Things you have to Believe to be a Republican today....
Jesus loves you, and shares your Hatred of homosexuals and Hillary
Clinton.


Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's
daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him, and a
bad guy when Bush needed a "we can't find Bin Laden "diversion.


Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is Communist, but trade
with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony.


The United States should get out of the United Nations, and our
highest national priority is enforcing UN resolutions against Iraq.


A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but
multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind without
regulation.


The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in
speeches, while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay.


If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex.


A good way to fight terrorism is to belittle our long-time allies,
then demand their cooperation and money!


Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy, but providing
health care to all Americans is socialism. HMO's & Insurance Companies have the best interests of the public at heart.


Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science, but
Creationism should be taught in schools.


A president lying about an extramarital affair is an impeachable
offense, but a president lying to enlist support for a war in which
thousands die is solid defense policy.


Government should limit itself to the powers named in the
Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the
Internet.


The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but
George Bush's driving/ drinking /business records is none of our business.

Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a
Conservative radio host like Rush Limbaugh. Then it's an illness and you need our prayers for your recovery.


What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest, but
what Bush did in the '80s is irrelevant.



Friends don't let friends vote Republican. Find a candidate with common sense (possibly a Democrat ) and help to recover our Sinking Ship.

3. Here's another: You can be 'pro-life' while supporting death in war,
the death penalty, and while giving not one whit of concern for life outside the womb, until that life is near an end and should be allowed to quietly pass on with dignity.
