Reply #7: Not sure if it is intentional or just "mokeys and cocaine" [View All]

Remember that old scientific experiment about the monkeys given access to cocaine (push Button #1) and food & water (push Button #2)?

If memory serves the entire group ultimately died because of overdose or simply because they wouldn't push the food button, not when all that coke was available.

I think the Repugs are stoned on Totalitarianism, Orwellianism, Dictatorship, and the way the Right-Wing Sub-Media have cowed and bullied their opposition and the Formerly Free Press.

They can't stop pushing the Cocaine Button, no matter the long-term consequences.

They are drunk on power, stoned on the same heady brew the Nazis were snorting in 1938.

(luckily for us, the Nazi analogy only extends towards Bushevik propaganda strategies...for the moment)
