After hearing about the House passing the debt ceiling bill, I figured I'd touch the poop a little and listen to Mark Levine on my way home from work. While I was listening to him rant about the betrayal of true conservatives by the House GOP leadership, I realized that I really don't understand what extreme right wingers think the end-state of their paranoid fantasies are. If I'm correct in reading between Levine's generalities, they believe that the government, as a tool of the boogeyman left, is making itself bigger and driving itself into debt because they want to destroy the government because they hate America. Is this right? Because if so, I just can't follow the delusional logic. Not that it's surprising, but still

You can say that about the revolving door and bowing to corporate interests but the level of grifting in the GOP is unparalleled in any other political party. The only thing close on the D side is book deals, and that's nothing.

It was glaringly obvious in the mid-80s, and has only gotten worse since. The Democrats have had their opportunities to make a serious effort to turn things around, and whether through incompetence or intent, they haven't taken them. I really hope that the administration's serious about tackling the issue this time, but I'm not sure they have the pull to make it happen, even in their own party. I'm in no way suggesting that they are treading the conservative path of actively working to expand the inequality, just that their motivation over the years has seemed wanting.

Mark Levin, like a typical school yard bully, likes to call people made up derogatory variations of their real names, he does the same for businesses, and usually it's a close variation of their real name. Tonight tough, he was calling Bill de Blasio by the name of Bill de Commio. He's just awful.

I dunno. I almost think it makes him adorable in a simpering moron kind of way. I hear him say, "the New York Slimes," and I'm all just, "aww aren't you just the cutest little firebrand with your 'funny' little nicknames for everything." I can't help but find him entertaining despite how big of a shrill shitbag he is. He is the incarnate manifestation of Poe's Law.

The public really hasn't been aware of the wealth gap until recently, especially now that it's effects have become palpable. Awareness and anger are growing, and when that happens Dems tend to buckle to their constituency, whereas the GOP is basically on a zombie mission to destroy everything & doesn't give a gently caress.

Levin is a hilarious tubby shut in who only appears on formats where he knows he can control everything. It's pretty obvious that he's one of those guys who never got over getting picked on in high school and craves power just so he can poo poo all over anyone he can push around. He takes time off to go to blizzcon every year and I think he broadcasts out of his basement these days.

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/02/10/right-wing-pastor-pat-robertson-committed-blasphemy-by-mocking-creationism/ "A pastor affiliated with the American Family Association has accused religious broadcaster Pat Robertson of “blasphemy” for mocking creationism. Robertson responded to last week’s debate between Bill Nye, “the Science Guy,” and Creation Museum founder Ken Ham by flatly denouncing the idea that the Earth was only 6,000 years old. “Let’s be real,” Robertson said on his “700 Club” program. “Let’s not make a joke of ourselves.”" Reasonable Robertson is back again
