Republicans are Terrorists

I know I'm probably not the first person to come to this realization, but I really feel the focus needs to be diverted from John McCain and toward his political party. McCain is merely the front man, the most public face of the Republican Party. But he's neither smart enough nor crafty enough to be engineering what the Republican Party is doing to this great country.

I've always had problems criticizing or disrespecting John McCain. What he went through in Viet Nam - right or wrong - was a major sacrifice to our nation. He hasn't been the greatest senator we've ever had, but I think for the most part he did his best to represent Arizona over the past many years. He never was - and certainly isn't now - presidential material. That's why the Republicans are running him. He's old and near the end of his career. He can easily be manipulated and will lie on command. I'm not even sure he can differentiate the truth any longer. He is the Party's sacrificial lamb, since the power elite know fully well there is no chance any Republican is going to be elected in 2008 to go to the White House. So they put forward someone they have no conscience about trashing personally or professionally.

So why are the pushing so hard? Why throw Sarah Palin into the mix? Why lie about the lies and continue to hide behind false patriotism?

Because their goal is to take as much as the vote away from the Democrats as possible so that the opposing Party's victory isn't as overwhelming as it would be otherwise. Therefore it will appear the country is still divided enough that a Republican in 2012 might be viable. But it's worse. In their attempt to do this, their ultimate goal is to keep the country divided, on edge, unhappy and fearful. The want to drag America down so they can offer to step in and build it back up.

Isn't this EXACTLY what a terrorist wants to do?

In their ideological zeal and misguided principles, the Republican Party has become worse than Al-Qaeda. They have resources and techniques that a foreign agent couldn't even imagine controlling. They have a ready-and-willing media to spread their poison and the connections to cover up everything they are doing. But make no mistake, their purpose is to harm America to the point where we think they are its salvation and our saviors.

They are sick, sorry, unstable people who should become the victims of their own system. We need a detention center for Republicans. We must take back - and keep - this country in the next election. I only wish we could somehow prosecute everyone in McCain's campaign and demonstrate to his deluded supporters just how wrong they are.

Maybe these two articles will help, but I doubt it. Blindness - especially the mental type - is almost impossible to heal. Especially with facts and knowledge, since most Republicans base their allegiance to the Party on hatred.
