A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A REPUBLICAN
By John Gray

Joe gets up at 6:00am to prepare his morning coffee. He fills his pot full of good clean drinking water because some liberal fought for minimum water quality standards.

He takes his daily medication with his first swallow of coffee. His medications are safe to take because some liberal fought to insure their safety and work as advertised.

All but $10.00 of his medications are paid for by his employers medical plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance, now Joe gets it too. He prepares his morning breakfast, bacon and eggs this day. Joe's bacon is safe to eat because some liberal fought for laws to regulate the meat packing industry.

Joe takes his morning shower reaching for his shampoo; His bottle is properly labeled with every ingredient and the amount of its contents because some liberal fought for his right to know what he was putting on his body and how much it contained. Joe dresses, walks outside and takes a deep breath. The air he breathes is clean because some tree-hugging liberal fought for laws to stop industries from polluting our air.

He walks to the subway station for his government subsidized ride to work; it saves him considerable money in parking and transportation fees. You see, some liberal fought for affordable public transportation, which gives everyone the opportunity to be a contributor.

Joe begins his work day; he has a good job with excellent pay, medicals benefits, retirement, paid holidays and vacation because some liberal union members fought and died for these working standards.
Joe's employer pays these standards because Joe's employer doesn't want his employees to call the union.

If Joe is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed he'll get a worker compensation or unemployment check because some liberal didn't think he should loose his home because of his temporary misfortune.

It's noon time, Joe needs to make a Bank Deposit so he can pay some bills. Joe's deposit is federally insured by the FSLIC because some liberal wanted to protect Joe's money from unscrupulous bankers who ruined the banking system before the depression.

Joe has to pay his Fannie Mae underwritten Mortgage and his below market federal student loan because some stupid liberal decided that Joe and the government would be better off if he was educated and earned more money over his lifetime.

Joe is home from work, he plans to visit his father this evening at his farm home in the country. He gets in his car for the drive to dad's; his car is among the safest in the world because some liberal fought for car safety standards. He drives on nice paved roads that make the trip possible because some dumb liberal fought to have public infrastructure put in place because it allows a modern society to travel, transport it's goods and just function in general.

He arrives at his boyhood home. He was the third generation to live in the house financed by Farmers Home Administration because bankers didn't want to make rural loans. The house didn't have electric until some big government liberal stuck his nose where it didn't belong and demanded rural electrification. (Those rural Republicans would still be sitting in the dark)

He is happy to see his dad who is now retired. His dad lives on Social Security and his union pension because some liberal made sure he could take care of himself so Joe wouldn't have to. After his visit with dad he gets back in his car for the ride home.

He turns on a radio talk show, the host keeps saying that liberals are bad and conservatives are good (He doesn't tell Joe that his beloved Republicans have fought against every protection and benefit Joe enjoys throughout his day). Joe agrees, "We don't need those big government liberals ruining our lives; after all, I'm a self-made man who believes everyone should take care of themselves, just like I have."

Hmmm.....who told my son he was fighting for a lost cause while he was in Iraq with his fellow Marines? Harry Reid...a liberal ("the war is lost" just before the surge shoved this back down his throat). Who tells my kids that it is okay for woman to be intimate with woman and men with men and that same sex marriages are right...liberals. Who tells me I can't display a cross in my yard, display the 10 Commandments from which many of our laws are based in the courthouse, and that because of political correctness - my Christmas tree has to come down from the town square but every other faith including those that want to destroy our country - not just its freedoms - can display whatever they like...a liberal. Who says that "one nation under God" must be removed from the pledge of allegiance, and that my children don't have to stand or even say the pledge in school now if they don't want to...a liberal. Who wants to give the invaders from the south the benefits from my tax dollars but if I want them sent back where they came from until they come in legally I am somehow wrong...a liberal. Who as President blindly disarmed our country while our greatest threat continued to build their military while setting in place the groundwork for our current day dependence on foreign fuel sources - on those countries who would like to see this country destroyed...a liberal. Who told my children and the rest of the free world that oral sex is really not sex and he did "not have sex with that woman"....a liberal. Who wants to jack my taxes up and take away more of my hard earned pay to fund those who refuse to work...a liberal. Who wants to take away the life of a child that is fully developed and ready to be born with partial birth abortion...a liberal. Who wants to give enemy combatants the same rights as those of the U.S. Citizen and set them free so they can again go out and fight against our men and woman in uniform...a liberal. Who is willing to give our country away and deny the rights and freedoms that 200 years of Americans before them have fought, died and strived for...a liberal. What current Speaker of the House closed Congress for a break so she could go on tour and promote her book when this country is facing a true energy crisis rather than staying and getting an energy policy passed and into effect...That's right...Nancy Pelosi a liberal. So, go ahead and blame "big oil" for $5.00 per gallon fuel. Forget the fact they are making less on a gallon of gas than the government is and that it is the world market cost of crude oil that is driving up the record costs - not the oil companies. Oh yeah...you won't hear your precious liberals speak the truth about that one. Because they want to do what all liberals want, to control every aspect of your life from their role in the Government including the running of the oil industry. There's a bright idea.

