Hate Gays, Immigrants and Flag Burners
Later Breaking News: The Memorial Day Message of the Republican Party!

The gop (the party of ideas) message to the fake patriots amongst us coming to a newsstand near you in the next couple of weeks. Republicans have to rely on the ignorance and hate of their base to succeed at the polls. As someone recently said republicans are great at winning elections but suck at governing.

As a retired Navy veteran allow me to take this opportunity on Memorial Day to say that my fellow American Citizens who happen to be Gay have the right to marry, those who are aggravated at our government have the right to burn the flag (why the hell have so many died on the fields of battle?) and I'd like to thank the immigrants for picking the produce that ends up on my table. We sure as hell can't rely on "conservatives" to do that chore.

And a special shout out to the "minutemen" who are spending their time building walls (awesome conservative symbolism) - "Its hard work being a fake patriot!

1. Are they REALLY building walls?
Or are they having illegal immigrants do it for them?

And they complain about the immigrants taking jobs - hey, I'd hire an illegal immigrant if he'd come to work every day instead of taking a few months off to "patrol the border," which I think is a euphemism for hanging out and drinking with their NRA buddies.

8. Stringing "bobwar" is a lot easier than actually building.
Gives you more time to act macho, what with your rifle compensating for your miniscule genitalia.

9. That's right. Six feet high and 1/4 mile long. I would call that an
exercise in futility. They must be doing it just as a gesture.

3. As long as "conservatives" are pursuing laws
or amendments that would restrict the constitutional liberties of Gays I strongly suggest gays not pay taxes. Fuck those hating bastards. I chuckle at the notion that they obviously want to retain their "right" to marry and divorce and remarry over and over and over again and yet feel it vital to protect the sanctity of marriage by keeping people who love each other from getting married. If their hate wasn't so real their ignorance would be a great big chuckle. I look forward to the civil war.

4. Rep. Barney Frank...(D-MA) says...
"The only people I know who were affected by gay marriage were some folks that lived next to a couple of lesbians...they got invited to the wedding and had to buy them a present."

Don't like gay marriage? Well, don't marry a gay, then!

7. Welcome Trisec
and if you are concerned about the sanctity of marriage, don't get divorced. What a novel fucking idea for "christians" to adopt.

5. With liberty and justice for all.
They stand, they pledge, under God, to the flag and they walk away to do as they like.
