What finally dawned on me this week is teh fact that the Right is absolutely afraid of everything.
They're afraid of gays,they're afraid of African_Americans,socialists(real and imagined),Asians,Messicans,and last,but not least,they are absolutely scared shitless of Teh Muslins(check Wonkette if you don't know).
The SuperMax prisons,which are largely a Republican creation,Leavenworth Prison,which sets in the middle of an Army base,and,more than likely,Hell itself cannot hold a bunch of guys who never had running water and electricity more than four hours a day before they got to Gitmo.
I use to think the GOP just used fear as a means to push their agenda.I am now convinced they're just a bunch of chickenshits.