True liberalism equals socialism...period. If that's the kind of Government and country you want, there are plenty in the world to choose from...just look for the unhappiest people on Earth and join them. Let's see...if socialized everything is so wonderful...why the heck are thousands upon thousands trying to get into THIS country every day?! Socialized medicine? Why would anyone be a doctor when their pay and their working conditions be dictated by the Government and guaranteed to be lower than that of the free-market based healthcare system. Why would Canadians, the British, the French, etc. flock to this country when they have a healthcare crisis? Maybe because we DON'T have socialized medicine and our doctors are the best in the world! we When you actually grow up and have to support a family, then you see that your (GOD FORBID) new President and his socialist policies, and those of his equally socialist Vice-President take away even more of your pay to give to useless programs that encourage those who won't work and the illegal crossing of invaders from other countries and give them the same rights as you as a U.S. Citizen and you find that you are no longer able to provide what you should for your family because their programs have sucked your wallet dry....thank a liberal. Keep thinking this way then you'll know who to thank when you end up working for the illegal immigrant who just took away your house.

Go ahead and let your liberals in Congress take away your tax cuts that have proven over time to stimulate a sagging economy. Go ahead and increase taxes on corporations and the wealthy in this country and absolutely guarantee that more businesses move off-shore or close because the cost to do business outweighs their income. Who do you think pays more in taxes, the least among us in wage earners or the most? The more that people spend, the more the economy grows and the more the Government makes in revenue, thus reducing debt and supporting spending on Government programs. The more someone is taxed, the less they have to spend and the more they try to save - which has the total opposite effect on the economy. Simple, proven economics.

Next time you forward something without verifying its accuracy first, cut and paste or make blind statements to justify a flawed way of thinking...look at history and look at the facts. SPAM is SPAM whether posted on a forum or slammed to your email.

Honestly, the best response to that type of ignorant propaganda would have been no response at all but after having that crap beat into my ears from virtually every George Soros funded news outlet and the Moveon.org group because they have the money to buy the media, sometimes you have to say enough is enough.

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.

You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.

You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.

You cannot build character and courage by taking away men's initiative and independence.

You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.

Hmmm.....

"who told my son he was fighting for a lost cause. . ."
Who LIED to the American people to get us into Iraq, saying they were behind 9/11?

"Who tells my kids that it is okay for woman to be intimate with woman. . ."
Who tells the American people they are the party of "Family Values" and then suffer from a "wide stance" in the men's room, or just have a little fun texting with the underage male pages; should I go on with this one I could fill a page with people from the "do as I say, not as I do" Party?

"Who tells me I can't display a cross in my yard, display the 10 Commandments. . ."
Really, are you that stupid? NO ONE. Not even the furthest leftwing libereral will tell you what you can put in you own yard. Douche.

"Who says that "one nation under God" must be removed. . ."
It wasn't in there in there first place, our nation used it just fine for 59 years before it was changed from a national pledge to a national prayer.

"Who wants to give the invaders from the south the benefits from my tax dollars. . ."
That would be the conservatives. Seriously, if you wanted to really get rid of illegals, it would be as simple as fining the people who make money off of them. If it became too expensive to hire them = no jobs.

"Who as President blindly disarmed our country. . ."
Who? I've been around a while, but I can't recall a time our country was "disarmed"?

