ReplyDeleteLike I say, Stupid, ignorant, hateful or any combination of the three. There's no other explanation. The Teahadists pander to hate, stupidity and ignorance, especially at election time. They know their audience. I'll give em' that. How else do you explain a crowd cheering and saying "Let him die"(for not having health insurance.) Then make getting rid of millions of Americans health coverage priority 1 by attempting to kill Obamacare like 50 times, and closing Planned Parenthood clinics etc. and how do you explain Caribou Barbie (aka: Sarah Palin)? People pay to hear her rants. There's only 3 ways to explain it.
