ORIGINAL: TheHeretic quote:
ORIGINAL: kinksterparty Dear Republicans: the next time any of you thinks about saying anything regarding abortion, women's rights, or the LGBT community, just punch yourselves in the face instead. Twice. Or maybe you could punch yourself in the face, twice, and give a listen when some of us do just that. You're likely to be surprised. Some people on discussion boards, I don't doubt. But when the clowns like Akin come out and start the "Magic Vagina Brigade" routine, or equate homosexuality with pedophilia, or some other outlandish bullshit, that drives even more people away from the party. I'm not a supporter of Democrats or Socialists. I lived in a "Socialist paradise", thank you very much. And I will fight any attempts to install the same horror in this country. But while I'm [mostly] on the Republican side as far as fiscal and regulatory things are concerned, they seem to be making every possible effort to wreck their popular support. Not even "make people question them", but outright drive them away. And yea, I'm just a tiny bit pissed-off that the only group of people who has a semblance of principles that could possibly avert a full-on economic disaster, makes a showcase of demonstrating how backward and intolerant they are on social issues. "Congratulations, guys, you've appeased the tiny percentage of fundamentalist-oriented Christians - who would have voted for you anyway, at the cost of driving away anyone who actually believes that women should have the right to abort, and gays/lesbians should have the right to be married."
