There is a lot I will take responsibility for in my daily life, but I in no way can take responsibility for the path that led to the Idiocracy occupying the WH. In fact, I've been a vocal opponent of such things for years and years.


I've been denouncing Raygunism and the repeal of the Fairness Doctrine that led to the rise of hate radio and Faux. I've denounced the divisiveness that the GOP has been bringing to even Congress with Newt's GOPAC. I've been decrying the "liberal media" using BothSiderism and "objective" reporting - when one side, the GOP, is clearly lying, being "objective" only benefits the liars. I firmly reject the anti-intellectualism and emotionalism that the right embraces.

IMHO, it's fine not to consider the very culmination of all the worst of the GOP in one person as my president. I did not vote for him, he only squeaked by in the EC (~100K put him over the top in the EC) and he LOST the popular vote by 3 million votes.


How else to deal with this guy?
