So I ask you (0 / 0)
how far down do we have to fall before we hit rock bottom.
In the 50's under Sen McCarthy many of the people supported him and in doing so forced many of his colleagues to support his communist witch hunts. It took a while but finally the people realized what he was doing went against everything this nation stood for and finally he was put out to pasture.
We now have a situation where the tea bagging republicans want to play "My Way or The Highway" politics which once again goes against what democracy stands for. Our fore fathers had diverse opinions of what this government should look like, but they all knew in order for it to work they needed to sit down and work together to come up with a democracy that would work for all the people. Not just the rich or conservatives or liberals, all the people. It called for compromise and they did and that philosophy stood for centuries, have different opinions, work them out through compromise and create something that worked for all the people.
So we have to ask ourselves how far does our government have to fall before those individuals supporting a party that wants only to create a government that will work for some of the people, mainly those individuals who hold the republican ideology, without compromise and without regard to the rest of the American people fall before they realize they will suffer just as those not represented.
These individuals supporting this anti-democratic way of thought should be asking themselves do they want a nation which represents only republicans, and only those republicans chosen by the party, for that is what they should expect.
As in the McCarthy era, his focus was unlimited and encompassed Americans from all walks of life without regard to political party or their support for his policies, only his closest supporters were exempt from his witch hunt. Today those in the republican party who strive to take over this government which, as it is evident from their passed actions, they intend to use to enrich those who already have gain most of the wealth and could care less about those who are not within the inner circle. Supporters should consider this, once in control do you really think they will care if you sink even further to the bottom? I seriously doubt it.
