Reprise of the terror elections of 2004?

More claptrap playing to right wing hysteria

Islamic State has become an existential threat to the West

Hogwash, bullshit, and nonsense.

There's a flood of this rot out there, right now.

An absolute lunatic riot of balderdash.

Paris and the fall of Rome, for example.

Maybe we should just turn off everything to do with news and public affairs for a week or so, to give the idiots with the megaphones time to shout themselves hoarse and collapse of exhaustion.

Is the right wing noise machine going to try to turn this into the election of 2004, again, when they simply terrified America into voting for the Republicans?

Well, they certainly can't campaign on their real agenda, can they?

Hey, vote for us because we want to abolish the minimum wage, outlaw union shops, end overtime and workers compensation, and abolish Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid along with every piece of Obamacare legislation.

We want America to continue to pay more for prescriptions than anyone else in the world.

We think rising inequality is just wonderful.

We want to abolish government controls on the financial system and, for that matter, on anything at all except every single one of everyone's communications and everybody's sex lives.

We want to drastically lower taxes for the rich, buy off the middle class with chump change, and raise taxes on the poor.

Food and drug watchdogs? You don't need them. E coli is the new normal.

Environment watchdogs? Hell no. Better boil your water, friends, and load up on iodine pills.

Car safety recalls? Product safety controls for anything? Hey, caveat emptor, baby.
