The Republicans that I know & talk to have no problem with Bush.
Edited on Thu Sep-08-05 08:41 PM by JanMichael
None. None with the Iraq mess. None with the Katrina mess. None with Bolton. None with Rumsfeld. None with Condi. None with Arnie. None with shitty jobs. None with the uninsured (Healthcare), None with any of the shit we're disgusted with here.

PERIOD!

Stop your fucking defence of assHOLES!

They are ALL Christian Conservatives and they just don't CARE.

Edit: Got one that's a Christian Fundamentalist Environmentalist but she's just fucking confused beyond all human possibilities.

THE REST LOVE THIS SHIT AND ARE EITHER COVERT OR OVERT RACIST ASSHOLES!

That includes a relative that I love. That person is dear to me but hates Unions, Blacks, Public Schooling, other "darkies", and thinks Social security is fine for her/hisself but fuck the rest of us.

Go figure? They aren't LIKE us. They are supremely self-absorbed and self-centered. Their circle of life is small, their business their family or their employer, ours is HUMANITY.

So STOP defending the indefensible!

2. Of course - Bush validates living a completely self-absorbed,
materialistic, selfish, hypocritical life where there is never a need to be accountable. Nirvana for the narcissists!

5. Why do you even talk that woman?
Edited on Thu Sep-08-05 08:46 PM by Rainscents
So, is she on SSI? If so, tell her, it will go away and she will be out on the street with her kids!

Being nice is not good enough, I would not associate with people like her!

9. its possible that even the hypnotized can be awakened by a loud
enough noise.
I"m not defending them per se, but i"m just saying that people I work with are telling me stories of longstanding republican family members that are livid and angry at Bush and how he is trying to CYA on New Orleans.

It really IS happening.

Now, the real question is will it stick? I think if Rovespin gets to them, they'll get hypnotized again. All the more reason NOT to post hateful stuff against them while they're awakened.

hatefulness and spite will remind them of where they came from, and they'll get nostalgic and return to it.

However, if we give them the opposite, they might stay awake.


ponder it.

11. Wonder how much they'll like him when the economy goes belly up.
Because of this disaster. Maybe just a few of them will figure out that it might have had a little bit to do with him.

They may also figure out that their beloved Repub. Party is partly to blame because they turned down funding for fixing the levees. THAT would have been much less expensive than fixing up this humongous mess.

12. I would tell them that they have a choice
They can love Jesus

OR

They can love Bush

BUT

They can't do both

Jesus said, "As you do unto the least of these, so you do unto me."
(Bush has done the opposite: He has taken from the poor and given to the rich with his tax cuts and economic plans.)

Bush has also started a war unnecessarily which, of course, goes against the Prince of Peace's admonition to "turn the other cheek."

And if you look at the 10 commandments, Bush has broken 3: Thou shalt not kill (Iraq and the death penalty); Thou shalt not steal (taken money from the taxpayers and given it to Halliburton); and Thou shalt not bear false witness (WMD and twisted intelligence).

13. Ask them if they know who Grover Norquist is.
If they don't, tell them that not knowing who Grover Norquist is to a Republican, is like not knowing who Jesus Christ is to a Christian. Then tell them what Norquist believes in.

14. They are members of a CULT
You have to deprogram them, and keep them away from FoxNews. Takes a few months. Michael Moore films help.

16. My boss is just as described but I don't see any signs of
racism in him. He does, however, hate gays.
