It’s true. The fascist lunatics will win in November if the cosmetic pearl-clutchers and hand-wringers do what they usually do in an off year.

The folks on the left who anger me the most are the purists. “So-and-so doesn’t support this jot or that tittle, therefore both parties are alike and I’m sitting out the election in protest! Na na na.”
I ripped into one last night, using the 2000 election and the Nader voters as my example.
Not even Ivory soap claims to be 100% pure, but nothing less than 100% purity will satisfy them.
The other group which populates my anger-me-from-the-left list are the bozos who think the Presidential election is the only one that matters.
