The various types of GOPocrites
It seems like to be in the GOP now you must have at least one of these characteristics:

Anti-Gay Gay People (Craig, Foley)
Pro-War now, but military avoiding in their youth types. (Chickenhawks - Cheney, Romney, Guiliani, etc etc etc)
"Small Government" types that shovel as much money to their state/district or cronies as possible (GOP 2000-2006)
Pro Marriage types who've been married multiple times (Newt, Limbaugh, etc)
Family Values types who visit hookers. (Vitter, probably many more)
Anti-Child abuse types who hit on Congressional pages (Foley)
Fervently Christian in talk, but not in actions. (Bush, various others)

(Feel free to add more)

1. List looks like debris as their party goes down in flames
Another one I might add would be anti-abortion rights and anti-stem cell research types who have no regard for the living.

They would not in a thousand years support orphanages and other funding for all the impoverished kids that would result. And it's their cruel and cannibalistic style of economics that makes it hard for many people to consider starting a family in the first place.

2. The Hardworking Blue Collar worker who votes against his own interests
Edited on Tue Aug-28-07 02:25 PM by YOY
The suburban soccer mom who feels that protecting her children means sacrificing their rights.

The fools who think the second amendment will protect them when they take all the others away.

The average idiot who considers himself a foreign policy expert but has never been anywhere nor actually studied anything near real history.

The moron who confuses patriotism with nationalism and considers being born within the boundaries of the United States a source of pride.

The worst kind of hypocrites, IMHO...the idiots who voted for the GOP.

6. "Anti-Gay Gay People (Craig, Foley)" - Sam Sedar has a section of his book
FUBAR: America's RW Nightmare dealing with this topic.

Sam is good.
