Jenksismyhero Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 QUOTE (Jake @ Oct 15, 2012 -> 09:11 AM) I think we can all accept that a disproportionate amount of racists identify as Republicans. It can be funny to see them flaunting their stuff, for sure. I don't find any back and forth beyond that to be constructive I actually don't agree with that. I'll agree to this: more conservatives are traditional racists - KKK, burning cross, bring the white back to white house type stuff. More liberals are nontraditional racists - believing minorities are so dumb/poor/disadvantaged that they can't possible live and survive without our help. Both are equally abhorrent and only one gets called out like it should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just another flip to add to his flop list. (This is a joke obviously.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just strict constructionists. According to Jefferson: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/1531520/posts Periodic revolution, “at least once every 20 years,” was “a medicine necessary for the sound health of government.” Im sure right now Scalia is on board with a revolution.

Soxbadger Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. To be serious, if Obama wins and Republicans want to riot, be my guest. Every day I hope that the welfare states (for a list see http://taxfoundation.org/blog/why-do-some-...ing-not-others) leave, because I am tired of all the free hand outs. For whatever reason, so-called "blue states" tend to be high-income areas that pay the vast majority of federal taxes. Some 84 percent of federal individual income taxes—which account for over 40 percent of federal revenue—are paid by the those in the top 25 percent of the income distribution. The majority of these taxpayers live in wealthy, urban, politically "blue" areas like New York, California, and Massachusetts. Ironically a good porton Romney's electoral votes will come from freeloaders who I subsidize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 60% value is considered a toss-up by RCP. This race was over in september. All Obama had to do was appear like he still cared about being president. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I dont think this has much to do with Obama, it more has to do with Romney convincing his own base that they should actually support him.

StrangeSox Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Jason Thompson, the son of former Governor and Wisconson Senate candidate Tommy Thompson, speaking this morning at a brunch attended RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said that "we have the opportunity to send President Obama back to Chicago -- or Kenya." A woman in attendance then chimed in "we are taking donations for that Kenya trip." man republicans sure are making it easy for me to press my desperate agenda lately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
