Allentown primitive remembers Republicans

I selected this for sentimental reasons; I once lived in Allentown, Pennsylvania, in one of those rowhouses just west of downtown; the landlord was a Greek who didn't know English.  His wife used to send over all of these Greek pastries.

Something to Remember about Republicans

The republican party represents people that still believe that the earth is 6000 years old and that Sarah Palin would be a great President. It represents people who are too simple minded to be able to reconcile their faith with an idea that their can be a metaphor in the Bible. There is also alot of racism there. Ignorance and blind faith is a dangerous combination

It also represents and is funded by big business. The people who through W ripped this nation off to begin with.

So with that combination its rather easy to understand why the idea that cutting taxes for the rich an idea that has been proven to be a failure is still one of their major talking points. Its an idealogy created by their corporate masters that has been sold to a simple sheep like people against their own interest.

Oh my.  So that's what we are.  I didn't know.

1. I'd say cutting taxes for the rich is their ONLY real issue.

If you include taxes as a subset of "exploiting government to get selected private sector individuals filthy rich," then everything else they support is only in there to pave the way to that objective. Everything else they support is specifically designed:

* To stoke the fires of hatred and/or patriotism among their ignorant followers;

* To confuse their ignorant followers so that they cannot make an informed decision and therefore default to the authority figures they trust (Republicans);

* To confound those who oppose them by forcing them to express outrage and to repair damage to institutions rather than moving forward;

* To make it easier for Republicans to skirt the law, avoid recriminations, and dole out favors to their benefactors.

Everything the Bush Administration did for eight years falls under one of those four categories or the fifth: getting their benefactors filthy rich-er-est. That's all they really have, and for the longest time, that's all they really needed.

Has that dipshit ever even met a conservative? Or does he base his opinion on smears and observations made at the DUmp?

The republican rants are pretty much great Rorschach tests for DUchebags.

One who is pointing out the ignorance of others ought to be more careful of one's own grammar so that one doesn't sound like a stupid, drooling moonbat. Isn't there some silly Bible platitude about pulling the stick out of your own eye before pointing out the splinter in someone else?
