It's a cliche: but all they have to offer is HATE and FEAR
I almost get tired of hearing it, but it's fuckin' true.

Their Klan rally bombed last night.

Zell foamed at the mouth like freeper on meth. Then he went on Hardball and proved he's in the early stages of dementia.

All they can do is cite 9/11 and bash Kerry.

Make no mistake: these modern-day pukes are the meanest, vilest, most disgusting people on the planet right now.

They are trash; human filth.

It's true, all they have is hate and fear.

It's going to be fun to watch the chimp address his Klan rally tonight.

Their Klan rally is being held behind a thick walls, guarded by a paramilitary force, in a city that HATES THEIR FUCKIN' GUTS.

Fuck them.

1. Then they use projection on top of it all.
Right wingers are famous for projecting their own failings onto others.

They don't care about the poor so they try to project that we don't care about the poor.

They spew hate and vitriol, so they claim we are all angry and spew hate and anger.


Same thing with right wing fundie churches.

They recruit and brainwash people into their sick form of Christianity and try to indoctrinate all children in school and then acuse gays of recruiting and indoctrinating children.

2. cold war children 'ave seen it grow
This diet of hate and fear has been the basis for 50 years of
cold war. And for a generation starved of good schools, public
services and a decent public common, we can suck on the cold
satisfaction of the massive military budget that has rotted out
our own lives, and now spawned in a 3rd generation of warmongers,
nothing but hate and fear.

It took 50 years of genetic experimentation to reduce the will to
defend the country in to hateful spite and war against all civility
everywhere.

It is our loss made more bitter, that we've paid for an armed
police state to repress our own free society.

fuck them.

3. Remeber Fail-safe and
The ugly American? Guy named Eugene Burdick wrote both, along with one called 'The Ninth Wave'. Political theory disguised as fiction. Rove uses it as his bible. Burdick theorizes that dictators sit atop two gates: fear gate and hate gate. they open the fear gate and let fear run out among the people. Then, just before the people break, they slam shut fear and open hate--giving the people some object on which to vent. Frighteningly like Rove's Amerika. Out of print but worth finding and reading.
