Don't forget spicing it with the salt of liberal tears. The 'Us vs. Them' aspect has been very important in the Republican message. They have worked hard at making politics into a sport where it doesn't matter how the game is played as long as your team wins.
So true. It's what happens when their politicians need to divert and juke their way around the fact that they've been exploiting their own working class constituency for the betterment of the very wealthy's portfolios for nigh on decades now.
These thoroughly corrupted politico's of theirs are forced to keep driving home this "Us vs. Them" dodge because as far as their working class folks are concerned they've been thoroughly played into accepting the idea that their lives are somehow better off financially because their lives would be much worse if the despised Democrats had anything to do with it. It's that old "give them a shiny object to fixate on while we rob them blind" ploy that their constituency keeps falling for time after time.
Those shiny objects I referred to? Well there's hate the immigrants object and hate the gays, fear the non-whites, despise the gun grabbers, hate the baby killers and hate the anti-Christ heathen who would burn every Christian church to the ground shiny objects just for starters. You know, all of those single issue things that distract away from the fact that their Repub blue collar constituency's wallets are being emptied into the very wealthy's pockets and their pensions and entitlements are in imminent danger of being hacked to pieces and converted into more corporate welfare and tax free monies for the wealthy.
