(10,540 posts)This has become a sad, surreal country. It is ridiculous that the Republicans can oppose everything Obama does to the point of being silly as this is. The media will report their stupid shit as if it is a valid point of view, when they are not starting it themselves. The RW media has used our airwaves to brainwash and misinform Americans. Now the Republicans have purity tests which prohibit their politicians from doing anything approaching compromise or being reasonable, even if they want to.
Our country is literally run by the Plutocrats now, with only an appearance of Representative Democracy and that facade is starting to fade. How anyone other than John Roberts cannot see that massive campaign contributions to get or keep candidates in office will not obligate the politician to do the bidding of their benefactors to continue to get the money and stay in office is beyond me!
How anyone in their right mind believes this crazy stuff is also beyond me. At some point I think my RW, former friends would look at something like this and say "Whoa, stop, that is a bridge too far! I wonder what other shit they have been saying is false?" As well as asking themselves "Why are they saying this to me?" But no, they won't ever stop to even consider that they are being sold a load of crap, they enjoy attacking Libs and Obama too much to realize that they are the Dupes!
