Some here are living in dream land. One of them calls it the "Reality based community". They are heavily in denial and will fight anyone that tries to tell them anything other than their narrow view of the status quo. When life get too hard they grab onto an authority figure and hold on for dear life. They have a hold on Pres Obama and he could end SS and Medicare and they would cheer. I see them as a worse threat than the apathetic. They are actively and very vocally pushing the status quo at the expense of progressive reforms. H. Clinton could pledge to end all taxes on the 1% and they would still vote for her.
Keep up the good fight and don't let the Turd Way Bastards get you down.
