and it's wealthy funders.
I wont even TRY to list all the reasons for my saying this, but if some other Country or entity were to spend as much time and money trying to destroy this Country, they'd be attacked.
Elected offcials openly disregarding the will of the people in favor of their benefactors
So called "Justices" giving control to our Democracy w/ laws like Citizens United.
Voter suppression
Stolen elections through fraud and other means
Sedition
Propaganda (FOX)
Fomenting dissention between citizens
Lies

Deception

And on and on and on.
Any serious person that's read at least the minimal amount of history knows, this is exactly the climate Hitler help create in the 1930's.
This is not the America that I and others fought and died for, and somehow, some way it's GOT to be corrected. The Civil War is over. The traitors lost, it's time they recognize this and accept w/ grace the amnesty and forgiveness they have abused for 125 + years.
And the wealthy need to remember Louis XVl .

(81 posts)are a threat to the entire world...the radical austerity measures, privatization of public services and war on the poor and the middle class in Europe is just what the Republicans want...what's even more worrying is their anti intellectualism and disdain for science, education and anything related to critical thinking, that seems to have widespread support. The tables have completely reversed...what was once the party of Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt has now assumed the same discourse that the Dixiecrats, Throm Sturmond and George Wallace have (unfortunately) tried to push within the Democratic party decades ago.

(30,058 posts)Their main issue is abortion and though they vote against themselves on all other issues this the devifing factor. I have also observed the Dixiecrats move over. Now they are radical and single issue.
I would like to add, if Obama was runni g as a republican and Romney was running as a Democrat I would jump ship and vote for the republican.
Democrats must vote everytime in order to take out the trash.

(81 posts)there's the ultra conservative, neoliberal Republican Party and the Democratic Party which encompasses everyone else...and that's just too much for one party to handle - the social democrats and democratic socialists, the social liberals, the centrists, the new democrats etc.

(18,641 posts)Though when Republicans accuse Democrats of something, 90% of the time it means they are guilty of the crime themselves and are trying to confuse the issue.
This projection tactic is one they use constantly.
