"If you don't support Obama, you don't support the troops!"
New Facebook group for fun: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=47885164302

For 8 years, the Republican supporters of George Bush defended him by saying if you didn't support him then you did not support the troops. Now there is a new president and those same people do not support the president, so they do not support the troops, using their logic!

8. I'm in
Last night I was posting on the 24 forum on the Fox site (not Faux News...just the regular Fox which is not that bad) and someone was complaining about Obama's press conference making 24 start a couple minutes late and said something derrogatory about President Obama, and I wrote back 'I thought Republicans were all about rallying around the Commander in Chief out of patriotism during a time of war. So let's see you show the President some respect!" Man, that felt good!

15. How about this?
Turn this talking point around on them:

They used to say that we (Democrats) were INVESTED in the failure of America in order to get electoral success.

So now, let's ask them: How does it feel to be rooting for America's failure just so you can win the next election? Doesn't it bother you that your success depends on American's downfall?

:)

16. Or this.
When they complain about certain policies, say: If you don't like it, why don't you move to France!

17. How about this?:
all of us join the Republican Underground page on facebook (can you believe they even called themselves that?!!? Worst oxymoron ever) and everytime they send out one of those whines, we one by one send messages like the ones you listed. That'll teach em ;)

jk, I would never join a rethug group, even for such noble guerilla tactics....

24. I said that to a Repub. friend of mine tonight......
.... had the rest of my friends rolling around on the pavement. And the best part, had my Repub. friend speechless.

Whenever you can silence a wingnut, that's good fun!
