They are mad as hell, and they’re not going to take Federal Government benefits anymore! With the exception of Medicaid and Medicare, mind you. Those two benefits are fine – just don’t increase the funding. The Republicans just want their Medicaid and Medicare without improvements and be left alone, lest we have a nanny state government with Hitler-esque socialized Obamacare.
Don’t even try to understand the GOP’s twisted logic. All the vitriol and insults they hurl in public, actually describe themselves. What kind of schizoid world do they live in, anyway? It would make more sense if Republicans would just yell into a mirror at themselves!
The new GOP has molded itself into the Party Of Hate. Even their Republican legislators – who are paid by the Federal government – hate the Federal Government’s intrusion of exercising the Constitution and Bill of Rights. They’ll deny it of course, and continue with their own twisted reasoning to tweak the Constitution for their own self-serving agenda.
And what is the Republican agenda? It is simply, “Me first, you second”. It applies within and without the party, although half of them don’t see that it exists within the GOP.
The two-tier party is exactly why the GOP wants the government to leave them alone. It spoils their practice of manipulation. The top-tier of the GOP – big money like health insurers, corporations, oil companies and wealthy douche bags like Beck and Limbaugh – can easily manipulate the bottom-tier GOP members and the hate-mongering Tea Partiers. The bottom-tier Tea Partiers are so blinded by hate, the top-tier Big Money Republicans easily pull the strings of Tea Partiers like puppet masters.
Thus, what the new GOP really wants is the freedom to use people – mainly their own – to carry out the wealthy top-tier Republican’s agenda. Shhh, don’t let the bottom-tier know or – heaven forbid! – they might start thinking instead of focusing on their hate-mongering. Top-tier Big Money Republicans would not want the bottom-tier Tea Partiers to know what’s really going on. Certainly not, because right now, all they need to do is feed the lower-tier Tea Partiers the hate they crave, they eat it up and go out to do the dirty work. Both tiers end up feeling content, and it’s one big, happy Grand Old Party. It is quite an incestuous relationship really, when you think about it.
So now, can anyone tell me how the GOP’s staunch Christian values play into all of this?

Hate is not a Republican thing only. That being said, because they have a reputation of being the party that says “no” to entitlements they are perceived as being racists, etc. Therefore, they have an obligation to go out of their way to weed out the vocal haters in their midsts. They have done a horrible job of it.
Hey there! Leaders of the GOP do little to discourage their members from toning down the vitriol and curbing unruly behavior. They are legislators, they should behave like statesmen &stateswomen and lead. Allowing members to get out of hand could end up with someone hurt or worse. This is inexcusable.
Appreciate your comment! :0)
I love how you break it down and make it informative and entertaining for the average person. You go, Reiko!
Thanks much George; appreciate it! :0)
I keep thinking that there must be right guys who know they are wrong, but stick with the right of opposing everything from the left.
