Fuck the GOP, Tea Party, and everything they stand for

Sorry, I cannot bring myself to be nice to those who want to:

* Lower taxes on the ultra-wealthy, but increase taxes on everyone else
* Promote military conflict with other nations
* Oppose minority rights
* Increase efforts to block minorities from voting
* Take away a woman's right to choose
* Support the police state
* Erode our civil liberties
* Promote Christianity as a quasi-official (if not official) national religion, and harass "non-believers"
* Increase the power of corporations at the expense of the working person
* Eliminate the safety net for those who need it most
* Make health care a privilege, open to those who can afford to pay

I could go on and on and on...but you get the point

ITA. In the past I have never wished ill on a group of people. But now I would get arrested for how I feel towards them.

Low spot of my day was reading about SC gov Haley defunding rape and spousal abuse crisis centers. You know, because raped and abused people are a "distarction".

I thought aging Moon was backing away from manipulating U.S. politics by selling his Washington Times mouthpiece.

I'm familiar with connection with Murdoch, from that Fox Business News guy ranting on the Chicago Options Exchange.

3 decades of Moon and Murdoch's media empires being their main source of news about their own country.

Moon and Murdoch are global fascists, and two global fascists, a Korean cult leader and an Australian extortionist succeeded in getting an entire group of Americans to hate their own democratic governance and are ready to accept the rule of multinational corporations led by the corporate elite. The global fascist agenda - NWO.

http://www.consortiumnews.com/2010/050110.html

-----

It didn’t even matter when Church insiders, including Moon’s former daughter-in-law Nansook Hong, provided first-hand evidence of systematic criminality. In an era dominated by Republican control of the federal government, U.S. authorities never seemed to put two and two together.

Though Moon’s operations in both Asia and South America were linked to major crime syndicates including the Japanese yakuza and Latin American cocaine cartels, federal prosecutors and congressional committees chose to look the other way.

That way Moon was allowed to continue pouring an estimated $100 million a year into his newspaper and other pro-Republican media outlets. Additional millions went to fund right-wing political conferences; to pay speaking fees to world leaders, including George H.W. Bush; and to bail other Republican political allies out of financial troubles.

I could not have said this better myself. I will say one small thing in defense of Christianity though. This shit salad that conservatives push on us as being 'christianity' is about as authentic as Steak ums. That's to say, none. Take a look at how they treat the poor and oppressed and then take a look at how the great figures in the Bible like Jesus himself and the Apostle Paul said to treat them. Totally at odds. That having been said there has always been a separation of Church and State in our nation and for good reason.

As for me I find their distortion of my faith just one more reason that I can't abide conservatives or show them the least degree of human courtesy. They aren't humans so much as demons.

Fox News, CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC...they're all in it to make the election closer than it should be. They don't seem to try that hard to call Republicans and the Tea Party out on their BS, and they make up false equivalencies all the time between them and Democrats. Plus whenever they cover OWS, they always try to use the most incriminating footage from Occupy protests in order to paint all liberals and protesters as crazy anarchists.

I was just looking up the definition of fascists to make sure I was clear on what they were and how they were defined. The description of their point of view is exactly that - fascist. They are anti-conservative and anti-liberal and would use violence in order to achieve it. Second amendment rights and all that crap. I call them the American Taliban.

Come On!

Hey you rightie assface
All you ever do is lie
You’re such a no good sack of shit
I fucking hope you fucking die
Every word you say is wrong
Not a lick of it is true
You parrot corporate talking points
But really you don’t have a clue

OH FUCKING COME ON!!! FUCK!!!
You gotta be fucking kidding me
The shit is right in front of you
And still you just refuse to see
OH FUCKING COME ON!!! FUCK!!!
You gotta be fucking kidding me
All the fucking bullshit that you speak
Just makes me so fucking angry

Every time I hear you talk
Its clear there’s nothing in your head
The world would be a better place
If your dumb ass was fucking dead
I’d be almost tolerant
Of all your ignorance and shit
Were it not the fucking case
That you take such fucking pride in it
God you take such pride in it
God you make me fucking sick

OH FUCKING COME ON!!! FUCK!!!
You gotta be fucking kidding me
The shit is right in front of you
And still you just refuse to see
OH FUCKING COME ON!!! FUCK!!!
You gotta be fucking kidding me
All the fucking bullshit that you speak
Just makes me so fucking angry

You gotta be fucking kidding me
You gotta be fucking kidding me

The point is then that you cannot debate?

So here's ABC news telling the American people that "Romney's tax plan would cut taxes for everybody" or

"Taken as a whole, Romney's plan reduces taxes for three-fourths of tax payers by an average of $4,700, the Tax Policy Center estimates. Obama's plan would lower taxes for 12 percent of filers and raise taxes for about 27 percent. Nearly every person whose taxes would go up under Obama's plan earns more than $250,000 per year, according to the Center's analysis."

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/OTUS/tax-plan-showdown-98-percent/story?id=16750398

And the only way you can refute this is by saying "fuck you"?
