The crackpots who control our fate, right now


People may tell you there are two Republican Parties, right now.

Pshaw.

There is one Republican Party, dominated by people with whose extortion strategies George Will, Pat Buchanan, and most other longstanding movement conservatives agree.

And they are not bluffing.

They plan NOT to flinch, and they already know what they will do if the Democrats don’t flinch and disaster ensues.

They will blame the Democrats and poison Obama’s second term with impeachment.

I fully expect the left to chicken out before the end, as they always have in the past.

Especially the overseas left that will join nearly all overseas governments in demanding Obama surrender to avoid harm to themselves and their own peoples.

They don’t care all that much, really, whether the American right destroys American social democracy.

They don’t care all that much, really, whether we in America lose Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Obamacare, and pretty much everything else.

So, when they realize the Republican Party isn’t going to flinch, they will change their tunes and suddenly be among those demanding most loudly that the Democrats surrender.

And that will turn the American liberals, who will also suddenly start to tell us, more in sorrow than in anger, that somebody has to be the responsible adult.

And so, once again, the poorest and most vulnerable of Democratic constituencies will have to get publicly raped by Republicans while the Democrats hold their coats.
