(81,239 posts)I don't even want to think about the wreckage and other kinds of "creative destruction" they had in mind to institute on Day One.
Every word of your post is absolute gold-pressed latinum, Ineeda! We can NEVER let down our guard. I'm really sorry to have to say this, but we would do well ALWAYS to be suspicious of their motives. Unfortunately, that has to be our default position when dealing with these folks. Always suspect something first. I'm sorry - with this bunch it's Guilty-Til-Proven-Innocent. There is always some ulterior motive and for them it's always all about winning. So they can institute their reckless selfish greedy short-sighted "policies" and tear down the New Deal. Hell, they'd take us all the way back to the Bronze Age if they could, although they'd have a pretty hard time getting Pox Noise or tuning into lamebaugh if they succeeded!
They want power back. They want the White House back. And they will not stop til they win. Which is why we cannot stop, either. I, too, have been kind of on bliss-out mode since last Election Night. For me it's been quietly savoring what feels an awful lot like payback, or karma, or something, for the way we were kicked in the teeth in 2000 and 2004. The way we were kicked in the teeth about the war in Iraq. The way we were kicked in the teeth about the phony-ass WMD - that we all KNEW was ALL phony and were ignored when we tried to spread the truth.
If we want to keep them stopped, then WE can't stop for even a split-nanosecond! As Mad-Eye Moody always warned Harry Potter: "CONSTANT VIGILANCE!!!!!!" The bad guys won't stop. So we can't afford to.
