I realized that when they pulled their horrid stunt on Terry Schiavo. Then again when they stole the election from Al Gore. Then it was reenforced for me further when they lied us into Iraq. And again when they stole the next presidency from John Kerry. And then when they tanked the economy and hurt all of us. And then when they opposed President Obama blindly for 8 years.

This is not something new. It is just more flagrant than it used to be.
