Poll question: Republicans have been in charge of everything for a while
I remember back in the day when they used to bitch and moan from the peanut gallery about how much they would change things for the better if they were in charge.

Well, they got in charge, and things did change.... For the WORSE!!!

Obviously, these assholes can't govern.


But, I wonder... Why aren't they happy?

They seem more pissed off now, than ever. Why is that?

Maybe you know.

2. What they want is not what WE need
and they don't know how to process that realization. Quite like a child having a tantrum.

3. While I was oh so tempted by "the bitch set them up" - I saw the tape
I had to go with "other"

They are just continuing to blame the other guy while they rape the republic. It keeps progressives in defensive mode, at least I'm pretty sure that's the intent, and deflects somewhat from their true intentions. They never wanted to make things better for us. Their base is pretty happy ATM from what I can see, though.

4. They've discovered that resources are finite...
and they aren't the 'baddest kids on the block'.

This realization is what makes all spoiled bullies more angry and bitter.

5. No matter how much they have, they never have enough
This is the driving force behind everything they do. They always operate out of fear and consciousness of what they lack...even when they 'have it all.'

No matter how much they control
No matter how much booty they have in their counting house
No matter how much they leech out of others
No matter how much they are stroked by underlings
No matter how much they reconfigure reality

They will never, ever be satisfied in this lifetime.

These are terminally unhappy individuals who need a constant supply of their drugs--exploitation, domination, acquisition. They are addicts, addicted to More. Always empty, they are never fulfilled.
They do not know happiness.

6. You, my friend have given the best answer yet

Republicanism in this country... Nay, this world, is like some insatiable behemoth.

No matter whatever you toss down it's gaping maw, its never enough.

They will never give up eating up our revenue, Constitution or piece of the pie.

I don't think that their symbol, the elephant, came by accident... As it is, by sheer weight and volume, the most prolific land based eating machine on the face of the Earth.

Greed is their motto.