". . .while setting in place the groundwork for our current day dependence on foreign fuel. . ."
Every President of the last century?

"Who told my children and the rest of the free world that oral sex is really not sex and he did "not have sex with that woman". . ."
Got me there. But I'd rather have a President who f*cked an intern and brought the deficit down than one who let the deficit ballon out of control while he f*cked me.

"Who wants to jack my taxes up and take away more of my hard earned pay. . ."
If you make more than $250,000, I'd guess Obama.
If you make less then $250,000, I'd guess McCain.

"Who wants to take away the life of a child that is fully developed and ready to be born with partial birth abortion. . ."
NO ONE, DUMBASS. Partial birth abortion is a political term, not a medical term. These so called "partial birth abortions" as of 2000 accounted for less then .2% of abortions, and in virtually every case it was used to remove a DEAD fetus or a fetus that suffered from hydrocephalus; according to a survey by The Guttmacher Institute.

"Who wants to give enemy combatants the same rights as those of the U.S. Citizen. . ."
Who has taken away the rights of Americans making it possible for you, me or anyone else AS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN to be held INDEFINITELY WITHOUT TRAIL OR DUE PROCESS by simply calling you an "enemy combatant"?

"Who is willing to give our country away and deny the rights and freedoms that 200 years of Americans before them have fought, died and strived for. . ."
If you are refering to the Patriot Act, that would be. . . the CONSERVATIVES, if you are refering to something else, you need to clarify - and reference exactly what you are talking about.

"What current Speaker of the House closed Congress for a break so she could go on tour and promote her book when this country is facing a true energy crisis. . ."
What President, in probably the largest crisis we have ever faced, when informed about a terrorist attack into the World Trade Towers, for 8 to 20 minutes (sources differ on how long he) did NOTHING?

"So, go ahead and blame "big oil" for $5.00 per gallon fuel. Forget the fact they are making less on a gallon of gas than the government is and that it is the world market cost of crude oil that is driving up the record costs - not the oil companies. . ."
Ah-hem, when did it hit "$5.00" per gallon? You must have missed the evening news the night this aired, but your "big oil" has made record PROFITS the last three years in a row. Yeah, I know what you mean. I KNOW, in my heart, they would sell it for less if only SOMEHOW they only could.

"True liberalism equals socialism...period."
So; true conservatism must equal fascism, right? (Man, I hope I got that one right! But my interwebs say those words aren't synonyms. . . strange.)

"Let's see...if socialized everything is so wonderful... Why would Canadians, the British, the French, etc. flock to this country when they have a healthcare crisis?"
What? No reference to back this statement up? I know Americans are going both north and south to take advantage of Mexico's and Canada's healthcare but I can't remember the last time I heard a story about the French "flocking" to the US for health care. Maybe you could could define "flocking" with a number. With a reference.
And if socialized anything is so awful, why don't we privatize the police and fire department? I'm tired of my tax dollars going to support those people who are careless enough to let their property catch fire or dumb enough to be the victems of crime or accidents. LET THE PEOPLE WHO USE IT PAY FOR IT! (you may have missed it, but that last part was sarcasm.)

"Maybe because we DON'T have socialized medicine and our doctors are the best in the world!"
Maybe our doctors are the best in the world, but our health care system? Look at infant mortality rates, obesity and desease death rates. WE"RE (not) NUMBER ONE!

"we (sic) When you actually grow up and have to support a family, then you see that your (GOD FORBID) new President and his socialist policies, and those of his equally socialist Vice-President take away even more of your pay to give to useless programs. . ."
Yeah, after what I've experienced with your President, I'm kind of looking forward to that.

"Keep thinking this way then you'll know who to thank when you end up working for the illegal immigrant who just took away your house."
Why does most everything I own say "Made in China" - I think it's the conservatives that keep touting "free trade".

"Go ahead and let your liberals in Congress take away your tax cuts that have proven over time to stimulate a sagging economy."
Got any numbers or facts to support this statement?

"Go ahead and increase taxes on corporations and the wealthy in this country and absolutely guarantee that more businesses move off-shore or close because the cost to do business outweighs their income."
I'm sure that has an impact, and it certainly makes a GREAT excuse, but I think it more like why pay an American $26 (plus benefits like health insurance, retirement and pensions) when you can pay someone in el Salvador a flat rate of $2 an hour? And if you move your company out of country, why not an import tariff?

