Are the Gloves finally coming off?

"The Far Right stands for a weak America - weakened by significantly underfunding and compromising homeland security, by sleeping at the wheel rather than working hard to face up to real terrorist threats, by promoting those who slept at the wheel while terrorists schemed and attacked us and firing those who pointed out the truth, by promoting those who authorized anti-American acts of criminality, by breeding new terrorist havens by attacking the wrong enemy under false pretenses, by dramatically undermining the military with appalling policies, by aiding the enemy's ranks by supporting or condoning torture, by delaying or underfunding protective armor and gear for heroic American troops fighting wars to keep America safe and using the money to corruptly feed hyper-rich campaign contributors instead, by institutionalizing immorality and corruption in virtually everything they touch, thereby ensuring the survival of the greedy and most well connected - not the survival of the fittest, and by insidiously or overtly undermining Western capitalism and the basic social and economic safety net in America.

The distinction is clear. The time has come for real moral clarity."
