I was Googling "endarkenment" and came across your blog. Glad I did. I recognize and appreciate the sentiments animating your posts. Since the budget hostage situation this summer, I am beginning to appreciate the GOP as a genuine cultural insurgency that's using the tools of a free society to engineer a corporate oligarchy. Laws in 30+ states to disenfranchise Democratic voter populations with voter ID restrictions are indicative of this. The trashing of comity in the U. S. Senate, another. The times demand a literal fight to try and salvage the American experiment in republican governance, to say nothing of existential issues like energy and climate. And, do we get FDR or Lincoln? Nah, we get Obama, the Appeaser in Chief.
If you have not already come across it, let me commend an article to you at Truth-out.com It's "Goodbye to All That: Reflections of a GOP Operative who Left the Cult."
I'm a Boilermaker, with an MS in Education. A cultured savage. I live in Seattle with a slightly extended step-family. Basically, your typical pissed-off working class liberal.
I no longer see the need for Obama's re-election. Mitch McConnell has proven that you can run the country from the Senate Minority leadership position.
Blessed be She from Whom I Stole the Phrase to Title My Blog: Ann.

Good day from Austin, Texas.
