Ain't gonna happen. Clouds won't be parting, there will be no shafts of penetrating sunlight appearing on non-fact-believer foreheads, no sudden appearance of brightening light bulbs overhead, no swirls of St. Elmo's Fire ambling through to expose Republican minds to instantaneous and thunderstruck activation.
Save your breath, save your time, save your mind: All of them are terrible to waste.
Here's the reason: Reason does not even one lick of good in swaying Republicans to your logical way of thinking. You might as well be sputtering in Sumerian, muttering in Macedonian, babbling away in Babylonian.
It all boils down to a seeming attack of, well, zombies -- feel free to say, "Aha! I knew it all along!" as much as you like, and until you feel better.
The zombies in this case are "smart idiots," as mentioned in the superb article noted below. If you have time for only one more article in the next hour or day, or this week or year, this is the one to go to. Seriously. This is not said lightly, you know.
The article below will amply reward your miniscule investment in reading time with savings of years in wasted time, and saved brain cells, and aggravation never created. If you are really short on time, stop reading this piece here, and go read the one noted below, right away. Not kidding. Won't be offended. Scout's honor.
