Wingnuts like corporate rule because they own the corporations that make the rules. They don't want more Government because more Government means more oversight and possibly less freedom to do what they want to do: i.e, run rip-shod over the public and make more money. Most wingnuts I've come across are strongly motivated by greed and for the most part could give a rat's ass about foreign policy or anything else that doesn't directly affect putting more money into their own pockets. They are not critical thinkers; thinking hurts too much. They are not compassionate, nor are they conservative in the sense of wanting to preserve anything of value for future generations. They care only about themselves and the here and now. And everyone must believe that America is incapable of wrongdoing, no matter the circumstances. You know the saying . . . "love it or leave it." Well, it was that stubborn American-style bullheadedness of these people that helped make my decision to leave much easier.

As for DKOS, I've lurked over there since the site's inception and believe its only goal is to get Dems elected. While some Kossacks continue to put a smile on my face with their wit and intellect,  those posters are few and far between. And many of the best have jumped ship by now. It's really much more satisfying to hang out here and follow y'all.
