Memo to Republican supporters : Had enough yet ?

[kentuck]

I just put gas in the old wagon. In Colorado Springs, it is now 2.50 per gallon. Many people are paying taxes to Uncle Sam at this time of year because they had to withdraw from their IRA's to survive during this Bush "recovery". The deficits have shot into outer space. Our nation is the most divided since at least the Vietnam War and perhaps, since the Civil war. Our troops are dying for lies from the Republican leadership and their right-wing propaganda machine. Many people that are working now are working for much less money than just four years ago. Many of their jobs have gone overseas. Do you still think the economy is doing great and that Dubya is a "great" leader because we haven't been attacked by those powerful "terrorists"? Are you still afraid?

1. Their ignorance is what has supplied their fear.

Clearly, there is nothing to fear, except for the * administration. We on the "intellectual" side understand that.

[paineinthearse]

2. How do we get this message to every rethug?

Billboards?

Handbills?

Leave copies in doctors' offices?

On windshields in parking lots?

3. It's only $2.15 in S. Jeffco.

5. Top grade is 2.50 and 85 low-grade is 2.30....

in Colorado Springs this morning...

4. Seeing some cracks around the edges

in northern NM, but their is an Unhealthy Fixation and Identification with Bush for many Republicans. They cannot yet admit his many grievous sins and shortcomings, for it is too close to the bone. Condemn him and they must condemn themselves.

Still, each man and woman must face the mirror every morning, and truth has a way of working over time. So, as ever, I have a measure of hope.

6. I cant wait for the 5 cent break in gas prices in 10 years when ANWAR is

ready....:puke:

[Morose]

14. I remember reading a debate thread here a year or so ago

where someone was swearing up and down that Bush would never get ANWAR and people screaming about it were being CT nuts or some such....nothing to worry about...

WIsh I could find that thread again...I think some dismissers would have a big crow pie to eat...along with their $2.50 gas and soon to be despoiled wilderness.

7. i work at home and drive a car that gets 30 miles/gallon. i hope gas

hits $4 a gallon and all those assholes in hummers and suvs have to take out a loan to fill up their cherished gas-guzzlers.

[kentuck]

8. But there are people that cannot afford anything but the clunker ...

they have - which, if they are lucky, gets 15 miles per gallon. They bought it for $500 just to have something to get around in. There are many people in that situation.

[colonel odis]

11. i understand and sympathize with them. it's hard on them.

[OneTwentyoNine]

9. And remember how ballistic Repukes went back in 2000??

When for some em..."reason" gas went up about .30 cents per gallon around May or June. Oh my...they kicked,screamed and stomped their feet on how Clinton and Presidential candidate Gore had NO ENERGY POLICY and were fully responsible for prices hitting $1.60 per gallon.

Take gas out of the Strategic Reserve they screamed,lower the Federal fuel tax they shouted,DO SOMETHING CLINTON they shrieked.

Gas goes up .12 cents A FUCKING WEEK around here,now its at $2.30 and climbing. All I hear now from those same screaming REPUKES is silence.....

[cry baby]

10. I'm afrain alright, but not of the terra-ists...

I'm afraid of Chimpy McCokespoon and his congress.

[emulatorloo]

12. It is time to face the fact that Bush was elected for his "Personality"

and "Good Christianity," as manufactured and polished to a lovely luster by Mr. Karl Rove and Miss Karen Hughes.

He was elected in spite of his policies, not because of them.

His supporters can't see beyond the "brush clearing" and "resolve."

[BlueIris]

13. Do you like your party now? n/t

[Morose]

15. STICKERS ON GAS PUMPS

we need bumperstickers that we could slap on the side of gas pumps when we fill up that say

GAS $2.50+ HOW DO YA LIKE BUSH NOW?

Now there's a bit of guerilla action that I might find entertaining.
