Since when is talking about people's lives means it's politics??? |
|
When I expressed to my RW mother how bad it is there and blame the government's pathetic response, she says 'we shouldn't talk politics'.
We've got innocents and our troops dying in Iraq, and now people are dying in the gulf coast.
To me this isn't politics. These are human beings who are dying. What's so fucking political about that?

1. When you criticize a Republican it's politics |
|
When you spend 85 million investigating a blow job and only 3 million investigating 9/11 it's frugal economic policy. :sarcasm:

4. When the GOP controls all branches of the Federal government ... |
|
... they obviously, both rank and file, regard it as an extension of the Republican Party, not the people's government. It's demonstrated in soooo many ways, even in their own feast or famine of criticisms!

3. Same thing happened on a list I participate in. Very intelligent, |
|
supposedly, people there feeling any comment on what has not been done is Bush- or conservative- bashing. Lots of "we have to pull together" rants. Yes we will pull together, within reality--not in some fantasy world pulled out of someone's imagination.

8. It drives me batshit crazy |
|
It's not just my mother who does this, but every damn rw nutjob.
They politicized every damn thing from Clinton on...used 9/11 and whatever else they could get their grubby hands on. So if dems bitch about the outrageous incompetence, they'll be accused of politicizing. :banghead:

5. So she is proving the GOP republicans are fascist freaks? |
|
Damn right it isn't about politics.....Should spread that meme everywhere. When thousands die the GOP makes it about politics, and their usual bullshit agenda.
"Oh that- that's politics"
When traitors are in the midst "That's politics"
When everyone and every mother is denied the right to vote "That's politics"
Spread that meme everywhere along with Big Oil......So hey you ungrateful assholes, its all about politics and bill clinton is it? Get a freaking brain before you self destruct by a disaster.

How did the Repugs use 9/11? Politics, politics, politics 24/7. They beat the Dems over the head with it like it was their fault.

7. Emotion is only aloud during GOP electoral races & TV ads. Didn't |
|
you get the memo? We humans use "lawless" emotion. Nobody is getting money or power off that - nobody on their side. So we have to shut up and stop feeling or thinking.
