Do you get a sense in this forum that right wing ideology has jumped the shark? (conspiracy, revolution)

A bit too early to say, but it is less strident than in the last couple years.
I think they know the dog won't hunt.
It would be good to see more moderate conservatives reemerge. Then we could have a decent conversation without all the silliness (Example: RWNJ#1-Obama is the antichrist!!!, RWNJ#2-No way, he is Adolf Hitler!!!).

The USA as a whole is losing some of the elements of the extreme right and tea party types, but I don't see it happening here on CD. There are just as many rude, over the top, twisted, and grossly exaggerated rightwing comments as ever ...... maybe more. We've even got the revolutionary types now - remember all the praise for Dorner and the vaguely expressed wishes that more violence would happen?
Not all that long ago we had stories about how Christie was dead in the water, done for. The last poll I saw had him around 74%. Recent polls have shown Raul Emmanual falling fast in the polls.
Liberals have always controlled the youth via education.
Yeah, education is one great big conspiracy to indoctrinate the youth with radical left wing socialist Marixst anti-colonial communist Saul Alinsky new world order ******* Satanic Muslim fascist homosexual propaganda like math and grammar.
I've been here for years and I'm just starting get a vague sense that right wing ideology is on the decline. Right wing posters aren't as unified anymore. Maybe some are learning they've been taken for a ride? They seem less numerous, and more elderly every year. The real dead enders, (birthers, Obama conspiracists, crusty old farts accusing liberals of being "communists") are on the borderline of being considered outcasts by what's left of mainstream conservatives. This just goes beyond the last election. I think time has finally caught up with this backwards ideology.

I am pretty sure the Dorner worshippers were more of a left wing bunch of fools than anything else.
