It is possible to have a group of idiot azzhats that are worse than the GOP. I think that Mullah Omar and the Taliban might be almost as bad. They are though for sure the biggest group of brain dead fools in the Western world.

Raise your hand if you need more evidence proving that some Democrats think Barack Obama is the Messiah. Anyone?

Yet another drive-by post from A_Lexus. He should be awarded a patent.

Template for A_Lexus post:

1. bash all Republicans
2. gush over Obama as the greatest President ever
3. never offer a solution. Just complain.
4. don't come back to the thread for dialog

Line all the domestic issues up and the Republican positions are shameful and backwards. How did this country get stuck with a party that is the political equivalent of TOE JAM? When called upon to support positions which are no-brainers, they flounder mightily. Consider their positions.

1) Civil Rights - racism no longer exists.
2) Immigration - give us your vote, but self-deport.
3) Health care - if you get sick, die.
4) The poor - you were born that way and have inherent flaws. Live with less and get over it.
5) Gun rights - 2nd Amendment baby! Who cares if innocent people are killed by senseless acts that are on the rise.
6) Environment - only one I care about is the one that houses my profits.
7) Deficit - only care about it when a Democrat is President; Otherwise, who cares?
8) Spending - see explanation under Deficit.
9) Taxes - not on the rich. Everyone else can go to hell.
10) Dubya - he represents what we really are. Losers, so avoid discussion of him.
11) Medical research - not as important as warmongering. When Dem in office, ignore through spending cuts.
12) Technological research - see Medical research.
13) Education - see Medical research. Only the rich deserve the best education money can buy.
14) Economy - trickle-down, which has never worked and creates Recessions and Depressions.
15) Campaign finance - help the rich get Republicans elected despite atrocious ideology.
16) Medicare - get rid of. It costs too much only when a Dem is in the White House.
17) Jobs - foreign labor to maximize profits rules. Who cares if this displaces millions of qualified Americans.
18) Middle class - to hell with them.
19) Voting Rights - suppress all those who aren't fooled by our deceptive marketing.
20) Racism - it's OK, it's who we are.
21) Reality - stay away from it. Head in sand and foot in mouth is the way to be.
...so on and so forth.

It's clear, we must rid ourselves of Republicans in Congress and the Supreme Court if this country is to progress and prosper. Otherwise, stagnation prevails because of the stench they continue to represent.
Thanks for the laugh, can always depend on your posts for giggles

Yeah.... ummm cool story brah!


I'm not even a Republican, but if you think that one party firmly in control is good, then that must be some bomb a** partisan kool aide that you're drinking. There needs to be checks and balances, and when you have one party in control it's a recipe for disaster. On a smaller scale, I give you examples of rust belt cities that have suffered from one party control primarily Democrats... Detroit, and my hometown Cleveland.

Another meaningless feelgood restriction of freedom, down the poop shoot!!
This was better than a filibuster. Reid thought he had the votes....
This is how all those bills sitting on his desk need to be handled.
Stick them in the book on a vote, or throw them in the trash.
