Since when are Republicans in favor of ‘small government’?

Since when do Republicans give a crap about religious people?

These are all convenient lies that they tell their constituents in order to gain more power over the minimal opposition they face in politics.

The sole point of the GOP is to gain total political power for their corporate owners.  Exploiting dumb religious nuts, or idiot ‘libertarians’ is just one tool of many that the GOP uses regularly to gain absolute power.  That’s all they care about.  And no one is trying to stop them.

Watch what the GOP actually does, don’t believe one word of what they say.

The governor of Michigan is eliminating local government, installing a state-wide dictatorship under the direct control of the Governor.  Republican politicians don’t give one crap about local control, they only care about absolute authority.

When – not if, but when – the GOP does to the Democratic Party what they did to the Communists in the 1950s (which Rush Limbaugh has said is a goal of the GOP) the idea of ‘Small Government’ will be thrown out.  Christian churches will be regulated just as they are now doing with Muslims.  Women will no longer have any rights, they will revert to being property.  No one is trying to stop them.

Just look at where the GOP ideology ends up: slavery for 95% of the country, working for their corporate owners for life, men women and children.  That is what they want.  America as a third-world nation, with no rights, total poverty, a Syrian style police state that ruthlessly murders everyone that dares dream of a better life.  That is what the Republican Leadership is actively creating in America. Who will stop them?

And who is going to stop them?  The fake Democrats that are all moderate Republicans to begin with?  Ignorant Americans that revel in their own stupidity?  Fox ‘News’ watchers that ardently believe every single lie they are told through that propaganda outlet?  Rush Limbaugh listeners that will never believe anything if Rush didn’t say it?

The Republicans are already ignoring the Rule of Law.  The State AG in Wisconsin brazenly ignored a court order.  Think about that one for a second: the state’s highest legal authority openly defied an order from the judicial branch because he lost the decision! But then, who was going to stop him?  

There is a group of folks out there (just go read Free Republic) that believe that several state governors should stage a coup against the democratically elected president of the United States simply because that President is from the Democratic Party.  They believe that 5 governors should find five US Marshals and simply go arrest the President right now because they don’t like the results of the election.

Any society function because the people agree to abide by the rules.  When segments of society openly defy those rules and continually get away with it, society collapses.  The Republican Party has been openly defying the Rule of Law for decades, and they now have 24 hour-a-day propaganda outlets on TV and radio that constantly call for defiance of civilization.  No one dares stop them.

In 2012, when the GOP loses to Obama yet again, will the GOP abide by the election results?  Or will they hold a swearing-in of their One True Republican President and set up a second Patriotic government to issue decrees against the Democratic Party?  Who would stop them?

I am pretty sure that America is doomed to the Republican Party’s vision of the future: a feudal society where the King’s word is the only law.  A society where the legal authority of the King is not controlled by the Catholic Church, but by the Captains of Industry.  The far-right has already won, it’s only a matter of time.

Because no one stopped them.
