DON'T follow us into some hellhole of apathy! The GOP has ALWAYS been crazy/evil stupid. Cotton proves you can fool a lot of people all the time. So does Foxnews and CNN.
Jesse Helms was one evil asshole, don't think wet behind the ears Cotton even registers on the scale of Helms...yet. For some reason, we have a lot of people in America that like the way things are. They like Reaganomics. They like the 2nd amendment. They like wars with people that don't speak English. They constantly misspell their protest signs. You might like to think it is Down South...but no sir, that was 60 years ago.
NOW it is from one corner of America to another. The 47 traitors represent millions (ack) of people that live in hopes of America returning to the days before women had any rights and black people were slaves. THAT is fucking scary and THAT is what should keep people up at night when they want something to worry about.
So how did it come to this? Did you forget about that entire 8 years of George Bush and Dick Cheney? They pretty much destroyed any semblance of a nation by stealing 2 elections, starting 2 wars. One war based on lies and the other seemed not to matter since Bush let OBL walk away from harm.
Don't let Canada fall like we have. Even 8 years of miracle work by Obama is just the start. We will be feeling the impact from Nixon on up for decades and decades.
Moral of the story, don't let anti-intellectualism gain roots in your government or educational system. That included fundamentalism no matter what flavor it comes in. Don't pretend economic stimulus is created by tax cuts or extremely wealthy people. Make sure to have a high voter turnout for every election.
But that probably won't happen, Canada probably will follow us into the Land of Stupid.
