Things Republicans believe
Things Republicans Believe (from the web)

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.

The United States should get out of the United Nations, and
our highest national priority is enforcing U.N. resolutions against Iraq.

Government should relax regulation of Big Business and Big Money
but crack down on individuals who use marijuana to relieve the pain of illness.

"Standing Tall for America" means firing your workers
and moving their jobs to India.

A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body,
but multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting
all mankind without regulation.

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.

Group sex and drug use are degenerate sins
unless you someday run for governor of California as a Republican.

If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex.

A good way to fight terrorism is to belittle our long-time allies,
then demand their cooperation and money.

HMOs and insurance companies have the interest of the public at heart.

Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy.
Providing health care to all Americans is socialism.

Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science,
but creationism should be taught in schools.

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.

A president lying about an extramarital affair is an impeachable offense,
but 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 driving record is none of our business.

You support states' rights, which means Attorney
General John Ashcroft can tell states what local
voter initiatives they have a right to adopt.

What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest,
but what Bush did in the '80s is irrelevant.

Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is Communist, but
trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony.

Supporting "Executive Privilege" for every Republican ever born,
who will be born or who might be born (in perpetuity.)

Support for hunters who shoot their friends and blame them
for wearing orange vests similar to those worn by the quail.

1. Love it
My favorite is: Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is Communist, but
trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony.

Of course this is a winner: A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body,
but multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting
all mankind without regulation.

2. All true. Not one exaggeration in the list.
No cheap shots. No lies. No BS.

3. what is the key to defeating Hillary?
"Jesus loves you, and
shares your hatred of ... Hillary Clinton."


http://youtube.com/watch?v=BnWP1JcA-VI

Jon Stewart to Bill Clinton on the hot seat: "Hillary Clinton may be running for president.

"If so, what is the key to defeating her?"

would you want to have a beer with her? honestly. not a shot of whiskey, a beer.
