Let's look at some of the Democrat values from the last few years, shall we? It's very bad to denigrate the service of a combat veteran... Nope.
What about the Swift Boat vets? *smirks*
Every vote needs to count... Uhhh.
Apparently never in a Rep. run Fla. Reps are the ones who chose the early vote this year... and stoped all the recounts the last time. Try again.
A President who lies a lot is no big deal... Uh-uh.
I dont see any one other then some Dems trying to impeach him.. he is one scary ass mofo. Hell anyone who can lop the balls off of the CIA and pull all of the shit him and his cronies.. ( mostly his cronies ) have done you generaly keep your mouth shut untill he is a lame duck and on his way out.
And don't forget that great one from the 80's, Hate is not a family value.
Baby steps... just as with the last Human Rights movement it was not won over night. They had to take baby steps and so does the GLBT groups. Don't ask Don't tell was a *huge* improvement from instant court marshal on even a rumor of someone possibly being gay. I know.. I have friends who were court marshaled... and some who were honorably discharged and hush hushed out of the service under the new law.
Lets not forget the AIDS epidemic and the pres. at the time never once saying the word AIDS durring his admin. ( Regan) Instead of getting people educated so it could be sontained.. and lessened it became a "dirty disease the Gays got and deserved" The gay community were the only ones talking about it.. and educating people.. and *pushing* for research and public education on HIV and AIDS.
At least Dems have not been hell bent on Dominionism to the point of driving us into wars, killing our economy, lying, cheating, torturing, killing, and all the rest. Bush has allowed his cronies to do what ever so long as it went twords his driving goal of dominionism. He along with his admin have weakened and changed the public face of the rep party to the point where it is damaged beyond reconition.
It is true the Dems need to stop being such pussies and go balls to the wall... and stand up for the little guy. The middle class and hard working lower wage folks. I am sick to death of them kowtowing to the tax cuts to the rich... and the plans for the rich to get richer. But thier sins are so few comparitively.
Besides.. Democrats are sexy... who has ever heard of a good piece of elephant? (my fave political button I wear)
Hypocrisy. That's the value they have to sell.
Do you have a wide stance? Did you shoot drugs with your hustler boyfriend on Saturday.. then on Sunday morning scream from the pulpit about the evils of homosexuals?
Sorry to be so tough on you... but people in glass houses and all that.
There are wankers in both parties.. and good people in both parties.. but honestly there is a very small segement.... the NE "Country Club" Reps who are decent, progressive that give a shit about something other then *thier* tax cuts, and repressing the poor and minorites.
