Repost; I read this and I pretty much feel the same way as writer.
I've been listening to Republicans complaining about the election and the twists and turns it's taken. Their whining has reached epic proportions and of course the head whiner is none other than "Rush"
"How dare those people demand they be given their voting rights ...
This isn't about the will of the people, it's about the rule of law ...
The Democrats are playing politics and misrepresenting the facts"
Wah, wah, wah!
Now anyone who believes that, if the shoe were on the other foot, that Rush and his mindless minion "W" and the conservative right would not be screaming to high heaven (one that many of the rest of us are not welcome in, by the way) is either a fool or a liar!
I've listened to the proposal that the evil Democrats are using the Republicans' "own virtue against them." I know how hard this is to believe but they are actually saying that.
This is the same group of people who brought us Iran-Contra, the lie about the "welfare queen" and Richard Nixon's Watergate to name a few.
"W" himself lied about his record in Texas, his repeated failures as a businessman, his drug use, arrest record and military service.
Rush, during the primary told his followers that "W" "would have to lie and pretend to be a moderate in order to win the election" and that Rush's zombies need not panic that someone who was indeed a "compassionate conservative" might actually get elected.
I just hope that people will not be fooled by the propaganda of Rush and the Republicans.
If vote fraud took place in Florida, if black voters were discriminated against and if errors were made intentionally or not, a full accounting needs to be made. If necessary a new election needs to be held.
"W" nor Al Gore should be allowed into the White House simply because it's convenient and people like Limbaugh have three to six hours a day to advocate for his "friend" G.W. Bush! |
