These fucking GOP supporters are racist, bigoted, assholes. I'm sorry, and I know this is just being harsh, but look at them cheer racist questions, look at them cheering ending federal regulations of voting, look at them cheering African-American people "getting foodstamps" and not getting a job (Newt's quote).
The reactions to this African-American commentator just now, booing him for saying Newt is belittling people for "foods stamps."
Fuck these assholes. And fuck the Republican Party.
The United States is still in civil war. The Democratic party is infiltrated by these assholes. We must oust them (the Democratic infiltrators) and take back the country.

(55,981 posts)Big f'n deal. There may be a big difference in the different partie's grass-roots supporters, but as far as the corporate "supporters", there is no difference. Big corporations own both party machines. For sure there is a difference in the grass-roots, but not in Washington F'n DC.
Tell your congress-critter to stop accepting corporate bribes.

There is a difference.
The main problem is that they have been fighting for 30 years to control the country.
And just when we have an opportunity to get it back we're going to throw in the towel?

(29,257 posts)That was a STRONG 8 year presidency.
It has nothing to do with throwing in the towel.
It has EVERYTHING to to with realizing that the fight is fixed.

(62,276 posts)If you look at the vote breakdown though we're close to becoming a majority, if we fight.
Or we can just throw in the towel because we think the fight is fixed.
Frankly OWS isn't going to let that happen. These fascists will be ousted.
The people are tired of this crap.

It helps that all of them collectively are as intelligent as a bag of hair.
