Thank you
I'm sure others have had the same sentiment but I thought I was going insane.. I'm in oklahoma where O'Reilly is considered a moderate democrat and Hitler could pull in a solid 30% of the popular vote.

I could read/see/hear the same story as the people around me and derive an opposite interpretation of the same facts.. This administration is the first to actually scare me.. make me afraid of the future.. and the people here just LOVE him.. and I started to wonder if I was paranoid, insane, or feeling the effects of some sort of toxic poisining...

but I come to this site and at least I see others feel the same way...

Oh by the way.. did I mention I use to be a staunch republican.. but I just couldn't take that last step to facism..

3. Hi, LoisMustDie
Welcome to DU :hi:

And I agree: It is scary to see people who totally love Bush and apparently do not see anything that is going on in this country or abroad.

6. Welcome to DU
Hope you find a haven here. I never felt as badly about the Republican party as I have these last years. I've always been a Dem, always voted Dem but I never felt like they were the enemy they just had a different way of looking at things. It started back with Reagan but this crew has brought it to totally new level.
