When Republicans say "reform" they're screwing you

[Cyrano]

Tax "reform," health care "reform," election "reform." Whenever the Republicans attach the word "reform" to anything, be aware that all they're doing, or planning to do, is fuck over most Americans.

Tax "reform" means tax cuts for the wealthy and big business.

Health care "reform" means killing Obamacare and letting you die.

Election "reform" means keeping the "wrong" people from voting.

The same is true of any other issue to which Republicans attach the word "Reform."

I guess the Republican key to holding power is screwing as many people as possible.

5. Love to see your right wing Code Dictionary

Seems like it would be an excellent post for DU.

In some cases, they've been using the same code for years. But I guess that Trump is making some huuuge contributions to your collection.

7. Have only collected two entries so far

But I think it would be cool to have a "DU's Crowd Sourced Right Wing Code Dictionary".
That is not a very good name for it but I think it would be hand to have one for the upcoming election season.

4. Exactly

Anytime they talk about "reforming" something, you can expect the worst for 99% of us.

6. What pisses me off most is that the media

consistently repeats the Republican use of the word "reform" without explaining what the GOP really means.

Even The NY Times, The Washington Post, MSNBC, and so many other outlets, that are not right wing whores, never bother to explain what Republicans mean by "reform."
