Jeffery Wells of
Hollywood Elsewhere opines:
Many times I've riffed on a dark, delicious fantasy about
rounding up Tea Bagger types and sentencing them to green re-education camps for minimum one-year terms. Not to punish per se but to expose these contemptible morons to facts, to truth, to the way things really are and how they're being played by the rich, and the fact that Boomers have taken almost everything and that diminished lifestyles and economic security are being bequeathed to Genx and GenY for decades to come, and that the best is definitely over. The infra-structure that once provided decent, fair-minded quality of life to middle-class people in this country is
disintegrating. The game is rigged. This is the fall of the Roman Empire.

This creature seems to think that the crumbling of our society, which has been ongoing under "bipartisan" leadership for many of the last forty years, is completely due to the machinations of the Tea Party, which only has existed since 2008. The fact that many of "the rich" are the leaders they turn to for their funding and marching orders escapes him.
The fact that the "green" push for control is dominated by people who stand to profit immensely also escapes him.
He goes on:
++++++++++++++++++++
All largely because of impediments to logical, intelligent governing put up by the knee-jerk, mule-like, corporate-kowtowing mentality of Tea-Bagger types and their 60 or so looney-tunes Congresspersons now in office. We've truly become a South American society of rightist oligarchs, angry lefties, disillusioned wage-earners, retirement-age fuddies and struggling, debt-smothered have-nots, and the rightist boobs will never understand that
they're primarily the problem.
++++++++++++++++++++
Osama certainly has "kowtowed" to GE - billions in profits and zero taxes paid, and their chairman and CEO,
Jeffrey R. Immelt, is his good buddy. No mention of THAT.
I've got a dark fantasy of people like Mr. Wells being forced to take responsibility for ALL their actions and opinions, and being forced to earn a living in a world where only truly productive people actually get paid...
