As always with the repubs…..

Well… didn’t get out to shoot pool today since Tom is sick so I thought I’d come back here to do another one of these…and, with it being the 50th anniversary of JFK being assassinated, I thought I’d talk about this little epiphany that I had watching some of the historical shows on the topic. What strikes me about the climate of that time and of this time is how similar they appear when looked at in the context of right wing hate….when Kennedy was going to Dallas, there were fliers put on cars calling for Kennedy to be tried for treason for something or other…and, when you see any right wing rally these days you see the same thing on signs and fliers…that Obama should be tried for treason, again, for something or other…probably for just being president. One of the things I find to be a little disturbing with this kind of crap is that people are supposed to be more informed these days but the actions of the right and repubs show that they are just where they have always been….a hate group under the guise of a political party who should be marginalized and pushed back under the rocks they crawl from…geez…
