Bush Apologists: ....What's in it for you?? |
|
Next time it might be your city or town. Maybe a dirty bomb, or a biological attack.
Maybe it will be your mayor, overwhelmed and begging for help. Maybe it will be your mom or child who will die because no help was on the way.
Are you blind?....insane?.....WTF??!!
Demand resignations! Now!

They think weathy/white people will be taken care of in a similar disaster. Even Saddam and Hitler had their supporters.

6. They're afraid to admit that they were wrong |
|
They'll almost always be adamant about their choices. They'll never admit that they voted for the wrong guy, or that they were suckered into believing a bunch of bullshit.

9. I agree. The ones that I know will never admit they were suckered. |
|
Especially since I kept telling them they were being suckered before the election.

7. They know not what they do. They are blind with trust in loyalty. |
|
:shrug: I must assume. I feel terrible in saying the blind faith and loyalty is at a cultist and ultimate destructive level,...is actually the unforgiveable Christian sin (willful denial of reality/facts).
Why would anyone support a political leadership that has INTENTIONALLY deceived our people, profitted off our blood and treasure, cast us into historical debt, broken our resources that strengthens and protects our nation, sacrificed our security, inflamed hatred against us from the rest of the world, advanced historical profits to corporacrats while outsourcing our livelihood to those who are economic slaves, saved corporate abusers while simultaneously KILLED individuals and small businesses,...I could go on and on.
This isn't about political affiliation. This is about saving Americans and America. Yes, I do tend towards the democrats because the Black Caucus is all Democrats and their are numerous democrats who have been SCREAMING on our behalf. Meanwhile, the fucking republicans have been selling EVERY BASIC TENET OF AMERICANISM out,...for power!!! FUCK THEM!!!! F-U-C-K T-H-E-M!!!

Who benefits from supporting these failures. Is anyone getting rich among these bush supporters? Is the repub stance on gay marriage or the abortion issue worth sticking up for watching 40,000 people drown? If their town winds up in a similar plight, will their suffering make them change their minds. This is not a stinking sporting event where you root your team on. This is your personal well being and safety net that you are rooting against. I will never understand.

11. They live in a world where their baser instincts are appealed to. |
|
And they are aloud to act on them. It was very hard under other leadership - people demanded that adults act like adults and be responsible for their effect on others.
Some just drink too much kool-aid. There is a huge network of reinforcement. But at some point, if they are normal human beings, the anxiety of living in a punitive and selfish world has got to eat away because it is not a rewarding world. But then they throw the church at people and get people to be rewarded that way (some hate, some good works). Takes longer for some than others to see the light. And the small percent of the population who are just plain evil will not change.

15. The Republicans have really done a good job... |
|
of confusing the hell out of people.
I know people that have NO business being or voting Republican. They're not religious, so you can't play that card.
They just honestly believe that they are represented by that party. These people make $50-70k a year. And they think wow, I'm doing pretty well. I've got two cars. A house, some toys.
The Republicans tell people that they're going to be taxed.
The incompetant Democrats don't ever explain WHO is going to be taxed. Rather than using the Republican terms every time, just say it! How many times did Kerry say the "richest" Americans? I don't think people realize what it takes to be one of the "richest" Americans. $400,000 a year SALARIES.
Yet, because Democrats are vague, or idiots, they let the Republicans gain voters through ignorance.
Many people voting Republican believe, deeply, that it is in their financial best interest to vote this way.
