I am weary to my marrow of the deep moral and intellectual sickness of the right
as encapsulated within the republican party. I'm tired to death of their racism, sexism and nativism. I'm sick of their homophobia and demonization of everyone who isn't fundamentalist 'godly'. They laud stupidity and elevate hate.

In the spectacle of their race to be the most extreme, they issue a ****ing torrent of proposals, one more loathsome than the next. In under a decade, the republican party has transformed itself from being mean spirited but with a semblance of sanity, to a party of hate that's batshit crazy.

I'm so bloody sick of it. Not so many years ago, I could sometimes laugh at the stories posted here, illustrating this crap. If I didn't see those stories as entirely anomalous, I didn't see them as representing the whole of the republican party. Now? It's almost impossible to find even shallow pockets of decency and sanity within the republican ranks.

Maybe there's still some hope that the republican party can be transformed from the toxic entity it now is, but what with the control they have over state governments, redistricting, the deterioration of voting rights, unlimited funds and organizations like ALEC, it's exceedingly difficult to see how that happens.

Nothing like the ever loving and tolerant left to despise a contradictory position.

Liberalism is a mental disease.

Poor baby. Dealing with different viewpoints is a burden we all must learn if you wish to live in a free society.

Crushing all dissent and opposition is the mark of a Bloody tyrant. DU takes this side every time.

It's Sunday, I guess I better laud my stupidity and elevate my hate.

Gotta be a mole, right?  Or are there even primitives who are that stupid?

Plaque At Northeastern Illinois University Honors Abraham Lincoln . . . As A Democrat…


I saw this on Twitter and figured it was a hoax (how could anyone be that stupid?), I did a little digging and amazingly it is not. The plaque is affixed to the exterior of the Jacob Carruthers Center for Inner City Studies of Northeastern Illinois University.

Either stupid or very desperate to conceal their racist past or both.

Was this a Show Your Prog-Orthodoxy bid for DU cred? Geesh, what a study in pettiness: "People disagree with me and haven't shriveled up and died! Waaaaaah!!!"

And it gets worse. We had children and didn't kill them before they could be born!
