10. Good... Please, hear me out.
I was a very repuke leaning person for many years. I never was much of a voter though. Didn't pay much attention. I was like most who might vote because of "perception" not facts.
Then I went to work for two ultra righty(they cursed FDR the way we curse Bush) bigots who, sensing a convert, were constantly on me. There was also the non stop kool aid radio... After about 2yrs of this I suddenly got tired of the constant vitriol, logic failures, and hatred that seemed to be all around me. SO I started "looking into it for myself" and omg. You wouldn't believe the kind of 360 degree turn around I pulled. I was quite uncaring before that. I believe that if the right wing attack machine comes out from under the coat of the party faithful it will backfire in a magnificent way. People are mostly caring and somewhat intelligent. If they get their noses rubbed in the hatred and ignorance of the radical reich in the obvious way you speak of, they will turn into the neo con, bush crime fundy's worst nightmare.

I did.
