Tired of the Republicans - Who shares my feelings?
What a worthless collective pile of turd.

Nothing more to say.

1. They long ago stopped caring about Americans.
I find it hard to believe that anyone (with at least half a brain) would still belong to the Republican party.

7. Hey Mouse, hello from Mesa
Where are you at?

I emailed Kyl, McCain and Flake (my Rep.). Kyl had a cookie cutter reply sent to me (my reply to said reply bounced back).

McCain still no answer, Flake either, but Flake did reply my with a personal letter last time (hmm, maybe me calling him "Brother Flake" did something -my wife is LDS, not me, I was emailing him in the name of my entire home).

12. I'm in Glendale.
I so hope we can get some Dems in office soon. This state deserves better than McCain and Kyl.

21. I thought they would rebuild their party around a new platform ...
... a close their old bag of tricks, throw it away.

It seems that they are not going to do that.

I thought that Flake could represent the new generation of Republicans, but nope.

2. They still win elections. They must somehow reflect the views of their constituents.
That's the mysterious part. How can their constituents be so wrong-headed and misguided?

28. Fear mongering. And destroying is easier than building.
They are against progress. It is easier for them to destroy what is new, because they cannot adapt to it and embrace change.

Example: Galileo vs the Vatican.

That's part of the history of the world.

3. I think I was tired of them back in '87.
Back in '97, I was so sick of them I could puke. In 2001 I absolutely hated them and their idiot spawn. In 2003 I screamed my rage at them to the Universe for starting a 6 year mass murder spree in Iraq. Now I'm so completely over them I think I am thinking of creating my own reality where they don't exist. Fuck 'em. They aren't worth an ounce of my emotion.

9. They're subhuman scum. Perhaps it's a genetic problem....
.. some studies seem to indicate that people who tend to have such views as Republicans do are born terrified individuals who believe in hierarchy, following alpha males, punitive behavior, need to have an enemy and if there is none, they will create one, and (most important) they worship the rich and powerful, and abhor the helpless and weak.

I don't care if it's genetic tho. They're sick, ignorant sh*theads and that's all they are.

13. Obama is a strong man but.... he is Black / Socialist / Arab / Muslim / Kenyan / French etc...
He is an alpha male, he is rich and powerful, but he is not
like them. That is why they are so determined to prove he is
not American and therefore illegally elected President, as
this would remove him out of power (really, they want to see
Joe Biden President?!?)

That's also something common to these people.

But you are right about what you said: I have flipped some of
them like a coin on their opinion by simply being dominant,
assertive and strong.

If I looked like a "weeny Liberal", not a chance I
would be able to flip them.

That's why I am glad we have a guy like Ed Schultz, by the
way.

26. That's true! You've made me see the issue more clearly by
what you explained about being dominant and strong, but on the good side of things. Repukes can't stand that.

10. Been tired of them for years.
I'm so tired of them I'm beyond anger most of the time. It's just too much energy to expend on a hopeless cause.

11. You have NO IDEA...
I have to work with these freaks - all day-every day-day after day after day after day...
Listening to their STUPID endless REPUBLICAN GOOD! DEMOCRAT BAD! LIBERAL DEMOCRAT EVIL! hate filled racist bullshit.

I hate to say it, but I'm at the point where I really have to resist driving someones nose into their stupid fat fundy faces.
They don't like me much down here in Florida.
What shocks them, is that I fight back and when I unleash a barrage of FACTS on their ass, they react in shock and can't believe that a self professed "liberal" is in their face REFUSING to back down.

They HATE me.

I really need a vacation.
I really do.

14.  I no longer listen to them at all.
Their lying is so pervasive that the only truth they tell is how they personally feel. I don't honestly care how, what, or if they feel.

Can't wait for Obama's reeducation camps! Of course, for Republicans the "re" is purely symbolic.

19. Please, do tell... I've gotten to the point where I am wondering
how our differences can be reconciled. We are of two diametrically opposing views and I just don't see the tolerance of each other being sustained indefinately.

22. I don't think we can reconcile with them.
Mutual ignoring seems to be the best policy if one wants to avoid conflict. The profound difference in values isn't going to be resolved rationally, because people's values (on both sides of the fence) rarely spring from entirely rational sources.

27. And people voting AGAINST their interest
Edited on Fri Jul-24-09 09:20 PM by AzNick
The GOP is so shameless that they exploit the lack of education and intelligence among this uneducated bunch.

In Europe, the equivalent to these parties score between 5% and 15% and 15% is a lot, believe me.

Here the GOP gets close to 50%
