Why do Republicans hate sex and marijuana? [View all]

Last edited Wed Apr 19, 2017, 08:57 AM - Edit history (1)

There's an old saying that a Puritan is someone who sits up all night worrying that someone, somewhere is having a good time. That might fit Republicans if they weren't such hypocrites.

Let's face it. The Republican Party is a criminal enterprise that is interested in only control, power and attaining wealth. And as for sex and marijuana, it's okay as long as they are the ones smoking weed or screwing a yak.

But since they think they need to look "holier than thou" to the imbecile part of their base, they rail against the evils of screwing and puffing.

They're about to kick off a new "war on drugs" and marijuana is high on their list. I wonder how long it will be before they bring back chastity belts and start branding women with a scarlet A.

Republicans politicians are among the worst dicks in the world. And anyone who disagrees, just look at the tons of crap they're putting up with from their so-called president
