Apocalypse Now
My latest conspiracy theory is that the right wingers became impatient waiting for the Second Coming and the Apocalypse. They came to the conclusion that if they started the Tribulation Jesus would slap his forehead and say "Doh! Sorry guys, I forgot. I'll be right there."

Only half joking.

1. Headquarters of Jennifer Schilling, Democrat
burned to the ground. Part of the Wisconsin recall.

Tell me about conspiracy theories, 8 bullet suicides, and that we aren't head long into the Weimar Republic because I'd be Godwin-ing a post.

Tell me.

8. It's all terrifying.
The police state is a reality now. Tasers, rubber bullets and scary sound machines for crowd control.

The danger of small planes for anyone challenging the status quo. Brazen stolen elections.

No hope for changing the the system or a true hero emerging.

5. It's also Constitutionally legal. Scary stuff.
I believe it is serious enough to warrant a Constitutional amendment to put a stop to it.

I wonder if the red states would dare vote against it?

6. I live in a red state
in the deep south. I've lived here most of my life - my little knot of liberals can't seem to change the folks around us, but we are who we are.

Want to try being an out lesbian in the Deep South and having a fairly social life? It's anything but easy, but I hope I change people. I'm getting pretty discouraged, however, seeing this. I go off on a rant in a blue streak when I catch my parents watching FOX, but they are in their 80's and it takes a lot to clue them the hell in.

I keep trying.

4. I think you are right, I actually know a few Xtians like that, right-wingers each of
them and they are YEARNING for Armageddon. In fact when I tried to tell one of them that, while I am Christian, I do not believe Christ will return in the next year, I got an icy stare and lots of anger. She no longer "liked" me after that because I was no longer one of her tribe. in her mind I was no longer a Christian.

7. I said that all during Stupid's years in power and I'm not joking
Apparently these dangerous fools think a nuclear holocaust would be just the thing to knock Jebus off his heavenly throne and force him to come back here to finish the job.
