And another thing while I’m in rant mode! ;)
There are currently a handful of people running around FR (and other sites) making every excuse you can imagine about Bohner/the GOP and how they didn’t really cave on the Fiscal cliff deal.
It’s the media’s fault, it’s all a lie to slander him, it’s any of a million provably BS excuses. Yet they are repeated ad nausem. And these same posters go into full defense of the GOP’s actions mode when abandoning the GOP gets mentioned.
Now is that not battered wife/Stockholm syndrome in technicolor glory?
Is that not magical thinking willfully undertaken?
When people in the Mid East act to empower the Muslim Brotherhood/jihadis while claiming they want to be free et all, is it logically any different from a Freeper acting as a firewall for a change in their situation? Working at cross purposes? I think that’s pretty apparent to anyone who is NOT willing to lie to themselves.
So again, if people do not want a thing, they should not empower a thing. Pretty simple math. Want to be rid of oppression and corruption? Do not work in any way to support it. Do not make excuses and rationalizations for it.
And unfortunately, I don’t believe there are enough people left on the earth to do it. Because the provable majority, lib, Muslim and yes ‘Conservative’ alike, ENJOY the chains that bind them.

Thank You Norm. You typed and said what needed saying. If you are not on target, I will be surprised. Seldom surprised anymore, regrettably. Good to Great Rant.
You are exactly right in both of your postings. The latter post (this one) brings to light the typical Republican voter who will shun the need to immediately form a Third party to actually represent conservatives and protect the Constitution.
Typical “zombie” Republican voters are normally “go along to get along” people who support a “go along to get along” Republican party.
It’s a lose-lose situation. With the democrats we are driving a car at 90 mph headed for a communist wall; with the Republicans we are in a car doing 85 mph headed for the same wall.
People had better wake up and slam on the breaks NOW!
