ajacksonian: “That effort to ridicule and demean Joe is a direct attack on the blue collar and working middle class of America. They have just been told that they don’t deserve to be listened to, to be treated as fellow citizens and if you have the temerity to ask a question of a politician you will be raked over the hot coals, your life questioned, your skills doubted, and political pressure will be brought to make your life a living hell.”

welcome to my world. had to go incognito in order to effectively educate. otherwise there is no doubt they would have probably actually shown up on my doorstep in an effort to intimidate. when i got “uppity”, they made a few overt moves to make it seem visually i fully supported obama. ha.

keep repeating to everyone who will listen: they DO NOT respect the individual.

at all.

AT ALL.

if you dare to differ to them as yourself, BE PREPARED to face outright hate in the rhetoric you receive back. it is as if they have been trained that aggressively abusive bullying changes people’s minds.
