WILL THE REPUBLICANS REPUDIATE THEM ONCE AND FOR ALL?
We are all waiting on the edge of our seats for that answer. The more traditional influential Republicans had relinquished their influence and empowered the Teabaggers who are arguably the least educated, the least informed and competent group of people that ever got together for a common purpose.
It is an ideological fight, one that we thought we fought fifty years ago and was put to bed. Does the right of ownership of an establishment gives you the implicit alternative to refuse service to anyone you deem unworthy or because it is a public establishment do you have that right at all? Is America a Christian nation or a secular democracy? This is a culture war indeed and it will determine in the next elections what kind of America we are and want to be.
Are we going to tolerate the infusion of unlimited funds under the cloak of anonymity to political campaigns? Is this Citizens United Supreme Court decision the nail in the coffin of democracy? Can we afford to have the Koch brothers pull the strings of those Teabagger puppets?
These are very important questions that delineate the real underlying currents of what is motivating some of these Tea Bag wing-nuts. Not all are that way but there are far too many that resent the Civil Rights Legislation four decades ago and see it as another Federal Government intrusion and a way of imposing the will of the Federal Government on the individual States. Teabaggers really loath the Civil Rights movement and the gains Blacks made with Martin Luther King leading the movement. Ironically, these very same racist extremists think it appropriate for the government to come into our bedrooms, to control women’s reproductive organs and to criminalize something that God created and Christ never even uttered a word against: homosexuality.
Although integrating the nation's schools was the first priority of the civil rights movement, the denial of equal access to public accommodations affected all blacks, not just students. Blacks could not use restaurants, bathrooms, water fountains, public parks, beaches, or swimming pools used by whites. They had to use separate entrances to doctor's offices and sit in separate waiting rooms. They could only sit in the balcony or in other designated areas of theaters. They had to ride at the back of streetcars and buses; and a lot of these Teabaggers are fine with that and would like to return to those idyllic days mostly because they are rabid racists.
These elections will also determine whether America will become a theocracy and violate the very principals our Founding Fathers laid down for us: that of the SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE.
And you want us to vote Republican again? Vote for Republicans who are not just proposing a re-enactment of George W. Bush’s economic policies but bring them back on steroids..
