They recognize no limits to their power, no curbs to their desire. There are few frontiers in democratic government that they will not work to violate, or to twist to their own purposes. And they absolutely will not stop. Ni shagu nazad, as Stalin said to his army. Not one step backwards....
The experiment in Kansas is nearly complete. Government has been refashioned to work splendidly for the wealthy and connected, and not at all for the people who need it most, who then develop within their hearts and minds contempt for it at the ballot box, and contempt that perpetuates itself with every new atrocity, which has been the plan all along. As we point out often here at the shebeen, the problem with lab rats is that most of them die.

They reelected the person leading the destruction of their state, so they must view said destruction as a positive thing.
Eventually they will either prevail and prove liberals wrong, or more likely they will greatly suffer.

Don't have time now to dig it out, but a professor at Wichita State had some pretty solid evidence of voting machine chicanery.

(13,437 posts)The voters re-elected Brownback because he checked off those boxes for them while Dems and Independents stayed home. The recipients of the massive tax cuts may also have voted to keep him in office.

With that power they have brainwashed everyone into thinking that wealthy people and business owners are "heroes."

(34,139 posts)I'll never understand why modern Republicans run for office. They don't believe in a functioning government and are generally incompetent at running one efficiently.
Well, I take that back - they run so they can direct as much public money to the pockets of their cronies and to their own pockets.
