Oooooh, I see. I don’t have a right to express my opinion nor vote my conscience? I’m supposed to vote for and support whomever the gop-e and bert designate as being good for America? And you call me the tyrant? And you call me a fool?

Someone who continues to do the same thing over and over, without any appreciable progress may not be insane, but foolish is definitely on the table.

Frankly bert, I believe your approach has been disastrous for America. I used to believe as you do, and I marched in step - but I am convinced that all we did was encourage the arrogance of the gop-e. in that arrogance, they gave us two candidates that were unable or unwilling to defeat an inexperienced demagogue. So I’ve changed my ways. If you want 8 more years like the last 8 - well then, just keep on doing what you’ve been doing.

What does “Republicans elected the individuals (I) noted” matter? They were all either lousy candidates, immoral or unethical. Are you saying that if Republicans elect them, then they are above reproach or criticism? You can try that on elsewhere. I will criticize whom I please, and when they pull stunts like Hastert or Cochran or Haley Barbour - I will call them immoral, unethical and criminal.

I notice you don’t offer any defense of their candidacies or their behavior - you only bleat that “Republicans elected” them, and they are not democrats. They may not be democrats, but they act too much like them politically and ethically for my liking.

McCain wouldn’t attack Obama where he was vulnerable, neither would Mitt. Mitt had him on the ropes after the 1st debate, then he let up on the second. Those two campaigns gave us 8 years of Obama - and those two candidates were given to us by the gop-e. The same bunch that supported and directed the Thad Cochran disgrace, that mock and denigrate Ted Cruz, that run like little school girls every time, rather than stand for what is good and right for America....and you want me to support that bunch? And furthermore, you lecture me on what is good for America????? And doing all of that, you call me the fool??

You astound me!

Please, take a crack at defending the actions of the gop-e for the last 16 years. Don’t blather about “Republicans elected...”, or “what’s good (in your opinion) for America”, and don’t pretend that you understand what I don’t (you don’t have the horsepower to pull that load). Just tell me what the gop-e has done to deserve my support?

Backing off on campaigns and allowing Obama to win?

Hastert featherbedding his bank account?

Encouraging dems to illegally vote for Thad Cochran to keep his pork-barrelling ass in congress?

Or was it refusing to stand with Ted Cruz, but bad-mouthing him in public?

Maybe it was McConnell saying he was going to crush the Tea Party?

Or was there something else they did that has been so great for America?

Please - tell me what they’ve done to earn my support - and if you can’t do that, don’t say anymore, OK?
