God Help America

What we need in THIS country is someone to say this.

Mirror.co.uk - Brian Reade

THEY say that in life you get what you deserve. Well, today America has deservedly got a lawless cowboy to lead them further into carnage and isolation and the unreserved contempt of most of the rest of the world.
...
A self-serving, dim-witted, draft-dodging, gung-ho little rich boy, whose idea of courage is to yell: "I feel good," as he unleashes an awesome fury which slaughters 100,000 innocents for no other reason than greed and vanity.
...
Instead America chose a man without morals or vision. An economic incompetent who inherited a $2billion surplus from Clinton, gave it in tax cuts to the rich and turned the US into the world's largest debtor nation.
...
A RADICAL Christian fanatic who decided the world was made up of the forces of good and evil, who invented a war on terror, and thus as author of it, believed he had the right to set the rules of engagement.
...
As for the ones who put him in, across the Bible Belt and the South, us outsiders can only feel pity.

Were I a Kerry voter, though, I'd feel deep anger, not only at them returning Bush to power, but for allowing the outside world to lump us all into the same category of moronic muppets.

The self-righteous, gun-totin', military lovin', sister marryin', abortion-hatin', gay-loathin', foreigner-despisin', non-passport ownin' red-necks, who believe God gave America the biggest dick in the world so it could urinate on the rest of us and make their land "free and strong".

You probably won't be surprised to learn of would-be Oklahoma Republican Senator Tom Coburn who, on Tuesday, promised to ban abortion and execute any doctors who carried them out.

He also told voters that lesbianism is so rampant in the state's schools that girls were being sent to toilets on their own. Not that any principal could be found to back him up.

These are the people who hijack the word patriot and liken compassion to child-molesting. And they are unknowingly bin Laden's chief recruiting officers.

Instead, we get shit like THIS from the democratic party:

Democrats Map Out a Different Strategy

WASHINGTON — Reeling from their party's loss in the presidential election, some key Democratic financiers and strategists say they have learned a clear lesson: Next time around, no Northeasterners need apply.

The blue-state party needs a face from a red state if it is going to expand beyond its base on the two coasts and preserve its hold on the Upper Midwest, where its long-standing appeal to voters has become tenuous, these insiders say.
...
"We have to be very careful about the kind of candidate that we nominate and where that candidate comes from," said Scott Falmlen, executive director of the Democratic Party in North Carolina, where Easley won in a landslide Tuesday despite Kerry's lopsided loss there to President Bush. "This party has got to get in a position where it does not write off an entire section of the country."
...

The republicans didn't abandon their base when they were loosing seats in the congress -- they strengthened it. If this is all the democratic party thinks of me, then I'm builing my bomb shelter, buying my assault weaponry, and stocking up on water and Spam because I will NOT compromise my values to kiss the ass of the red-neck son-of-a-bitch that would just as well see gays executed. Now, I am not stupid enough to think that homosexuals are the democratic base. We are a small fraction. But if my party starts to look to the opposition for a model, where does that leave me? Will the democrats stand up when homosexuality is outlawed? Will the democrats stand up when the arts are no longer funded and galleries shut down because the Christians don't approve? The Christians in Texas have already started working on changing textbooks to read that marriage is defined as between a man and a woman. How long until the Christians want to insert in the textbooks that this is a Christian Nation founded on Christian princples? Will the democrats in office stand up and say something, or will they moderately disagree because they want to appeal to Johnny NASCAR Redneck?
