We May Not Be In A Civil War But It Sure Feels Like One W/ All The Vile And Vomit On Hate Media

What little I have heard on RW media nothing but racist, hatred, vitriol and vomit. Feel like you are in the middle in Northern Ireland during the height of the fighting between the Protestants and Catholics except it is only verbal now.. The RW is going hysterical and berzerk with anger. And I believe it will be as bad as it was with Vietnam and we are only at step one in the process. None of the budgets have been passed. And it looks like the GOP will never give up this quest until Obama surrenders.

And it looks the the House has dug in and passed the same bill all over again. Looks more like a drunken brawl.

Oct 2013

They have some control of media mainly Fox News and now their other plants can be activated.
They have hostages taken, unemployed Federal workers who may lose a paycheck (big deal for those who live paycheck to paycheck).
They are controlling people in their own party with threats and a minority of that party are using threats of political elimination.
They are in the process of trying to isolate other branches of Government.
They threaten to crash the American and world economy if for no other reason because they can.
They are using tactics that have not been tried before in destroying the financial obligations of government in de-funding a law passed by congress for purely political advantage.
Missing is the elimination of command and centers but they have eliminated and curtailed opposition in the House of Representatives.

All opposition has been clearly warned. Do what they say or worse will happen soon.
