The lynch mob mentality of the Repuglican Dominion

Wow, while watching the news today, I had a major realization about Pugs and the simplicity of the psy-ops they employ. Repugs have ONE extremely effective tactic: Create and encourage vile hatred towards Democrats at any expense. Repugs use emotional buttons with every chance they get (homosexuality, terror, danger to your children, survival of family values, the list goes on and on -- making the public so damn mad or disgusted that all they can do is hate or react in fear. Every tactic is fair game. Lie, cheat, cajole, you name it.

Reason is then thrown out the window. If you get someone mad enough or frightened enough, they ignore reason and go with the emotion. Brainwashing, pure and simple. They need to make the public hate or fear. Generate ENOUGH hate, and they will totally ignore all reason... yep... just like a lynch mob. Then they try to convince you that they are the guys with the "white hats" who will rescue you. Then they have you eating out of the palm of their hand. And they are masters at it.

On edit, I should explain that I am not pointing my finger at the little guy pug who is just following along for the ride. I'm talking about the "brains" behind the outfit.
