Gopmob

The lunatic fringe is on the loose. And McBush is going to need every single one of them at the polls. They are his only hope. They, along with the usual voter suppression, and all the sub rosa appeals to fear, racism, and resentment. It’s going to be an ugly month. The “silent majority,” as Nixon called them, of cretins, crackers, & paranoiacs. Palin is feeding them the red meat of lies they need to grovel at their master’s feet. Gun-toting, Bible-misunderstanding, plastic-fetus-doll-clutching. Pallid as zombies and just as dead. Hollow-eyed religious psychos. Gaunt or fat, a people of surprising ugliness, for their debasement and depravity is written all over them. An incipiently fascist mob, there to be exploited. And the Republicans, who’ve based a generation of power on them, are only too eager to do so.