"Who do you think pays more in taxes, the least among us in wage earners or the most?"
I know that in my income bracket I'm carrying more than my share in health insurance; the rich don't need it, the poor don't pay anything anyway (and/or they just die).

"The more that people spend, the more the economy grows and the more the Government makes in revenue, thus reducing debt and supporting spending on Government programs."
Thanks for making my pro-union pitch for me. I would like to add, though, if you are anti-union because it drives prices up; and you work for somebodyelse (i.e. not self-employed or a business owner) you should march right into your bosses' office tomorrow and demand a pay cut, in order to do your part in keeping prices down!

"The more someone is taxed, the less they have to spend and the more they try to save - which has the total opposite effect on the economy. Simple, proven economics."
Ooooh, you have an Economics Degree, where did you graduate from and what year?

"Next time you forward something without verifying its accuracy first, cut and paste or make blind statements to justify a flawed way of thinking...look at history and look at the facts. SPAM is SPAM whether posted on a forum or slammed to your email."

Funny, you didn't refute anything specifically and the stuff you brought up (hopefully you've noticed by now) you didn't back up with any facts, figures, or references.

Maybe when you post something you should take your own advice:

"Honestly, the best response to that type of ignorant propaganda would have been no response at all. . ."

Liberals and off-roading isn't exactly a great mixture. Just to stir up shit isn't really constructive in my opinion. Of course like about 90% of opinions on here it doesn't account for much.

"who told my son he was fighting for a lost cause. . ."


NANCY PELOSI, TED KENNEDY, AND JOHN KERRY for starters




Who LIED to the American people to get us into Iraq, saying they were behind 9/11?


John Kerry was before it, before he was "against" it.



"Who tells my kids that it is okay for woman to be intimate with woman. . ."


LARRY FLINT ( Democrat )




Who tells the American people they are the party of "Family Values" and then suffer from a "wide stance" in the men's room, or just have a little fun texting with the underage male pages; should I go on with this one I could fill a page with people from the "do as I say, not as I do" Party?



Well close he's a gay governor that came out o' the closet after he got caught....hmmmm please note party affiliation :D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_McGreevey


"Who tells me I can't display a cross in my yard, display the 10 Commandments. . ."
Really, are you that stupid? NO ONE. Not even the furthest leftwing libereral will tell you what you can put in you own yard. Douche.



So your not familiar with the ACLU ? They are about as "liberal" as you can get !





"Who says that "one nation under God" must be removed. . ."
It wasn't in there in there first place, our nation used it just fine for 59 years before it was changed from a national pledge to a national prayer.


I believe that was tried in the ninth circuit court of appeals...the most liberal circuit in the nation based in Kalifornia.




"Who wants to give the invaders from the south the benefits from my tax dollars. . ."


NANCY PELOSI, HILLARY CLINTON, PATTY MURRAY ( oh and Patty here also said osama bin laden was doing "wonderful" things like building hospitals and schools for children






"Who as President blindly disarmed our country. . ."

After the massive build up which Ronald Reagan ( Republican ) helped create it was very strong and doing well....until Bill Clinton came into office and the bases started shutting down. This was pushed by his lovely wife Hillary





"Who told my children and the rest of the free world that oral sex is really not sex and he did "not have sex with that woman". . ."

Please refer to the "porn" industry there..... ever watch any? The man your referring to, and complaining about is the same one you "prop" up as being a really good guy in your next statement.


Got me there. But I'd rather have a President who f*cked an intern and brought the deficit down than one who let the deficit ballon out of control while he f*cked me.






Bill Clinton gets a pass on this one since he inherited, for the most part, a perfect economy. IF you believe that a president has that much power over the country that would be a liberal teacher feeding you pablum.


Nice try though...

"Who wants to jack my taxes up and take away more of my hard earned pay.


That would be every last politician on the planet.




"Who wants to give enemy combatants the same rights as those of the U.S. Citizen. . ."
Who has taken away the rights of Americans making it possible for you, me or anyone else AS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN to be held INDEFINITELY WITHOUT TRAIL OR DUE PROCESS by simply calling you an "enemy combatant"?



The congress and senate both voted on and passed the bill so that would be democrat and republican alike.



