The liberal or as a certain person on the far left calls herself “progressive” thinks that being so very open-minded and tolerant of differences, and loves belittle each and every republican that dares to comment on her blog. These people are not the Americans of old, not the heroes who went over-seas and risked their lives for their fellow countrymen. –They're cowards who fear and try to squash any threat to their power over people's emotions. And they're certainly not bold nonconformists. You want to see a bold nonconformist? I'll show you a religious, conservative, a republican who practices what he or she preaches, and who is damn good at it. A conservative, or a republican who is proud to be one. This is reminiscent of a fellow Vietnam war Veteran<br />Who joined to fight for God and Country. He was brave and strong, a true American,<br />Who fought so that the Homeland could be free, Who came home to a country that told him he wasted his time and risked his life for nothing. <br />When Barack Obama nominated John Kerry to be America’s next Secretary of State , he called Kerry the “perfect choice” to replace Hillary Clinton. Perfect in what way? <br />John Kerry’s record shows us that not only has John Kerry been on the wrong side of every major foreign policy issue for most of his adult life, including Iraq, Nicaragua and most recently in Syria, but he has engaged in deception to conceal his true identity more than once. What’s worse, Kerry has a clear record of giving aid and comfort to America’s enemies, all the while never missing an opportunity to viciously trash our brave forces fighting against them. what a hero! Just like the Iraqi war resolution. "He voted for it before he voted against it." That says it all. <br />Much like his buddy Jane Fonda. Yes, and this same John Kerry who has been picked to serve as Secretary of State for the same nation he trashed. Picked by that other socialist Barack Hussain Obama. When one is an anti-American POTUS seeking its destruction, then picking Kerry and Hagel are splendid choices. Fact: John Kerry sucks, Barrack Obama sucks, Hagel sucks, the whole administration sucks. They all turn my stomach. So sit back my friends and watch as the glorious USA withers away through self-destructive stupidity and leadership that would make even a kindergarten child scratch its head in confusion. <br />As a Vet myself, I haven't met a fellow Vet yet that thought Kerry was worth spit!Princess Natashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17490184462361980906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-145653764764266444.post-83341144326980743272013-03-14T14:21:54.589-04:002013-03-14T14:21:54.589-04:00Thanks to those who made comments containing wit, ...Thanks to those who made comments containing wit, demonstrating knowledge, insight, sincerity and evidence of actual thought.<br /><br />You know who you are -- I hope ;-) -- and may God bless you -- whether you believe in Him or not.<br /><br />I extend my condolences to the many from both the liberal and conservative camps who chose to spew bile in a spirit of ill will or mischief.

Obama is the worse president in all American history. The Democrats should be ashamed for what they have done to this country. <br />The scary thing is the we still have another 3yrs and 10 months to have to put up with this imbecile.

The greatest number in this category, however, are the sadly deluded who think they do know the real story, because they get their information from Fox News, Rush and the rest of the Koch brothers’ minions. They have never looked at any rational set of facts (and they don’t want to). The classic “low-information” voter who makes a choice based on who they’d like to have a beer with.<br />The meaning of Stupidity: This group really bothers me. I’m sad to say I have acquaintances, really, I can’t call them friends, because my relationship with them is limited to what I read on their blogs. And those who do read and get their information from several sources, most of which is from political psychopathic radio talk shows,<br />and just plain refuse to acknowledge the truth, even when it hits them in the face like a dead mackerel. When the facts are placed right in front of you and you choose to ignore them – well, that’s just plain stupid. It’s lottery ticket thinking. It’s magical thinking. It’s thinking that somehow the rich guys are going to create millions of jobs instead of enriching themselves. It’s thinking that you might become one of those rich guys! Does the name Sarah Palin come to mind?<br />The meaning of Greed: Well, there are plenty of those in my town. I live in a beautiful little beach town on the Outer Banks. There are many here who have had successful careers (or were lucky enough to buy when this was just a sandbar with a gravel road). The average home price is over a million dollars (not mine). And a percentage of these lucky, lucky people just don’t want to share their good fortune with anyone else. They want to keep it all. And they will vote for someone who promises to let them hang on to more. <br />The meaning of Evil: I’d like to think this is a tiny percentage, but no, it’s a lot more than that. . These are the bullies, sociopaths and creeps. It’s not enough for them to have it all to themselves – they actually enjoy the idea of other people suffering. I’d include all of the homophobic, racist, women-hating assholes in this group. I suppose there is some very slight comfort in knowing that these people will never experience true joy, or love, or kindness. And when they die, no one will shed any tears<br />So, of the people you know who are voting Republican, which category is the largest? All of the above? Yes siree bob, you got it, they are ALL of the above, it’s safe to saythe GOP is the Party of Choice for Sociopaths and Psychopaths. How can a party with such a ridiculous cast of characters have such a massive following?

Instead of real-world information, they subsist on a steady diet of horsedung served up by the chefs at FOX and hysterical AM radio cranks. The election of Obama was never in doubt to anyone outside the bubble. Never. Teabaggers were jolted ONLY because they had been shielded from real polls and told to only look at the absurd 7+ Gallup tracking poll and listen to Dick Morris's rosey prediction of a Romney landslide. Now they're convinced there was some evil conspiracies afoot.<br />The ONE thing I love about this blog and it’s author is seeing another Republican throw a tantrum because they lost.

Yes, I DO hate Republic...Why do I hate Republicans? Yes, I DO hate Republicans. I loathe them. I hate people who support them (although I temper that with a 5% exception rate).<br />Republicans ARE fascists. They deny it and they'll even call liberals fascists (they love attempting to redefine words that describe them in an unflattering way). Not sure where this list originally appeared but you can Google it and find it in any of a number of locations. <br />Right now you are probably thinking any of a number of things. I've hear it all over the years. I'll toss out the "just another internut" and the like as not worth considering. Random thoughts also as I'd never fathom them all and really don't care to try. Somewhere in it all there will be those thinking I'm just an ignorant liberal asshole. Others will be waiting, maybe eagerly, for my explanation. Others will already be agreeing with me. I think my reasons are sound and understandable, even reasonable.<br />Liberals and those on the "left" have put up with attacks, verbal and even physical, from the right for years, decades even.,<br />Criminal Republicans won't stop and they won't compromise. The fact they will not compromise makes them incompatible with American life as we have come to know it.<br /><br />The Republican party is edging closer and closer to the Nazi party of 1940s Germany. Many on the Left are waking up. A generation has grown under the tender tutelage of Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly and their imitators who foment stochastic terrorism against whatever target they name on their Hate-filled programs. <br />People like Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Glen Beck, Micheal Savage and their imitators have made careers out of demonizing and verbally abusing their opponents for a generation. They make money at it. They won't stop.<br />Eventually even the nicest most polite person gets tired of the abuse.<br />The people on the right, those who have thoroughly enjoyed the actions of their Hateful radio heroes, and have benefited from their activities financially and emotional, are noticing that us liberals are fighting back and they are crying "UNFAIR!" and "WHAT''S WRONG WITH THE LEFT???". I find this hilarious.<br /><br />Hey Righties, YOU made people like ME. Aren't you happy with your work?
