You've Got Us Beat, GOP [View all]

[NanceGreggs]

It would be foolish not to admit that there are certain things that you Republicans do better than Democrats – and when it comes to those certain things, you whup our asses every time. And the events of the past week drove that point home yet again.

We could never beat you Republicans when it comes to responding to an event like Parkland by accusing grief-stricken students of being “crisis actors”, or pawns being manipulated by Democrats in order to further a political agenda.

Honestly, if we culled all of our resources, tapped every think tank, gathered our most respected leaders and asked for their input, we still couldn’t have come up with anything that vile, that low, that lacking in human decency. If we spent twenty-four hours of every day mulling it over for a decade, I doubt we could have created a narrative so astoundingly offensive.

There is no circumstance in which anyone from our side of the aisle would mock the emotional pain of parents who just lost a child, or children who witnessed their schoolmates being gunned-down.

I cannot even imagine a situation which would prompt Democrats to actually send death threats to the survivors of a massacre such as took place in Parkland, in order to silence them – in order to literally threaten their lives in much the same way a crazed gunman had just threatened to take their lives in the halls of their own school, and did take the lives of their teachers and their best friends.

So yes, Republicans, you have beat us yet again. You have stooped lower than we would even consider, no less be willing to go. You have demonstrated a lack of compassion that decent people can’t even fathom. Once more, you have shown yourselves to be heartless deplorables – as if further proof were necessary of just how deplorable you really are.

Oh, and just in case you’re wondering about the other things you do better than Democrats, you also beat the shit out of us when it comes to being racists, bigots, hypocrites, and stupid beyond all imagining.
