Answer 1

do you feel this way about republicans?
I hate Republicans because they support this and any warmongering, chickenhawk administration that sends people in uniform, like myself, to inflict wars of aggression and imperialism on the rest of the world. My kid brother is in Iraq right now. If ANYTHING happens to him, you better believe that every single war-supporting, Republican ************ that I run into is going to hear it from me. They'll be lucky if they don't get a fist upside their numb skulls.

- I hate Republicans because they support the military-industrial complex that provides the materiel for these wars and diverts precious capital and resources from the rest of the economy. We can't afford universal health and unemployment insurance, subsidized higher education and recovery for the country's crumbling infrastructure because of this wasteful and immoral subversion. This vast and overly redundant arsenal provided a handy incentive for Bush and his sycophants to engage in a war of choice that, in no way, enhanced our security, protected our allies or met a credible threat to our country.

- I hate Republicans because they readily use the tactic of employing stomach churning jingoism that gives these immoral foreign misadventures their popular drive and moral justification. This perverts the true nature of patriotism that, otherwise would induce young American men and women to wear our nation's military uniform and take an oath to protect and defend it and our nation's Constitution against all enemies, both foreign and domestic. Instead we wear it to maximize Halliburton's profit margin.

- I hate Republicans because they're willing to go to no end to lie, distort fact, hide the truth, embezzle, kill, subvert the law, commit any underhanded act in order to hold on to power. These people do not play by the rules. Never have and never will.

- I hate Republicans because they hate the Republic. They're willing to turn this country into a plutocratic theocracy, or even an outright dictatorship, that employs every Orwellian trick in the book in order to maintain their hold on power.

- I hate Republicans because they reject the egalitarian legacy of the United States. They're willing to engage in a campaign of social Darwinism, (Ironic, in that most of them reject Darwin) to keep the country embroiled in various racial, gender, class and religious struggles as a mechanism to divide the general population. For instance, they use loaded code words that relegate Americans of non-white, anglo-saxon heritage into the category of demi-American and objects of derision and fear. I take this fact personally.

- I hate Republicans because they're always willing to poison or destroy our air, land and sea to make a filthy buck.

- I hate Republicans because they think that they have some moral or social superiority that entitles them to have dominance over the rest of us.

- I hate Republicans because all of them are hypocrites of the worse order. Hate abortion, but love wars of aggression and the death penalty. Love freedom of religion, but hate all religions other than their own. The biggest of those hypocrites are the ones who know better. The ones who know that the party is run by the biggest gaggle of miscreants that was ever shat out by humanity. They are willing to give in to every recidivist policy that represents utter contempt for anything that's good for the country, because they know that those are the very tactics that keep them in power.

Now I could come up with more reasons why I hate Republicans, oh yeah, lot's more. But I won't, because I don't want my blood pressure to go through the roof. So I'll end it with this: **** all of you Republicans. **** your mommas and your daddies and all the horses you rode in on. I salute you with an extended middle finger that exemplifies my utter contempt for you and everything you stand for. I hope you all burn in your much deserved special circle in Hell for everything you done to this great country.

I can't wait until we kick your sorry asses in November.

Answer 2

the only part that is true is 2. George Bush and the Republicans failed to get Osama bin Laden..

and that is because we went into Iraq, and they had nothing to do with 9/11. and If our forces ever leave Iraq we might have another Iran on our hands. in my opinion what ever government that is in place in Iraq will be considered A puppet government of the United States.
Even Fox news is saying that they are having a civil war over in Iraq
but time will tell if I am Right or not

Answer 3

1. 9/11 is fishy as all gitup! George W. Bush's brother was head of security for the buildings and the airlines that hit the buildings.

George Bush signed an executive order w199i (I think it was) ordering the FBI & CIA to back off and not arrest the ones blamed for being the terrorist on 9/11. (Oh, and about half of the people said to be terrorist on the planes on 9/11 have been found alive by various news reporters. Sight: Loose Change)

2. Osama Bin Laden was treated at a US Hosbital in Dubi (spelling) and was met with by CIA guys. Also, George Bush Sir (head of the CIA before he was president, and I believe still part of the CIA secretly. - They are the CIA, secrets is their job!) trained Alquida and funded Osama to be terrorist to the Russians. Personally, I think the CIA just needed a Goldstein for 9/11 and picked Osama. I think Osama is evil, but I don't believe he was the one responsible for 9/11.

.....

9. The patriot act can't superseed the Constitution (which G.W. would love to have changed) but as long as people believe it does and allow it to, the patriot act has more governmental oppression powers in it then Hitlar put down on paper.

Republicans/Democrats They're both the same now days... the only thing they argue about is abortion & gun control.

(It's funny how Republicans will protect your ability to kill people who have been born... Democrats want to take away your ability to kill people who have been born but protect your right to kill an unborn baby.)

Other then that, they both have the same agenda when put side by side....

Finally, Clinton had the Oklahoma City Bombing which according to the investigators (who were fired after they turned in their report) was blown up by the ATF.... and Clinto passed anti-terror laws as soon at that happened.

Repbulicans, Democrats.. whatever.. they all should have built a fence on the border a long time ago!

Why do I have to get searched getting on an airplane, but illegals can walk across the border and rape my neighbor, steal their TV, and then run back across the border... never to be arrested?


BUILD A FENCE! I want to know who's coming into my country. If you want to live here FINE! Just come legally! Identify yourself coming in! I shouldn't have to identify myself once I live here, and niether should you after your in.

I don't mind people coming to my country searching for a better life, that's what my country is about. Just identify yourself and pay taxes according to the law.

Answer 4

911 happened just months into their watch, read what Osma said about America when Clinton was in power. Or is it you just want to rant and not look at the truth? Remember the USS Cole, the bombs in the Twin Towers in the 90's,The embassy bombings? Both parties have had failures. All with a democrat in power!Why don't you worry about the real enemy instead of spouting party reading points?
And to TOUGH as HELL. Get a life you hate the warmongering republicans but your going to bust their heads? Not only are you a hypocrite but i doubt you'll hit anybody any bigger than Ann Coulter. Most of America has family in Iraq. I'm on my third if you count my cousin. When sign up you do the job. I'm proud of your brother.
