Osama Bin Laden can’t destroy America. North Korea can’t destroy America. Iran can’t destroy America. But the Republican Party can destroy us all.
Today’s Republicans are a collection of corporate owned politicians, dangerous propagandists like Limbaugh and Beck, and voters who either work on Wall Street, or are imbeciles who thought the rapists in “Deliverance” were just a couple of “good ‘ole boys.”
The vast majority of us, our country and our Constitution were shredded for eight long, horrible years. And thousands of American service people and perhaps hundreds of thousands of Iraqis are dead. Has anyone been held responsible for any of it?
What scares the hell out of me is the Republicans regaining power with the knowledge that they can do anything they want to do and not be held accountable.
And what do we see on the Republican horizon? Palin version 1.0, Bachmann version 1.0, and Cheney version 2.0. This is what the Republican Party is all about? These are their best and brightest? But what’s really scary is that there are millions who can’t wait to vote for these empty suits … umm, dresses. (Well, you can’t say the Republicans aren’t leading the way in breaking through the “glass ceiling.")
Since losing power, the Republican Party has done anything and everything to block legislation that would benefit most of us, and badmouthed the current administration and congress as “socialists.” (They’re implying Communists, but that term is out of date.)
If you’re not terrified that these people would ever again gain power, then you have no right to ask where your freedoms went once they’re gone. Today’s Republican Party is the lunatic fringe of the human species. And they are a clear and present danger to everyone who is sane.