"What current Speaker of the House closed Congress for a break so she could go on tour and promote her book when this country is facing a true energy crisis. . ."


That would be NANCY PELOSI (DEMOCRAT) you dumb ass !




What President, in probably the largest crisis we have ever faced, when informed about a terrorist attack into the World Trade Towers, for 8 to 20 minutes (sources differ on how long he) did NOTHING?




What president sat on his hands for over a year while the men and women of the military we held captive in Tehran (sp) ? Yeah I know you probably weren't even born yet.









Funny, you didn't refute anything specifically and the stuff you brought up (hopefully you've noticed by now) you didn't back up with any facts, figures, or references.


I DID :)



"Honestly, the best response to that type of ignorant propaganda would have been no response at all. . ."

Great liberal talking points. Find facts to support them. "Douche"?? Repeated "F*cked"?? "Dumbass"??? How nice. Very mature response. When you grow up and can have a debate without that, let us know. Someone mentioned in a previous post about when faced with facts you would resort to name calling and personal attacks. Point made. You can't disagree without resorting to that?

There are countless counter-points based on fact for your rebuttals below such as SALT and SALT II treaty by your bud Jimmy Carter (he destroyed countless armaments while the USSR continued to ignore the treaty they signed and increased their arsenal - and without the measures taken by Regan, you'd likely be speaking Russian now). HE was the one who betrayed the Shah of Iran and allowed Khomeini to come to power setting the stage for the mess there now. It was his "fuel conservation" measures that restricted domestic drilling, exploration and the halt on U.S. refineries. Clinton did nothing for the deficit. There were no financial policies put in place by his administration that did this. He was in the right place at the right time and like every other liberal President before him, he only increased taxes. He rode the wave of the Internet and the 'Dot Com" companies and the millions of dollars in revenue these failures created for the Government. Which after they all went to crap, left us in a recession as a parting gift for the current administration. And "your President"? You aren't an American I take it? Come from another country did you? Just as Clinton was "our President" so was/is/shall be every other President whether you voted for them, agree with them or not. Not all with conservative views are Republicans and not all Republicans have conservative views. Maybe that's a little tough for you to see through your anger. Do you not think that anyone who is a conservative was outraged by the items you cited in your "family values" argument?

Too many easy counter-points to go into again. But, what would be the point? I'd have better interaction with a concrete wall, with the exception that a concrete wall doesn't resort to insults to make its point. We'll just revisit this in four years when your candidate has had his turn at the wheel.




"who told my son he was fighting for a lost cause. . ."

"Who tells my kids that it is okay for woman to be intimate with woman. . ."

"Who says that "one nation under God" must be removed. . ."
It wasn't in there in there first place, our nation used it just fine for 59 years before it was changed from a national pledge to a national prayer.

"Who wants to give the invaders from the south the benefits from my tax dollars. . ."
That would be the conservatives. Seriously, if you wanted to really get rid of illegals, it would be as simple as fining the people who make money off of them. If it became too expensive to hire them = no jobs.

"Who as President blindly disarmed our country. . ."
Who? I've been around a while, but I can't recall a time our country was "disarmed"?

". . .while setting in place the groundwork for our current day dependence on foreign fuel. . ."
Every President of the last century?

"Who told my children and the rest of the free world that oral sex is really not sex and he did "not have sex with that woman". . ."
Got me there. But I'd rather have a President who f*cked an intern and brought the deficit down than one who let the deficit ballon out of control while he f*cked me.

"Who wants to jack my taxes up and take away more of my hard earned pay. . ."
If you make more than $250,000, I'd guess Obama.
If you make less then $250,000, I'd guess McCain.

"Who wants to take away the life of a child that is fully developed and ready to be born with partial birth abortion. . ."
NO ONE, DUMBASS. Partial birth abortion is a political term, not a medical term. These so called "partial birth abortions" as of 2000 accounted for less then .2% of abortions, and in virtually every case it was used to remove a DEAD fetus or a fetus that suffered from hydrocephalus; according to a survey by The Guttmacher Institute.

"Who wants to give enemy combatants the same rights as those of the U.S. Citizen. . ."
Who has taken away the rights of Americans making it possible for you, me or anyone else AS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN to be held INDEFINITELY WITHOUT TRAIL OR DUE PROCESS by simply calling you an "enemy combatant"?

