Words/Phrases in the Republican Lexicon that REALLY chap your ass.

[Maddy McCall]

My favorite:

"misspoke"

Frist misspoke when he said he owned no stock in HCA, even though records show he had just made $50,000 by owning HCA stock.

(as compared to)

Martha Stewart lied about selling her shares of Imclone stock via insider information.


So which Republican words and phrases really irritate you?

[Loonman]

1. Every stupid statement every Republican makes:

Is "taken out of context", whether it has been or not, Bill o'Reily is notorious for this, even though there are tons of footage of him being stupid at the Media Matters website.

"Ownership society"
"axis of evil"
"Freedom is on the march"

[SeattleRob]

8. How about this one...

"The Criminalization of Politics"

[Maddy McCall]

14. Heard that a LOT lately.

Yeah, Republicans have criminalized politics. I can't recall any era in history in which the Senate Majority Leader, the House Majority Leader, and the administration were ALL under investigation for completely seperate cases of corruption and conspiracy.

They've done a good job and being criminal politicians.

[SeattleRob]

35. Another fav....

When a Repuke sticks his or her foot in their mouth and says something really stupid, they bring out the classic:

"I was quoted out of context."

[jasmeel]

2. 9/11---That phrase has become more unbearable because I

know what will follow it and it makes me :puke:

[BOSSHOG]

3. bush misspoke

when he said brownie was "doin a heckuva job."

As a veteran, one of the favorite one's I like to toss back in their dipshit faces (in various forms of below):

"I would join the military but the troops need my support here."

[Maddy McCall]

9. Yes--the latter...

"My son won't go to Iraq because his education is more important."

Translates to:

Just send the poor black kids over there. They're expendable.


(HEY BOSS! When's Acme opening back up? I'm dyin' for an oyster plate!)

[BOSSHOG]

29. Hi Maddy

Check out:

http://www.nomenu.com/RestaurantsOpen.html

for New Orleans open restaurants. Acme isn't listed yet but Tom Fitzmorris is keeping track. Many restaurants are up and running with limited menus. I haven't been to the quarter yet, but I'm pretty patient. It won't be long.

[bowens43]

4. 'Blame game'

[sweetheart]

5. "pro life"

It is the very antithesis of what they actually stand for.

[bryant69]

6. "We are a Christian Nation"

I have know idea what this is supposed to mean.

I should say i am a Christian, but calling us a Christian nation is usually a subtle way of saying non-Christians can go to hell.

7. "the rule of law" n/t

[Ripley]

10. "Culture of Life"

From the fucktard War Mongering, Peaceful Demonstrator Tasering, Death Penalty for Young and Mentally Deficient, Assault Weapon Totin' ASSHOLES.

[Maddy McCall]

13. Oh GAG fuckin GAG.

That one really gets to me, too.

[Arugula Latte]

11. That we wage "class warfare"

when we suggest, oh, maybe bazillionaires don't need another massive tax cut.

Yep, that's it. WE'RE the ones waging class warfare.

How dare we not support the Extremely Wealthy's right to rape and pillage the country even more while working people can't pay rent or medical bills?

[TheCowsCameHome]

12. Here's one the RW uses a lot -

"My remarks were taken out of context" vs. That's what I actually said and meant but am now trying to weasel out of because they've nailed me.

I hate having a chapped ass...........

[Rob H.]

15. When it's called the "Democrat party"

It seems like a minor thing, but the fact that Hannity, Limbaugh, Coulter, etc., use it all the damned time, well, that really tells me all I need to know.

[Seabiscuit]

16. "Dey hates us for our freedoms"

[TahitiNut]

17. "democratization"

What this really means is corporate power-broker infiltration - government for sale.

[Marr]

18. I wish Dems would just plainly point these things out.

On television, when a Republican says someone "misspoke" about something, I wish the Dems would simply devote their entire response to pointing out that "misspoke" is con-man talk for "lied", and that the fellow who just said it is a paid con-man.

Period. Just like that. You'd win a hell of alot more people over that way than by accepting the weak excuse and offering another reasoned response.

[RubyDuby in GA]

19. "family values"

I have taken to literally spitting when I hear this damn phrase. They act like they're the only ones to have any. Sonsabitches!

[Norquist Nemesis]

20. Democrat Party

Considering no such thing exists, they've been fighting an opposition only in their delusions.

[malta blue]

21. the ones that really get me are

"family values"

and

"they hate us for our freedom" (and variants thereof)

[Horse with no Name]

22. "up or down vote"

:puke:

[The Great Escape]

23. "Legislate From The Bench" or "Activist Judges".....

in other words, judges like Roy Moore.:eyes:

[Road Scholar]

24. This is a good one, tell me if you agree. Legislating from the

bench. Translation: Practicing law from congress (this is pure Rovian)
another:"Pro-Life means: Anti choice, Pro choice means: killing Innocent babies

It ain't all hard that to fool a dimwit freeper. Just wave the flag, thump the bible,burn a cross,mistreat a gay or lesbian. Shoot the messenger,then if all else fails, call out the boogie man

[meganmonkey]

25. "Finish the job"

as in "We have to honor our fallen soldiers by finishing the job in Iraq"

Meaning: 2,000 have died? Well, maybe their families will feel better if a few thousand more die too!

[bpilgrim]

26. LIBERAL MEDIA

we're here...
http://GlobalFreePress.com

peace

[Touchdown]

27. Soros (or anybody) is an extreeeeemist liberal leftist

Here's a clue. Extremist leftists are dead. There are no commies anymore. We are the mainstream of America, like the 60% who want us out of Iraq.

...or the meme that George Soros funds anything and everything, especially Media Matters. Oh'Really says that a lot.

[Yoda Yada]

28. Mostly the general key phrases....

"I look forward to...." (as, amid the trembles, Bush cowers behind the curtain of incompetence.)

"I am confident that...." (...that the thug squad will take over, and I will no longer have to deal with this again)

"I urge..." (...whether he is talking to Congress, the UN or the American people....it just a euphemism for...I will bully you until you see it my way)

"I appreciate that..." ( means that's the last time you will ever hear it.)

"The American people want..." (I know no one will verify this...so, the American people want whatever I tell them they want...he..he...he...he...)

Any others?

[Maddy McCall]

30. Won't answer that. It's an ongoing investigation. Direct questions to...

the special investigator.

--Little Scottie

[madinmaryland]

31. "The liberal media."

I didn't know such a thing actually existed today. Everything in the media has been foxified.

[Tim4319]

32. Liberal

I really hate they way they try and make the work Liberal a bad word!

[Binka]

33. Here's An Ari Blast From The Past.....UNHELPFUL!

Fuckwittage!

[cybildisobedience]

34. the grown-ups are in charge

or "Bush will restore honor and integrity"
