but if there was ever a time that we need to stand like a rock and knock the Repubs down every time they try and get back to their normal posture, the time is now.

No more "Coom-bye-ahhh" and playing patty cake. The RepubliCONS have bared their souls and have shown the world who they are and what a total destructive force they can be to the U.S. and the entire World for that matter.
It is excrutiatinly evident that the RepubliCONS can never be allowed back at any level of power......
Anyone putting out some of that "it isn't reaching across the aisle" Bullshit should be forced to review the last four years and how near the entire RepubliCON Party is to cramming their Corporate Fascist Tyranny down our throats......

but the Democrats where still clinging to the fiction of cooperation. I was right and they were wrong.

You can't cooperate with a zealot unless you become one, yourself. While the Republicans vote as an unreasonable bloc, they are unreachable and unteachable, even if they act like friends when they're not voting on something.

Obama came in a little naive, and being the gentleman he is, tried to work with Repubs to do good things, not destructive things.
He didn't even begin to recognize that the entire group of RepubliCONS were corrupt to the bone, and malicious psychopaths rolling out their fucked up agenda and ramming it down the nation's throats.....

a friend's mother used to say: "You are judged by the company you keep".......

She also said: "Actions speak louder than words"........

I'm sorry, but even if you look the other way on the 60-70 Million that voted for him the first time, when, after all we have seen, they voted for Trump and other RepubliCONs a second time, these voters truly are supporting, condoning, and sanctioning corruption.........

It means downplaying or ignoring right wing trash while picking apart anything to go after Democrats on.
