Can be kind of depressing though.

43. Also, Howard Dean has already addressed this fear.
Edited on Tue Nov-07-06 12:08 AM by Tigress DEM
The other day he was on and called for respectful behavior from DEMs toward those whose beliefs are different than our own.

Now, it is true we may have to impeach some people and bring others to justice along the way, but Dean is calling for us to do it with the good grace of winners who are winning this country back for all Americans, unlike the previous occupants of the White House and their ilk.

As more and more of the truth about their heinous actions and crimes are reveiled even long time Republican's are abandonning the party and if not voting outright for us at least standing with us against the treason committed against them.

We will see this administration run away to hide from their crimes and the rest of us will be stuck with the bill and the clean up. The more willing hands on for that job, the better.

We have a chance to prove we are the party with the pioneering spirit of cooperation that made this nation spread from sea to shining sea.

13. Not to worry, repugs. Your 'values' will still be intact.
You'll just have to practice them in your own families and churches and not impose them on the rest of us.
I guess that's a bitter pill for authoritarians to swallow.
Tough noogies.

14. What values? Greed? Killing innocent people who did nothing to us?
Corrupt CEO getting millions while average workers struggle to make ends meet, hoping their jobs won't be shipped overseas?

Hypocritical Evangelists resigning for lack of family values?

WHAT FAMILY VALUES WILL BE DESTROYED IF DEMOCRATS GAIN CONTROL OF CONGRESS?


How many republican Congressmen have been forced resigned over corruption and lack of family values? Seems they have destroyed their family values already.

15. and that's a bad thing, how?
Republic values:
1) Discrimination against anybody that is not a straight white protestant male.
2) discrimination against anybody that is not in the top 1% of income earners.
3) Allow big business to run roughshod over: a) the poor & middle class; b) the environment; c) any sort of regulations.
4) Pissing on the rest of the world
5) Putting our nation's reputation in the gutter with policies of rendition, torture, etc.

Edited on Mon Nov-06-06 02:17 PM by NorthernSpy
When conservatives can't behave, they blame everyone but themselves. Nothing's ever their fault. The rest of us tempted them to lie, cheat, steal, kill, molest, pop pills, and sleep around by creating a culture hostile to "values". As always, we're the devil, and we made them do it.

:eyes:


Also, nice little bit of symbolism in the brown hand clapped over the freckled white girl's mouth. I suspect that that picture -- and everything it invokes and evokes -- is the real point of the leaflet; the text is just boilerplate.

31. The text on the flip side of this is key. Using REAGAN as their example of values
since anyone after that was so obviously corrupt and hypocritical. That's pretty pathetic, yet comical in a sad sort of way.



-Had to get a jab at Pelosi in there. I don't see how that is going to work since most people don't know who she is or that she will become Speaker.

-Nope, we don't share their values and we're damn proud of it.

-Ooooooh... ACLU and moveon.org. What a scary thought that there are organizations out there fighting for everyone's civil rights and trying to stop the fascist takeover of our country. I want my mommy!

-At least they aren't asking to continue the legacy of BushCo. They're not stupid enough to let people know it's going to be more of the same. How sad that they have to reach back that far to find someone to use as an example.

Plus, what a blatant attempt of using racism and rape to scare people into voting Republican.

41. It isn't a black person's hand BTW, it's a dirty hand.
Now, figuratively speaking, ain't NOBODY's hands dirtier than the GOP's.

But this seems to be representing dirty, uncooth hands. The hands of a person accustomed to WORK, as in manual labor. In olden times, the peasants were called the "unwashed masses".

In the olden days, the rich were ruling with great greed and vigor and people hid in the forest to waylay them and seperate them from their unfairly obtained money.

These repukes VALUE their money and unionizing and people voting the bums out of office may mean they and their money shall soon be parted once the war crimes trials begin and we confiscate all their worldly possessions to repay the treasury that they robbed blind.

Robin Hood, Welcome back to Sherwood!!

48. In light of recent events. It was probably a HUGE mistake for them to mention values.
Beyond that this is just more of the same. I don't think America believes in the boogeyman anymore. Maybe the RNC didn't get the memo.

49. It is a racist ad, plain and simple...
...note the "colored" male hand over the white female mouth, and the wide, green-eyed horror of the woman: the intimation is that the female in the picture is about to be assaulted in some manner (probably sexually), and that "If Democrats Gain Control of Congress" such things will be standard fare in America: "Our Values Will Be Destroyed!"

It is a desperate, flailing, last-minute appeal to blatant racism by the GOP, and is as disgusting as it is disingenuous & false on so many levels.

I highly doubt it will work other than among such idiot cretinous specimens who are already going to vote Republican.

'our values' with 'Family Values'? When of course it is 'our values' that is attacking 'Family Values'. Quite Orwellian, isn't it?

The picture says to me : 'Shut up Bitch, and vote against yourself'.
