Twenty signs that you might be a Bush Supporter
Edited on Fri Jul-14-06 08:29 AM by Ian_rd
Friends, you might be concerned that you are afflicted with Bush Support. We here at the Bush Support Rehabilitation Clinic have assembled twenty indicators of this degenerative mental illness. If you find yourself agreeing with a majority of these indicators, please seek help as soon as possible. And remember, if you don't get help with us, please, get help somewhere.

1. You believe that leaking the CIA status of Valerie Plame, a "NOC" working on nuclear proliferation issues, was a heroic act, while you believe that the publishing of Bush's SWIFT monitoring activities by the New York Times was treason, eventhough it was a matter of public record.

2. You believe that you will stop loving your husband or wife and get a divorce if the two gay dudes down the street are allowed to get married.

3. You have no problem with voting machines being made by private corporations owned and operated by Bush supporters who claim that their programming code may not be inspected by anyone, make it impossible to perform recounts, operate elections in such a way that they can be manipulated while leaving no evidence whatsoever, and that we should all just "trust them."

4. You believe that the Jack Abramoff scandal is a bipartisan controversy.

5. You believe that Mexicans are to blame for stealing your jobs when corporations export hundreds of thousands of manufacturing, textile, and service jobs to Mexico, South America, China, Taiwan, and India.

6. You believe that "everyone" thought Saddam had WMD prior to the Iraq War.

7. You believe that one day we will find the last terrorist on earth and kill them.

8. You believe that in a time of war, the President may search and seize without a warrant, may deprive persons of life and liberty without due process of law, may detain persons indefinitely without trial or counsel, and keep all these actions away from the review of Congress and the Judiciary.

9. You earn the minimum wage and applaud Republicans for rejecting proposals to raise it.

10. You blame high gas prices on environmentalists.

11. You think President Bush should invade Iran, a country nearly four times the size and population of Iraq.

12. You think NAFTA was good for America eventhough you haven't really noticed cheaper prices for cars or other products made in Mexico.

13. Even though men have been released from Guantanamo Bay with no charges against them, you think everyone in Guantanamo Bay is a terrorist who should stay there forever without trial.

14. You think the best way to improve public schools is to reduce their funding.

15. You think Creationism is science.

16. You think liberals are responsible for all the troubles in the United States when all three branches of government are controlled by conservative Republicans, as is our economy.

17. You believe our nation's forefathers desired to establish a Christian nation, but accidentally left that part out of the Constitution, and didn't really mean that part about not "respecting an establishment of religion."

18. You think American soldiers have died throughout our history to protect a colorful piece of rectangular cloth, and not the rights it symbolizes.

19. You can't locate Iraq on a world map.

And perhaps the most serious indicator:

20. You believe that the violence in the Middle East is the will of God acting though George W. Bush, His most cherished vessel, and that the turmoil portends the coming End Times, when you and other Bush Supporters will vanish and ascend to Heaven while the Anti-Christ establishes a worldwide peace back on earth.

6. #10 gets me every time from the freeptards...
...Seriously. They elected an oilman, from a family of oilmen, associated with oilmen, who packed his staff and advisers with people that are somehow associated with the oil business.

NOW they are surprised that gas is over 3.00 a gallon? :wtf:

Oh, K&R, excellent!

the Republicans idea of diversity is to put two men from different oil companies on the same ticket.

18. From Saturday Night Live
(paraphrasing the "Weekend Update" gals):

A recent Pew poll found that 69% of Americans think President Bush is doing a poor job on the Iraq War.

The other 31% believe Adam and Eve rode a dinosaur to church.

21. about #6
"You believe that "everyone" thought Saddam had WMD prior to the Iraq War."

I've had online discussions ( well, 'discussions' you know ) with rightwingers, back in 2003. They were convinced that Saddam had WMD. Even though they couldn't provide anything substantial, except rethoric. Okay. Fine. They believed their spindoctor media, I believed the lack of any substantial facts. Whatever.


And at some point, they also threw that everybody thought Saddam had WMD. How delusional can one get?

Is this the rightwing truth? -> tell a lie 5 times, and it becomes the truth?