"Who is willing to give our country away and deny the rights and freedoms that 200 years of Americans before them have fought, died and strived for. . ."
If you are refering to the Patriot Act, that would be. . . the CONSERVATIVES, if you are refering to something else, you need to clarify - and reference exactly what you are talking about.

"What current Speaker of the House closed Congress for a break so she could go on tour and promote her book when this country is facing a true energy crisis. . ."
What President, in probably the largest crisis we have ever faced, when informed about a terrorist attack into the World Trade Towers, for 8 to 20 minutes (sources differ on how long he) did NOTHING?

"So, go ahead and blame "big oil" for $5.00 per gallon fuel. Forget the fact they are making less on a gallon of gas than the government is and that it is the world market cost of crude oil that is driving up the record costs - not the oil companies. . ."
Ah-hem, when did it hit "$5.00" per gallon? You must have missed the evening news the night this aired, but your "big oil" has made record PROFITS the last three years in a row. Yeah, I know what you mean. I KNOW, in my heart, they would sell it for less if only SOMEHOW they only could.

"True liberalism equals socialism...period."
So; true conservatism must equal fascism, right? (Man, I hope I got that one right! But my interwebs say those words aren't synonyms. . . strange.)

"Let's see...if socialized everything is so wonderful... Why would Canadians, the British, the French, etc. flock to this country when they have a healthcare crisis?"
What? No reference to back this statement up? I know Americans are going both north and south to take advantage of Mexico's and Canada's healthcare but I can't remember the last time I heard a story about the French "flocking" to the US for health care. Maybe you could could define "flocking" with a number. With a reference.
And if socialized anything is so awful, why don't we privatize the police and fire department? I'm tired of my tax dollars going to support those people who are careless enough to let their property catch fire or dumb enough to be the victems of crime or accidents. LET THE PEOPLE WHO USE IT PAY FOR IT! (you may have missed it, but that last part was sarcasm.)

"Maybe because we DON'T have socialized medicine and our doctors are the best in the world!"
Maybe our doctors are the best in the world, but our health care system? Look at infant mortality rates, obesity and desease death rates. WE"RE (not) NUMBER ONE!

"we (sic) When you actually grow up and have to support a family, then you see that your (GOD FORBID) new President and his socialist policies, and those of his equally socialist Vice-President take away even more of your pay to give to useless programs. . ."
Yeah, after what I've experienced with your President, I'm kind of looking forward to that.

"Keep thinking this way then you'll know who to thank when you end up working for the illegal immigrant who just took away your house."
Why does most everything I own say "Made in China" - I think it's the conservatives that keep touting "free trade".

"Go ahead and let your liberals in Congress take away your tax cuts that have proven over time to stimulate a sagging economy."
Got any numbers or facts to support this statement?

"Go ahead and increase taxes on corporations and the wealthy in this country and absolutely guarantee that more businesses move off-shore or close because the cost to do business outweighs their income."
I'm sure that has an impact, and it certainly makes a GREAT excuse, but I think it more like why pay an American $26 (plus benefits like health insurance, retirement and pensions) when you can pay someone in el Salvador a flat rate of $2 an hour? And if you move your company out of country, why not an import tariff?

"Who do you think pays more in taxes, the least among us in wage earners or the most?"
I know that in my income bracket I'm carrying more than my share in health insurance; the rich don't need it, the poor don't pay anything anyway (and/or they just die).

"The more that people spend, the more the economy grows and the more the Government makes in revenue, thus reducing debt and supporting spending on Government programs."
Thanks for making my pro-union pitch for me. I would like to add, though, if you are anti-union because it drives prices up; and you work for somebodyelse (i.e. not self-employed or a business owner) you should march right into your bosses' office tomorrow and demand a pay cut, in order to do your part in keeping prices down!

"The more someone is taxed, the less they have to spend and the more they try to save - which has the total opposite effect on the economy. Simple, proven economics."
Ooooh, you have an Economics Degree, where did you graduate from and what year?

"Next time you forward something without verifying its accuracy first, cut and paste or make blind statements to justify a flawed way of thinking...look at history and look at the facts. SPAM is SPAM whether posted on a forum or slammed to your email."

