I sadly agree with you. Propaganda takes it's toll. I just had a conversation this morning with my bookkeeper. She gets a steady diet of right wing talk radio. She's not rich by any means and yet I couldn't make her understand that asking the rich to pay their fair share of taxes to help maintain society isn't "communism".
If the top 10% own 90% of the country, they should be paying 90% of our tax revenue. Those that own, pay to maintain. This is true of a condo complex or anything else where ownership is shared. People pay to maintain in accordance to how much of a share of it they own.
She thinks a "flat tax" would help address that problem.
This is just how effective right wing propaganda has been in America. Eat your heart out Pravda!

I hope she keeps the books better than she understands reality D-P. You could be in a lot of trouble.

Yesterday I managed to hear Mr Bachmann speak and he is in little doubt Liberace gay and in very much in the closet.

It's the kind of gay-repairative therapy that I can support!
My internal monologue was, "I don't think she gets the idea of bisexu..." "Shut up! Let her go to work!" "Right, she's welcome to try."

Yeah..needless to say that concept of bi-sexuality falls flat on the ears of the right. To them, it is either gay or straight..not gray, just black or white.
..then again, this IS the mentality of those who are authoritarian. There is never a gray area for them. It is either "with me or against me"

Sorry, the nebulous "her" I was thinking of was defiantly NOT Michelle Bachmann (*ewwww, chringe*). The woman I was remembering was a lot younger, prettier and much less scary.

Marcus Bachmann's sibilant speech sets Internet tongues wagging
July 5, 2011
Quote:"..People started questioning Bachmann's sexuality well before his wife announced her presidential campaign. Back in September 2010, for example, Truth Wins Out—a nonprofit whose mission is to fight "anti-gay religious extremism"—posted on its website a YouTube of Bachmann with the comment, "Comment not necessary." That vid got people talking, but not at the level we're now seeing. Will his sexuality become a bigger issue as Mrs. B's campaign churns along? We'll see."
"In life you can never be too kind or too fair; everyone you meet is carrying a heavy load. When you go through your day expressing kindness and courtesy to all you meet, you leave behind a feeling of warmth and good cheer, and you help alleviate the burdens everyone is struggling with."
Brian Tracy
