You gotta ask yourself...do Republicans want to destroy your life? Take away Medicare, Social Security and any other program you have already paid into? Do you want them deciding any privacy issues you still have? Do you want them, as a party, to decide for you and your body, your ability to vote and have it count? Do you want more years of deficits and huge interest payments, paid for by China and Japan? Do you really want another white stupid man who is only interested in making more money for himself and his pals on taxpayer monies...your money?
I love Akin...he's so politically naive. He believes the stuff he says and SAYS it....so refreshing; we knowing that they all believe the same things but shut up enough not to reveal how truly crazy they actually are.
I never hoped with Obama but at least his normal isn't an eighth as crazy as any Republican pol in this country.
I'm aching to destroy the Republican party and their crazies, rich, poor and stupid alike.

Think I'll wait on doing a victory lap.

(28,762 posts)we could start having fair elections. We would also have clean air, the solar ice caps would not be melting, we would not be at endless war, make a decent livable wage and we would all retire millionaires!

(4,407 posts)into us and "blue dog" democrats. I actually think this would be a good thing, like when the Whigs embraced the crazy and went extinct. To embrace the wings of the party should lead to destruction.

(39,961 posts)And those that are indecisive will go along with it. Republicans are Authoritarians, and they honestly believe that only a white male can make decisions.
They tolerate strong women, but mostly they believe that unless women are absolutely extraordinary, they aren't worthy of anything. Neither are people of color. Do you see where I am going with this?
Tell me I am wrong, because I am a female and have dealt with this since my feet hit the ground and tell me I am off base.
I am not. If you are white, and male, you have the American spirit within you to grasp - you can rule. Everyone else is going to have to fight harder than church to do it. That is privilege.
And many of us are going to overcome it anyway, but it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist.
