Turns out that wonderful patriot who gave us the War on Drugs also recruited good ole Jerry Falwell and company to give us the Pro Life movement. Anti women + anti poor = GOP WET DREAM WEDGE ISSUE.

Typically long New Yorker article but well worth the time.

The Rfucks don't have a clue about mitigating ANY issue, at this point.

 

The stimulus, a tried and true Keynesian formula for recovery, was directed to bankers with no strings attached by them...then cut short by the same. Any investment that might have resulted in long term job growth was stifled. Ask them about it now and their one word answer (typical form) is "Solyndra". Oh, that's also the one word answer for any proposal to grow the sustainable energy sector (or reduce subsidies for the fossil fuel sector), too. The stimulus also had the debt deck stacked against it...a debt created guess who's tax cuts for the rich and failed adventures abroad.

 

These fuckers haven't had a cogent answer that was even remotely in the public interest for about 40 years now. It's been all electoral politics, all the time, regardless of social cost.

The GOP lionizes Reagan...cuz they can't exactly lionize the real architect of the 'Reagan' agenda.

 

Their basic narrative is a lie, but that's the way they roll. It's all about getting elected to...to...get elected again, and fuck as many people, preferably the weakest people (cheaper and easier) over as needed in the process.

True. Dems are spineless, do nothing shitbags, and Rfucks are openly rapacious,asset stripping, non-egalitarian, wealth concentrating at the expense of the public good, violence loving shitbags.
