just because * * wants to privatize SS
why do repukes automatically support him?

Shouldn't the Repuke Rep's look at both side of an issue before jumping on the Pretzeldent's sinking ship? After watching the SS hearings on C-SPAN yesterday, I am convinced that they are all retarded.

1. They've been assimilated. They are Borg
and Bu$hco is the Borg Leader.

5. Picard quote
"I will not give up the Enterprise! We've made too many compromises already, too many retreats! They invade our space and we fall back. They assimilate entire worlds and we fall back. The line must be drawn here! This far and no further!!!! And I will make them pay for what they've done!" - Captain Picard ("­First Contact")

>He must have been referring to republicans.

8. Whoo hoo!
I love Captain Picard. This gives me a great protest idea: The Democratic crew of the Enterprise (diverse as always) vs. the evil Borg Republicans! That would get lots of attention at a protest rally! I'm sure we've quite a few Star Trek fans around DU.

3. Social Security was a Democratic program designed to help
the very people who are not normally repukes. The repukes have been looking to kill Social Security for decades. They going to go along with bu$h's scheme because they detest the program as it lifts the less fortunates and middle class higher than the rich little schmucks think should be allowed and they don't ever have to draw Social Security themselves.
It is easy to take away a program that you or your knobbiest (the big corporations) don't want or benefit from regardless of how much it benefits the very people who actually vote (like that matters anymore).

4. You are so funny.
"Shouldn't the Repuke Rep's look at both side of an issue before jumping on the Pretzeldent's sinking ship?"
Repubs thinking for themselves. Repubs thinking about what might be best for the people they are suppose to represent.
My sides hurt from laughing. You really crack me up.
