, and positions, as they are only allowed the right' narrow view of options. We will be allowed our playtime, but our spanking is coming. And let's not kid ourselves, our neighbors and countrymen, will murder as many of us as they require, to wriggle out of the corner they have painted themselves. And sleep like babies. Did you hear Hitler was a leftie?
