Republican motto. "Gays, guns, and God"

Let's analysis compared to the current status:

1) Gays: Well, pretty much a mainstream thing. Wisconsin, Idaho and Pennsylvania governors decided to not to appeal their recent overturn of the ban and begin issuing gay marriage: Impact on today on Republicans on issuing marriage certificate: All their imaginations about marrying their dogs, the world being upside down is just that: an imagination.

2) Guns: Anyone who has a gun and cannot identify the difference between "good guy" and "bad guy" and not know when to knock it off, with daily shootings happening every day, gun control makes logical sense every time. Also, the Second Amendment is badly perverted and needs to be corrected under the Founding Father's original intent: There is no need for Second Amendment anymore because we have a standing army/navy/airforce and they should follow the intent and dearm the morons who wants to stroke their guns after being in the military.

3) God: Fundies have gone insane for years, we knew that.

Why the Republican motto now? It just gone mainstream and have two hits against them.

DENVER - A request by conservative political group Citizens United to be treated as a media organization under Colorado election law was denied on Thursday.

The Colorado Secretary of State's office ruled that an upcoming documentary featuring state politicians "is an electioneering communication" and that it does not fall under any of the exemptions to state laws requiring political groups to disclose financial donors when running ads that mention candidates within 60 days of an election.

The decision could set the stage for courtroom battle, something that wouldn't be new for Citizens United.

The group is the namesake of the landmark 2010 US Supreme Court decision that opened the door to unlimited corporate campaign spending.

Good. They are propaganda machines and should be treated as such.

And all media outlets should ignore Citizen United and its upcoming propaganda & campaign ads disguised as a documentary film this fall.

Democrats who opposes the federal minimum wages needs to be primaried.

Let's start with Mark Pryor. He needs a primary challenger to remind him how dangerous his opposition to the minimum wage is.
