It shows the difference the two parties have embraced: appeals to the very worst versus appelas to our intellect and sense of <insert the platitude of the day>.  Scaring the bejesus out of people works really well at arousing passions, but it creates many more problems than is cures (if it cures any at all).  The more reasoned approach puts even the interested to sleep in short order, though it pushes us toward real though boring solutiins.  And its' not uniques to the USA.  Look at Liz Truss the new UK Prime Minister for a picturebook ideal of the scare 'em model.

I wish it was otherwise.

If scaring the bejesus out of people doesn't work forever and causes more problems than it cures then maybe you guys should stop doing it as much as you guys have been doing it. Like I said, I know all of you guys pretty well and you've got a pretty good idea about me and how nasty it would be to seriously tangle with me or anyone like me in real life. You want to know what that senile dumb fucker that you and everyone like you elected did, he moved us one step closer to millions of Americans having the right to kill your dumb asses and essentially destroying/removing your guys' primary means of survival these days. Ever wondered what you would do if/when big blue government financially imploded like the Soviet Union, would you be able to survive without it at this point? Scary huh, best you ignore and continue to go along with all the stupid shit *fascist looking shit, communist looking shit, quasi socialist shit" associated with today's left and  the Democratic party of today. I'll see you again next month and see if any of you have wised up/ pulled your head out of your butt yet.

Again, don't bother.
