Thought Id check in with a quick rant from Washington. Im really getting sick of this pompous arrogant self righteous and yes racist bullshit. I’m sure we all saw it in high school too. The popular kids kicked around the unpopular kids and the unpopular kids kicked around the kids worse off than they. Everybody seems to need somebody to lord above and nobody wants to be on the bottom of the food chain. Most of the people in the Tea Party grew up secure in the knowledge that people of color were available to fill the lower echelons of the society. Even the slack-jawed, white-trash demographic had somebody to look down on. But when people of color started showing up with good jobs, masters degrees, and six-figure incomes the world was inverted. So the white folks needed to not only blame the “liberals” for their loss of status, they also desperately held to the belief that success was a birthright of the whites and by protecting the wealthy, they could preserve their eventual place in the sun. This might also explain the right-wing aversion to all things “science” and their utter disdain for foreign religions. As much as the right wing loves to beat on Islam and the Muslims of the Middle East, there are a lot of similarities. Both fear change, especially positive change, because they feel that the promotion of a better way invalidates the ways they’ve grown accustomed to. Both have misguided radical individuals willing to kill others to prevent progress from occurring and both take any perceived slight to their religion as a provocation of the highest form. In fact, with the exception of which book they believe their invisible man in the sky wrote, they’re practically the same group of people. These self-professed patriots are the cash cow of the Republican Party– because they cost nothing and don’t even get to join the club after election. Talk about a cheap date.---END RANT! If I just offended you? Dont bother telling me about it. I dont give a shit. Plus, I wont likely see it as I probably wont check in again for at least a week. Keep fighting for blue. ~Dan
