That's the question I have always had in all of this. Even if every single one of these points is eventually proved true beyond doubt, would anyone in a position to do anything really take any action? I kind of doubt it. My guess is that most will just shrug their shoulders as if to say, well, that's the way that one went, the election is over, and kind of walk away mumbling. Sure, a few brave, lonely souls (i.e., Arpaio, some on FR, and others) will continue to cry in the wilderness, file lawsuits that the courts will toss out (the courts don't exist to dispense justice in this country anymore), and preach to the choir. But I have a feeling the majority of the sheeple, as they always do, will let their eyes glaze over, and go back to a beer by the TV. We talk a lot on FR about torches and pitchforks and marching on the Capitol, but, seriously, how many out there really think this will happen? Unless it really hits home personally, most people are inclined to continue to live their quiet lives, slave away at their jobs, raise their kids, and try to keep a low profile. They're not cowards, just incapable of seeing any real, practical way out of the dilemma.

That's it, pretty much in a nutshell. I can't tell you how frustrating it is. People I think are informed, intelligent people who's eyes just glaze over when you try to discuss this type of stuff. No one cares, there's not a dam thing you can do about it, so why not grab another beer? Sad.

It is terribly frustrating and disappointing. I can't tell you how many times I've wanted to grab one of these Obamaphiliac lotus-eaters by the scruff of the neck and shake the stuffing out of them. Can't they see what is happening here? We have a likely pretender to the presidency running this country into bankruptcy, ruining the labor and sweat and blood of a dozen or so generations before us who built this country, yet if you believe the polls close to half the sheeple approve of what he's doing, and 70-80% approve of the bum personally. I have people tell me all the time “I like Obama”, and when I ask them why, what do you like about him, what has he done that you like, all they do is glaze over and mumble something about how they “like him”. Why, why, why? I never get an answer. It's like Idiocracy come to life.
