[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]Arraya: It’s interesting, and I don’t know if you’ve noticed it, but the rightists on the board (Partypup, me) are finding more and more in common with the leftists/left leaning (you, Afx) as of late.
I’m attributing this to an awakening as to what the real threat in this country is and it isn’t each other. Nor is it gay marriage or gun control or any of those other wedge issues that Carville, Rove and Co. have thrown in front of us in the last 20 years to deflect us from the real problems we’re facing.
People are waking up to reality and at some point, societally speaking, this shit is going to hit critical mass. Then the fun starts.[/quote]
Amen, Allan. This is the point I’ve been trying to make. The outrage that we are seeing now is really beginning to cross party lines. And the Powers that Be are using a divide-and-conquer strategy that I believe is going to backfire. If blacks unite with whites and the left wing unites with the right wing, God help our “elected” officials. Obama was intended to be the linchpin of that divide and conquer strategy – an oblique effort to use racism to pit us against one another. But as you say, this shit is going to hit critical mass – this year.
