1. There's a rampant

death wish in this country. It's what elects a particularly ignorant strain of republican to office.

[WhoIsNumberNone]

3. There's a whole voting bloc whose top priority is to bring about the Rapture.

These Republicans are merely being sensitive to consumer demands.

6. I'm afraid you are correct, even to suggest only a small,

sick, confused and paranoid minority of voters.

Neither YTK nor 12-21-2012 brought the promises they'd hoped for.

8. I agree in general but add that perhaps many of the

politicians actually believe some the lunatic ideas.

[Turbineguy]

10. The fatal flaw in their thinking is

that the decision about the Rapture lies with God, not them.

Imagine St Peter having to suddenly ask millions, "What are you doing here? We weren't expecting you yet."

7. I agree with your observation. nt

4. geez!!!

Like her or not when Nancy headed the House things got done there.

5. Please DO say what is on your mind.

I'd like to know.

9. Thank you Nancy for speaking the truth.

There is more you know..

11. Many of their beliefs are outside of the mainstream.

They can't win using traditional legislative methods so they resort to making the government dysfunctional. Their goal is to bring about a crisis that will call for a "Constitutional re-do" of our government. The result of such a 're-do' would include the elimination of regulatory agencies like the EPA, and of social programs like Medicare and Social Security. I think the way the Republican Governor of Michigan dealt with the state's financial problems provides an example of their strategy. He appointed a 'czar' who had the power to make decisions that overrode those of elected officials. It had to be done because of the "crisis". The sequestration committee which was appointed also serves as another example of a method for dealing with an intractable "crisis".
