We're dealing with crazy people in this country |

And in politics, crazy is the norm.

RW media is inciting people - they have created this mess.
I live in a small town where you are known by EVERYTHING you do. When a debate was held for congressional position - the TBer incitied his supporters and they behved horribly. One woman lost her marbles and would not stop yelling. Something is driving these people to abandon social norms and feel proud of it. Beck, Limbaugh, O'Reilly et al.

3. It's always been crazy. You think it was smooth saling to pass Civil Rights? |

No. It was always a nutty place, the world of American politics.

Seems like the crazier they are the better the masses like them. I wonder why that is happening. Crazy puts sane people off, we tend to leave them to their craziness and then they get bolder.
I dunno....is it desperation? :shrug:

5. And I think it comes down to the constant drum beat |
|
of the right wing nutso on the republican corporate owned media. The ones who are the goofiest the hateful and most violent are products of years of listening to Rush and fox. And anybody that does not believe that propaganda does not work look at Germany -- which Murdoch and Ailes are imitating.