Funny, you didn't refute anything specifically and the stuff you brought up (hopefully you've noticed by now) you didn't back up with any facts, figures, or references.

Maybe when you post something you should take your own advice:

"Honestly, the best response to that type of ignorant propaganda would have been no response at all. . ."

Subject: They have re-written even the children's stories.
Once upon a time, on a farm in Virginia , there was a
little red hen who scratched about the barnyard until
she uncovered quite a few grains of wheat.

She called all of her Democrat neighbors together and
said, 'If we plant this wheat, we shall have bread to eat.
Who will help me plant it?'
'Not I,' said the cow.
'Not I,' said the duck
'Not I,' said the pig.
'Not I,' said the goose.

'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen, and
so she did.
The wheat grew very tall and ripened into golden grain.
'Who will help me reap my wheat?' asked the little red hen.

'Not I,' said the duck.
'Out of my classification,' said the pig.
'I'd lose my seniority,' said the cow
'I'd lose my unemployment compensation,' said the goose.

'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen,
and so she did.
At last it came time to bake the bread.
'Who will help me bake the bread?' asked the little red hen
'That would be overtime for me,' said the cow.
'I'd lose my welfare benefits,' said the duck.
'I'm a dropout and never learned how,' said the pig.
'If I'm to be the only helper, that's discrimination,' said the goose.

Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen.
She baked five loaves and held them up for all of her
neighbors to see.
They wanted some and, in fact, demanded a share. But the little
red hen said, 'No, I shall eat all five loaves.'

'Excess profits!' cried the cow. (Nancy Pelosi)
'Capitalist leech!' screamed the duck. (Barbara Boxer)
'I demand equal rights!' yelled the goose. (Jesse Jackson)
The pig just grunted in disdain. (Ted Kennedy)

And they all painted 'Unfair!' picket signs and marched around
and around the little red hen, shouting obscenities.

Then the farmer (Obama) came. He said to the little red hen,
'You must not be so greedy.'

'But I earned the bread,' said the little red hen.

'Exactly,' said Barack the farmer. 'That is what makes our free
enterprise system so wonderful. Anyone in the barnyard can
earn as much as he wants. But under our modern government
regulations, the productive workers must divide the fruits of their
labor with those who are lazy and idle.'

And they all lived happily ever after, including the little red hen,
who smiled and clucked, 'I am grateful, for now I truly understand.'

But her neighbors became quite disappointed in her

She never again baked bread because she joined the 'party' and
got her bread free. And all the Democrats smiled. 'Fairness' had
been established.

Individual initiative had died, but nobody noticed; perhaps no one
cared...so long as there was free bread that 'the rich' were
paying for.
EPILOGUE:

Bill Clinton is getting $12 million for his memoirs.
Hillary got $8 million for hers.

He didn't "win" the 2000 election, he was in effect appointed president by the Supreme Court.

I can hardly wait for the next round of name calling.

Point is, I'll be pleasantly surprised if Obama wins, all I've heard from the Republican talking heads (Hannity, O'Really) is how it's going to be too close to tell. If you rig an election you don't make it obvious by making it a landslide, you make it 49 to 51.

1. Medication- FDA was originally founded under FDR, however he gave it no initial support and so the agency accomplished nothing until 100 people died 5 years later and a bipartisan Congress put some teeth in the law.
2. Labels- Current labeling laws were updated under Johnson and Nixon... a liberal and a conservative.
3. Unions- The labor unions gained power and worker rights were really brought to the fore under Theodore Roosevelt... A Republican.
4. The FDIC was founded by a Republican, Herbert Hoover, FDR gets credit but was actually opposed to it.
5. Most insurance companies are founded and run by some of the most conservative people you ever want to meet. I am glad they are, as a liberal would spend them out of business and I would have no unemployment or workman's comp. By the way Teddy Roosevelt, a Republican, was the first to call for National Health Care.
6. Most major non-public Universities and the entire education system of the Western World was founded by the Church, as were most hospitals. Prior to nationalizing the education system, church run schools had a far better academic record and higher literacy nationally than public schools do today (not exactly hard... guess some liberal wanted more power). Education was also free and available to everyone. I'm pretty sure the church would resist being called liberal or conservative.

