At times like this, I recall being told that the GOP is ruled by the iron fist of Rush Limbaugh, and the Tea Party, and other scary extremists that hate women.
And I just get a little confused.
Otherwise reasonably bright people will believe whatever the prevailing narrative the left puts out there at any given time.
Even in the dehumanizing barbarity and the revealing of the bald faced deceptions of Planned Parenthood the "right wing" is still the evil boogy man.
The Republican establishment won't buck the narrative and frequently is complicit in promoting the lies.
