Recall the Bush admin
- we could not question the leader - the Dixie Chicks and countless others were threatened, lost their jobs, removed from the airways
- we were ridiculed and called unpatriotic if we suggested a different route than the repugs were taking
- people like Dan Rather lost their jobs for reporting more accurately than the becks and o'reilly's of the world
- result: many dead soldiers, many dead civilians, a demolished economy

Now that we have the power
- the repugs are back to spreading their lies publicly
- intimidating our leaders and speakers
- insulting the President, calling him names, inciting violence towards him
- Result: repugs are using tactics to destroy legislation that will help tens of millions

Why do we waste our time fighting among ourselves to give rights to repug morons who do not defend us when they are in power. The argument - well we are no better than them is bullshit. The gop wants power and our approach to silence ourselves, or get mad at lefters who are sick of the repug bullshit - will only give it back to them.
