The Malady of the West

Do Republicans have any values apart transferring wealth from the many who create it to the few who own them?  They no longer pay lip service to the values they daily desecrate: freedom, democracy, reason, elections, separation of powers, representative government, rule of law (international and local), education, public health, civil liberties and human rights, truthfulness. Tyrants and invaders are extolled, the dispossessed mocked and robbed. Thugs, rapists, and felons: in place of the American flag, they give us fascist salutes.
