 == why republicans are assholes == 

 Republicans are assholes for many reasons. 

 Most recently, Republicans have proven themselves  to be assholes by 
 widely applauding John McCain's vice-presidential pick, who was 
 introduced at the convention  as a ""moose hunter"" who would teach the 
 chef at the Whitehouse how to cook ""moose stew"" who apparently has a 
 lot of foreign policy experience because, in the words of Cindy 
 McCain, ""Alaska is the closest part of the continent to Russia."" 

 (see Cindy profess this at:

 ) 

 Sarah Palin is also an asshole because she believes abortions should 
 be illegal even in the case of rape or incest.  Moreover, she's an 
 asshole because she believes Creationism (you know, the earth was 
 created in 7 days theory) ought to be taught in public schools 
 side-by-side with scientific studies such as ""evolution"".  And 
 recently it's come to light that she's a mega-asshole because as Mayor 
 of Wasilla, Alaska, Palin forced rape victims in court cases to pay 
 for their own forensic tests! 

 (see proof of Palin's rape policy at:

 There are many other reasons why Sarah Palin is an asshole, but 
 ultimately, what's more important than Sarah Palin's status as an 
 asshole, is the fact that John McCain is an asshole for picking Palin 
 to be his running mate. 

 McCain is a hypocritical asshole because he said ""I hate war"" at the 
 Republican National Convention with a straight face (all you assholes 
 saw that, right?)  even though he was recently videotaped  singing 
 ""Bomb Iran"" to the tune of a famous Beach Boys song to a group of 
 veterans at a campaign stop. 

 (see McCain singing ""Bomb Iran"" at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-zoPgv_nYg ) 

 McCain is also an asshole because he pretends on the campaign trail to 
 be a wounded-warrior who will support veterans when they return home 
 from war, but his voting record shows he has less than stellar concern 
 for his fellow warriors.

 But what really gets me is that asshole McCain keeps gloating about 
 how he was right about ""the surge"", even though he was dead-wrong 
 about the war in general!  What an asshole!!  The war should have 
 never been authorized asshole!!  He must think we are all assholes!!! 
 Too stupid to remember we should have never invaded Iraq in the first 
 place when he gloats about a short-lived battle we're ""winning""!  He 
 must think we have already forgotten that the assholes in the 
 Whitehouse lied to all of us about weapons of mass destruction and 
 Iraq's ties to Al queda to get us into the war!   He must have 
 forgotten that he himself was a major advocate of this ill-conceived 
 of war!!! 

 But our misguided Republican borne war of aggression against Iraq is 
 only one of many reasons why Republicans are assholes and I don't want 
 to waste too much time on the obvious!  There are LOTS more reasons 
 why Republicans are assholes!! 

 Republicans are also assholes because they are liars and crooks.  For 
 example, they keep giving tax breaks to the richest Americans 
 (namely, their friends and family) and then they say they're for a 
 ""smaller government""—but that is just as asshole lie!  What these 
 assholes mean is they don't have enough money left over to pay for 
 American schools and American public health care because they gave so 
 many tax breaks to their buddies who own the oil companies!!!!!!  And 
 now these ASSHOLES have the audacity to try to convince the middle 
 class of America (as if we were ALL assholes) that Obama will raise 
 taxes on them, when in fact Obama has said time and time again that he 
 will give the middle class A TAX BREAK while only raising taxes on the 
 richest Americans. 

 (read a NYTimes report about Obama's tax plan, which includes some 
 REPUBLICAN ASSHOLE criticism, here:

 ) 

 The fact is, our Republican asshole leaders (namely Bush and McCain, 
 who voted in favor of Bush's proposals over 90% of the time) have 
 nearly driven this country into the ground with their judgment and 
 policies. If you haven't noticed, we are in the middle of a 
 housing-foreclosure crisis, unemployment rates are skyrocketing, the 
 stock market is in the dumps, we are trillions of dollars in debt …but 
 still these asshole Republic
