1. They want no black President.
That's the real bottom line.

8. They want no Democratic President.
True, there's a segment of racists that are focused on skin color, but I really think that the real motivation is to make sure a Democrat can't succeed in fixing what the Republican Party has broken. Sadly, polling results seem to be rewarding these scumbags for their efforts to cripple the economic recovery. There will be no recovery as long as about 50% of the electorate continue to vote against their best interests.

9. I agree with you. I thought it was racism, but they treated Clinton worse! n/t

2. They want to replace the government.
Edited on Sat Jul-30-11 10:23 AM by silverweb
Cripple government, neuter it, and essentially destroy everything but the shell/appearance. No money for anything but the military and a government puppet show.

Then a coalition of major corporations steps in with "consultants" and "managers," get put on the government payroll, and essentially take over the whole show.

They tried to do it to FDR by aborted military coup. They're trying to do it now using a different approach and they're getting much closer.

4. So then the corporations can institute slave labor, like they do in China? Great. Great future you
are giving us, teabaggers. Teahadists.

5. Pretty much.
But don't worry... they'll also provide the "company store" for essentials.

7. It scares me that you are probably right.
They want to sell off assets, like roads, and force the vast majority of the population into poverty and slave labor, no healthcare, everything shitty that happens to you is "Gawd's Will". The only meds they want anyone to have are psych drugs to mellow them out.

I think they forget what the French people did about their hopeless situation over two centuries ago.

12. It scares me, too.
But I really think that's their goal.

3. I think they believe roads, police, soldiers, etc. all come for free. That everything they
take for granted now will just magically continue.

They think the way an addict thinks or the way a two-year-old child thinks. They are not logical grown-ups at all.

6. Our elimination, as an intended result.
Edited on Sat Jul-30-11 10:29 AM by Urban Prairie
Never mind that some of, if not many of their ilk must/might also be unfortunately and unintentionally sacrificed, which would be of course, very regrettable, but necessary. But on the positive side they will be remembered as martyred patriots, who made the ultimate sacrifice in the process of taking their country back, to its rightful owners.

10. A return to the Depression Era when exposure and mal-nutrition were
the number cause of senior death.

11. They think they are being told what to do by government, but
really in an ordinary life, how much does the government really intrude? They blame all their problems on the government, because they don't want to blame themselves. Just looking at that Kribbe guy last night on Bill Maher, tells me he leads a very lonely dysfunctional life.
