The overthrow of FDR and the Permanent Republican Majority

[hedgehog]

There have been multiple postings in recent weeks about Prescott Bush's connection to a plot to overthrow FDR. Ancient history, right? Except that the plan for a Permanent Republican Majority is not based on getting people to vote Republican. It's based on making it impossible to vote Democratic. It involves disenfranchising voters and jailing Democratic candidates. The re-districting in Texas was one of the more benign aspects of this plot. This is what the firing of the US Attorneys is really about. Those who weren't willing to go along with the plan were ousted.

1. More than one way to skin a cat and without a coupe d'etat.

2. It goes one step further:

hollowing out the Democratic party, with "New Democrats" gradually taking the place of Democrats, or at least enough DINOs to skew things.
Trojan horse strategy, and it's very nearly succeeded. :(
