(62,439 posts)yes, it's all been a work in progress to get us to this point, but I can point to one single moment that either sped things up or was the actual real cause for what we are in at the moment: the supreme court naming george w. moron* president.
that one single ruling (which was beyond unconstitutional) was accelerated the right wings program.
Without that, Gore would have been president.
And more that likely, I believe, Obama still would have been the follow up.
there would have still been a right wing movement, but I think by that point they would have been effectively been cut off at the knees.
that is why, to this day, I will never ever forgive all those justices who chose to decide to install the dimwit* as president. nor will I never forgive sandra day o'conner. she knew exactly what she was doing was wrong and still did it.
