It is difficult for me to communicate the amount of disgust I had last night while listening to
discussions of women as "submissive" wives (Bachmann's weak explanation of respect is absolute bullshit) and how fetuses are "the innocent victims" of a rape. No. WOMEN are the innocent victims of a rape.

I am so composed in real life but I was absolutely screaming at the television set last night. I HATE republicans. My feelings about them are nothing short of visceral.

Needed to get that out in a community that understands. Thank you.

5. For some in the Republican Party it seems . . .
. . . corporations are people and women are property. :eyes:

7. Consider that people of their ilk might just thrive on hatred.
They sure ain't livin' on love.

I try to pity their lack of intelligence and enlightenment, but it's sometimes difficult to do so.

8. I've been trying to be a better person,
but I can't help myself. I HATE REPUBLICANS too. They should NOT be allowed to breed and walk among us. How did I get to this place in my life? I don't know and I don't care. I just plain HATE them. :grr:

Carry on.

Hope your vent helped. I find I need to vent every couple of weeks or so... those people are monsters really.

10. The part that always sickens me is they want to force
women to have babies, but won't support health care, or taking care of the kids after they are born. They don't want to help the schools, colleges, etc.

They don't care about clean air, water, for the kids to live in. The don't care about food standards.

They don't care if a bridge collapses that teenager is driving on.

I bet most of them think this is the last days and we will all be in heaven soon so who cares about what is here now...

11. If One of Those Idiots Ever Became President, My Advice to Children Would Be
Stay a fetus forever. Never come out of the womb. The Republicans will fight for you and protect you for life, as long as you stay a fetus.

14. Although I share your feelings. A lot of America doesn't and will vote for her. Plus...
these are the same people who are in office now who are righting laws and policies---which ultimately fail but dont' support progressive movements.

15. I share your same thoughts
Edited on Fri Aug-12-11 04:25 PM by SmittynMo
With 90% of republicans, its always me, me, me, and screw everyone else. I am so tired of hearing/witnessing this, it makes me physically sick on a daily basis.

Someday, it will all come back and bite them in the ass. My question is when? Tax the shit out of these rich bastards and corporations that profit and never hire. 90% is a good number is today's standards. It was 75% before Reagan.

The ride of their leader (Reagan) and trickle down economics is about to come to an end.
