Example: "Colbert is a leftist goon. I think it's hilarious when liberals always talk about how the Republican party is dead; however they can't refrain from making such wild allegations such as calling them KKK members, terrorists, etc.

So who's really scared? I think it's the left by far.

A little history lesson though. What party did KKK members belong to when it was started? Democrat. What party was for slavery? Democrat. What party was against civil rights? Democrat."

The Government & Politics section of Yahoo Answers is currently dominated by Republicans.(just so you know)

1. Oh boy. I predict this will not end well...

For republicans.

[SalviaBlue]

2. You mean the dumb asses finally figured out it was satire and he isn't on their side.

I wonder what tipped them off finally.

[gatorboy]

3. Absolutely we're scared of Republicans.

Because they are full of KKK members and terrorists. :P

4. That's why I dumped my Yahoo email and no longer use their "myyahoo" page

I noticed it in their news stories as well. Gotta take a side I guess. Hoping Rupert will buy them out before Gates does.

[monmouth]

11. My att.net (DSL) has the Yahoo home page and I cannot stand it.

Do I even need att.net now that I have DSL?? Yahoo is ready for me to dump them also.

5. Too funny!

It took them how many years to figure out he wasn't a real Pubbie?

:rofl:

I'm afraid of the GOP... and the KKK... and domestic terrorists...

Sorry for being redundant, but I'm hoping some of the dumbasses are lurking:)

6. A little hard to follow

but this part-

A little history lesson though. What party did KKK members belong to when it was started? Democrat. What party was for slavery? Democrat. What party was against civil rights? Democrat."

Is actually the truth.

[redqueen]

7. And it's actually irrelevant if you bother with ... I dunno... RECENT history.

Such laughable nonsense. :rofl:

[provis99]

8. sure, it may be true, but its also irrelevant.

We are living in the here and now, where the party of the KKK, neo-Confederates, and racists is the Republican party, thanks to Nixon and the Southern Strategy.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

12. Wheee! The Republicans were cool 150 years ago!

That doesn't give them a free pass to be assholes now.

[LeftinOH]

13. Its always been conservatives vs progessives, regardless of what party name they happen to use;

if the Republican party was (still) the progressive party it once aspired to be, then this site would be called Republicanunderground.com.

In the evolution of party politics in this country, progressives *just happened* to find themselves drawn to the Roosevelt/Kennedy/Clinton wing of the Democratic party (and have somewhat come to dominate it), and the conservatives have been drawn to the more recent Reagan/Bush/Jesse Helms brand -and have essentially taken over the Republican party. The Teddy Roosevelt/Eisenhower Republicans are mostly extinct.. just like the George Wallace/Strom Thurmond Democrats are mostly gone.

9. Yeah, I also said Fuck-Yoo to Yahoo!

I also prefer Google as a search engine and got rid of the republican CEO and Yahoo from all my computers...though slimy Yahoo keeps showing up slimely mixed in with with software downloads!

[Jo March]

10. What party doesn't exist? Democrat.

It's the DEMOCRATIC Party.

Dumb fuck.

[seabeyond]
