A Republican Speaks Out

It's refreshing to hear the truth, even when you already know it.

We live in strange times. "Conservatives" are hell bent on destroying the middle class and all the functioning institutions from the best half-century in American history.

We have clean water, and the Republicans are working hard to repoison it, and the air, and rape the environment generally.

They hate good government, because they want no government. They want no government because that would remove the inconvenience of democracy.

Republicans have presented and passed laws all across the country to remove young people, old people, poor people and people of color and ethnicity from the voter lists. Why? Because fewer voters make them likelier to win elections. Whiter and richer voters are likelier to vote Republican.

Mike Lofgren spent 16 years as a Republican congressional staffer. He's no fan of Democrats, but he's learned to loathe and fear Republicans and what they are trying to do. Republicans aren't conservatives, they are radicals. Lofgren calls them terrorists. They are happy to destroy America because most of their antitax corporate clients are by now safely offshore. They have succeeded in turning the U.S. into a third world country.

Here is a list of the bills Republicans have blocked in Congress. It isn't spending they are against, they are against government doing good. They are against anything that would help Americans while a Democrat is in the White House.
