Whiner Politics

When you have all three branches of the gubmint in your control, and you still don't have enough there's some other problem. Really. Check it out.

Christa Criddle is not the sort of person who springs to mind when political operatives talk about "opinion leaders."
...
"What will our country be like if John Kerry wins?" she implored her guests to imagine. "That scares me to death. . . . Liberalism today is modern socialism."
...
Or an influential may be a more conventional sort such as Criddle, a cheerful and articulate woman who dropped her Junior League commitment to devote all her volunteer hours to Bush. She says she keeps Fox News "going pretty much 24-7" because she believes it is best for political news free of liberal bias. She runs her errands sporting her "Friends Don't Let Friends Vote Democrat" T-shirt.
...
Linda Zins-Adams, who teaches German, regards the presumed Democratic nominee as a rudderless phony who is running only because "he's bored and wants something to do -- he has to have a reason for his $1,000 haircuts." Various speakers denounced the alleged Democratic view that terrorists should be prosecuted rather than have war waged against them. They also carped about the United Nations, welfare, Hillary Rodham Clinton and abortion-rights supporters. One man, visibly emotional, said liberals have rejected God and declared, "Hitler was a liberal."

There it is folks, the face of the republican party...they think we're the fascists, they believe that they are entitled to rule, and they are gaining ground. The article focuses on the Cincinnati area, an undeniably republican stronghold in Ohio and one of the top money-raising areas nationwide for the republicans and Preznit Sux4Bux; for what it's worth, all of Ohio is not like that.

These folks are determined to win and continue to trash our great country. We have to make sure that they don't. Donate. Volunteer. And especially: VOTE.

1. They are singling us out as being anti-American
stopping short of calling liberals socialists, not a bad thing in my mind, but it still screams "commie" to the uninformed. We really have to do the same and call the neo-cons fascists and that is closer to the truth.

I'm thinking about designing my own T-Shirt right now.
