Truckers' Trucking Forum/Message Board - The Premiere Truck Driver Forum

Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

[quote=Kalamity Jane;451991]We're all Adults here....

The Ten Things Republicans Should Never Say to Democrats

10) “Why Can’t You Reach Across the Aisle and Work With Us In a Bipartisan Fashion Like Joe Lieberman?”

OK, first off, Lieberman is no more a Democrat than Richard Viguerie. Lieberman is like a faux punk rocker who wears clip-on body jewelry. He’s the embedded mole in the Senate sent to us from the Knesset and the Likud party. Caucusing with the Democrats while voting with you maniacs at every opportunity up to the point of publicly endorsing John McCain is so openly hypocritical that I’m amazed members of both parties don’t throw this simpering, skeletal ########## a boot camp blanket party.
First of all, Joe Lieberman is not what most true "conservative" voters look up to either. Don't blame him on me. Lieberman is "faux" everything, however, he "is" a Democrat and was your parties poster child's choice for VP.

Secondly, any naïve attempt to reach across your side of the aisle will only result in getting pulled over into your turf whereby any poor, uninitiated naif will get mercilessly rogered and shagged to the point of fatal anal hemorrhaging. It’s notable that Republicans only call for bipartisanship when they’re down on one or (as in the case of Larry Craig and Mark Foley) both knees. If it were up to a Liberal, there would be nothing but orgies, anytime, anywhere, ANYPLACE. Your darn teachers are molesting 10-12 yo children, and then leavin for lunch and meeting in public areas for sex with complete strangers of the "same sex". There "is" a moral decline in Washington, but a true "conservative" has faught it tooth and nail because we saw what was happening and knew the reprocussions.

9) “Where’s Your Flag Lapel Pin?”

I’m using it to pop Republican delusions that you support the troops while blaming them for their own squalor when scandals like Walter Reed come out, when you deny them adequate body armor and steel plating year after year, when you vote to cut their VA funding, make their death benefits conditional on wearing the shoddy armor you do give them, when you vote to condemn them in Iraq year after year. The whole country is dealing with an outdated infrastructure, and our schools are no better. There actually "was" a time when our defense consumed the larger portion of our budget, but as you pointed out, after the cold war, funds were cut. How about taking some responsibility and stop shifting blame and realize "your" party is no better. THEY'RE ALL THE SAME. Your Democrates voted to send these troops to IRAQ, and they still support them being there. Get it in your thick heads.

If all Republicans donated and melted down their flag lapel pins it would still be inadequate for body armor for even one soldier becausethey tend to be made of gold, a soft medal useless against bullets. Besides, wearing a tiny flag on your lapel only gives you the appearance of minimizing the value of the American government and the role of the Constitution. The Constitution only matters to a Liberal when it supports what they want. That Constitution happens to serve me too. Nowhere in the Constitution does it say my "free speech" is conditional if it hurts "somebodies feelings" or offends someone. A liberals intrepretation of the Constitution means squat to me.

Here’s a couple of ideas since you “support” Iraq and the troops you’ve condemned to that arid sinkhole: Switch from American to Iraqi flag lapel pins. Or rather, that’s if your wonderful manufactured democracy created at the point of over 150,000 guns can get around to [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link. . Or you could supplant the American flag with the face of a fallen service member. I realize that’s over 4100 different varieties and that there are just barely over 250 Republicans in Congress but if you throw in the Bush White House, State Department, Pentagon and the Department of Justice, maybe you’ll only have to pull double duty and wear one face on each lapel. I love the way Liberals are now so supportive of our troops. Remember spitting in the faces of our Vietnam Vets? I have a hard time believing a Liberal cares anything about what our Vets think and feel. If you Liberals cared anything about our troops, you darn sure would think before you burned the FLAG they give their lives for.

“It’s the Fault of the Liberal Media!”

Liberal media? What liberal media would that be? An overrated blog where literally every other post consists of “Heh, indeedy”? Free Speech TV, which is available on channel 9995 and has an operating budget smaller than most high school cable trust shows? The liberal media that never challenged any administration official from Bush on down when they tried to tie Saddam to al Qaeda and 9/11 and treats the administration’s most overtly fascist agendas as if they, at best, present stiff constitutional challenges? You mean that liberal media? You want to SEE what your liberal media has done to this country? TAKE A LOOK at what your smut is doing to our kids. [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link.
This is a bi-sexual reality show. THIS is what we Conservative despise about your "liberal media". We may have voted the garbage into Washington, but things like this is what we were fighting. You can have all the filthy trash YOU want, but how dare you impose it on MY kids!!

7) “Barack Obama is (Insert any unchallenged lie here)…”

Black? Muslim? Even if he was (and he’s neither), then so what? What else have you got?

Barack Obama wouldn’t be the lightning rod for stupidity that he is if he wasn’t mulatto. If they demonized Kennedy 48 years ago for being a Catholic, they’ve made Obama the AntiChrist over a religion that he isn't and for his skin color. What amazes me is the sheer number of Republican chain emails that have circulated about Obama faster than Canadian pharmacy and Swiss Rolex watch spam. They blame Obama for being everything to being educated at a Muslim madrassa as a child to his Kenyan father leaving his white mother and being raised by his white grandparents in Kansas. None of which he had any power over (even if half of it was true, which it isn’t) because he was a child and we’re still left with the question of, How is it germane to this election and indicative of his fitness to lead? People are entitled to believe what they want about whoever they want. If you're dumb enough to believe this "golden child" is gonna save this country, then have at it. Whoever wins this election is the one you better fear, because you can bet your hiney it'll be who they "want" to win. Or, haven't you figured that out yet?

