Republican Dirty Tricks

As President Obama’s continues to pine for Republicans like a battered spouse pining for his abuser, lets not fool ourselves… Republicans have no interest in tackling the enormous problems their dead-ender policies have inflicted on our nation due to the fact that they are not sharing the same reality as normal people.

Frank Shaefer put it best when he  said, “a village cannot reorganize village life to suit the village idiot“ when referring to those (mostly Republicans) who believe that problems facing our planet are not to be tackled because Jesus will be right down to smite the wicked.   Now the research commissioned by Markos Moulitsas for the Daily Kos website conducted by Research 2000, the nonpartisan research firm confirms the worst concerns of normal people (non-Republicans) that the “Party of No” is no more to be reasoned with than a child can be reasoned out of the belief of the monster in their closet after they blame it for wetting the bed.

The research is fascinating; but it would be hilarious if it weren’t for the fact that the Republican Party and the disconnected fools that support it were not currently so successful in their mission to turn “The Land of the Free” into “The United States of Serfs and Lords” with the American Taliban securely enshrined in the halls of power to keep the Sheeple from demanding their reward on Earth rather than in Heaven.

Ed Schultz and Markos Moulitsas discuss the new Daily Kos/Research 2000 poll revealing the crazy views of Republican voters:
