I received the following and can't resist passing it along. It underscores the general disconnect Republicans have achieved with the living reality of our world here in 2016.
Of course, given the mess after decades worth of right-wing Reaganomics stewardship
and its many decidedly counter-productive outcomes,
it's no wonder many try to hide and dream of better days.

Dear Peter,
The GOP hasn't exactly been subtle about their desire to return to their idealized version of America in the 1950's, but this mailer that just landed in Durango really takes things to a new level:
This was actually sent out in support of Rep. J. Paul Brown, an extremist legislator who would fit in better in a Mad Men world than in modern Colorado.
Brown deserves every bit of 50's nostalgia that accompanies that mail piece. He has consistently voted to gut environmental protections, prevent a woman's right to choose, and to put corporations ahead of Colorado families.
