Illuminating American Politics: What is Going On With The Right

As the Right ran rampant and reckless from 2000-2008 the rest of America let them have their day in the Sun. As they ran the countries business with their hands off approach to all things from Foreign Affairs to Financial Regulation, America was of a mind to give them the benefit of the doubt. Now that their ideas have proven to be a disaster for the country and we seek new direction, the Right acts like twelve year old school yard bullies. The rise in hate groups in 2009 rose an astounding 244%, with the number of hate groups reaching 942 across the nation. What motivates this astonishing increase in hate speak? The the Right Wing talk show bullies like Beck and Limbaugh do not help, speaking hate and intolerance on a daily basis. The GOP politicians are a big contributor shouting out rude and uncivil insults during public debate. Shouting out things like "Baby Killer!" or "You Lie!" do not make for good public example. These Dim-witted lawmakers on the Right must know that their hate and intolerance will be magnified through the megaphone of the mob mentality that they encourage.
When lawmakers who are merely trying to do the right thing for the American people as a whole, they should not have bricks thrown through their windows! They should not be called Faggot, Baby Killer, Nigger, Communist or any name for that matter! Their families and homes should not be exposed and targeted by dim-witted bubble heads who are seeking to cash in. These people should know better and that people will take what they say as real and act upon their paranoid delusions. We are a better people than this and have lived through horrible times of intolerance, enough so that we should as a nation know better! So again I ask, what is wrong with the Right!
