Important Truckers Forum Notice!

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?

10 Things....

We're all Adults here....

The Ten Things Republicans Should Never Say to Democrats


We’ve all seen the battle of the sexes lists, such as the [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link. and the inevitable rejoinder, the [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link. .

Yet, no one has, to my knowledge, ever compiled a list of things party members should never say to each other, although [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link. have made grammatically and factually abortive attempts in that vein.

So here’s my list of the Top 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

“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?

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?

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.

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.

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?

3) “John McCain Knows War and is Our Best Hope for Peace.”

Oh, man, I’d have to devote an entire 5000 word blog post to do justice to this one. My in-laws are unconditionally voting for McCain, who, believe it or not, is the best the Republican party can offer up since that other doddering fool, that pen-gripping psychopath named Bob Dole. Their rationale? Well, pro-McCain emails are almost as ubiquitous on the internet as anti-Obama chain emails.

McCain recently stated several times that our troop strength in Iraq is now down to pre-surge levels. Since very few, if any, have been deployed back home without replacements, that means we still have upwards of 155,000 troops in Iraq. Pre-surge levels would indicate an occupation of 130,000 troops.

McCain also recently stated, again, more than once, that Shi’ite Iran was providing aid and comfort to the Sunni al Qaeda network until he had to be publicly corrected by his vestigial twin Lieberman.

These are the same people, mind you, who’d turned against Bush only when their Medicaid meds skyrocketed in price and their Social Security threatened to be put on Wall Street in a massive national crap shoot. But they have no problem voting for the next clown with an “R” after his name despite the fact that his domestic and foreign agendas and proposals are virtually identical to those of the #### he seeks to replace.

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?

Then John McCain’s your man, #######. Good luck with that.

1) “Why Do You Hate America?”


Ooh, not a good choice.

Let’s see: This is coming from a party that masterminded agendas that put countless tens of thousands (by now probably over 100,000) of innocent Americans on [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link. where they’re not even [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link. they were placed on such a list; A USA PATRIOT Act that reserves the right to audit our private reading material; A Military Tribunal Act in which the president reserves the right to seize and detain any dissident American citizen that he deems a national security threat; Warrantless wiretapping of our phones, opening of our snail mail, data-mining our financial records; NSL’s, or [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link. , that give the FBI unprecedented latitude in asking for business records for Internet Service Providers and lenders, among many others, without our knowledge or consent and for the flimsiest of reasons.

The disappearance of a major American city and 1800 dead while our leader ate cake with the guy who seeks to replace him; [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link. due to budget cuts; National ID cards that law enforcement officials can ask for at the drop of a hat; Shotgunning Border Patrol agents working on behalf of Homeland Security; Shunning of veterans during and after their service to their country in countless ways.

The list goes on and on.

So, you want to know why we hate America so much because we ask for transparency and accountability that could help all Americans?

How ####### dare you?

KJ

Liberals are idiots. They are self-indulgent, self loathing traitors who would rather destroy this country than loosen their necrotic death grasp on the last vestiges of their vanishing power.
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.

Why? Do you feel insulted? You shouldn't, after all, you're a "moderate".

Well not really, but that's your problem.

Pelosi & Dirty Harry have been running the show for 2 years now. What have there promises of better and cheaper Gov amounted to? Fuel from corn so prices are higher at the pump and at the store. War stopped? I think not. Illegal aliens still taking American jobs at will? Yes. And on and on and on and on---------. Now they want to put this Socialist somewhat Black w/ 95% Muslims in his family tree Jr Senator from the most politically corrupt city in America in charge. Not to mention that he has spent the last 20 years listening, working , campaigning, partying, with a bunch of white and black racists. That's not a very good alternative to me. And yesterday the Democratic party continued it's long time policy of racism by making the vote of a citizen from Florida or Michigan worth 1/2 that of other voters. Just like when under Dems blacks were ruled to be worth only 3/5s of a white. Or when Woddrow Wilson segregated Gov offices. Or the black barracks and internment of Japanese Americans under FDR. And Martin Luther King was wire tapped under JFK and RFK the wonderboys of the Dems. And of course the old Grand Wizard of the KKK Robert Byrd is still a Dem stall worth{when they can wake him up}. Just more of the same say one thing and keep em' down. The Republicans are not conservatives anymore. They still have a handful of good honest folks, but for the most part they are sliding into the same morass that the Dems have reveled in for more than 150 years. But I have to think I have a better chance of changing a party that has only been corrupted for a handful of years than taking on the unsurmountable task of remaking a party that has shown for decades that it cares only about tearing down all that the founding fathers worked so hard to assemble.

They don't get all the blame. Anyone in congress deserves the blame. However, alot of things have gotten a whole lot worse in the last 2 years. Like the fact that they have handcuffed American energy production. I'm a repbulican, but hardly a right winger, and I hold the repubs with much contempt for their poor performance. And to me the dems started out with assaulting any chance of having a positive tenure in congress when they selected pelosi as speaker, as they could have picked someone more representative of America. They could have set a positive moderate tone, and they refused to do so, and came out spewing liberal gov't garbage. They are as bad or worse as any of the previous republican congresses.
