The Rethugs are demanding an apology! An apology from California Democratic chief, John Burton,
You see, John Burton told the truth. Rethugs don't like the truth anymore. Men like Barry Goldwater have no place in their party these days. He tried to tell the truth as he saw it. Outright lies would have been repugnant to a man of his character.
Burton pointed out the fact that modern Rethugs have mastered the Nazi tactic of the "big lie." Tell a lie big enough, often and loudly enough, and a large percentage of the population will believe it.
The Rethug convention was nothing more than a gigantic lie fest. History was revamped. Rethug obstructionism and blatant tactics of doing everything possible to frustrate anything that would solve the nations problems and make Obama look good and succesful -- even things they once championed -- had to be denounced and made to look evil. Joseph Goebels would be proud of their artful adoption of his tactics.
The Rethug party is a gigantic cauldron of theocratic fascism and deception. They are determined to return America to pre-Hoover times and British-style Dickensian class distinctions. They want to demolish the separation of church and state so religious dogma can be inculcated into law and used to control and terrorize the populace. The only way that can be accomplished is through deception -- convincing the average person that black is really white and vice versa.
What a travesty! Demanding that someone apologize for telling the truth!
I don't think so.
About Me
- Allen C. Dexter
- I am an escapee from cultic religion who spent 22 years of my life caught up in the Armstrongist Worldwide Church of God. I have since become an ardent agnostic atheist on the order of Thomas Paine, one of our great founding fathers. My purpose is to further as much as possible what Paine started in the 18th century. Thomas Paine had the following to say about his book in his forward: "TO MY FELLOW-CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA: I PUT the following work under your protection. It contains my opinions upon Religion. You will do me the justice to remember, that I have always strenuously supported the Right of every Man to his own opinion, however different that opinion might be to mine. He who denies to another this right, makes a slave of himself to his present opinion, because he precludes himself the right of changing it. The most formidable weapon against errors of every kind is Reason. I have never used any other, and I trust I never shall. Your affectionate friend and fellow-citizen, THOMAS PAINE"
