ever-constricting political dementia. A sign suggesting such is found in the GOP's break from being able to interpret the world around them, or the data from it, with any long term benefit
for the world, which is not good for America. So that they have isolated themselves, actually,
from themselves; having a keen and mercurial relationship to segregation they segregated themselves first & away from America - they're split - not amongst themselves per se but inside their heads though 'split' is being kind when they are understood more clearly as: splintered, certainly after reviewing the level of engagement they've routinely chosen to descend to along with those tactics down there.
If ultimate power ultimately corrupts; if such power is the drug, the ultimate aphrodisiac ala C Street which we know they think it to be, then after these some 12+ years previous while they were marching through the rotunda with a silver platter full of their half-baked torts like the sleazy used car salesmen/lawyers/watermelon shoot'n/tongue talking tel-evangelical tyrants they are while cooking up no-bid crony war profit deals with the despots of the world watch the birdie style? Well...well, first of all:
Wow! What a tumble. So the mighty truly do fall...down on their knees trying to tweeze what they hope are little white rocks, dangling chads and belly button lint from out the carpet that's right - the GOP has *tremendous* substance abuse & withdrawal issues they feel they should not have to endure cold-turkey...
But I disagree. The GOP has pushed the dope on themselves, they're among America's user-problems
