Can someone, anyone, please explain why they're supporting the GOP this election? Their hypocrisy astounds me, and the extent to which the media is complicit in the spread of disinformation is remarkable. Like many others, I'm disillusuioned with the current administration, so I get the frustrations. However, the GOP is talking out of both sides of their mouths. They're running against the deficit, but they're proposing unpaid tax cuts that will add trillions to the deficit. They're running against the stimulus, but they're requesting funds and smiling at ribbon cutting ceremonies. They're proposing nothing but a return to the policies of the Bush administration, with even more conservative social policies. They're threatening to shut down the government.
Apologies for the rambling rant, but I'm very frustrated with our electorate. I keep hoping the we're going to get a collective wake-up call, that we'll recognize that the emperor has no clothes.
I'd love to hear a serious, thoughtful response from any GOP supporter, explaining how their 'ideas' are going to help us.
