re: #480 Ben Hur

That would be accurate if all Reps were white and Christian.

I’m not talking about all Reps, I am talking about the crazies of the right.

Why else all the racist overtones and undertones? Why else all the talk of tyranny?

They did not speak of tyranny or Constitutional crisis when white and Christian W. did far more invasive things (like warrantless wiretaps and flying people to Syria to be tortured).

But Obama (who is Black, and many on the far right, believe is not a Christian, who they believe wasn’t even born here) wants to give you health insurance or talk about education and that is tyranny?
There will be Death camps for granny in the health bill?

NOw I am not bringing that to talk about healthcare per se. The bill, if it materializes will be either a good or bad bill economically and there is plenty of room for debate.

But death camp creating tyranny?

Only a true idiot would think that. Or, someone who is really really scared that their idea of White Christian America is evaporating.

NO that is the root of it, and the GOP knows it, but is not moral enough to avoid playing up to it.
