Have you seen this?
This is an email I received. Sums it up better than I ever could.


> BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF. LOOK AT THE FACTS:


>>
>> Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy
>> when Bush's daddy made war on him, a good guy when
>> Cheney did business with him and a bad guy when Bush
>> needed a "we can't find Bin Laden" diversion.
>>
>> Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is
>> communist, but trade with China and Vietnam is vital
>> to a spirit of international harmony.
>>
>> A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own
>> body, but multinational corporations can make
>> decisions affecting all of mankind without rules or regulations.
>>
>> Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals
>> and Hillary Clinton.
>>
>> The best way to improve military morale is to praise
>> the troops in speeches while slashing veterans'
>> benefits and combat pay.
>>
>> If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't
>> have sex.
>>
>> Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy.
>> Providing health care to all Americans is socialism.
>>
>> HMOs and insurance companies have the best interests
>> of the public at heart.
>>
>> Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk
>> science, but creationism should be taught in schools.
>>
>> A president lying about an extramarital affair is an
>> impeachable offense. A president lying to enlist
>> support for a war in which thousands die is solid
>> defense policy.
>>
>> Government should limit itself to the powers named in
>> the Constitution, which include banning gay marriages
>> and censoring the Internet.
>>
>> The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle
>> trades, but George Bush's cocaine conviction is none
>> of our business.
>>
>> Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime,
>> unless you're a conservative radio host. Then it's an
>> illness, and you need our prayers for your recovery.
>>
>> You support states' rights, which means Attorney
>> General Gonzalez can tell states what local voter
>> initiatives they have the right to adopt.
>>
>> What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital
>> national interest, but what Bush did in the '80s is
>> irrelevant.
>>
>> Feel free to pass this on. If you don't send it to at
>> least 10 other people, we're likely to be stuck with
>> "Bushit" forever.

9. this is a good start, but there's so much more to be added....
like dumbo's Harken escapades, day trading out of Frist and DeLay's offices, Abramoff, domestic spying

emails like this take constant updating

10. Thanks for the responses**
I think its a good email to send out to those who see things from a pretty limited perspective.

Im sure there is more that could be added. At the same time, short and sweet sometimes makes the point more powerfully don't you think?

16. I was only halfway through reading this when my brain
attempted to escape in search of a Republican to slap.

Oww! Bizarro world logic hurts.

18. LOOKING FOR A REPUBLICAN?
I have a suggestion, if you can't find a dumb assed republican, just hurl something resembling intelligence into the room and wait for the first member of the GOP to rush in and spin it around till it makes no sense at all - except to the other red people who believe what they see on FOX News.... That usually works for me.

22. Very concise and pithy. Will email to mom, who keeps getting pro-** emails
from other relatives. She can forward it to them if she feels so inclined. :evilgrin:

23. Exit Polls in Ukraine vs Exit Polls in America
I'd add that one with some kinda witty saying. But it's late.
