The great “American” pollical rally of enfranchised citizenry (always of the “country,” not of sovereign states) is headed toward November with about half of the rally-ers and rally-etts waving the glory-hallelujah banner of most of the self-righteous talk shows, Fox Network, and of course the usual Republican blowhards. These same citizens all claiming their fortified bunker is built on the “right-wing,” which of course takes in those Southern, misbegotten, former Rebel slave-worshippers, though they have not seen the light of their wrong-headed doctrinal hatred. They will have to vote in tune as staunch MAGA members. Why? Because as such typical woebegone characters as Sean Hannity and Mark Levine ad nauseum will say: “IT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION OF OUR LIVES!” This is what Hannity, et al., and their mediocre mindset, throw out election after election. Sean and his purported “right wing” ilk even said the same thing (at the time) about Mitt Romney. This sort of rallying cry is what makes real conservatives gag on the word "conservative." This chosen half of (again) “the country” also know they make up roughly half only because they would have far fewer without their Southern brethren - who, of course - they say, must see the light one day. These ill-read, pompous vaunters, of course, would not know the history (from any era) of slavery from the history of the Chicago Black Sox. But not to stray… In fact, what this half would harvest, with the population spread in approximate proportion to electoral votes, the MAGA parade would be fortunate to garner 100 electoral votes without such “lost cause” recalcitrant(s)… “his truth is marching on.” Oh, glory, glory hallelujah! Why such denigration of such people with whom (if I vote) I will post a ballot the same as theirs? Because most are either unscholarly rubes or simply liars. Ah, hell, the truth is I really think they are just trash. They constantly and deliberately berate the South for its foolhardy insistence on its secession. Its cause they insist was the cause of slavery (I just saw another online “historical fact” of slavery vs states rights, which triggered this lambasting of so-called conservatives). But why? Same reason I house train my puppy. This, I remind you, is the so-called “right wing,” that venerates the Declaration of Independence as the greatest nation building document in the name of FREEDOM (and there are those who claim that colleges and universities are not “doing their jobs.”) Praise be! In November our great republic “gives” us our chance and RIGHT to vote. And remember, it is the most important election of your life! Cackle, cackle. Good luck.
