So pretty much the entire Republican party is full of extremist right wing social conservative lunatics.
The same thing over and over from libs, "If you don't agree with me, you are a lunatic, stupid, etc., etc., etc."

Yawn, yawn, yawn!

If this were a sensible post, i said sensible! it would say, it is time to gear up for war on all politicians, who sing us priases, and sweet nothings. Get elected, and have their own agendas.
Sorry one side does not in anyway get a free pass for screwing up, and not the other. Neither party, is guilt free of anything, and should get their act together, or i should say Obama, and get this gosh dang economy truly going, not faking it.
And please no more promises of a fraudlent Hope n' Change.

They were, until Obama got elected and started going on a war binge and Kony 2012. The libbies have now developed a big thirst for war just like the average neo-con voter. Course, those of us that know how to do a bit of critical thinking, knew both parties are warmongers

This summer we all need to start gearing up for war against the Republican Party in the fall. The Republican Party has decided to declare war on most of us. Women are under attack, workers are under attack, teachers are under attack, blacks are under attack, Hispanics are under attack and the elderly, sick and disabled are under attack by the Republicans. In fact just about everybody but rich white males whom the Republicans still think "pay too much taxes" are under attack. The good thing is that there are many more of us and if we declare our own war on the Republicans this summer and through the fall, we can rid ourselves of this menace to our rights and freedoms and bring back some degree of sanity to the country. Here is what we need to do:

1. Organize and make sure every person eligible to vote is able to vote. The Republicans have passed voter suppression laws in many states BUT what they do not tell you is this: IF they require a government issued photo ID, it MUST be provided FREE of charge. Otherwise it constitututes an illegal "poll tax". And if it requires supporting documentation to obtain, such as an official birth certificate, that too must be provided free. States should have procedures and an affidavit process for both. We need to organize ID assistance brigades to go into poorer communities and get everybody a photo ID where needed.
2. We must target Republicans everywhere they exist. The reason they were able to take over the Congress is because we failed to stop them. The problem with lots of Democrats is that we think only the Presidential election is important enough to show up to. EVERY election is important.
3. Remember that the Presidential election is not ONE big election but 50 state elections. It is a winner take all system state by state in 49 of the 50 states (Nebraska allots Electroial College votes by Congressional district). But just because you live in a hopelessly red state does not mean you should stay home. There are Congress and Senate elections. Remember that the Federal Government is THREE branches. The Executive (President) is only one of the three. The others are just as important if we are to stop the Republicans.
WAR? that's a strong word...some of your fellow Dems. may be putting you on a potential terrorist list. Mercy....
