is exactly who we were looking at there at the RNC. Someone downthread said that they are like a virus and THAT is exactly true.

As you said, cognoscere, we are handicapped by the instinct to analyze and describe and think and test. I don't know what to do about that, because it's like anti-matter to that audience we watched last night.

I'm sad to say that I know what you say about eating "shit" IS true, because I have seen it, up close and personal. Self-congratulatory and heartless mindlessness spawns desperate illusions amongst those in need, those who find no thanks, no human reward, no congratulation wherever they go can and do damn themselves to lives of "shit" sandwiches, because they mistakenly "think" that it's that or nothing.
