63. Then again....

Many are just sick of the fact that you can't just do the right thing in this country overnight because Americans are full of propaganda that "big government" is a dirty word. You have to hold their hand and take baby steps to assure them everything isn't going to be destroyed just because the government actually did something.

After all, Conservatives have given plenty of examples of government at it's worse and have drilled into the public that all those bad things they hate about government is the fault of Liberals. Sometimes they'll sabotage a good idea by underfunding it and then putting someone in charge to distort the intent of the program from within. Other times they'll add layers of bureaucracy where you have to give everything but sit on a copy machine for a scan of your ass before they'll even tell you if you qualify for a program. All to make Liberal ideas look bad and government to look too intrusive and to discourage people from even applying for anything. Conservatives got language inserted in practically every form that threatens people with prison and in some programs they say even the ATTEMPT to FIND OUT if you can get help is considered fraud. It's insane.

Many of the disgruntled Liberals believe things have to crash and burn for Americans to wake the hell up over what Republicans are all about. Let Conservatives create their total nightmare for America and then swoop in and be looked at as heroes for a change instead of upstart children whining because they want to sit at the adult table.
