About 20 years ago, I wrote in an opinion piece for an online magazine: “Liberals are the self-righteous, led by the self-important, for the benefit of the self-interested.” I still believe this to be true. But I also believe: Republicans are the complacent, led by the content, for the benefit of those concerned only about taxes.
As a case in point, I would like to present Critical Race Theory, transsexuality, and the Loudoun County (Va.) School Board. Until these issues received heightened attention recently, the parents of the Loudoun County School District were content to elect politically and socially liberal extremists to the school board. The parents were not concerned about the social engineering that was occurring. They were not concerned about the indoctrination their kids were receiving in school. They were not concerned about the perversion of history, language, mathematics, and science that was being taught.
They were more interested in the NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL or the latest Netflix binge movie than what their kids were learning in school. They voted for the school board candidates they were told to vote for by local dignitaries or they did not vote at all.
The same is true for those in the cities run by Democrats. These cities where crime rates are soaring, where the number of police officers are plummeting, and where the prosecution of criminals is decreasing have become uninhabitable by the average person. Why? Because of the liberals who were elected by the citizens.

Flimsey Grahamnesty is the poster child for how stupid Republican voters are.
After voting for amnesty and the resultant permanent Democrat majority THREE times, the voters of SC have re-elected him TWICE more.
Most voters are uninformed and don’t make the effort to become informed.
This author misses one particularly important factor. Most people aren’t all that smart and everybody has a vote.
People are clever, but most can’t do the math to predict where the bullet they fired will land.
America as founded had checks to keep this somewhat in check.
Those checks were removed, particularly the 16th and 17th amendments. Put us where we are at now.
The mob has figured out they can tax and therefore control.
Cultural rot has been a problem throughout history so there is nothing new there, but what is new in American, is the rot can control the producers.
History will never record what happened, the rot is too stupid to write it down.
There aren’t any Liberals left in the Democrat party..
The different factions in the Democrat party have melted down to rally around one cause…..
Money.
They don’t dream of toiling in the hot sun pulling turnips at a turnip commune.
They dream of sitting in a wicker chair on the patio of their condo in Kauai drinking Mai Tais and eating lobster.
South Carolina has open primaries. Lots of leftists cross over to vote for lindsey because they know hes a closet dem/homo
“And he is us”
There are no republicans. Are there?
McConnell? He’s the head of senate republicans. Head of the party. He’s not a republican. He’s a democrat. Not even a democrat. An assistant democrat.
McCarthy is in charge of republicans in the House. He does nothing for republicans.
Republican voters have their votes cancelled at will. If they are in a district the democrats need it doesn’t matter how they vote.
Pogo.
