WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A REPUBLICAN

If one votes Republican it means one believes:

It is OK to talk tough at election time about national security but deliver zip afterwards.

It is OK to lie to the American people all of the time about everything.

GOP HOUSE OF LIES

W. AND WIFE UPSET WITH CARD FOR TELLING WOODWARD THE TRUTH

PATHOLOGICAL LYING COMES BACK TO HAUNT GOP

16% OF AMERICANS BELIEVE BUSH IS TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT 9/11

THINGS ARE GOING REMARKABLY WELL IN IRAQ ACCORDING TO CHENEY

It is OK to scare the bejesus out of Americans for the sole purpose of getting elected.

BUT WE ARE NOT STUPID. WE KNOW SOMETHING IS TERRIBLY WRONG IN WASHINGTON

It is OK to attack and smear an individual relentlessly for purely political gain, even when there isn't a lick of truth to the attack.

GOP ATTACKS ON MESSENGERS OF TRUTH

PROPAGANDA BILL SMEARS PELOSI

It is OK to make false claims about the rationale for declaring war on another nation.

BUSH FLIP FLOPS ON IRAQ

MORE CARNAGE IN IRAQ TODAY, OCT. 16

It is OK to go to war with no real plan in place after a military victory.

MORE REVENGE KILLING IN IRAQ

It is OK to turn our back on the real war on terror and start a war instead in another country with the end result of fomenting more terrorism. Turn on the TV and watch it all in real time.

It is OK to ignore a country that lusts for nuclear weapons. Now N. Korea is a not so small threat to our national security. What to do about it? Blame the shame on a former president.

GOP DROPPED THE BALL WITH N. KOREA

War is good for business, especially Halliburton. Rummy sat on board of directors for a company that won a $200. million contract to sell nuke reactors to N. Korea in 2000. In 2002 Rummy declares N. Korea as part of the axis of evil.

SELLING NUKES TO N. KOREA

It is OK to allow Americans to drown after a catastrophic hurricane, especially if those Americans happen to be minorities.

ON HURRICANE KATRINA

It is OK for elected officials to work for corporate interests, big business and lobbyists, even corrupt ones, instead of their constituents.

NON PROFITS TIED TO ABRAMOFF

ABRAMOFF'S FAR REACHING INFLUENCE IN OUR GOVERNMENT

It is OK for a known perverted teen predator to remain in Congress for purely political reasons. It is OK to split up the perv’s contributions among other GOP lawmakers instead of sending the funds to an appropriate charity.

FOLEY WANTED TO LEAVE CONGRESS BUT ROVE WOULD NOT LET HIM

It is OK to cater to the top wage earners in the U.S. and ignore the majority of them.

TAX CUTS FOR THE NATION'S WEALTHY

It is OK that the number of Americans without health insurance is rising.

CENTER ON BUDGET AND POLICY PRIORITIES

It is OK to gut social security and turn it over to a best buddy in the private sector who will do with American’s blood, sweat and tear money what Kenny boy did to that of Enron’s employees and shareholders.

WHY THE GOP WANTED TO GUT SOCIAL SECURITY

It is OK to give huge tax breaks to big oil and insurance companies while tossing a few pennies at average working Americans.

OIL COMPANIES GET BILLIONS IN ROYALTY PLAN

It is OK to increase the minimum wage in this country only if estate taxes are repealed for fewer than 1% of the population.

MINIMUM WAGE INCREASE BILL FAILS

It is OK to be gay, as long as one is quiet about it, if gays serve GOP political usefulness.

DICEY PATH FOR GAY GOP LAWMAKERS

It is OK to pander to and trick the Christian right for their political value and then after elected poke fun at them and vote on legislation that hurts their charities.

GOP TRASHING OF THE CHRISTIAN RIGHT

It is OK to put friends in high and sensitive positions in government although the friends have absolutely no qualifications or necessary credentials for these jobs. Remember ol' Brownie boy?

It is OK to vote yes to building a wall along our southern border without caring about the implications for the citizens and their communities in the impacted areas. It is OK to vote to build a wall before having done studies on its feasibility.

WILL A WALL REALLY WORK?

It is OK to ignore science.

IGNORING SCIENCE

It is OK that some, if not many, of our lawmakers are corrupt.

CORRUPT LAWMAKERS

MORE ON CORRUPTION

It is OK to sow the seeds of fascism.

SOWING THE SEEDS OF FASCISM

FOX HIDES UNFAVORABLE POLL RESULTS FOR BUSH AND IRAQ

It is OK to steal elections.

HOW AND WHY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY BECAME SO CORRUPT AND OUT OF TOUCH WITH AMERICAN VALUES

Connect the dots. Think about the GOP merging of fundamentalist religion, politics and big money. Who are the prime beneficiaries? After watching the videos below, check out the link at the bottom of this blog to President Eisenhower's warnings about a US military/industrial complex. I think you will figure it out. LS
