Political Family Divisions Reveal A State Of Civil War [View all]
There are so many stories about bitterly divided families it looks like we are in a state of a civil war these days. Never have I seen so much division and actually bitter hatred. The effects of RW hate radio are so obvious now. I wonder how many potential food fights loom today.
Even to demand social justice and fair wages and health care results in vicious and sustained attacks. People are labeled communists, Marxists and socialists and that line is ok for many Americans. Even the Pope is being attacked for demanding workers be more than castoffs. And GOPPERS applaud these attacks. We have become our own worst enemies.
My experience with the Colorado recall has been so revealing about what we have become. That experience exposed insurmountable fractures that transcends into individual families as well. Now the gun psychos want to demand an election. The resignation has cheated them out of their vote. They are making it clear they will never accept the validity of any election unless ONLY their guy is allowed to be seated. They will recall, cheat, or nullify everyone else no matter how long it takes. The resignation did not give they the vote they now demand. It is like their football team is down and want minutes added to the clock until they are ahead.
What we are seeing is their version of government. What they really want us revolution and NOT democracy. How deranged we are becoming.
