If "Who Smelled It - dealt It", then "You Can't Fix Stupid" Indeed.

During the last year I watched with astonishment and frustration how the republicans openly sabotaged the president's and democrats' initiatives, without offering any real alternatives, while shamelessly claiming higher moral ground and common purpose.
I was frequently offended by their phony "foul play" cries, staged "spontaneous" protests, intentional misrepresentation of facts, outright lies and fabrications, and their unholy determination to get back in power not by earning people's respect and trust by doing the right thing, but by sabotaging everything and everyone who is not on their band wagon, counting on the flawed two-party system to make them "the good guy" by default. Just like the authoritarian socialist regimes in Eastern Europe after WWII, GOP has set out to control the public opinion through fear mongering, lies, and blunt intolerance of anything and anyone who does not subscribe to their far right ideology. I've only paid attention to politics for the last couple of years, but even to me it's more than clear that open-mindedness and true freedom of ideas are seen by GOP as the biggest threat of all.
I always thought that most people can see right through the phony charade and call the things as they really are but if I have to judge by recent reports in the media, apparently a lot of people are willing to forget what were things like just over a year ago, how we got into this mess, who was in charge when the things fell apart, and how did all that look and feel back then.
I still don't know what exactly approval rating means but if GOP's approval rating is getting better, than clearly the word "approval" is being used with irony or by mistake. What in God's name had GOP done for the last ONE YEAR, to deserve better approval rating??? All they did was stall and disrupt as much as they can, without even seriously considering helping the country get out of the hot mess they themselves got us into. The only thing they've shown concern about is getting the democrats to fail, because then they can claim being the better choice by default. I haven't seen even a shred of remorse shown by GOP for bankrupting the economy, or a good will to help fix anything. On a contrary - they are trying to spin the bad news and blame the disaster on others, shamelessly claiming that they are the solution. I personally find this to be one of the greatest insults I've ever been subjected to!!!
The sad thing is that the people who are hurting the most by the GOP caused recession are the ones most willing to consider GOP again after only one year break from the disaster called "W".
How stupid or naive does one have to be to do that? Seriously, what do you folks think they will do differently this time around?