I could go on, but I think everyone gets the idea. Like practically everyone else in the world you believe your "side" has done all of the good that the world has ever seen.

'Who will help me reap my wheat?' asked the little red hen.

'Not I,' said the duck.
'Out of my classification,' said the pig.
'I'd lose my seniority,' said the cow
'I'd lose my unemployment compensation,' said the goose.

'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen,
and so she did.
At last it came time to bake the bread.
'Who will help me bake the bread?' asked the little red hen
'That would be overtime for me,' said the cow.
'I'd lose my welfare benefits,' said the duck.
'I'm a dropout and never learned how,' said the pig.
'If I'm to be the only helper, that's discrimination,' said the goose.

Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen.
She baked five loaves and held them up for all of her
neighbors to see.
They wanted some and, in fact, demanded a share. But the little
red hen said, 'No, I shall eat all five loaves.'

'Excess profits!' cried the cow. (Nancy Pelosi)
'Capitalist leech!' screamed the duck. (Barbara Boxer)
'I demand equal rights!' yelled the goose. (Jesse Jackson)
The pig just grunted in disdain. (Ted Kennedy)

And they all painted 'Unfair!' picket signs and marched around
and around the little red hen, shouting obscenities.

Then the farmer (Obama) came. He said to the little red hen,
'You must not be so greedy.'

'But I earned the bread,' said the little red hen.

'Exactly,' said Barack the farmer. 'That is what makes our free
enterprise system so wonderful. Anyone in the barnyard can
earn as much as he wants. But under our modern government
regulations, the productive workers must divide the fruits of their
labor with those who are lazy and idle.'

And they all lived happily ever after, including the little red hen,
who smiled and clucked, 'I am grateful, for now I truly understand.'

But her neighbors became quite disappointed in her

She never again baked bread because she joined the 'party' and
got her bread free. And all the Democrats smiled. 'Fairness' had
been established.

Individual initiative had died, but nobody noticed; perhaps no one
cared...so long as there was free bread that 'the rich' were
paying for.
EPILOGUE:

Bill Clinton is getting $12 million for his memoirs.
Hillary got $8 million for hers.

That's $20 million for the memories from two people, who for
eight years, repeatedly testified, under oath, that they couldn't
remember anything.
AND I WONDER WHAT JOHN EDWARDS IS GOING TO GET FOR HIS MEMOIRS!!??


IS THIS A GREAT BARNYARD OR WHAT?I must not be a democrat.
(and I'm damn sure not a republican)

He didn't "win" the 2000 election, he was in effect appointed president by the Supreme Court.


Yes...he did. The supreme court had to step in because someone kept saying "count it again, no I don't like that outcome, count it again, no I don't Like the outcome, count it again, no don't count those and count it again."

Wether or not you or I like it GW has been the president for the last 7.5 years. He's been fiscally irresponsible, and hasn't spoken out loudly enough to counter the people who say "HE LIED to get us there". Bush has been a disappointing president, he had a majority and did nothing with it. He could have sealed the border but did not, He could have fixed some of our problems but instead chose to screw up our education system.

Barak scares the living shiat out of me because
1. I own guns
2. He's black and some ignorant redneck may try to kill him, which would spark race riots.( don't misread this as me not liking him because he is black, it is because of the liablility associated with his race, not his race)
3. He is a socailist.
4. when questioned further about anything controversial he has said his answer is "I never said that, what I said was...." when he did indeed say that.
5. He was the member of a radical church.(birds of a feather)
6. He wants to raise my taxes.(repealing the bush tax cuts would affect me, and I make under 50k a year)
7. He wants me to be dependant upon the government for all of my basic needs (healthcare)
8. He is a democrat, and democrats are often associated with environmentalism, who love to take away our access to public lands.

McCain scares me too, don't get me wrong. My choice would have been Romney or Thompson, but living in La. I never get to vote for anyone, Ohio gets to decide who is left on my ballot by the time the primaries get to me. And all that is left for me to do is vote against the bigger moron between the 2 candidates left.

I truly believe that anyone who is living off the system without contributing to the system should not get to determine the direction of that system. Wellfare check= no votey



I know, joining a political thread makes me a tard. What can I say, I'm like a fly on a delicious pile of shit, I can't stay away.
