• Robinson, Exploiting Fear and the Repubs; Instead Of Tolerance, Respect And Acceptance of Others

  True, Robinson represents the worst that is in america but his message of hate arouses peoples fears. This guy is another George Bush, and could one day be in the oval office with the torture legislation as one of his tools by which he can further the Repub agenda of win by any means and no matter what the cost is to our country and our citizens.

  This southern thinking which has spread throughout the entire Repub party is now a cancer spreading throughout america by exploiting peoples fears.

  I hate this kind of thinking and despise those who think this way; because this mindset caused a whole host of evil in the history of this world. Even the Catholic Church, my church, has become a foundation stone for this kind of evil mindset and those who engage in it.

  All of these people and their religious institutions just do not see the broader implications. For example, this kind of thinking resulted in the crusades of Pope Urban, the spanish inquisition, the killing of witches who only behaved strangely because they had accidently and unknowingly eaten ergot which is a hallucinogen. This mindset of hate caused Hitler( a catholic btw as were so many of his top advisors) which led to the holocaust/a genocide, racism everywhere in the world and most obviously in america, the robber barons, Nixon, Reagan, Bush 41 and the worst one of all Bush 43 and his Bush family oil wars.

  So what we do is use the best strategies, EDUCATION and HONESTY, and get very clear on just what our message and beliefs are, and repeating them ENDLESSLY. The ultimate goal must always be a return to bipartisanship that benefits the american people.

  Educating the american voter via COMPLETE and TOTAL HONESTY, and straight forward approaches(ie. calling things exactly what they are such as identifying Robinson's message as one of hate and reminding people of how they would feel if that mindset were used against themselves) using sunshine and the light of reasoning to illuminate this mindset for what it truly is, a mindset of hate and intolerance, a violation of human values and chrsitian values. Would/did Jesus do any of these things, absolutely NOT, NOT, Not.

  This can be a length process but some historians say that the Repub strategy has not been developing since and from the Nixon admin which spawned the filth of people including Cheney and Rumsfeld but actually began during the Eisenhower admin. when Ike stopped the right wing radicals in his own party from infecting his admin.

  So what I am saying is that the Repubs have been working at this for a very long time and that is how they have developed and refined their message of hate and complete disregard for human beings everywhere and especially our american citizens. Their message has evolved into one that causes people to vote against their own best interests, against their own families needs and accept the belief that using taxpayer dollars to benefit the taxpayers is somehow WRONG.

  This has now been spun into the latest meta message that americans should not be in the least bit concerned that the Bush/ Repubs have placed our entire fiscal system in great jeopardy. And while it appears to be doing ok at this time is clearly very dangerous to the future of america.

  They also spin another meta message that taxpayers need not worry about the Repubs greatly expanding the size and cost of gov't but that how much worse the Dems would would have done had they,repubs, not been in power.

  The Rethugs just keep repeating all of these phony messages and get away with it. Meanwhile the Dems don't hammer away at these falsehoods with many simple and straightforward messages to conteract these illusionary smoke and mirrors ideas by directing/forcing the voters to just simply look at the reality of the situation, of which there are many. Why have the Dems forgotten critical analysis which we all learned in college.

  Voters must remember that Clinton did not get us into the Bush family oil wars or any wars. Clinton left office with a net positive balance in the treasury, and which the Repubs squandered and spent so much more that our nation is now deep in debt, AND THAT IS NOT OK. Then constantly remind americans why that is NOT OK by personalizing this enormous and very dangerous debt.

  The Dems should be talking about world wide cooperation within the UN toward solving the worlds problems. The Bushies just want to take their crayons and go home, constantly vilifying the UN and pointing out all it's faults (again that is the same old repub message of blame everyone else for what is wrong in the world and give no cooperation to make things better).

  Regarding the UN, Bolton, Bush, Rice and the repubs just want to whine, cry, complain and blame everyone else who participates in the UN just because other nations don't dutifully fall in line with the Bush/ repub arrogant view. Good gosh these people are nothing more than mean spirited babies, but they have been able to convince the voters to swallow their small and narrow minded view of everything and everyone.

  If our country would treat everyone else with a lot more respect and some humility, far more could be accomplished and more quickly. Our country must stop threatening every other country in the world and I do mean every other country in the world.

  I am a psychologist and as such can guarantee that the principles of psychology and sociology really do apply at the local, national and world levels, and to all people. Haven' at least some Dems studied these principles in college.

  The Dems do not take strong, clear, very loud and completely HONEST positions on the issues that most americans face and FEAR in their daily lives.
