WJ People need to shut up and let this government run this war
This was from a republican female that didn't mind if the government spies, steals, torture, corrupt, break laws and abuse the constitution. Thank you lady from the other world.

1. If people didn't have attitudes like this, fascism wouldn't be possible
It's up to us to make sure it doesn't happen.

3. They don't think that way..
... they feel that way. Thinking is too hard for them.

4. You can smell the fear on these people.
They are the ones that * and Cheney have scared senseless. The ones that are convinced that a dirty terraist is hiding behind the shrubbery in their front yard just waiting for them. to come out of the house.

8. Master propagandists - like they accuse others of
They are the glue that fastens the right wing to the population at large. It's questionable whether or not they would have any kind of movement without these shills.

6. Scared Children
Some people thrive on fear...they need a "certain" world and those who provide that certainty. If it means spying and torturing...well, so it goes. These are the most selfish and ignorant people in the country and, as we've seen in the GOOP primaries, are the base of that corrupt and inept party.

These people need boogie men, straw men and talking points to make sure their world remains "certain" and anyone who thinks or says different is "the enemy"...thus most of the sane and logical world.

9. Yes, very "black and white - good and evil" world views
They do crave that simplicity.

10. "THIS" Government ??
NO doubt quite a transformation for this lass who was a virulent anti-government type in the 90's who didn't want "THAT" government involved in anything; heaven forbid spying on her or torture or fucking with the constitution. That would have been horrible "THEN."

12. Guess she never read the Federalist Papers or any Am. History
It is like some of these people never even heard of those 'crazy' men who just did not like old King George. She must be from the Royalist Party. Willy would have loved her.
