It’s pretty obvious that, with movements to accept gay marraiges, and the legalization of pot in a couple of states, the nation has culturally entered a period of a lurch to the left, driven by the same forces that produced a similar result in the 1930′s (FDR). As many on the Left had to endure the torment of the Reagans and Bushes while everyone in America believed they could get rich, now the Right may have to endure a decade or more of left-ish politics. Will they endure it with grace and dignity? Probably not.
Granted, Obama is not FDR. Nonetheless, the Republicans, suffering from shock, will be very still for a while. But they hate Obama so much, we shouldn’t be surprised if they try to leverage the Benghazi thing into an impeachment attempt, once they recover from their current faint and get off the floor.

“I’m trialling Max’s new weight loss program”
“By sitting on the couch watching politicians?”
“Yes, they scare the sh*t out of me. My preferred weight loss trainer is Hank Paulson, though I am deviating from the official ‘book’ so to speak, I feel that this will get me the results I want the fastest.”

who f###cking really cares about stuff like this actually, in the face of global meltdown and fiscal cliffs all over the place ??????
the strictly implemented, brainwashed “political correctness” over decades, in times of borrowed growth and spending .. and high life etc… has made people completely braindead for anything else! They just didn´t think or care! Issues like “gay marriage” are nothing but a big DISTRACTION from anything else, the REAL issues!!!! .. to be fought out!
You might call it a lurch to the left, yeah in profane average terms, that might be true, but only because we´re pushed into this direction…. and we let it happen !!!!
Let the gays get married! who cares and who´s business is that anyways ?
I´m totally fine with that!
Do I really have to bring up f.e. “peadophile gays/lesbians” to top even that, for that matter ???
what are we talking about ??? …..we´re back at the start!!! ?
absolute non-issues for an open society!!! Who gives a shit ????
we got to crack the right-left paradigm IMMEDIATELY!!!! … to be able to see through all these anti-human, self-destructing dogmas ruining our brains, souls and culture, while the world, the planet and its people, go down in shambles …..
ONLY because we allow TPTB to rule over us in every possible way !!!!!!!!!!
They´re building up the pure shit for us to face, that keeps us from being spiritual creative beings … taking away from us any sense, spirit and conscious, to make us disabled, remote controlled monsters, no longer wanting or being capable to deal with any real stuff!?
The legalization of pot AND! hemp is long overdue … but we´re DISTRACTED by nonsense!!!!!! We got to wake up !!!!
“They” keep us busy 24 hours a day with non-issues, only to fall into apathy, when it comes to dealing with real life and everything that we should be taking care of ….
we are being fooled into oblivion … thats why the crooks can sell us any shit!!!! … and make us so dependent on them !!!!!!!
We are somewhat fu###ed !!!!
PS: do I have to mention “the green parties” all over the world, are not really helpful in all this?
They have long given up on really fighting desastreous nuclear power …. they´re pretty easy on GMOs spreading like cancer all over the planet …. irreversible damage!!! … they don´t fight anymore!!! .. they have been bought by exactely by the same corporations, they pretend to be against, only to gain, or stay in power!
….. “we the sheeple” are buying everything anyways!!!!!
Obviously we don´t deserve any better!
Vonda-rant – over and out ! sorry …

They deserve the flack for this. It’s gonna be so funny watching the egg on politicians faces. I’ve got front-row seats at keiserville to see the truth play out.

Republicans descend into civil war as Tea Party movement vows to drive party further to the right
What you say is true, people should give up on the two party system. I think they will, but only after things get much, much worse. Greece shows us this, only now do they have several parties, with some new ones rising up from the ashes of the old ones. But one of those is the Golden Dawn, a neo-Nazi party.
This looks to be a replay of the 1930′s in certain ways…
It will be hard to totally overcome the two party system,some of it is rooted in biology…

I think it’s important that some of these side issues get somewhat ‘settled’ so that the main issues can go front and center. I don’t see any other way for this to happen.
The Republican party is one of basically old white male fundamentalists, and though I don’t doubt a ‘younger’ fascist party will eventually replace it, at least by that time, the focus will be more on economics.
