Delegitimizing the Election

The Republican Party is about to go into the wilderness. But don't worry for them. They like it there, because they get to purge the infidels, the moderates, the non-believers, the temperate, and the reasonable.

The Republican Party feeds on fear and a sense of victimization and outrage and martyrdom. Which is why ACORN has become such a boogieman and important symbol to them. Millions of American citizens -- often minorities, the poor, the voiceless -- are being enfranchised into the full rights of American citizenship by registering to vote. And this is a tremendous threat to the Republican Party, which depends on minimal turn-outs on election days.

Here's a very important video that presents the facts about ACORN, while touching on the Republican Party's goals -- though those facts will surely be dismissed as opinion, rhetoric, rant, and cant:



Barack Obama will get no honeymoon, no 100 days. His hands will be tied by the right-wing and by the media who buy into the claims that there's no money left. They will say in unison that Obama must govern from a point of fiscal austerity, that the deficit has only NOW become most important (and only by coincidence, now that Democrats are governing.)

But more than this, he will be attacked, smeared, slandered, and delegitimized as President of these United States, same as the Republican Party did with President Clinton. And the anger and outrage will start with the "evils" of ACORN.

Steel yourself.
