Be afraid, be very afraid. Be afraid of Ebola, be afraid of Muslims, be afraid of a porous southern border, and be especially afraid of sneezing Muslims crossing that border.

Be afraid of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction, mosques in your neighborhood and trials for terrorists. Be afraid of the minimum wage, paying women equivalent wages, and background checks. Be afraid that birth control makes you "loose." Don't be afraid to let your boss decide your reproductive rights.

Be afraid that you're such an inadequate spouse marriage equality will destroy your marriage. Be afraid your faith is so weak you need God's name on money to remind you to pray. Be so afraid to compete with unions that you need big government to pass "right to mooch" so you can freeload.

America didn't earn greatness by caving to bigots and fear-mongers, afraid of the future and longing for the past. America didn't become the envy of the world by denying science.

Be afraid, be very afraid. Conservatives have scared Americans stupid.
