Politics.

I got this email from my buddy Backlash. Kind of funny. Today is November 7 and we're supposed to be voting today. As little as this awesome "democratic" voting priviledge we have does, I'm still going to go vote.
I'm in no way endorsing the Democrats or any other party with this post. Right now there is alot of finger pointing going on and little work. So, here is my finger pointing. I know that our current situation isn't too tip top. And the people who are making the decisions right now, in my opinion, shouldn't be.
Take what you want from this...


Things you have to believe to be a Republican today:

Jesus loves you more than most and shares your hatred of homosexuals, socialists and Hillary Clinton.
Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him to fight Iran, a bad guy when
Bush's daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him,
and a bad guy when Georgie Jr. needed a reason to invade Iraq under a veil
of lies to access Iraqi oil, turbo charge war profiteering(making billions
through murder), and a diversion for his administrations' incompetence and
failure to locate Osama bin Laden.

Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is Communist but trade with
China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of International harmony.

The United States should not be hindered by the regulations and
restrictions of the United Nations...and our highest national priority is enforcing U.N.
resolutions against Iraq and Iran.

A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body and well
being...but multi national corporations can make decisions affecting all
mankind and the well being of the planet without regulation or
accountability.
The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in
speeches, lie about progress in Iraq, and simultaneously slash veterans' benefits and
combat pay while leaving them poorly equiped and without enough troop
numbers to be effective.

If condoms and sex education are kept out of schools ...kids won't have
sex.

A good way to fight terrorism is to belittle our long-time allies, then
demand their cooperation and money when it suits us and our incompetence
and arrogance repeatedly create horrible results.

A better way to fight terrorism is to illegally take and torture prisoners
worldwide, occupy a soverign nation while killing thousands of civilians
and demand that they adopt a form of democracy that meets with U.S. approval
and elects officials that we approve of and protect our economic interests.
Otherwise... its not the right kind of Democracy.

Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy, but providing basic
health care to all Americans is socialism... HMO's and insurance companies
really have the best interests of the public at heart... just ask their
CEO's who earn on average 460% more than the average wage earner in those
altruistic industries.

Global warming and tobacco's links to cancer are junk science... but
creationism and intelligent design shoud be taught in all schools.

A president lying about an extramarital affair is an impeachable offense...
but a president and his whole administration lying to enlist support for an
invasion of a country which poses no threat to the U.S. and has not
attacked us, to launch a war in which hundreds of thousands of people are violently
murdered and results in a choatic and destabilizing civil war which the
U.S. is caught in the middle of at $1.7 billion a day... that is solid defense policy and is making us all safer.

Government should limit itself to the powers named in the Constitution...
which include banning gay marriages, censoring free speech and spying on
its own citizens.

The public has a right to know about the Clinton's cattle trades ... but
George W's drug, drunk driving, and driving businesses into the dirt while
his cronies earn millions in stock trading records... are none our
business.

Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a fat
conservative radio host... then its an illness and you need our prayers for
your recovery.

War profiteering ( making money on building weapons and killing people to
secure your national interests) is OK!!!! We should do more of it... its
good for the economy and increases world wide respect for the United
States.

Corruption, lying about everything that does not fit your agenda, accepting
bribes, Selling votes, and ignoring everything that does not help your
agenda is the best form of Government... Let's call it Democracy... Lets'
call it good work Republicans...

Do you feel safer???? More proud of your country???? More secure about
your future????
Happy about the largest Deficit ever known to the U.S.???? Muder and
torture in your name????