6) “Government Doesn’t Work and Ought to be Shrunk Down to Virtually Nothing.”

Uh huh. Then why are so many Republicans trying to get into a government that they loathe and that they’d love to see drowned in a bathtub?

It’s because of the government that your precious kids in business school don’t get drafted (make sure you thank Mike Gravel as you boot him off the stage) and get sent to Iraq or Afghanistan or wherever else that rat-brained #### that you insist on calling “Mr. President” will send us before his term is over.
~Snip~

Keep on spreading the "hate"...That's a real good way to get a unified "majority".

5) “But… but… Bill Clinton!”

This, by rights, ought to be the unholiest of unholies but Bill’s snarling at the press on behalf of his wife has burned up whatever little moral currency he may’ve had before Hillary threw her jester cap in the ring. So I’m moving it down to the middle of the list.

Bill may have had a blow job once or twice but do you really want me to enumerate how many Republicans just from that point on, starting with Gingrich, whose own mistress was even younger than Monica, have cheated on their wives?

Oh, it’s different because he lied about a family matter to a grand jury? Well, then let’s hold grand jury investigations about every other scumbag Republican who couldn’t keep his trunk where it belonged. Let’s start with David Vitter, who lied not to a grand jury about a now-dead hooker but the entire ####### state of Louisiana when he was leaving the House to run for the Senate? That is, we can get Ken Starr out of retirement when they stop giving Vitter standing ovations for coming clean only when the proof was about to come out. You need to look at what your own party says/feels about the Clintons. I think "fear" is driving you guys a little crazy right now, maybe its because there's a little truth in what we "christian conservatives" know?

4) “America is a Christian Nation Founded on Christian Principles by Christian Men.”

########. The only concession to religion was in the first amendment of the Bill of Rights, one that states that Americans will have the right to worship any religion without fear of persecution.

George Washington, instead of a God, believed in a spiritual energy, leading me to believe that if he was alive today he’d be running a blog devoted to Star Wars. Thomas Jefferson was a secular Renaissance man who was a scientist, statesman, diplomat, inventor and a polyglot who never wasted an opportunity to lambaste Christianity. Plus, if America is a Christian nation founded on Christian principles then why did the [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link. we have separation of church and state? If you read the writings of TJ, you would know he was torn on what he believed spiritually. He was right to want to keep a separation of Church and State because of the "false" people we have now. If you read the BIBLE you would know this was foretold. Whether you believe it or not, it's the way it is, and it's the way its happened. Placing blame is futile, because the "evil" is in both parties.

3) “John McCain Knows War and is Our Best Hope for Peace.”
John McCain doesn't represent me OR what I believe.


2) “Regulation is Bad for Business.”

Oh, so you‘re happy with paying $4 a gallon at the pumps? You’re perfectly satisfied knowing that countless billions of your tax dollars that‘s gotten poured into Iraq has been squandered on outfits like Blackwater, Halliburton, KBR, Bechtel, Parsons and a whole slew of other unregulated corporations that, combined, hasn’t given us one tangible piece of evidence of honest-to-God nation building (which still wouldn’t justify the invasion one bit)? You’re relieved that in 2005 the GOP-led Congress outsourced the drafting of a bankruptcy bill that removed any regulatory control over the nation’s lenders by making it virtually impossible for you to file for bankruptcy? Do you like paying bloated overdraft fees several times over because your unregulated bank allowed one transaction that resulted in an overdraft? Actually, I do believe there needs to be "some" regulation, but unfortunately they won't let me make the rules, nor to I have the "power" to fire everyone in Washington.


1) “Why Do You Hate America?”

Ooh, not a good choice.

I don't believe Liberals "hate" America, I believe they're as upset as the rest of the country that we find ourselves in this predicument. But, I also feel they need to stop throwing blame and assume they're part of the responsibility.

Destroying the Democratic Party and the pestilence it has spawned is not only a Right it is a duty. No more will this country’s discourse be monopolized by mind-numbing clichés, dumbed down homilies and inane platitudes that prey on the weakest of the weak and the dumbest of the dumb and, worse! Leads them to the voting booths no matter how incomprehensible their grasp of the issues. ("Just pull the lever, we promise your [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link. will be waiting in the back room".)



This nation wasn’t built by idiots and we're not going to let it be torn down by them.
WOW! KJ really beat you up with that post, huh? Everyone can tell because true to form, you've had to resort to shrill sounding insults peppered LIBERALLY with pure nonsense.
Why are you not able to simply and logically refute what she's posted? Is it because reasoned and sensible discourse will triumph over shrill hyperretoric every time?

Why?

I think the first three words of my post answered that question.

KJ can't "beat up" a flea. She says stupid things and then when challenged on them, she posts different nonsense. Like Obama, she's all fluff, no substance.

"Sensible discourse" and idiot liberals are mutually exclusive terms.

The thing that big duker was referring to is all their campaign BS they spouted to get folks to vote for them.

And then turn around and don't do what they say they were going to do. They made fools of themselves and fools of the gullible they were able to convince to vote for them.

Smurf, you and Mule are my favorite Dems, because you both seem to grasp the concept that a pos politician is a pos regardless whether hes a jack ### or and elephant.
