Seriously now. Why do Republicans STILL have a chance in 2008? [View All]

[HughBeaumont]

Just in case anyone needs to be reminded of the oh-so-awesome job Republicretins have done in 20 years of their time in office since 1980:

* Worst terrorist attack on American soil, arguably with the Bewsh Administration's foreknowledge.
* Two failed wars that have cost 4000 American lives and over 800,000 Iraqi lives (which McClown voted for).
* Business allies with totalitarian nations and sheikdoms with human rights abuse records a mile long.
* S&L scandal (which McClown was part of), among many . . MANY others.
* 70% of the current National Debt tallied under a Bewsh or a Reagan.
* Trade Deficit at record levels.
* A joke of a Gulf War I, which we started and gave the green light to, contrary to popular belief.
* Iran/Contra.
* Funding Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden's terrorist organizations.
* The permanent installation of Supply Side Economics, a substantial disaster for anyone making less than $300,000 a year.
* The most dismal job creation records since the Great Depression.
* Intentional kneecapping of almost all social programs while increasing the Pentasewer's chunk to 51% of the Discretionary budget.
* Multiple Recessions (two in this administration alone, although no one in the media or government wants to admit it).
* Gladhanding of the wealthy and the corporations they run at the expense of everything else.
* Socialism of loss, privatization of profits.
* The shift of risk, via economic policy, from corporations to the workers.
* Out-of-control corporate welfare.
* Weakest dollar value since the 70s.
* Lowest approval numbers for any sitting president.
* Two election scandals, mostly swept under the rug and brushed off as "sour grapes by loony left conspiracy theorists". :eyes:
* Bailouts of banks while giving the middle finger to Universal Health Care.

It's been proven time and time again that under Republican administrations as compared to Democratic ones:

* stock market returns are worse.
* personal spending goes down while wages in real dollars remain stagnant.
* the national debt rises substantially.
* more country-damaging scandal and illegal activity occurs.
* damaging and tax-wasting invasions so the Pentasewer and their cronies can get rich off of Joe Sixpack at the price of his soldier son.
* more religious right empowerment happens.
* more fear-induced governing occurs (terr' alerts, anyone?).
* income disparity grows.

So again, WHY is this election still in danger of being close?

How exactly is America still accepting of Bewsh policy continued via Cotton Hill McClown?

Is the American voting public in 2008 still acting as the abused in ardent defense of their abusers, or do they really just not GIVE a shit about their futures or their kids?

REPUBLICANS.
Here's Hoping People NEVER Come to their Senses.
Otherwise, We'd Be In Deep Shit.
