I see on One America News that Michelle Bachman is introducing a bill in the house to sanction the Muslim Brotherhood. This won’t get past the Senate, and if it should, would never get past Obama. Erick Stakelbeck, in The Brotherhood says the Brotherhood is entrenched in the administration.
Actions of late, support that theory.
One America News is an unusual network. No advertising, except itself, all the women are young, beautiful and have long hair. And her hair always hangs over her left or right shoulder, not both. It is a conservative network, of course.
Yet when you’re talking with Democrats about the current division in the nation, they’ll inevitably start out with (and blame almost exclusively) the GOP allegedly because it’s become so much more conservative/right-wing.
And I just think that’s not the case. What we’re seeing is a growing libertarian streak that’s both more conservative and more liberal in some areas than your traditional Republican party. How conservatives reconcile all of that (if they can) remains to be seen.
But the Democrats definitely have become more liberal in the past 1-2 decades.
Not to mention ornery. 😉
But then conservatives tend to be more ornery these days, too. 😦
