The other night I had a dream. In it, the Republican party had gone so far to the right, that the American people rose up and dethroned them. I was part of the revolution in it and was heading off to war. Nothing ever happened in it, no violence was seen, but the fact that it was eerily possible, made me even more nervous that this scenario was actually going to occur.
Today, it seems very likely that this dream may not be that far off. Polls not conducted by Fox or right right idiots who skewer data, all say that around 70% of the country say the GOP is acting like spoiled children, and no poll anywhere has the majority of blame going to Obama. Congressional Democrats, who barely register for blame at all in most polls, must be licking their chops at the fact that the Republicans are committing hari kari and they don't have to lift a finger to help it along. Any chance of the GOP reclaiming the Senate may go down with the rest of the country if the terrorists known as the Tea Party gets their way.
Yeah, I said it. The Tea Party is a terrorist group. They have infiltrated high levels of government to achieve rapid wealth loss from the middle class and poor, are establishing a fascist state based on religious nonsense, and are literally killing this country from there rampant stupidity. They have done more damage to this nation than all the other evil groups of the world combined. They define the word.
Don't believe me. The Tea Party is behind this whole STOP OBAMACARE garbage and, because of it, stock markets planet wide are nose diving today. Why you ask? Because as the markets are all connected, everyone is panicking over what may or may not happen. Speculation is killing the world economy, and the GOP doesn't care. They are committing dangerous acts of treason and we are all paying for it.
John Boehner actually tried to drag this whole fiasco for another week with a temporary plan for another week of debate which the Senate thankfully rejected. You do not negotiate with terrorists. And if we have to send this whole country into a tailspin to do just that, so be it. Yesterday, some House Republicans stood in front of the Capital building and dressed down the Democrats for daring to say NO. It was an embarrassing, empty platitude of worthlessness. And the polls all say these idiots are going to pay and pay dearly by 2014.
That is assuming we even get that far. Angry groups are already protesting outside some Republican organizations nationwide today, including right here in Boston. If these uber-idiots are dumb enough to drag this out, or worse, let the government default on loans, elections may the last thing they'll need to worry about. History shows when you push people to far, they will react violently, just like the revolutions of France or the US. The Republicans are straddling that edge dangerously at this point. If people go broke because of their stupidity, statistics state that a few of those people are going to get their many, many guns and explain how unhappy they are with them. I do not want that, no matter how much I hate them. But it will happen if they keep up this charade.
Give in Republicans on the budget and funding the government. You've lost. Deal with it. If it continues, considering just how angry the public is right now, if they laser focus that hostility on you, the elections of 2014 will be the least of your problems. You are facing extinction. Evolve or die goes the saying, but look who I'm talking to: the anti-science party. Good luck, guys. You're going to need it.
