every time I think they can't get more redic they "surprise" me

no no, this isn't about old stuff like when they pretended bush lied about wmd's but dems that said the same thing didn't, this is recent

and don't get me wrong, repubs are hypocrites too (like dems now outraged that a rich person would try and be potus when john kerry was a great candidate a few years back... repubs also flip flopped by attacking kerry's wealth before but saying romney is good because of it. it can't be both, people.)


just a few quick examples:

so romney made a serious breach of protocol when he called jerusalem israel's capitol? outrageous! except clinton, kerry and obama all said the same thing when they were campaigning for potus. hmm...

romeny is bad because Bain did outsourcing? unforgivable! except obama invests in companies that outsource and many prominent dems invest in Bain itself! hmm...

romney won't release some tax records? Uphauling! except the dems saying he should (and implying he's a criminal) won't release theirs. hmm...

romney and richers that use "loopholes" are stealing from children! unacceptable! except when the kennedy's or Obama do the exact same thing they are just using lawful deductions and rules. hmm...

edit:christians that are against gay marriage are hateful bigots to be boycotted! except muslims that believe the same way can't be criticized for their religion! hmm...

repubs against gay marriage are hateful bigots. except obama has the very same stance*, and is a great guy. hmm...

*oh wait, that one's been resolved. lol


and on and on.

the worst part is that they do it because it apparently works. they look you right in the eye and tell you it's raining, even tho they are pissing on your leg, you see the peen, and see the stream. and people apparently buy an umbrella from them. it's amazing. it would almost be admirable (in an sell ice to eskimos way) if it wasn't so damaging

dems, when you see this stuff doesn't it make you mad, and disappointed? when I see repubs criticizing obama for helping mid-east freedom fighters throw off their oppressors it makes me ill, considering it was a good thing when bush did it. criticizing obama for not doing nearly enough would make sense (like how he's letting syria burn) but to criticize someone for doing what "your guy" did is the height of dishonest hypocrisy. I don't know if dems just don't care or actually can't see it



//rant

in before examples of repub hypocrisy that goofy libs will think I will defend (assuming they're real examples, of course lol)

ps don't get me started on the libertarian's hero who's is a bible-thumper who is against abortion lol

edit: sry for double post ldo

Didn't hear about this but Israel considers Jerusalem their capital, it is where the knesset is. The intl community does not recognize Jersusalem as their capital and all the embassies are in Tel Aviv. In reality, Jerusalem is where the government is. semantics

Yes their religious views have no place in government. And muslims should be criticized for their religion too if they were trying to impose their beliefs into law.

Everyone knows kerry married money, thats encouraged in both parties. Unless youre name is mccain then its frowned upon. Oh wait. He is a republican. As you were.

So what your saying is that Bush knew that his advisers were lying about WMD, but went ahead and said they had them anyway?

sorry. if you want to debate people on WMDs, 9/11, The Kennedy Assasination and if we really went to the moon or not you'll have to find someone else.

I'm not starting a debate over well established facts. Good luck though.

let's pretend -errr- say for the sake of argument that bush did lie. therefore, the dems that said the same thing also lied, right? thus they are dishonest when they said he lied but they didn't. now you can address the other issues. woot!

no examples? and dems just decided to start? whelp.

Dude, Repubs are the masters of spin. I'm not gonna go on a rant like you did but one example that comes to mind was Kerry vs. Bush and their respective war records. All you have to say is whelp? Are you ashamed? I'd think you'd appreciate the compliment.

actually, I'm voting for hope and change in the fall, my candidate just isn't clean or articulate enough to express his ideas in that way :-(

Oh, and OP; why do you hate hope and change?

Blue Point is a brewery. I'd have to know the specific beer by them that you had to give you a proper review. Most of their beers are pretty average, but their Pale Ale is not half bad.

orly?

So basically your saying Republicans are hypocrites but the Democrats are worse?
If that's your point are you trying to convince me to vote Romney over Obama, or do you want me to vote for all republicans over democrats?
I only saw politics and social issues addressed here. None of that shit matters when a government goes bankrupt and it's paper currency collapses.

Hope and Change did transcend race and the politics of personal destruction. We need more guys like The President who honestly focus on the issues then we can all just get along.
