To Repubs voter ignorance truly is bliss and is their means to power and for the retention thereof. A drooling, flag-waving zombie is the perfect voter to Repubs. FOX proliferates and maintains this creature for the Repubs..

It could very well be TD’s point of view considering a lot of material on the site sometimes suggests it is run by liberals who will be happy to have a Republican dressed as a Democrat in power as long as it isn’t an official Republican.
