The party of fear.......
The Republican party is the party of Fear, No, and the Lunatic Fringe.
Remember the last eight years with George Bush? How most Americans shuddered every time he opened his mouth? It seems like a hundred years ago, and yet, this party’s ability to keep the heat on, the fear rampant and pandering to the lunatic fringe is still working it’s magic.
Blathering every day with key words and insinuations, trying to make everyone sorry that they made the mistake of taking control away from them. How they kept us safe from the terrorists, while they made fortunes off the backs of the working middle class. Lies that were so ridiculous were spoon fed to the ignorant on a daily basis, turning them into facts. Facts without any basis. And fear, constant fear of whatever came to their minds.
Those fears injected into society that made a thinking person afraid to think out loud. Guess what? They are still doing it.
There is a civil war going on in this country right now. Not like the last one, this one is an Un Civil War, where the boundaries blend and separate and the rhetoric pushes them back and forth so reason no longer matters and issues are clouded with non existent concerns, made to keep divisions on even the smallest insignificant minutia important.
The party without power, wields its secret weapons, Christianity, Ignorance and Lies. Lets not forget Racism. How fragile the white race is against a changing world of color. “We want our country back” is the cry of the religious right. This is our white Christian call to arms against an African American President and with the help of the media, their message becomes more and more dangerous every day. A special kind of Christianity that pushes its morals into the lives of everyone. Asking, no demanding that those that do not conform to their standards of Christianiaty are the enemy, bent on destroying the world. Their world, the one in which a woman’s right to choose, a human being’s right to deny heroic measures at the end of his life, a couples right to marry anyone they choose and mostly the right to think are considered to be unacceptable.
The Republican Party bundled together are a group with power and money behind them. Enough money to keep their rant going with the help of special interest groups. Their money buys the propaganda that party members spew out to their constituants . This is a business and it is the business of keeping the population riled up enough to fear the present government and anything they try to achieve for the benefit of the American People.This is a business, Big Business for Profit. Interestingly enough, there are still thinking Repulicans out there to whom all of this rhetoric makes little or no sense. Wanderers that don’t know what happened to their party or maybe they do and cannot accept the fact that their representatives no longer represent them, but do represent those mobs, wielding signs about Hitler, socialism, and an American President that was born in Kenya. Perhaps a little ashamed and maybe even fearful of the party that they could once call their own.
One of their greatest assets are their ability to “Smear” anyone . Suddenly a righteous person is no longer righteous, but a liar who pulled the wool over the eyes of the ever watching Christian right and will forever be known as whatever they make him to be. Using the words of Christ and corrupting them for their own benefits, they denounce those of the opposing party as philanderers or sodomizers, liars who achieved much and will never be forgiven for any reason, while in their own flock, those accused of the same issues, Drugs, women, fathering children with mistresses, stealing from the American people, they will be forgiven, or those mishaps will be forgiven because Jesus forgives. Jesus forgives them for their trespasses, no one else.
These are the people in this country that want a fight and the Republican party is more than willing to foster this kind of insanity for as long as it takes to achieve their status back. Who is running this fiasco?
It is deeper, much deeper than large corporations that have their own ideas about where this is going. They have the ability and money to fund these programs of propaganda to keep their candidates in office with huge campaign contributions. The candidates themselves need to be willing to spew forth the party line words, never differing a single one, no matter what the questions are. Key phrases to be used in any situations are thrown out to answer any questions whether they apply or not.
Who are these Special Interest Groups if not only big business whose invenstment in the status quo is obvious? They are the lunatic fringe that will jump on the violence bandwagon to achieve what they have wanted to achieve forever. Power. These are the dangerous, those whose dream is to conquer and wipe out thinking people. These are the groups that have waited for their time and their voice and now have their audience. When they use Swastikas and paint mustaches on the president and equate his programs with national socialism, they frighten the ignorant into standing behind them in a great war against the Elite. Seeing the outcome of this type of mind set does not necessitate genius. Laugh at the thought of the Sarah Palins running this country. It’s not such a far out possibility.
In their quest for power and status, The Republican party has opened “Pandora’s Box” and their ability to close it is impossible. It is up to the thinkers and the reality based to end this insanity. It is no longer a joke. The whole world is watching us.
