Yeah, I dunno about the right word either...it can change with the circumstances...
Ignorant? No, they repeat their mistakes, the normal ignorant person is capable of recognizing once the same action results in the same outcome twice, they move on to making new mistakes...
Stupid? No, they exhibit the ability to perform abstract thought at times, sure, we may not like the motivation or purpose, but there is an intelligence being applied...
Disingenuous? Yeah, definitely, they are not being candid with us on purpose...we are spoon-fed what they think we want to hear, but their actions illustrate what they really care about - power, position and prestige...they are ideologically impure, it is why they lecture us like ignorant kids when we questions their acts (you fail to understand we do not have the votes, the reality is, it is unrealistic to expect...blah blah blah...all effing excuses!) and why they react so harshly when ideological candidates (see Tea Party and real conservatives, not RINOs/AINOs!) are put up to challenge them!
Hard to trust duplicitous people to do the right thing, eh?!
Gotta clean out the trash, that's all it ever comes down to, we (the people) have just not been that focused on it...
And right now I think a lot of focus is on sweeping out the trash on the Dem side, which is fine, but when do we take care of the trash in the GOP?
