"It is at their peril"
Listening to ED now, and they are talking about the republicans in congress are now in trouble with the Americans people for their intractable stance.

Be warned Mr. Boehner, Mr. Ryan.. republican congresspeople.. you do not have the support you think you have.

Not at all.

1. I'm not sure they care when they own the voting machines.
And I am NOT being sarcastic.

4. I hear that.. just trying to make sense of the Wisc thing.
They can fool everyone once twice three times.. but sooner or later the people do catch on.

The fools seem to ride high, but they sure do hit the ground with a thud.. When I think of republicans today, I think of Charlie Sheen, Sara Palin, etc.. it catches up with them

10. Voting machines, Newspapers, ISPs, TV stations, Cable providers, Energy Companies, Agro businesses
It's almost impossible to not help fund their takeover of America; they already own everything that is vital to living except the water system and schools, and they are coming for both. Screw it, I think I'm just gonna take up drinking.

2. It flummoxes me why they think this is the right course to take.
I'm not getting their thinking processes, if they have any, they're using.

5. The tea party republicans are so narrow in their focus
no one is going to get through to them... they are on a plane no one can reason with.. But Boehner is going to have to put away the handkerchief and "man" up and deal with them.

7. People are getting down to the tomato coup cans and macaroni noodles.
In Michigan, once the great asshole Snyder fucks up the entire state's education system, believe me, all hell is going to break loose throughout Michigan.

And guess what? People in Michigan LOVE their guns and they don't care who knows it.

11. spit
It sounds bezarre but what if wheb you voted, you spit on the name that you liked. Spit is loaded with DNA and woudl be tracible back to the voter.

Of course, you could crap all over the one you wanted...

12. Both sides will blame the other side... it'll be a 'media' war, not a war over facts.
It depends on how it's framed.
