(750 posts)Likely what has been embedded in the system is far worse than most Americans realize. The Republican Party which is constitutionally antithetical has been flushed out. The definition of conservative does not fit at this time for those of the Republican Party. They are the party of hate.
When I listen to WIND radio or ABC radio talk show about politics, and, of course Fox News cable, yes I do listen for their lies, Limbaugh, Hannity, Ingram, Medved, O'reilly, up and down it is hate, after hate after hate spewed out, and on relentlessly. In the Congress, the Senate, Baynor, Mitch McConnell, Cantor, Lindsey Graham, Jim DeMint and more.
Sometimes I reflect about their constituents those people who elect these types into office. There is a very, very weirdness connected to all of them. From my view I cannot think that part of the country is so screwed up mentally. But I can think those Republicans are very corrupted; many in our system know it, especially our Judicial branch which turns their back to it. That is the hard part; the justice system lets the President hang out to exhaustion on his own.
President Obama needed his first four years to see who he can trust. The moment of change is painted very fearful, and likely is. But in the final hour if, and he can, Obama issues an executive order that would resolve issues in the interim to prevent any national security situation the Republicans will surely explode, foul. In one signature President Obama gave the government workers the Monday as a holiday. Imagine the power he has for the country, it is a unique power, he could commandeer whole business or industries. Banking, securities exchange, military, transportation, airlines railroads, trucking, the steel industries in the name of national security.
In a sense, saving General Motors which builds our transportation machines for the military was just such an issue totally not addressed by our mainstream media. National security was paramount at that time. President Obama secured our nation in doing so. President Obama is grayer, but he is proud, and so are we.
