This Republican Party really doesn't give a shit about you...

[kentuck]

...They are the most divisive, most antagonistic, most hateful, most racist, most misogynistic, most unsympathetic, most non-compassionate, most idiotic, most ill-informed bunch of ass wipes I can ever recall in my lifetime.

They are deceitful, lying, stacks of shit. There simply is no way a sane person could believe the crap they spew out.

They don't give a damn about this country. They don't care about our people. They only care about maintaining power and getting more tax breaks for themselves and their friends. They are totally dependent on a large percentage of this country being stupid enough to believe their bullshit. They spread around words like "freedom" and "opportunity" like it was manure on a weed garden. They have no idea what freedom or opportunity means. If there was any justice in this world, most of them would be in jail.

[George Cauldron]

1. But they hate the same things I hate...

namely, everything. Doesn't that count for something?

[lunatica]

2. They also hedge their bets by making it harder to vote and by stealing votes

with their diebold (sp?) voting machines.

They lie and they cheat and they steal.

They also want to rule, not govern.

[rustydog]

4. I believe they want to serve...the 1%

THEIR economy is great! They have businesses that are focused on a global market with workers based in china, south america and other low-paying nations. Who gives a shit if you can't find work to feed your family? Move to China and get a job.

Romney made his hundreds of millions buying companies, shipping the jobs off shore, bankrupting the company and selling what remained....
You and I do not count, we are not even an equation in their economy or their America...
They just need our votes..for now. Citizens united is changing that right before our eyes.

[coalition_unwilling]

3. A most righteous rant. Not quite a DUzY, mind you, but an

existential scream of truth.

K&R!

[spanone]

5. they are the religion party. they believe god is on their side.

couldn't be farther from the truth.

[polichick]

9. I always say that the world would be better off if...

...they'd get raptured asap - they prevent so much progress from taking place and threaten the entire planet.

[madamesilverspurs]

12. Methinks they DON'T believe that God is on their side.

Rather, they DO believe that God is an effective and convenient marketing tool.

[newspeak]

19. well, actually I think some of them just use religion

for their own purpose. "religion is what keeps the poor from killing the rich." And which god is on their side? Could it be mammon?

[Initech]

6. Frank Zappa had it right.

He loathed the modern Republican party and what it stood for. He said one time that the GOP only stands for greed and corruption and he was right. They really don't give a shit about anyone that's not a rich white millionaire or billionaire - and they only work to support the needs of the upper 1%. Voting the last fucking one of em out of office will be a great thing for our country.

[LibDemAlways]

7. When you consider that millions will vote in Nov. for Romney and

equally despicable R candidates for both houses of Congress - completely against their own best interest - it's pretty obvious that Americans are unbelievably clueless and gullible. Sad sad state of affairs.

[polichick]

8. Unfortunately, they can count on "a large percentage of this country...

...being stupid enough to believe their bullshit" - dim-witted people distracted by a lot of idiotic amusements and not the least bit interested in being good citizens who do the homework required by democracy.

[DAngelo136]

10. Here it is in a nutshell...

The modern Republican party, is run by rich, old, White men who believe deep down, with all the fiber of their being, that they AND ONLY THEY have the legitimate right to rule, not govern: RULE. The whole of Conservative thought comes down to establishing an aristocracy with them at the top and everyone else below. The only reason they talk about "conserving institutions" is because it preserves those things that maintain their power over everyone else. Anything that involves freedom for the masses or economic justice, is against everything they stand for. They don't believe in a meritocracy; it would mean that blue blooded morons such as the previous President would never have gotten anywhere if he had to depend on his own wits and had no connections.
Their greatest allies are the "wannabes", those people who listen to Rush Limbaugh and as Mike Malloy calls right wing radio "Radio Rwanda" who vote for these "aristocrats" in the vain hope that one day, they will be one of them. Not realizing that they will never achieve that status because the people who they vote for will never allow it they vote against their own interests and then blame minority groups for their lack of progress.
Lets talk about the elephant in the room (no pun intended); SUPPLY SIDE ECONOMIC POLICIES DON'T WORK!
That's the truth that they can't face; Karl Rove can't spin it, FoxNews can't deny it and the Teabagger freaks don't get it.
While I've been disappointed with President Obama, I'm going to vote FOR him out of spite for the Republican Party. I want the margin to be so big, they'll be in the political wilderness for 2 generations. I want them to be traumatized by the fact that a Black Man beat them not once, but twice. It may sound cruel, but I'm looking forward to every Conservative freak and their Teabagger acolytes to be on the verge of suicide, so much that like Madam Lafarge, I'm bringing the popcorn to watch them go their demise with glee.
If that seem extreme to you, then go to Free Republic.com and see if you still believe these guys aren't beyond redemption.

[Rittermeister]

11. You don't see the irony

in wanting half of this nation's population to be on the verge of suicide, then talking about how insane they are?

[Zalatix]

14. They are insane, which is what will put them on the verge of suicide.

[DAngelo136]

25. in re:You don't see the irony

"You don't see the irony in wanting half of this nation's population to be on the verge of suicide, then talking about how insane they are?"


I don't care about "irony", I want to see their demise and to be entertained. Kill two birds with one stone;what's better than that?

[newspeak]

20. well, then maybe their next leader

will be divined by god and we will have another monarchy. I've got a feeling since the business plot against FDR and the numerous assassinations (JFK, MLK), that the elite already think they're the rulers and are calling all of the shots.

