GOP Slams Democratic Forum for Lack of Hatred of America

WASHINGTON (The Nil Admirari) - Today, many of the Republican presidential candidates criticized their Democratic counterparts following the Democratic Forum held at Winthrop University in Rock Hill, South Carolina last night. The main criticism - by far - was the lack of infantile hatred of both their fellow Americans and the constitutional government of the United States whenever the Democrats did not get what they wanted.

"Where was the fearmongering, the pontificating, and the divisive hatred of the LGBT community, poor, disabled, elderly, war veterans, ethnic minorities, liberals, non-Chrisitians, and women and their reproductive rights?" asked Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), who asserted the Democrats were "really bad at this politics thing."

Governor of New Jersey Chris Christie asked, "Where was the infectious pessimism that the United States cannot afford to be a great nation with a modern infrastructure and healthy citizens, but it can sure as hell continue to fund a national military known for shamelessly wasting money with little accountability?"

The GOP often asserts America cannot afford domestic spending programs.

1. A Thousand Recs.! That discretionary spending chart is forbidden and banned in corporate media.

That pie chart with the Military devouring most of the pie is NOT satire!

As Obama always says - without Doom and Gloom propaganda what would the opposition to liberal progress be?

Because "progressive", seems to me, also means "to progress", as in strength and scope of a pre-existing thing e.g. - Alcoholism is a progressive disease.

To be progressive or a progressive is not just a label without meaning and definition.

And to be a progressive or a progressive in a political context is NOT revolution...that is another word.

2. Total spending

But remember, discretionary spending is only 1.1 Trillion, vs a the entire US Gov't. budget of $3.8 Trillion. The lion's share of MANDATORY spending goes to SS, Medicare, Transportation, etc. Very misleading.

3. Discretionary spending was probably used, because it has to be approved every year.

And shows what the priorities of the time are, as well as what the Congress at the time would like to make the overall budget look like.

4. not sure that comment is satire, given the hatred spewing from the reichwingers.
