What exactly did you expect from SC, they have more wingnuts per square mile that one would imagine to be humanly possible.

Oh, I know. But it's not just SC, Rob. And I Just thought the article was a good indicator of the current trend. This guy seems like a decent human being---and THAT can't be had with todays far right. The Beer Hall Putcsh is on and the angry masses are on the march. Problem is; Are things really as bad as the Weimar Republic? No, not by a long shot. We have serious problems, true. But anything bad enough to warrant the reaction we're seeing? IMO? Nope.

Thanks, Glenn.

According to this morning's paper the latest polls show both Sista Sarah and the Tea Party folks losing favour with independent voters as well as others. About the only ones holding them in any regard are Republicans, and they are not exactly overjoyed.

P T Barnum was right " You can fool all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time."

Did you see that Ditz on the t.v. the other day with both crib notes on her hand (again) and cheat sheets on the desk in front of her? And she STILL had nothing but half-assed sloganistic answers for every question.

And they were throwing softballs to her - I wouldn't be surprised if she had them in advance. She just needed the notes because she didn't have time to memorize the script.
