Mike Pence didn't just grow out of the ground to become governor. He was ELECTED.

Don't like the shit that's going down in Indiana, and now Arkansas? And the other states where this clearly strategist-instigated RFRA shit is now the law? You can blame the Pences of the world if you wish, but that's kind of the wrong focus, I think. He's doing what he was elected to do. While there is local backlash in Indianapolis, the rest of the state is more quiet.

You know. The Dumbfuckistanian precincts.

I am not hopeful that our country is headed in the right direction. The Dumbfuck Denizens are stronger than ever, it seems. It is no accident that in Indiana and Arkansas, it is Big Bidniss that got things somewhat turned around. Not good people of good intent. Had Walmart - WALMART, fer krissakes!! - not put some pressure on Asa, the law enacted by the people elected by Arkansas' Dumbfuck Nationals would be the local law of that land. Were it not for similar pressure in Indiana, there is simply no way on Dog's Green Earth that Pence would have ordered the Indiana legislature to give him a Do Over.

The natives of Dumbfuckistan are howling right now. An angry beast, they are. Hungry for more. Don't discount Cruz, or Paul, or Rubio, or whatever other kooks decide to run. They could, indeed, get elected.

The "silent majority" of Indiana is just sitting back, letting "not real America" take shots at them and their "values" and they'll just go vote for the asshole again, and with fucking pride.

and there isn't a silent majority of teahadists sitting around here. The teahad was anything but silent. They took to the streets and got to the polls, with a bit of help suppressing dem voters and a fraction of election theft, they control the entire system by a swing of 2-3% of the vote.

The thing people don't realize about them is THEY are the source of obstruction and non-compromise when they are in minorities and then they become the ramrod shoving regression and oppression down the nation;s throat
