"the problem right now is the media won't even expose the corruption of the Dems in Congress, most elites think all this is just a head game, don't even think of the consequence of this ... welcome to Socialism ..."

the republicans had FULL CONTROL of congress for 6 years. oftehn they didn't even consult dems on legislation. they rubber stamped everything that came out of the white house. remember, never a single veto. getting all indignant about democrats now is just the rattling of your own cognitive dissonance. what you're seeing now is the consequence of an unchecked executive.

oh, and all the socialism right now is coming from appointees of that executive. well, except that socialists generally nationalize profitable companies. gee, palin says "everyone wants the gov to get out of their way" but all i see is everyone wanting the government to take over the banks and intermediate all transactions.

what the bush years taught us is something simple: rabble rousing speeches, when writ large as government policy, is disasterous. tactics like using gay marriage to try to sell social security privatization is just bad politics.
