Yes! Yes!
Paranoid. How could I forget that one?
"Gap-toothed, in-bred paranoids, who never visit the dentist, and have IQ's lower than their age!"
How'm I doin'?

You could have dropped a "clinging" reference as well. You should probably work in a racist reference too. No good conservative stereotype is complete without it.

There are many I may have missed. I tried to avoid the "clinging" reference because the libtards might think it was a reference to "dingleberries", and would demand free napkins:

Because it targets one person and laws targeting one person are generally unconstitutional. =Bob It would appear to target one person, but in reality there should always have been such a law. There is a law - it's called the Constitution. If you think there's a problem you're welcome to file suit. =Bob

I challenge any far right winger on here.... that if they were a professor.... that they would go ahead and give an "F" to a student if they knew they were packing!! I would have that student outgunned so he would get what he earned. I challenge a leftie to give an "F" under any circumstances. They think being present should rate at least a "D". If you'd ever attended college maybe you would have been given an "F". Since you didn't we'll never know. =Bob

You're wrong. No good modern republican description is complete without it. As for true conservatives, these stereotypes are mostly false. You're deluding yourself if you think anybody on the left draws a distinction between the two. I'd be interested if you could name a conservative that's not a Republican, other than yourself of course.

There is a law - it's called the Constitution. If you think there's a problem you're welcome to file suit. =Bob I don't know where it's found in the constitution. Could you tell me where it is? No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.It is not the job of a state legislature to determine the Constitution's intent - that's what the courts are for. As an example, the Arizona law allows a circumcision certificate to be proof of citizenship. Do you think that's a proper interpretation of the above clause? Who knows, because the courts have never ruled on an interpretation and it has changed more than once due to Congressional action. In order to make the birthers' argument, the courts would have to rule that the interpretation in effect in 1961 was constitutional and that has not been done because nobody has litigated on that basis. =Bob

Yep, Republican Party has warts. Lots of 'em. No doubt about it.
Still...
Own It
Although I am not a Democrat or a Republican, I used to understand why other people would choose to be one or the other. And I can still understand how some people can be Republicans, but it is beyond my comprehension how anyone could still be a Democrat in Wisconsin in the age of YouTube.
The Democrats’ response to losing an election here has been appalling; disgraceful conduct documented with phone cameras for the whole world to see Democrat rallies and protests have been marked by profanity, intimidation, death threats, vandalism, trespassing on private residences, anti-American rhetoric, boycotts of neutral businesses, extortion, and fraud.
My dear Democrat friends, that is not what democracy looks like; it is what Democrats look like. Your Party has become vile, disgraceful, and disgusting and you have lived long enough in denial of what and who you have become.
Own it.
It’s not just the mob scenes that disgust. Perhaps the most dishonest political ad in history was run by Democrats in a supposedly non-partisan Supreme Court race, exploiting the victim of child abuse for political gain. Own it, Party of the children.
Your Democrat legislators wore union t-shirts on the floor of the assembly while in session; shouting and throwing things and threatening to kill a female Republican lawmaker. This is how you treat women who think for themselves. Own it, Party of women.
Your public sector unions – firefighters and teachers - organized a campaign to drown out yesterday’s taxpayer rally on the steps of the Capitol building You exist now only to deprive others of their right to be heard; and your idea of civil is dropping F-bombs at a child who came to hear Sarah Palin speak. You have embraced disgrace – so own it, Party of civil rights.
You booed the national anthem. Read that again, friends; take a moment to reflect fully upon the depths to which your Democrat party has sunk, and then OWN IT.
On that same day the office of a recall drive against one of the 14 AWOL Democrat Senators was burglarized with computers and petitions stolen – just like Nixon in 1972. You also threatened to blow up a radio station over content you don’t like. You were busy little fascist criminals on Saturday - own it, Nixonites.
If these are just isolated examples of people acting out, then show me where your Party leaders have denounced them. Who have you expelled from your Party for the shame they have brought to it? And who is your Ron Paul, your conscience who calls you out when you have strayed from your core values - Charlie Rangel?
Your Democrat State Senator Lena Taylor recently got herself on TV to rant against some $142 million of tax breaks Governor Walker has given to his cronies, but when asked, she could not name one. Your comprehensive plan to balance the budget and avoid default is to chant “Fox Lies!” This is the depth of your intellectual curiosity and the extent of your economic literacy. Own it.
Yours is the party that extended our military stay in Iraq, increased our commitment in Afghanistan, spread that war into Pakistan and Yemen, and started another in Libya. When it was Bush dropping the bombs, you came to us Libertarians and begged us to join you to stop him; haven’t seen you around now that is your guy killing little brown people. He lies to you and you love him for it. Own that.
What does it take for you decent Democrats - and I know there are many of you who will read this - to walk away from a Party that has already abandoned the principles that attracted you to it in the first place? How much of your pride are you still willing to forfeit to a Party that has none? What is your last straw – does blowing an angry horn at a downs-syndrome person for waving a flag not do it for you?
It’s your mirror you need to look in every day, not mine. It was a far less obnoxious abandonment of principle that led me to leave the GOP many years ago. It is true that I get along better with them than with Democrats as a rule; that rule is that they don’t send me death threats when I write something they don’t like.
Nearly a third of the American electorate is now non-affiliated with either of the two major Parties; each Democrat/socialist/union rally drives more of you into our camp. You Democrats do not persuade us with temper tantrums, threats, profane personal attacks, and all manner of judicial chicanery. I don’t even know what you stand for anymore; I don’t speak drum.
Yours was once the Party of Kennedy; it is now the Party that boos the national anthem. Own that – and then walk away. You will feel better about yourself, and you might just save your Party from the hooligans who have run it into disrepute.by Dr Tim Nerenz

I suspect quite a few would be Libertarians if it were a viable party. =Bob If they all voted Libertarian, then it'd probably be a viable party. (Kinda like back in the day when John Anderson ran against reagan and Carter.) However, I think most of us Republicans (who left when it become today's republican party) would just prefer it the way it used to be. The basic platform of the real Republican party was: a. LEAVE ME ALONE in every area of my life as long as it doesn't interfere with others' ability to pursue happiness. b. Keep taxes as low as possible. c. Keep government as small as possible but as big as necessary. d. Keep the military as small as possible but as big as necessary. e. Have some compassion for the poor without providing a disincentive for work, initiative, and personal responsibitly. Now, if you don't believe abortion should be illegal--- even if you are totally opposed to it---you aren't eligible for membership in the republican party. If you don't believe that Bible study belongs in science classrooms, you aren't eligible for membership in the republican party. Go ahead and count me out of that $#!+. Actually, that' more the Reagan's platform (well, except for the part about the military). The platform I grew up around was one of fiscal responsibility which meant you raised taxes when it was necessary and you lowered them when it wasn't. Keeping taxes as low as possible came along with Reagan. Let's keep in mind what the rich were paying while Eisenhower was in office. The Republican Party today engages in a shell game - constantly cut taxes for the rich while paying lip service to cutting the deficit. In short, it is no longer the party of fiscal responsibility anymore than the Democratic Party is. Hell, the oil companies are making record profits and those bozos still aren't willing to get rid of the 4 billion a year we pay them in subsidies. This is all we've got left - total lock on the things that made our country great. We should be investing in infrastructure up one side and done the other but the Democrats don't have the political will and the Republicans are too worried about giving tax breaks to their masters to even consider such things. =Bob
