GOP ‘freak’ show has deadly result
Many “establishment” Republicans are embarrassed by the clowns in the presidential primary. Truly, it is freak show, but they only have themselves to blame.
The Republican Party has become the big tent for bigotry. It has mined the dregs of American society for votes for the last 40 years.
It has pandered to and provided political cover for racists, homophobes, xenophobes who hate Muslims, Mexicans, and now, Syrians. It made common cause with gun nuts in the NRA and misogynists who believe that women have no value other than as walking incubators for the human fetus.
Exhibit A is John Lewis Dear Jr., a resident of western North Carolina, an area that also produced Christian terrorist Eric Rudolph. Before he assaulted the Planned Parenthood in Colorado, killing three and wounding five more, he had an established history of misogyny, domestic assault on wives and girlfriends, and animal cruelty. He was an anti-government paranoid and hated President Obama.
