"Are you going to pull those pistols or whistle Dixie?"America has been undergoing a rapdily accelerating Coup by Conservatives. After their military defeat during the Civil War, the conservatives of this Nation began a campaign of low-grade guerilla warfare against America targeting Women, Liberals, Unionists, Minorities, and Immigrants; all groups oppossed to the creation of the Southern White Man's Utopia the Neo-Confederacy.
Since the Era of Ronald Reagan, who opened up his white resentment campaign in Philadelphia, Mississippi, with "I believe in state's rights. I’m going to devote myself to trying to reorder those priorities and to restore to the states and local communities those functions which properly belong there." Conservatives have inflitrated enough areas of local, state, and federal government to alter, undermine and neuter protections for the American People and re-establish the Era when the 1% Ruled and White Conservatives acted as Whip Holders and Attack Dogs keeping everyone else in line.
But, in the last 15 years, they've accelearated their efforts, with major strikes at the heart of Democracy.
- The impeachment of President Bill Clinton.
- Convicted Criminal Tom DeLay and other Republicans redistricting Congressional Districts to devalue Democratic Votes.
- The Stolen 2000 Presidential Election, in which Al Gore won the Popular Vote by almost a million votes and won more votes in Florida.
- The SCOTUS rulings especially Bush v. Gore and Citizen's United and Shelby County v. Holder.
- The Congressional Obstruction during Barack Obama's Presidency.

Grand Slam Gene. Few get it. There is a high probability of them grabbing the presidency and when they do I will be outta here. Very much looking forward to returning to Mexico in Oct. I don't want to be around this as it is.
Thanks One Fly, and those things I' mentioned heein are just the broad brush strokes of Wage Slavery, we can add in Bush's Tax Cuts, the Republican effort to swiondle Social Security, the deregulation of every industry allowing Corporate Behemoths to engage in wage theft, the elimination of Medicaid and several other ploys the right has been using to turn the American People into Cogs in the Gears of Industry and War.
