(602 posts)I believe the driving force behind the rise of the GOP sociopathic party is the extreme Christian right-wing. They don't believe in global warming or other science that conflicts with their "moral" agenda. They see only evil and corruption when they look outside of their windows, but we all know from the millions of Yahoo and other posts by these whackos that they are merely projecting their own psyches onto others. They are racist, bigoted, full of hate and anger. Very few of them are very smart or even educated beyond high school, but they think they know it all. Lying is what they do, non-stop, whether they realize it or not. Their agenda is to impose through Federal law their "moral values" on the rest of the nation. Since they truly believe that they are on a mission from God, they believe that winning through dirty tricks, lies, threats or any other form of sub-f*ckery is A-OK -- it is God's will, and God is on their side. And since they can't win with just the religious right-wing vote, they have activated the "truly sociopathic and angry haters" segment of society through propaganda, lies, hot-button issues or whatever other means they can think up. Now, here they all are, the Republican Party, with their man Mitt Romney just a few stolen votes away from the Presidency where he and his Mormon/Christian right-wing extremists can -- and will -- cook up all kinds of drama. Dangerous times are upon us, whether we like it or not.