[madamesilverspurs]

13. Yup.

Your rant is spot on. Although she would express it a bit differently, my mother would agree with you. Your correct assessment is the reason that Mom, after 72 years of active membership in the GOP, formally separated from the party three weeks ago. She voted for Obama, the first time in her life that she voted for a Democrat; and she maintains that he will prove to be the best president of her lifetime. She had retained her registration in order to have access to conversations that would have been closed to her otherwise. Now she wants no stain of affiliation, she is horrified by their words and actions. She had been a loyal and diligent worker for the party, and it hurts her deeply that she has been, in her words, "forced out."

"I don't know these people, " she says, "and I don't want to."

I figure that was kinder than saying DUH!!!!!!!

"In other news the sun rose today.I figure that was kinder than saying DUH!!!!!!!"

That's your problem; you're kind. Which is precisely why I said what I said. We Democrats lack the "killer instinct". We don't realize that this is an alley fight, with brass knuckles, bottles and pipes. And the Republic party is playing for keeps. I'm not in the kindness business; I'm in the winning business. I'm not about snark, I'm going to insult you, belittle you and question your manhood or your womanhood in order to win. That is the coin of the realm; get used to it.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

28. So you had to dig up a post that's a month old?

I hope you don't think you're being effective by doing such.

[DAngelo136]

29. In RE:So you had to dig up a post that's a month old?

"I hope you don't think you're being effective by doing such."

I seem to have gotten YOUR attention, didn't I?

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

30. Okay I understand now.

You don't get enough attention so you're trolling month old posts.

[DAngelo136]

31. In re: Okay I understand now.

"You don't get enough attention so you're trolling month old posts."

Apparently, you don't. I don't "troll". I offered an opinion. An opinion which YOU disagree with.
Instead of addressing the issues that I've raised, you object to the fact that I addressed a month old post.
Now, rather than just leaving that alone and walking away; you felt compelled to bring that to my attention. Why?

The fact that the post is basically 30 days old does not detract from the fact that the subject is relevant. If it weren't, why did YOU feel compelled to answer? Are you that anal retentive that you feel it necessary to tell me that it is a month old post? YOU took the time and trouble to respond to my post and then say that I'm a troll that doesn't get enough attention. Talk about projecting.

Now "Yo Mama" (that alone tells me a lot about you),I'll get down to brass tacks here; you can either address the subject or just STFU. How about that? I will be happy to engage you civilly or I will consider you a troll and ignore your silly little missives. What say you?

[just1voice]

16. "no way a sane person could believe the crap they spew out." is exactly right

Repukes are mentally ill, they mask a multitude of mental conditions simply by putting an (R) next to their name. When I see an (R) I instantly know the person has mental problems.

If this country had a rational health care system it'd be a lot more obvious.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

17. And, the feeling is quite mutual.

[librechik]

21. yes, but they are lying about us--

another thing they do worth hating them for.

[BanTheGOP]

18. There is a solution: Criminalize the party using existing RICO statutes

I keep sounding like a broken record, but we are bitching and moaning ad nauseum. We NEED to take more proactive measures, first by suing in federal court using existing RICO statutes and the plethora of evidence we have that proves that GOP policies are destructive to citizens, to people around the world, to the environment, and finally, to the legacy we leave our children.

Let me be clear: I am a socialist, as most of us here, but am a democrat SOLELY because the republican Party needs to be stopped. And to that end, I've identified the republican Party as the ROOT CAUSE of ALL the crap that is disseminated around the globe. American "exceptionalism" is a bagger reference, and mandates we exclude all non-citizens. Other facets fall by the wayside.

Without a republican party, the Democratic Party would be joined by many other progressive minded parties ensuring a rich and civil debate on issues, and not concentrate on trying to stop illegal and destructive policies that is part and parcel of the current GOP.

Destroy the GOP...NOW!!@

[newspeak]

22. but, then we would be no better than, let's say hitler going against the socialists

The repug party needs a dose of sanity-where's the party of abe lincoln or even eisenhower? Hell, even nixon is sounding more rational and he was paranoid.

In order to gain sanity in this country, it all comes down to actual civil discourse and debate between factions. But, that's not going to happen with our current corporate media. The media is directly responsible for hiring factless, ignorant spewing blathering heads; and for causing such a division amongst the plebes. And, I'm saying it's intentional. It's "divide and conquer." And it's all for the further privatizing of government departments, spreading distrust of the government (which is supposed to be doing policies to protect "we the people&quot and allowing big business to garner more power over us. They've been doing it since reagan. If you repeat a lie often enough, the zombies will see it as truth; but the truth is there is very little "liberal" media. Unless, catapulting corporate agenda is now liberal media.

[Dragonbreathp9d]

23. Ignoring the troll- only has one thing to say

And intent is to make us look bad

[BanTheGOP]

24. And your solution is to...WHAT??

I thought so.

"Looking bad" is NOT about what I do here. I am trying to save not only this country, but humanity, the planet, and in extension, our very existence. The republican Party has done EVERYTHING they can to destroy it, and I'll be damned if I let it go without a real fight.

So go ahead and call me a "troll." What ideas do YOU have to get rid of the republican menace??

[DAngelo136]

You're my kind of troll. Welcome aboard.

[getarplayer]

32. F you Republicons

The Republican Party has become the party of racists, white supremacists and nut cases. They don’t stand for anything and don’t give a shit about Americans. They would rather kiss Trump’s ass than help the American people. Everyone of them should be thrown out of Congress! The Republicans in the Kansas legislature don’t give a shit about the health and safety of Kansans.

[Eliot Rosewater]

33. I agree fully. Welcome to DU!

[KS Toronado]

34. Welcome to DU!

You a fellow Kansan?
