Republicans - The Treasonous Traitors of America

After learning the demise of the Bridge Loan Bill within the Senate it occured to me that these same individuals who always parlayed insite to facts towards " family values ", and " Competition within Capitalism ", proved without a shadow of a doubt just how threatening and destroying their conviction happens to be by voting down the Loan Bill.

Let the record show that one Senator, Richard Shelby of Alabama, has spent approximately $500 million dollars to land the likes of Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, and others to his state and has no problem with that. Especially where he can control the lives of the working class in this " Right to Work State ". Does that sound like capitalism and or freedom? I'll let you be the judge of that as I have stated in many blogs just how I feel about slavery i.e. Right to Work.

President Lincoln must be turning in his grave watching his beloved Republican Party shatter the lives and dreams of Americans within all 50 states all for the sake of greed and control. To see the " Economic " war between the states 143 years after the true Civil War that was suppose to end slavery style workmanship, only to have it rear its ugly head once more. Lincoln stated that " all that harms Labor is TREASON ". And this is what the Republicans have proven!!!!!!

I pity those in the South who unfortunately cannot and truly don't realize the significance their Senators played in a possible destruction of Americas manufacturing demise. They think they will get away unscathed, but quite the contrary as realism will emerge when the transplants begin closing those factory doors in the very near future without parts from the suppliers they depend upon here in this country. If the Big 3 Fail so too will the transplants. Mark my words Republicans.

1. Another South bashing post?
Good.

There need to be many, many more of them. Southern politicians have been a boat anchor dragging the country to ruin for going on 40 years, ever since Nixon came up with his "Southern strategy" to cater to ignorant racists. Even the Democrats in the last 40 years, Carter and Clinton, were stewed in the toxic sludge of Southern politics and culture for so long that they could not fight it, just choose their battles and acquiesce most of the time.

What would 40 years in the wilderness do for politics in the South? Probably nothing. They are, after all, the ones who decided that Al Gore was no longer one of them and rewarded his work in the Clinton Administration by voting solidly for the idiot in 2000.

4. You forgot the sarcasm indication on your joke!
If you were not sarcastic, then you have some serious issues with reality and myopia about the Southern states, which, last time I checked, were part of the Union. Wasn't it Obama...who said....we are not red states and blue states but united states? If you don't like the south, then friggin seceed!

8. But is it necessary for southern politicians to so completely dominate on policy?
Edited on Sun Dec-14-08 06:04 AM by mwb970
It's just one region of many, after all. But every time I hear some damned Republican spouting some un-American, inhuman crap, there's that southern drawl again (an accent I used to love, but that I now sadly associate with damned Republicans). Why is the Confederacy allowed to hold the rest of us hostage?

3. Ironically...
these are the same fuckers who bought all those gas guzzlers from GE, Chrysler and Ford, so why should the Big 3 have been motivated to start manufacturing 'green' cars? In the end, the Republicans are fucking all of us on the planet. As much as this galls me, I can't help but rejoice that they are going the way of the Dodo. Good riddance!
