The younger generations may not idolize BHO but they fear the far reactionary right to their bones.
I believe this may be true, Jake.
Why do you think that is so?
Maybe because the reactionary right reminisces the 50's (and beyond) - and young people know the 50's were not that great!
I was watching the 11/01/13 Rachel Maddow show and, I gotta tell ya, after a half hour I was hatin on the Tea Party my DAMN self...and I'm a Ted Cruz Fan Club member! (I'm not, but I would!)
I regularly watch the Big 3 evening news programs but I haven't watched MSNBC in a while, so I gave her a try.
Man oh man.
In a way she reminds me of...well, ME!
Snarky. Matter of factual.
She can be devastating the way she demonizes people.
She employs false assumptions quite a bit...stating a falsehood or a questioned fact as though it was well established fact.
She questions the accuracy of a reporter who describes Reublican Mitch McConnell as a "knife fighter" I think he said.
And even though it would have helped her argument in favor of preventing Ted Cruz and the New Kids from trying to oust seven different old guard, RINO politicians, she indicated she was interested in the truth rather than winning her argument noi matter what.
But every so often she would say something which insinuated the Tea Party was racist and that Ted Cruz was doing things that any reasonable person might conclude were in support of racism.
And I felt the urge to play Tit 4 Tat!
To point out where Dems had done similar things and even worse.
That's when I realized this Tit 4 Tat tactic might have experienced it's spiritual rebirth on HER show!
Bottom line...
No wonder younger Libs might not view the Right clearly.
She does a good job of demonizing the Right.
Righties, go to her site and watch today's show and you will be amazed, I think.
