Rabid rodents of the right will get their impeachment

[Cyrano]

Your average, everyday Republicans consist of a broad range of people who are individually motivated by one or more traits such as greed, hatred, fear, jealousy, paranoia, bigotry, religious zealotry and more. There’s nothing new here. This has been the makeup of the Republican Party for decades.

Teabaggers, on the other hand, believe that a society’s political and social institutions are so bad that they need to be destroyed. That’s called nihilism. And although baggers are the rabid fringe of the party, they call the tune and the “average, everyday Republicans” mentioned above, dance to it. The cliché that “they have lost control of the monster they created” is absolutely true. And that monster is very busy devouring them (and all the rest of us).

For every bagger dunce like Sarah Palin and Louis Gohmert, there’s an evil “genius” like Ted Cruz who actually believes he can harness and direct the pitchforks and torches mob. But even evil geniuses have blind spots. There aren’t enough baggers to get him to the White House.

Now about impeachment. The baggers will settle for nothing less. And, as we’ve seen over the past few years, what the baggers want, the baggers get. Your “average, everyday Republicans” can build a temporary dam, but they can’t hold back the flood. Impeachment is “on the table” and on the way. It may come before or after this year’s elections, but it’s coming.

We’d all like to think that impeaching Obama would destroy the Republican Party. Dream on. They impeached Clinton and lost some seats in the midterm elections. But they’re still here. And the baggers have made them more unhinged than ever.

So here’s the question. Where’s the Pied Piper who’s going to rid us of the rodents?

And here’s the answer. That “savior” is not a Democrat on a white horse. It is the mainstream media and their corporate masters. Yes, those masters are driven by insatiable greed. But they still need a somewhat functioning government in order to continue their looting binge. Anarchy is not a good environment for plutocrats. They'll let the baggers run amok for a while longer, but they really want the White House in 2016 or, 2020. It will cement their rule.

I find it somewhat ironic that the only ones who can “save” us are the ones who are raping us. Many probably believe that America’s evolving demographics will bring about change. I’m skeptical about that because in most of the plutocracies and tyrannies in the world, the vast majority is ruled by a small minority that controls all the levers of power.

In the meantime, get your popcorn and settle in for “The Impeachment Show.”

1. I hold no hope for a better MSM

Their owners are becoming just as rabid as the baggers. Having a frightening extremist RW works really well for them, because the baggers can be induced to support any cause the rich want, and will give whatever dimes they have left to their bagger politicians or the gun and ammo industry. Meanwhile sane people are scared into supporting whatever sorta reasonable Pol is put in front of them, and likewise donate more than they would otherwise just to try and keep the insane ones from taking over everything. Scared and angry people are easily manipulated, and that is the essential goal of the media and their masters.

3. I go along with much of what you say,

however, the baggers are blocking the road to the White House. While the plutocrats, with their control of the msm, can continue to pillage and plunder America, they can't cement their control until they own the Oval Office. No Dem president is ever going to allow the total removal of government regulations.

No oligarch in history has ever been within reach of owning everything there is to own. The current crop of sociopaths can see their goal on the horizon. But first, the teabaggers will have to go.

2. I am in complete agreement with the first part of your assessment......

The GOP has, at least as long as I can remember, appealed, attracted, and catered to some of the darker parts of human nature.
This is their 'base' rather than their fringe.
I disagree that corporate media will be of any help but will continue to encourage the decline.
It serves their porpoises.

We often marvel how the rank and file Teapublican will consistently vote against their best interests.
It is in part because corporate media spurs on the basic tenets of greed, fear and hate.

Why would anyone support Right to Work for less laws if you were not somehow made to feel that you would do better in such an environment.
Why would you continue to commit a good portion of you're resources to the M.I.C and continue to wreak world mayhem if you weren't constantly reminded to fear those who do not look or speak like you.
Why would you begrudge medical assistance or food for that matter if you were not lead to believe that anyone receiving help is too irresponsible to provide for themselves. You need to remember your hatred for those 47% that are takers.

Just as trash talk radio provokes violence by use of a gun, or a car or a brick or a stick, M$M feeds the greed, fear and hate reflex.

Lower wages, less services, desperation equal higher profits.

4. As I've said above,

most of the msm is owned and controlled by the plutocrats. They will never be able to achieve the White House while the crazies are in full howl.

Perhaps, once they have their puppet in the Oval Office, the baggers could be resurrected and turned loose. But uncontrolled, they're an impediment.

5. Actually, rodents almost never get rabies.
