1. In the case of the right wing in this country...
... no. It doesn't hurt them a bit. The only pain they know is losing.

Cheers.

3. I guess it depends on how you're wired...
it hurts my brain to no end... but if someone is, say, a pathological liar, well, it probably doesn't hurt one bit.

6. Or, is there a relationship between Repugs and Alzheimers.
Black and White thinking brought on by a calcification of the brain causing the original bone-headedness.

I recall that fish swimming in schools were tested when one of the similar swimmmers brain was severed in the area that once made them want to swim in the same direction as the rest of the fish. Once cut the brain severed fish swam in its own directions, AND THE REST OF THE FISH FOLLOWED THE ONE FISH WITHOUT A FULL BRAIN.

Perhaps this is how we pick our leaders.

8. No, we are all hypocrites
Paying taxes to this government makes all of us hypocrites. It is necessary...better than self-delusion.
