If the GOP goes down hard, have you prepared "I told you so" |
|
speeches for right-wing friends and family members? :) If so, share! I might want to borrow some ideas. :)

1. I plan to waste no time reliving the nightmare of the last five years |
|
I won't just move on, I won't even look back. They have to live with themselves. We've got a mess to clean up--as we always do when their empty demagogery inevitably collapses.

8. That's a good idea. :) |
|
The OP was sort of tongue-in-cheek. I'd love to just move on.

2. I've been in "I told you so" mode for quite a while, Ladyhawk... |

Edited on Wed Jul-13-05 01:05 AM by Hissyspit
but I don't really talk to any right-wingers anymore, so no speech suggestions for you. All my friends and family know. I've been emailing this stuff to them for two years now.

No party as control-freakish, as ignorant, and as evil as the repukes of today can last for long.
And I have no "I told you so" speeches. I have no right wing friends I talk to.
Besides that, I'll save the "I told you sos" if they'll just get the FUCK out of the government (ruining everything) and get the FUCK out of everyone's private lives (period).

My grandmother had a revelation a couple of months ago. You see, her Medicare costs are rising, but her Social Security isn't. This was during the big tour to convince us to privatize that very system. She was very upset that he didn't care about the people anymore. I lost it. Anymore? Do you really think he cared before?? She also said that he didn't know what he was doing in Iraq. No kidding.

We'll have plenty of time for speeches after we bring the culture of corruption to its knees!

9. my rw mother just sticks her head farther in her bible |
|
Her and my grandmother are on fixed incomes and while their money stays the same everything else keeps going up. The money is getting tighter with each passing month it seems like, but there is no reasoning with my mother. My grandmother doesn't bother much with politics...she's almost 87.
My mother, though, still thinks bush is wonderful and even with the wall-to-wall scandals, the war going badly, the crappy economy and the horrid gas prices, she just won't believe otherwise. I even told her how the gas prices alone are affecting hubby's job (truck driver). She refuses to believe that bush is responsible for the gas prices no matter how I explain it.
She's one of those few RWer's that so evangelical it's blinding her. I truly believe the only way she will see that bush is an insance criminal is black and white evidence that cannot be refuted in any way. :shrug:
There will be no 'I told you so'. I won't have to say a word. She'll know even though she will never admit it.

15. I don't have any left |
|
There are some conservative members of the family on my husband's side, but none who voted for Bush a second time. They're conservative - not stupid.

16. Guess I'll dust off my old "I told you so's" from the Watergate days. |
|
I was saving them for just such an occasion. It was fun to say it then; it will be even more fun now.
